is exceptional quality and there's actually a huge amount that people may not realize needs to go into trying to make sure that the thing in your bottle and we now have huge beer festivals and craft day and you know there's a real wonderful culture around britain this country but it's also about making sure that the drink that people drink when it's not spirits coming out of a bottle but the drink that goes through your machines because they are machines is exceptional by particularly trying not to stress the beer out for instance by making the journey quite short voice-verified

Radical · Last Call for the Local: Are Old Pubs the Solution to Modern Crises? (Oisín Rogers) · 25 Jun 2026 podcast

This BBC podcast is supported by ads outside the UK.

Those of you who've been listening to Radical for a while will know that one of our great interests on this show is social mobility. matched

That basic sense that it just feels instinctively wrong that if you're born into a poor family, your chances of really fulfilling yourself in life are significantly lower than if you're born into a rich family. matched

But that basic sense of injustice that you shouldn't be held back, your destination is matched

shouldn't be held back or determined by your origins is something i think most people can relate to and one person who's trying to do something about it is coming on this podcast and we would love to get your questions for her she is sophie pender she is the founder of the 93 club matched

And that is a network that's challenging one of Britain's most entrenched advantages, which is private schools. matched
