This week we're talking about the components that help us get the most from our lives.

A woman becomes unbelievably wealthy when buying a cup of coffee, there's underwear that measures 'flatus', I get the ick about something I can't recall, and there's more gratitude than you can shake a stick at.

This week, we're trying to explain why so many people remain addicted to drink and drugs even when they can see how much damage it's doing.

A professional fighter gets his hair punched off, I witness a live drug deal whilst walking home from the shops, we display a pathetic level of knowledge about American sport, and wonder if the best place to find love might be along the aisles of a supermarket.

This week, we're talking about kindness, how to demonstrate more of it and what it feels like when we do.

We're recording on the first day of February which reminds of of violent traditions from childhood, and Martin has a story about physical assault with an unusual weapon.

We're back in our traditional roles this week which, in my case, inevitably includes a predictably poor performance on the lyric quiz.

This week, we have a look at the popular 'Dry January' campaign and consider the potential benefits and drawbacks it represents. We also discuss why long term recovery for dependent drinkers is not comparable with short-term behavioural programmes that appear to have similar aim but, in truth, diverge enormously.

We also hear about a man who chose an unusual disguise after wrongly being accused of a heinous crime, wonder about the wisdom of old men sporting ponytails, and remember the days when the GP would suggest you had a smoke to get rid of your chesty cough.

This week we're discussing the difference between tolerance and acceptance.

There's a drunk racoon, vaccination chat, and I am back to my usual disappointing worst in the lyric quiz.

There is also a single uttering of the f-word so, if you're easily offended, you might be better off with 'The One Show'.

Happy New Year.

This week we're talking about expereinces that move you unexpectedly. 

I offer the example of a key change in a James Taylor song that moved me before realising that it doesn’t have a key change in it at all. It was the introduction of the string section at the beginning of the third verse which got me, but it's still a valid example I reckon.

In other news,  Martin is still struggling with Christmas, there are literal hair-raising tales about riding a rollercoaster, and a woman gets a worm in her eyelid.

This vaguely festive episode is our last one of the year, so we’d also like to take this opportunity to thank you for listening and wish you a happy and peaceful festive season whether you’re observing Christmas or not.

This week, we're discussing an effective antidote to anything that triggers feelings of anxiety, stress, overwhelm or sadness.

Martin suggests some world records we can have a crack at, and there's some hygiene talk that involves dangerous soap and whether it's right to multitask whilst taking a shower.

This week we're talking about the way the shift in seasons and the changing of the clocks is a point in the year when many of us find our emotional resilience severely tested.

In other news, a bold double bluff doesn't work out, there are alarming developments on the toothpaste front, and we present a gratitude sandwich.

This week we're talking about the tendency to explain too much, a habit that emerges from insecurity in the explainer and often has little to do with the target of the explanation.

A plane is grounded as a result of flatulence, there's a squirrel on wheels, Martin frightens small children, and we debate the wisdom of letting a delivery driver use your toilet.

This week we're talking about an effective way of keeping yourself on track or reducing feelings of overwhelm when you're facing practical and/or emotional challenges.

We also feel grateful for seasonal joy and being fed. 

There's some other nonsense too but I can't remember what it was about and I have a client in 10 minutes so I don't have time to check, and I've just realised that I haven't been including the normal intro with birdsong and all that paraphernalia. I'll do better next time.

Also, here's a link to the type of video we mention in relation to body doubling on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ex_bNIFR1A
