• Why are there SO MANY gardening books?

  James Alexander-Sinclair and Joe Swift open the library doors to explore why gardeners love books so much. From Gertrude Jekyll and Vita Sackville-West to Monty Don and the rise of influencer-authors, they ask: are we learning anything new, or just buying prettier covers? Expect nostalgia, hot takes on self-publishing, and their personal picks for books that actually changed the game. Follow, rate and subscribe on YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

• Question Time: Gardening Style

  It’s your turn! Listeners send in their best, worst, and weirdest gardening questions as James and Joe open the postbag for a bumper Question Time special. From compost conundrums to the curse of the golden gnome, nothing is off-limits. Who’ll win “Jekyll” – the coveted prize gnome – and will any questions be so bad they get binned? A chaotic, hilarious, and oddly educational finale to the season. Follow, rate and subscribe on YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

• Has social media ruined gardening?

  James and Joe scroll through the digital garden to ask: has social media helped or harmed how we grow? They dig into the positives – inspiration, access, community – before tackling the pitfalls of fake perfection, fast trends, and the “gardenfluencer” effect. From Instagram-worthy borders to real soil under the nails, it’s a sharp, funny look at how the online world shapes our green ones. AND - James does the most challenging and entertaining accent of all time. It’s near the end, so don’t miss it!  Follow, rate and subscribe on YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.
