Sideways

This week we're talking about panic attacks and how dealing with them is not only challenging but counterintuitive.

Martin tells me we can't take a break, even for the Queen's Jubilee, I moan about street parties, we agree that traveling to Florida sounds incredibly dangerous, and there is some fish snobbery.

At the end, I've left you a little gift to mark the end of season 5(!!)

This week we're talking about why offering advice might not be as good an idea as helping someone decide for themselves that change is needed.

Martin forgets to turn on his microphone which makes me sound louder than I feel comfortable with, we have a disagreement about Eurovision, and there's panic in a restaurant.

This week, we're discussing how to be tactful and why it's important for the health of relationships and how it relates to assertiveness.

We agree on silent movies, Martin has a reductionist view of Charlie Chaplin, I share my appalling record-keeping habits, and I try to convince that Martin's dreams about a tiger might have some significance.

This week we're discussing the myth of normality and how when people say, "I just want to feel normal," they mostly mean that they just don't want to feel like they do anymore.

Martin gets frustrated about batteries, I get fed up with the cats from next door, we hear a sobering tale about the demise of a landlady from long ago, and we find it impossible not to have a chat about MP's watching porn on their phones while they're at work.

Honestly, it's not normal.

This week we’re talking about Phil Daniels in the film Quadrophenia, or rather the issue of multiple identities that the film deals with.

Martin gets excited about sticky tape, gives us some illuminating information about stealing from the bees, we both recall experiencing a common metaphor in real life, and wonder why people bother to put the progress they’ve made with games on the internet.

This week we're talking about the importance of being able to act, think, and express ourselves in the way we choose to, and the importance of considering the impact on other people when we are doing so.

We debate the impressions it's no longer socially acceptable to do, hear about a trouser-related disaster, and there is gratitude for biscuits and new cookware.

This week we're talking about how to cope when nothing feels solid enough to rely on.

I get excited about pressure cookers, hit upon a flawed plan to finally get myself involved in yoga, Martin mocks my first bicycle, and there is a sobering tale about the dangers of foraging.

This week we're talking about happiness, what it really is, and how much of it we can realistically expect to enjoy.

We discuss the possibility of turning our hand to opera, get some interesting new information on the topic of vegan pets from one of our listeners, and Martin gets a bit upset when he thinks I've set him some homework.

This week we're talking about how to manage when you feel an insatiable desire for something you either can't or ought not to have.

We discuss how cravings are a way of indicating that there is space within us that needs to be filled but not necessarily with whatever it is we're trying to get hold of.

There's chat about my experience of covid, how to call "shotgun" on other people's possessions when you think they might be gravely ill, and we agree on an album that ought to be a fixture of every household.
