We're incredibly happy to welcome Victor to Wolfsong! As you may know, we sadly lost our beloved Irish Setter Hugo to cancer early this year and both the office and life in general hasn't been the same without him. Hugo can never be replaced, but we're thrilled his nephew Victor has found his forever home with us. He's already taking a great interest in Wolfsong manuscripts (in a not entirely helpful way!) and has made himself very comfortable on the office sofa. We're looking forward to many, many years of Victor sitting by our side and bringing joy to the team.
Intoxicating History - Henry Jeffreys & Tom Parker-Bowles
We're delighted to announce the launch of Intoxicating History, a brand-new podcast series that uncorks the history of alcohol and the alcohol that shaped history. Each week, award-winning authors and raconteurs Henry Jeffreys and Tom Parker-Bowles will be decanting and discussing the stories behind some of the world's most popular beverages. Was champagne really invented by a blind French monk? Did vodka-politics contribute to the Russian Revolution? Was Hogarth part of an anti-gin conspiracy? Did the Ancient Greeks invent drinking games? To find out the answers to these questions and much more besides, be sure to tune in to this warm and witty 20-part series of rich storytelling blended with Henry and Tom's expert tasting notes. Intoxicating History is brought to you by the team that made the global TV series The Wine Show and is sponsored by Taylor's Port. Episode 1 is available from December 5th 2024.
