Welcome back to Spero: Between the Lines!

This week we are joined by Margo Sautelle to take us between the lines on the relationship between Hong Kong and China, and the future of this connection. Plus, Margo talks us through the significance of tea houses in Chinese society, drawn from her conversation with James Grayland and Wan Ling, a couple who bonded over their shared ambition to open a tea house!

Welcome back to Spero: Between the Lines!

This week we are switching things up! Regular Between the Lines host Milly Harrison sat on the other side of the table, joining guest host Basil Sikaulu to share her insights on Jamaica. She took us between the lines on Jamaica’s I-tal culture and the ability to find rebellion within food, and deconstructed some common misgivings about the Maroon population of Jamaica. Milly also gave us a deeper look into Jamaica’s foreign policy and the country's place on the world stage.
