MacGuffin presents CHAINS, its very first podcast – which bears the title of the latest issue of the Dutch magazine – hosted by Alix de Massiac
“In the five-part podcast CHAINS, Alix de Massiac paints a portrait of the Amsterdamse Stadsbank van Lening, a four-hundred-year-old pawnshop that’s a unique combination of business and social service. The Stadsbank lends money, accepting jewellery as collateral.
