Season 1 features Molly Parkin, Cosey Fanni Tutti, Pauline Black and more; Season 2 stars the likes of Judy Collins, Gee Vaucher, Zandra Rhodes and P.P. Arnold. In 2020, The Last Bohemians published a lockdown special with performance artist Marina Abramović. The Last Bohemians has been a podcast of the week in the Guardian, Observer New Review, The Financial Times and on Radio 4. In January 2022, it was featured in the New Yorker (https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2022/01/03/does-wisdom-really-come-from-experience) . It won silver in the Best New Podcast category at the British Podcast Awards 2020 and was a finalist for Grassroots Production Award at the 2021 Audio Production Awards.
