It was an orange and we had no idea what to do with it

Update: 2020-03-06

Description

Meg and Sara interview Errin Hussey, Archivist for the Henry Moore Institute and Leeds Museums and Galleries.

Errin spills the beans on what archives actually are: how they're stored, how you should hold them and what happens when the thing you're archiving is actually an orange.

Find out about Bruce Springsteen's archive, what happened with a packet of biscuits in 1960 and how to pronounce Pearl Jam correctly...
