Pause. And Rewind...

By: Neil Hudson-Basing
  • Summary

  • I’m Neil (he/him) - host of my new podcast, Pause. And Rewind… I’ll be chatting to change makers, thought leaders & role models who all share a common goal. They’re striving to make the world a more inclusive place. And let’s face, we need it!


    Each guest has a unique story when it comes to doing their thing. We often know who people are in the now. But how much do we really know about them?


    Pause. And Rewind… takes a moment to explore the experiences in my guests’ lives that led them to where & who they are now. Cos’ everyone loves an origin story!


    We’ll dive into tales, anecdotes and what makes our guests tick. So, are you ready to Pause. And Rewind… ?

  • Pause. And Rewind... with Katya Veleva | Driven Balkan Geek
    Jul 3 2024
    Growing up in Eastern Europe after the fall of Communism is a huge part of Katya Veleva's (they/them) story and they share how this wasn't easy - yet it's definitely not something that has defined them. In contrast to the black & white photos in their memory that capture this period in time, Katya is a burst of colour & energy.

    Katya is a Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Consultant with a solid background in architecture, construction and digital health programmes - and I loved hearing about their transition between careers to what they're doing so brilliantly now!

    A deep understanding and knowledge with creativity and communication skills in abundance shine through, both in Katya's professional role and the way they express themself, through their love of art and creating. 'Driven Balkan Geek' are the three words Katya uses to describe themselves & their origin story - listen in on this touching conversation as we delve into Katya's formative years, finding freedom and the immense impact their mum has had on who they are. Enjoy!

  • Pause. And Rewind... with Dame Kelly Holmes | Go-Getter. Resilient. Respectful. Unique.
    Jun 26 2024

    She's been a household name for over three & a half decades so it was a real privilege to have Col. Dame Kelly Holmes MBE as a guest on 'Pause. And Rewind...'

    I've actually met Kelly (she/her) a few times over the last year & a half and got to dance in the parade with her at Brighton Pride in torrential rain whilst marching for the #transpeoplearelovedcampaign and even got to have a sunny run with her along the beachfront. Yes she's very fast, no I could not keep up.

    We all know her as a gold medal scoring Olympian but Kelly has achieved so much more than that, from her charitable work through to her public speaking, challenges and love of community - which has become fundamental to how she is showing up for the LGBTQ+ community.

    She radiates warmth, energy & a free spirit. And if you've been following Kelly since her coming out story, you'll get a sense of why and it was gorgeous chatting to her about how the Kelly we see now is the happiest, most authentic she's ever felt. Listen in and enjoy.

    Psssssst. Go grab a copy of her new book Unique. we only mention it a few times in the episode - PLUG PLUG PLUG!

  • Pause. And Rewind... with Jamie Wareham | Tenacious, Enduring, Joyful
    Jun 19 2024

    If you aren't subscribed to Queer AF, then please go subscribe right now! It's an award-winning queer-led platform packed with queer news and queer stories written by queer creatives. Yes, it really is Queer AF and Jamie Wareham (he/him), its Founder is unapologetic AF about it (which I love!).

    I've had the absolute pleasure of working with Jamie over the last few months with Trans+ History Week and its success is partly due to Jamie's tendency to think big & queer and challenge himself. It also demonstrates his love for the queer community.

    Jamie is passionate about his not-so-secret queer agenda - transforming the media industry and shifting the narrative on being queer in the UK. But what led to him launching Queer AF? That's what I wanted to know.

    Jamie's origin story reveals so much and it was great to explore how this quiet kid, that was so desperate to fly under the radar, found his voice and skills and now uses it loudly and proudly. We explore the severe health incident which caused a huge life setback though to a cinema trip that shaped him massively, his upcoming move to Margate and feeling sexy.

    I love the Queer AF tagline 'We are QueerAF... and so are you'. Hell yeh - enjoy!

Thought-Provoking Conversations with Interesting People

I like Neil's style of interviewing - ask good questions and let the guest answer them.

It's difficult to balance the light-hearted and heavy topics, but Neil makes it look easy.

I went through all the emotions while I listened to Jude Guaitamacchi
