  • 018.5 XTRAcast - What's tipping you over the edge today?

    Welcome to our Festive Freak Out! It’s all happening. Nick pulled a man in the street minutes before we recorded. Paul went to a gay pantomime. Matthew has been entertaining London. It’s a lot, and it’s all very HOPECAST.

    And we have questions!

    • Do we really have to make every bite epic?
    • Is there an antidote to ‘what if’ catastrophising?
    • What’s the best way to deal with insults hurled from a van?
    • Remember: We don’t have to do this alone

    • 018: Go Small and Stay Home

      What do increasing COVID restrictions, social justice and orchids have in common? HOPECAST! This week it’s three introverts podcasting to the world, examining the false sense of social life we get from social media, boredom and turning FOMO into JOMO!

      And we have questions:

      • What is Yassir going to do with himself now he’s left Hatebook?
      • If you knocked for Anders as a child did he do a fake Mum voice?
      • Why was Oliver watching Benny Hill when he was growing up?
      • Whatever happened to the coked up party rats?
      • Remember: Rejoice in where you are.

      • 017.5: XTRAcast - Honking my own horn

        Paul is back back back in the house and knocking one out solo, reflecting on the last episode and how he turned FOMO into JOMO. Channeling the great philosophers Simon Amstell and Adele, he takes on issues of success, failing, relationships and death. Of course.

        And he has questions!

        • Is there really more road behind than ahead?
        • What would your Queer Manifesto say?
        • Should he stop talking to strangers in the changing room?
        • What would be on your taster menu at the Relationship Cafe?
        • Remember: “Don’t be embarrassed that all you’ve had is fun” - Self Esteem

        • 017: Look at my abs!

          Yassir takes the wheel hosting a conversation that takes in juicy topics like failure, tree-climbing fish, gay footballers and instagram engagement, encouraged by the rally cry of “let’s get personal”. So we do!

          And we have questions!

          • Can vulnerability be weaponised?
          • How do we be more willing to meet the fear of failure?
          • Are we all just destined to be a mess in progress?
          • What would help us to embrace the chaos outside our comfort zone?
          • Remember: We heal when we reveal ourselves.

          • 016.5 XTRAcast: The shiver of vulnerability

            Paul is off for a weekend in the countryside (eeeek!) but before that, he and Yassir chew over the last episode as well as our feelings on winter, practising NO-vember, the attractiveness of vulnerability (in others), and pursuing perfection even when others can see right through us.

            And we have questions:

            • How do we marry knowing vulnerability is good with feeling comfortably vulnerable?
            • Is there a connection between vulnerability, masculinity, sexuality and shame?
            • What helps us feel whole and complete exactly as we are?
            • Who is the most manly man Paul can approach to talk to about vulnerability?
            • Remember: the first rule of vulnerability is you have to give up control

            • 016: Parents are people too

              Woooooo spooky - we’re talking about families and trauma! But first Oliver, Yassir and Paul start with a bit Macbeth and music chat before lamenting what it means for our musical history to be considered retro by cool kids, then a few skips later we’re talking about what happens when we die before diving into abandonment, disownment and forgiveness. Happy Halloween scream queens!

              And we have questions:

              • Would you let Gloria Gaynor lead you to Christ?
              • Which of the angels taking notes on your shoulders has the longer list?
              • How can we find growth and meaning in painful relationships?
              • Who would you be if you’d had a happy childhood?
              • Remember: No-one is homophobic when they’re starving.

              • 015.5: XTRAcast - Inhaling Ella
                What happens when you’re burning the candle at both ends and the whole fucking thing melts? Matt hasn’t stopped for 2 months, Paul is at the tail end of a ‘fuck’ of a cold...we’re both having a bit of a whinge about how tired we are, and missing lockdown, and *sigh* it’s all going to be ok, isn’t it?
                And we have questions!
                Is there more pressure to achieve a legacy if we’re childless?
                Would we be ok being forgotten?
                How do we deal with being ghosted?
                Why do we pretend to be perfect to potential partners?
                Remember: you don’t have to speak German to get into Berghain.

              • 015: Xenophobic chauvinist murder chimps

                Snuggle up! We’re feeling sleepy this morning. Paul is husky and in his pyjamas, Anders is still in bed and Nick has his bear out. We start off slowly, hair ruffled, before diving into a discussion on post-pandemic extroversion, activism, capitalism and Berlin leather clubs. Of course we do.

                And we have questions:

                • Does Paul have Covid? (Spoiler: no)
                • Would you go to a nightclub at 4pm if it means you can be in bed by midnight?
                • Can you ever really change anybody’s mind about anything?
                • Does sci-fi hold the answers to reimagining new queer futures or is our destiny to live on a farm on Gay Island?
                • Very that.

                  Remember: We are all (w)hole

                • 014.5: XTRAcast - Sunday in the park with Anders

                  It’s our first ever ALFRESCOcast with Anders in the park avoiding building noise at home. We manifest some dogs to keep him company while we talk about the Law of Attraction so enjoy the woofing. And we have questions!

                  • What’s the difference between a prayer and a spell?
                  • How do you manifest something if you’re not clear about your needs?
                  • Does Google really know if God exists?
                  • Would you give up freedom in return for cake delivery?
                  • Remember: Pray, and do something.

                  • 014: Wank Bank

                    We’re all *very* excited. Nick is excited about the return of Abba! Yassir is excited to be in London! Oliver is excited for the leaves falling! Matthew is excited about toothpaste tablets! Paul is excited about hitting peak middle age!

                    Change is on our minds this episode. The seasons are changing, the world is changing, and our lives are changing. With all that change, how do we stay connected? We talk about our relationship to the wider world, synchronicity and manifesting joy. And we have questions!

                    • Is the universe sentient?
                    • How do we cultivate an attitude of abundance?
                    • Why is trust so important when it comes to possibility?
                    • Where is the line between sufficiency and greed?
                    • Welcome to the HOPECAST manifestation festival of ejaculation.

                      Remember: you can’t change without discomfort.
