01 - Tea, Sheep & Take That at the Heckington Show!

Rich and Dan are finally here with the very first episode of Strong Lincs, even if they haven’t decided what to call the show… or set up their social media… or worked out how anyone can actually get in touch with them (self-addressed envelope, anyone?).

In this lively debut, the pair set out to champion Lincolnshire, its people, and the amazing things happening across the county. Rich explains the heart of the show – celebrating everything that makes Lincolnshire strong, while Dan reminds him that at some point they’ll need to get organised. 

Armed with press passes (and questionable preparation), the duo dive headfirst into the 157th Heckington Show. Expect: a soggy start hiding in the Tea Marquee with fruit bread and a brew, a spin on the big wheel for sky-high views of the showground, chats about Lincolnshire Longwool sheep and majestic Shire horses, an interview with Glynn and Mick from the Lincolnshire Ruffs, a catch-up with show chairman Charles Pinchbeck on the event’s proud history, singing along at the evening concert and bumping into the Take That boys, meeting local businesses including Manchettes Vehicle Repair Centre and Emma from Goodfinds, bumping into a wandering musician with a mandolin, a friendly chat with Jan back in the Tea Marquee, and Rich even has a go at axe-throwing (yes, really!).

It’s chaotic, it’s funny, it’s friendly, and it’s all about Lincolnshire. Join Rich and Dan as they kick off their podcasting adventure in true Strong Lincs style!
