  • Wonderful Podcast

    Really enjoyed this after a Banksy popped up beside me in Walthamstow, had one one outside my office in Bristol also, many moons ago.

    This podcast was so much more engaging than I expected, the interviewer was great and Steph is such a wise and interesting person, I hope to visit her gallery next time I go to Hastings.

    Look forward to hearing new episodes coming along in time.

    I’m not a fan of tagging, so I discourage support of graffiti in general, as one encourages the other - that said I love banksys work. Anyway, my review may be somewhat bias. My main criticism of this podcast is the number of disclaimers and caveats results in hardly any of it being believable. The style is ok, but not a lot of substance. I’m 5 episodes in and may adjust this rating if I persist

    I quite like the way we hear from people that knew Banksy or just the hidden stories behind Banksy. The presenters are entertaining, and they disclaim it isn’t meant to be a serious documentary, so I don’t think that people should be so judgemental! Thanks for creating it x
