Welcome back to the Deepdale Podcast, our magazine programme about North Norfolk. It’s September 2005, there's a blue sky, it’s a beautiful, beautiful day.

In this episode, Jason has three lovely chats, with some musicians and some wildlife enthusiasts.

Steve and Sam from the Brancaster Staithe Sea Shanty Festival chat about the festival this coming weekend, when the whole of Brancaster Staithe and Burnham Deepdale are filled with shanty bands of all shapes and sizes, singing their hearts out in aid of charity. There are six venues, including The Jolly Sailors, White Horse, Marshside, Village Hall, St Mary’s Church and our Brick Barn at Deepdale Camping & Rooms.

Cole and Joseph from the India Electric Co, join Jason for a chat ahead of their gig at Deepdale Camping & Rooms on Saturday 27th September. They played at the Deepdale Festival 2023, and went down an absolute storm on the Sunday night. Cole joined Jason back in August 2023 on the podcast, so you may have heard him before, but since then the gents have a new album and have been busy with a whole host of projects.

And the third chat is with Lucy and Paul from RSPB Titchwell Marsh Nature Reserve. It's a fabulous place, not far from Deepdale, just a couple of villages away. A haven for wildlife and a key site in this beautiful part of the world, where you can see a huge range of habitats in this one place. Spend a few hours walking around and investigating. They run a whole series of events through the year for both those new to birdwatching and those with much more experience.

Thank you so much listening to the Deepdale podcast, we really enjoy putting this show together. Please do leave a review on your favourite podcast app or directory, it really helps other people find us, and please do tell your family and friends about us too.

This will be the last podcast for the next couple of months, Jason will be back with Chris chatting about their 12 albums for Christmas, as they normally do in the December episode.

They so enjoy putting together this magazine programme about the beautiful north Norfolk coast and are glad you enjoy listening to it.

See you again in December, in the meantime, if you need to fill your listening ears with more of the beautiful North Norfolk Coast, then do listen back to the back catalogue. Chats with a huge range of really interesting people, who know this beautiful part of the world so well.

Welcome to the June 2025 episode of the Deepdale Podcast, our magazine programme about North Norfolk. This month, Jason continues to meet fascinating members of the North Norfolk community. He chats with Nicky King, the coxswain of Wells-next-the-Sea RNLI, Iona Lane a musician inspired by the natural world who's playing a gig at Deepdale on 21st June, and Rosie Newport, a local artisan and passionate wild swimmer.

As June is such a lovely month on the North Norfolk Coast, hopefully you’ll take inspiration from Norfolk Wildlife Trust's 30 Days Wild and fit in some wildlife enjoyment. All three of the chats this month are with people who love the landscape, so naturally the conversation turns to enjoying the space, big skies and coastline that we have in abundance here. If you are looking for reasons to visit North Norfolk, then you’ll find a huge list of North Norfolk and West Norfolk events on our website, and we are constantly adding to the listings, you can also add yours.

What do you get when you put five artists, a bird watcher, a musician and a farmer in the same room … an episode of the Deepdale Podcast of course. It’s May 2025, and this is the Deepdale Podcast, our magazine programme about beautiful North Norfolk.

In this episode Jason chats with Tobias ben Jacob about his upcoming gig at Deepdale on 17th May. Five artists taking part in North Norfolk Open Studios tell us more about this amazing local arts event from 24th May to 8th June. Oli from One Stop Nature Shop gives us a wildlife update. And Jason's sister Anna updates us about Open Farm Sunday on 1st June at Deepdale Farm.

We are constantly adding to the listings, and there is everything from cookery courses to street food, exhibitions to theatre, motoring pageants to wildlife events. And May is a fabulous time of the year to enjoy North Norfolk. Our beaches are stunning in the sunshine and relatively quiet (except for the bank holidays). The wildlife is loving the longer days. And you can’t beat a cold drink in a pub garden under blue skies.
