Rocket Surgery (Deep Thought for Dummies)

This week we chat mostly about the progression of the cancer, and the side-effects of the treatments on the rest of Chris' body and mind.

We are back!

After both of us had a busy few weeks, we finally caught up Thursday last week.

We've been asking Chris for a while to recite some poetry; he can't recall things like he used to so was a bit reluctant, but we manage to get him to recite most of 2 of his favourite poems.

Enjoy.

This week, we talk about:

• the Tale of Two Heads
• a commentary on Israel
• progress on helping the Peace of Mind Foundation

We're back!!
A combination of being away, and some busyness with that pesky work thing, has kept us from getting together for the last few weeks.
This week we are really just doing "The Tale of Two Heads" as we rabbited on a bit long.

Yah. Pod loaded by Saturday this week.

This week we review the federal election, and Chris is surprisingly ok with the result, and can see some positives. we also talk about mastery vs competency, particularly in a business situation, and the usual review of our f&&ed up heads. Oh, and I tell the joke this week so probably best to skip the last 2 minutes.

We recorded this one last Friday however one of us had a problem with our brain function which prevented it being published till today (following Wednesday) apologies to the rusted ons for the lack weekend listening material.

This week we discuss Brain Cancer Awareness month. We also wade into the difference between how boys and girls manage problems (oh yes, we will likely upset somebody for sure)

This week we pay our respect to all those who have fought, and some who have died, to give us the freedoms we enjoy.

We also discuss what a meat chicken is, and get a little political.

Enjoy

This week we discuss mental health in more detail; particularly in light of some sobering news about how Arnie is refusing to do as he is told at present.

Edit.....posting originally Friday evening but we had some extra audio bits in it that shouldn't have been there.....took these out so if you are seeing this Saturday onwards, you won't hear this.

This week's title may be a bit misleading; we did have it as a topic, but as the conversation paned out, we probably only spent 5-10 minutes on it.
Instead, we talked mainly about Chris' latest scan, and the great work of the Peace of Mind Foundation, a brain cancer charity, set up to support cancer patients and their families.
We were also joined by a good mate of ours, Megan, who chimed in with a few stories of her own.

For those who tried listening to this previously, I uploaded the Part 1 version against this one.....sorry.....this one is the one I should have posted.

After Ep20 we were provided some feedback on our opinions. Rather than be worried about what people think, we are excited that this may be generating discussions amongst people about these important issues. Unfortunately we had to cut this chat short due to some other issues going on; it was originally going to be Ep21 but we decided rather than go back and finish it off properly (who the F does that??) we would just post it as a tack on to the Ep20 chat.
