About us

SRSLY is hosted by Caroline Crampton and Anna Leszkiewicz, the NS’s web editor and editorial assistant. We’re on Twitter as @c_crampton and @annaleszkie, where between us we post a heady mixture of Serious Journalism, excellent gifs and questions J K Rowling needs to answer (ie can wizards vote in Muggle elections). The podcast is also on Twitter @srslypod if you’d like to @ us with your appreciation.

If you’d like to talk to us about the podcast or make a suggestion for something we should read or cover, you can email srslypod[at]gmail.com or submit on our tumblr.

Make sure you never miss an episode by subscribing in iTunes. We’re also on Stitcher, RSS and  SoundCloud – but if you use a podcast app that we’re not appearing in, let us know.
