There’s nothing quite like the buzz of recording a brand-new podcast, and our recent session at the Wellcome Trust Offices—right across from London Euston—was no exception! The modern, professional, and welcoming atmosphere of the space provided the perfect setting for the pilot episode of OKRE’s upcoming podcast, That’s Me On Screen.
Bringing the Conversation to Life
At the heart of the show is an exploration of how film and television shape our identities, and for the first episode, we were lucky to have an incredible lineup of guests. Hosted by the brilliant Evelyn Mok, the conversation flowed effortlessly as she sat down with Rehemea and Jenna to discuss the TV shows that defined their childhoods.
With each guest growing up in a different country, it was fascinating to hear how their experiences of television varied—yet also overlapped in unexpected ways. They reminisced about the fast-talking drama of Gilmore Girls, the enduring soap opera magic of The Bold and the Beautiful, and the cult phenomenon of Buffy the Vampire Slayer—dissecting what these shows meant to them and how they shaped their understanding of the world.
The Perfect Recording Setup
For a podcast like this, where authentic conversation and high-quality audio are key, the right recording environment is essential. The Wellcome Trust Offices offered a quiet, acoustically friendly space, ensuring we could capture every word crisply and clearly.
With a professional audio setup, our team worked behind the scenes to create a seamless recording experience—from ensuring the right mic placement to keeping the energy in the room just right. Evelyn’s natural charisma as a presenter, combined with the guests’ enthusiasm and deep connection to the topic, made for a fantastic first episode.
Exciting Things Ahead!
This was just the beginning for That’s Me On Screen! The pilot episode is currently in post-production, and we can’t wait for you to hear it when it drops. The series promises to be a must-listen for anyone who loves pop culture, nostalgia, and the deeper stories behind our favorite TV moments.
