Monday Dec 23, 2019
The CLP breaks with tradition and actually does a Christmas show this year! So what lenses and cameras do Perry, Johnny and Simon want for Christmas? To make it easier/harder the wish list of gear that they want Santa to acquire for them is broken down into price based categories. So that will be a Cameradactyl Brancopan, Voigtlander, Olympus, Canon, Leica, Dallmeyer, KMZ, Mamiya and many more...

#97 Anthony Rue: You've Gotta Get That!
Tuesday Dec 17, 2019
Tuesday Dec 17, 2019
Perry is taking a tough break in Bali, so this week we go back to Karl Haven's favourite coffee, tea & chocolate shop: Volta Coffee, Tea & Chocolate! We chatted with Anthony back in February 2019, and Anthony's collection has not diminished at all. He joins us for a relaxed chat covering some of his latest toys. We also read a few emails from around the world with extra care taken regarding name pronunciations...

#96 How Is The Water For You?
Monday Dec 09, 2019
Monday Dec 09, 2019
All is well again at The Gilded CLP Tower as Johnny's connection problems are resolved and Perry has not been gassed (recently). Simon hands back Jeremy North's wonderful Contax G2 and is immediately loaned something even more special for a forthcoming light painting workshop. Is looking at great work by other photographers, a bad thing? Is all art political? Does Big Mouth Billy Bass drink Malört?

#95 Desert Island Lenses with Cheyenne Morrison
This week Cheyenne Morrison joins us as a returning guest from Down Under. We send him from the lovely island of Australia to a much smaller desert island, washed ashore with three lenses from his collection and one dream lens. Johnny is missing this week, but in the meantime, Simon continues his November purchasing spree, while Perry shoots digital and gets tear gassed again.
