The Podcast Pros are back to investigate one of the many things looted by the British Empire. This particular item has four legs and a mop-like furry body - it’s the Pekingese dog!  Their guide? Stuff the British Stole, from ABC and CBC podcasts.

The episode in question is called “Best.Named.Dog.Ever.” It covers the British looting of dogs and other, inanimate, cultural artifacts from the Chinese during the Opium Wars. How did the conflict start? What are the lasting cultural impacts? How did these tiny dogs make their way from China to the UK?

The Podcast Book Club team sat down to discuss sound design, story editing in production, and the importance of picking the right guests, especially when you’re discussing other cultures on your podcast.

So podcast fans, ready to explore and review a new series?

This episode is hosted by podcast production manager Elizabeth Amos, who is joined by podcast producers Zoe Anderson and Jackie Lamport, and audio engineer Alex Bennett.
