Brutha Voodoo (also known as Aron Smith) joins the Shaping The North East podcast this week to talk about poetry, community radio, local events and the people helping shape Aberdeen’s creative scene.

In this episode, we explore Aron’s journey with poetry, his involvement in poetry events across the North East of Scotland, his passion for community radio, and the importance of creating stronger connections between local venues, performers, event organisers and audiences in Aberdeen. We also get into Aron's love of all things geeky, including his radio show The Geek Grotto, as well as the challenges facing Aberdeen’s creative community and why better promotion and sharing of local events could make it easier for people to discover what is happening across the city.

If you're interested in Aberdeen's creative scene, Scottish poetry, community radio, local events, independent artists or the people working to build a stronger cultural community in the North East of Scotland, this conversation offers an insight into the people and ideas helping to shape the region.
