Scottish Blethers
In Scotland, when friends get together they blether. When those friends happen to be Scottish Blue Badge Tourist Guides you can be sure that the country they are so passionate about will be right at the heart of their discussions. Contemporary and historical; culinary and cultural; reminiscence and anecdote - from accommodation to zoos, the chat will range across the entire alphabet of topics and issues that are live and happening in Scotland right now. We hope that you’ll join us - there’s nothing to beat a right good blether!

Super Enjoyable!
Descriptive vignettes with a cultural angle which make them come alive: Scottish language, places, stories about events, childhood memories, bits of history. One of my favorite podcasts. Thank you!

My grandmother emigrated to Canada from Scotland at 13 (1913). As a child I didn’t care for her accent. Now many, many years later, I relish it. I also appreciate the chats about Scottish history, culture, and the every day human notes.
