À PROPOS DE CET ÉPISODE
We love to shop. In this episode, Katie regales Nina about iconic (in the religious sense) Indian grocery store Sweet Mart. Sweet Mart opened in 1978 and has since become a local Bristol institution. It sells everything you could ever want, from South Asian veg, to Western condiments, to Jamaican bread, to organic Japanese products. However, the history of this always-fully-stocked-with-everything shop in a gentrifying neighbourhood starts unexpectedly in Uganda. We spoke with co-owner Rashid Majothi, who generously explained how his family migrated to England and the origin of Sweet Mart. Guest stars: Bristol's ice rink, Zabaar's, pringles mural, Fran Fine.

We are joined by superior collector Raquel Caballero, who through years of treasure hunting built a cave of wonders in her modern rental home.
