Come Whine With Me

Part 2 of our New Year extravaganza.

Pour a glass of wine and join Katie and James for their usual banter and thought provoking chats!

In our first podcast of 2021 we kick off with our reflections on 2020 and what has challenged us. Since we had so much to say we've split it into two parts!

Tune in for our tweets of the year, as well as a chat about Katie's 2020 journey and hopes for 2021, including exploring spirituality in new ways, from Tarot to Ignatian contemplation

Join us for a very special One Too Many where James, Katie and newbie Alex play would you rather (except Katie is a bit bevved after an episode recording already and James didn't get the Christmas memo...)

Apologies for the delay in uploading this - we've been plagued with illness and Christmas Covid drama. Enjoy!

Welcome back whiners! We're kicking off season 2 with a chat about conspiracy theories. Why are they so popular right now? Where do they originate from? How do they make us feel more in control of our world when everything is so uncertain? When does healthy critical thinking turn into a destructive conspiracy theory?

As ever, tweets of the week and James' jingles are back!

James and Katie follow on from the last episode discussing what the new normal will look like now lockdown is being lifted. What are we looking forward to again? What would we like to stay changed? Plus more tweets of the week (including Katie going 'viral')

In this episode of CWWM, James and Katie talk about what they've been up to in this strange new world. From Katie's favourite tweets of the week, to honest talk about the highs and lows of the past few weeks. Plus, we begin a discussion about what life might look like as we emerge from this, and what our hopes are for a 'new normal'. To be continue...

Back of the bottle: For all the sound aficionados out there: we're very aware the the sound isn't perfect in this episode, sadly! We're using a new software to enable us to still record from our respective homes, but there's no mic levels. We've done the best we can and promise it will be much better next time! 

In the first of our One Too Many bonus episodes, we discuss a very strange Easter thanks to Covid-19. The Easter story is one many of us know well, but regardless of whether you think it is just a story, or something more, we reflect on what it - especially the silence of Saturday - has to say to us in these uncertain times. 

In the first episode of Come Whine With Me, James and Katie discuss everything related to the rapidly developing Covid-19 crisis. Tune in for James' rendition of Love on Top while he washes his hands, or a whine about stockpiling (could you not?). Stay for a thoughtful discussion about media hysteria, looking after your mental health and what the crisis has shown about our approach to community and how we can all help in the coming weeks and months.
