Welcome to The Big Smoke Variety Show! In this episode, "Change in Muddy Waters", we bring together two remarkable guests for an evening of historical discovery, refugee empowerment, and personal journeys.
First, we dive into the world of Sean Clark, a licensed mudlark with a passion for uncovering the hidden stories of 17th-century London. Sean has spent years along the banks of the Thames, discovering unique and historical artifacts that once belonged to the city’s long-forgotten inhabitants. Sean shares his mudlarking adventures, bringing along some precious objects and revealing the untold stories of the lives that slipped into the river centuries ago. His fascinating finds give new life to the past, reminding us how small discoveries can spark big revelations.
We also welcome Anil Qasemi, Project Lead for Afghan Resettlement at USPUK. A survivor and recent refugee himself, Anil uses his experiences to empower and assist fellow refugees, offering vital information and guidance through challenging transitions. An entrepreneur and former award-winning journalist, Anil has contributed to major publications while also founding HATOPIA, an online headwear provider. His dedication to helping others rebuild their lives makes him a powerful voice in both the humanitarian and entrepreneurial worlds.
