Making a Splash with Amber Butchart

Welcome to Making a Splash: the arts and culture podcast that celebrates swimming and the sea. Host Amber Butchart is a keen but incredibly unaccomplished sea swimmer, who wants to investigate how swimming and the ocean inspire art, literature, design and culture.

Covering areas including myth & folklore, health & wellness, pop culture, literature, art & design, environment & sustainability and natural history, this is the podcast for everyone who has an affinity with water.

Guests range from circus performers to curators, designers, historians, scientists and writers, who discuss how the sea inspires their work, and share their stories of swimming and open water, including how it impacts their mind and body.

So whether you love to swim or you’re a thalassophile who’s never so much as dipped a toe in the ocean, this is the podcast for you.
