March 05, 2022 Dave's Turning Fortaaay! Ss8Ep#4 (tay)
It's because he looks like John Barnes. Ps.

Today I compare myself and PGAFOTS Dave Webster along 2 dimensions of personality, namely introversion and extraversion and end up saying what is the defining point of the episode, that your personality shouldn't be at odds with your life.

August 16, 2021 'Midwits' Ss7Ep#40
They're are far too many words to mention, but that doesn't mean we don't need any new ones!A new word can be incredibly helpful and 'midwit'(for me at least) is a great word to know because it perfectly encapsulates a particular type of person. And once you've pidgeon holed something it aids in further organising your mind. Now all that's left to do is start filling up my midwit box with people's names.292 solos down, 2 to go!

August 04, 2021 'Use It Or Loose It' Ss7Ep#38
This episode ended up highlighting for me what I might spend some time working on when I end the weekday episodes.It's essentially about the importance of implementing what you already know. If you're anything like me you have a thirst for knowledge, which is great, but it becomes counter productive if you're not utilising and indeed capitalising on it.

August 03, 2021 Defining The Circumstances For Success' Ss7Ep#37
I kick things off by explaining how going vegetarian during August isn't going far enough but that going vegan is too far and how I've managed to find a worthwhile middle ground.I also end up exploring why creative Irish people often need to 'make it' outside of Ireland before being accepted at home for who and what they are.
