Yes Cowal Scottish Independence Podcast

An afternoon of live performances took place at the Roxbury Central Festival Fringe venue in Edinburgh this June. The event was created by Australian New Scot Jasmine Lindemann and was inspired by the contribution that the National Collective made to the 2014 independence campaign. The Indypodcast team were invited along to record the event and we had a  thoroughly enjoyable afternoon.  This week's podcast starts with an interview with Jasmine, who shares her refreshing and positive perspective on Scotland with the eyes of a newcomer.   We then showcase the performances from the event.  Performers were: Poet Myra Ross reads some of her poems on the theme of social justice and independence. Author Cathy McSporran reads an excerpt from her novel Cold City in which she imagines two parallel but very different fates for Scotland Glasgow based theatre group Action Theatre Scotland perform a scene from their play Alba, which has just finished a run at the Gilded Balloon as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
