We had the pleasure of meeting Lakhile at the podcast’s launch party on Monday, and his energy and enthusiasm was absolutely contagious. His performance of his own song, Made it Through i.mtr.cool/hwzvaabnos had the whole room clapping and singing!

It’s been a week since the Squar3roots podcast launch party and I think Rosie has just about recovered! It was a lovely event which invited past and future podcast hosts to celebrate the launch of the podcast.
