Podcast
Listen to the latest from the Countryfile Magazine team as we bring you the stories behind the magazine features plus new ideas on places to visit every month.
Each podcast is packed with exclusive content, including interviews with the Countryfile presenters. Matt Baker talks about his life growing up on a farm and the unusual methods he used to train his sheepdog Meg while we go on a walk with Jules Hudson as he uncovers the prehistoric landscape of Pembrokeshire’s Preseli Hills.
But the real stars of the podcast are the people we meet while writing for the magazine – the wassail king who draws us into the weird and wonderful world of this New Year tradition, the fly fishing expert who reveals the best spots to cast your line and the witch of Stratford-upon-Avon, who gives us a spooky insight into rural witchcraft today.
