This weeks guest is Glaswegian Photographer Tommy Ga-Ken Wan. We got Tommy in to talk to us about being present and targeted at George Square in Glasgow, by 'Loyalist' Right Wing thugs there under the guise of protecting statues. Tommy talks us through what happened and we had a great conversation about why we find ourselves here in 2020 and some potential solutions.

Rebel City Podcast - Episode #80 - Jamie Cooke by Podcast out of Glasgow by Paul Shields and Matt Diamond

This weeks guest is former Labour MP Paul Sweeney.

We got into Paul personal experiences of Lockdown, life after being an MP, new Labour Leader Keir Stramer, how the new Leader has started his opposition, current Tory Corona response, his experience of applying for Universal Credit and the back lash he got after going public.

Shaking things up from our last 7 or 8 episodes, we hooked in with the guys from Drunk Therapy Podcast. The guys, as I'm sure most know, are a great bunch and a right laugh. We spoke about how we are all finding Lockdown, polarized Scotland and UK, UK vs New Zealand Covid-19 response, sports behind closed doors and more!

This week we chat about dealing with symptoms and impact on mentality, test and trace in UK, situation in Venezuela, trying to get us back early, people waiting 45 mins on a Costa Coffee and Star Wars binges. This is our first videoed Podcast since Lockdown and so will be looking to include some guests over coming weeks :)

Part Two of the short version of the Podcast with 'Mrs Brain Trainer'. In the second and final part we talk about:

• Practical advice to get out of your head.

• Importance of inner dialogue and how to train that.

• Offer to reach out to Amanda for effective interruption on thoughts.

• How what you think is your reality.

• What you put into your mind shapes that reality.

• Managing personal relationships during Lockdown.

• Doing the things that time usually gets in the way of.

• Importance of time alone.

• Dealing with financial issues and the world of ever changing circumstances.

This week we had a lot to cover, we caught up after a Zoom quiz and talk about how being social is important, Trumps ridiculous ideas, Vegas asking to open back up, why we aren't getting clarity of Covid numbers, Cummings in SAGE and More Manson, Whitey Bulger and The Unabomber’s links to MK Ultra.

This is part one a special edition episode of the podcast with clinical Hypnotherapist Amanda or Mrs Brain Trainer. Paul got to chat over Skype with the self proclaimed 'Queen Of Calm' to ask how she is dealing with Lockdown mentally and get some advice for our listeners and anyone who is struggling with life right now. In part one we talk about importance of routine and how to set expectations around the new norm.

This week we talked about how its easy to get caught out in lockdown with previous behaviors, how JK Rowling and celebrities in general can lack self awareness without a PR machine, Labour's lack of opposition, Tom O'Neill's 'Chaos' a book about Charles Manson links to CIA and MK Ultra and how this is the longest period there hasn't been a school shooting in US since 2002. OH and Piers Morgan is still a CUNT!

Another one to put under 'Lockdown Files'. We talk about Scottish CMO having to stand down due to not sticking to their own recommendations, UK Government failings during the crisis, Boris in hospital, Sir Keir of Labour, missing sport and Drew McIntyre's journey to Wrestlemania...
