Radio Sohemia

The Sohemian Society

Radio Sohemia provides recordings of Q-and-As and talks hosted by the London-based Sohemian Society as well as interviews that aren’t staged in front of an audience. Founded in 2003, the Society originally focused on Soho bohemia, hence its name, but it has since widened its focus. Past guests range from the former Home Secretary Alan Johnson to the hairdresser-turned-memoirist Suzi Ronson, who created David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust hairstyle. The podcast's continuity announcer is Miles Cholmondley-Warner, best-known for the spoof public information films that he presented with Harry Enfield.
