Lockdown Diaries

Kerning Cultures Network
About this episode

All of our lives have changed. In this unprecedented time, we wanted to make something to reflect this moment. So today, our Kerning Cultures quarantine special: stories of staying at home, lockdowns from history, creative ways of escaping boredom... and for everybody's sanity, a few things that have nothing to do with the coronavirus.

You can hear Majd's radio show, Radio Al Hay, at yamakan.place/beirut.

Kerning Cultures is a Kerning Cultures Network production. Support this podcast on patreon.com/kerningcultures for as little as $1 a month.

 


Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
