Go eagle spotting with Hamza Yassin, strolling on the beach with Jordan Stephens and walking in the woods with Charlotte Church. And hear remarkable stories, like the lady who flew over the Russian tundra to save endangered swans, the Londoners who turned birdwatching into a global movement and the last drystone waller in Wales.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-16T10:20:55.556134+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-life-more-wild-5504428"},"episode":{"title":"Tim Key on maybe being a ghost and definitely being a pigeon, but not knowing why","slug":"tim-key-on-maybe-being-a-ghost-and-definitely-being-a-pigeon-but-not-knowing-why","published_at":"2025-12-18T14:25:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-life-more-wild-5504428/tim-key-on-maybe-being-a-ghost-and-definitely-being-a-pigeon-but-not-knowing-why","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-life-more-wild-5504428","url":"https://www.canopyandstars.co.uk/a-life-more-wild-podcast/series-five/episode-10-tim-key","audio_url":"https://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/pdst.fm/e/traffic.megaphone.fm/ESL7457975454.mp3","summary":"Edinburgh’s Fringe Festival has always been the centre of Tim Key’s professional life. For over 20 years, he’s been bringing shows to the city, honing his craft in the intensity of month-long runs. Every time he visits, he climbs Arthur’s Seat, so while he was in town for some Christmas gigs, we joined him on the ascent. He talks about the city’s place in his heart, the unfortunate year of 2002, being ignored in favour of Mark Watson and not getting any clarity on why he spent almost all his screen time in Bong Joon Ho’s film Mickey 17 dressed as a pigeon. A Life More Wild is an 18Sixty production, brought to you by Canopy & Stars. Production by Clarissa Maycock. Our theme music is by Billie Marten.","meta_description":"Edinburgh’s Fringe Festival has always been the centre of Tim Key’s professional life.
