The Visitors Chair [A Long Stop: Pete Rogers]

Occupation: A creator of things and cog in the machine

Location: Mostly Wrexham

Intro: I do my best to have a new challenge every few weeks or so, I’m host and creator of podcast Backyard Beasts, wildlife filmmaker, manager of a coworking space, founder of The Not So Secret Santa Project, Co -Director of hip hop company Larynx Entertainment and possibly some stuff I have forgotten!

Do you have a favourite dinner?

This is a bit of a cheat as technically it’s multiple dinners but I am going to say curry due to the fact you can have so many varieties of it, personally the spicier the better for me

Can you suggest any handy household tips?

I have been making an effort to have more ‘wild’ areas in the garden, humans tend to like really neat clean looking spaces but for wildlife to thrive they need some messy grass, piles of wood or rocks to hide under. So my tip is to make a mess!

Do you have a favourite celebrity chef or home & lifestyle influencer?

It’s an obvious answer and a lot of people don’t like him but I do think that what Jamie Oliver has done and how passionately he fights to give people access to affordable and healthy food is pretty admirable

What does home mean to you?

Comfort, in both a spiritual and a material sense

How do you like to spend time aside from home/family?

I’ve been making a lot of short nature documentaries recently and I ran a charitable project for kids during Christmas, I suppose I just like taking on new challenges and seeing what I can learn from them, whether I technically succeed at them or not

Do you have a favourite desert?

Cover anything in chocolate and I think it will qualify as my new favourite dessert

Can you name one item you couldn’t live without?

I stared this by cheating so I will end by cheating, this is two items. Definitely a notepad and a pen. My mind is so unpredictable, I can go days without an original thought or I can be trying to hold onto ten at once out of nowhere. So a pen and a pad have become pretty invaluable.

Thank you Pete! 🤎
