I'm Fine Podcast

The gradations of addiction, like all aspects of our complex lives, stretch infinitely between polar opposites of ecstasy and despair. In this episode, for the first time, we start the journey into Mark's personal battle with addiction and how normalising habits and behaviours can set one on a path of self-destruction and the breakdown of healthy social structures. Also in this episode, the gambling pencil, Porn Star Martinis, simulations and falling asleep at the wheel.

In this week's episode, we take a long-overdue revisit to Dopamine and look at how its baseline, peaks and troughs can affect our motivations and perceptions to reward. Also, we're still a big deal in North Africa, Trump's new social platform, pillow cases and is taking the knee now taking the piss?

We're back with a completely unedited and unplanned stream of consciousness where we cover Katie from Nat West, not reading properly, Mark's rippling torso, Hat Mancock in bed with Bill Gates, reducing the overwhelm, sending positivity and not sticking your head in the sand.

In the second part of this positivity special, Damo & Mark discuss Accurate and Flexible Thinking as potential precursors to effective positive thinking; the idea that you can't deploy a positive mindset and set of positive actions without first filtering your facts from your fiction. Plus, a killer life hack that could halt the spread of COVID and keep your hygiene-conscious alien happy!

In this week's episode, whoever invented the chair has a lot to answer for! We weren't designed for a sedentary life and we've forgotten how to move. Also in this episode, Mark opens some brown envelopes, summer storm warnings, our thirst for conflict and is anyone still listening to us?

In this episode, we discuss the complete and utter buffoonery that is society's reduced freedoms for the non-vaccinated amongst us. Mark has an exclusive expose on how the madness is increasingly in plain sight, we take a look at how it doesn’t pay to be logical when everybody else is being logical through the eyes of Rory Sutherland.

Mark's come to the pod all cross but he's soon soothed by drafting his own obituary live on the pod! Also in this episode, du boeuf avec monsieur Branson, 65 yards of ice cream, the death of football, triple vaccines, The Dismal Store, more naughty lyrics, life hacks and the small subject of whether we are really in control of our own destinies or just pissing in the wind.
