    What's Coming This Episode?

    Human-driven climate change has been proved beyond all reasonable doubt. Many folks, whilst aware of this, are able to continue their lives without the weight of the world on their shoulders. For those of us that spend out days worrying about what we should do, anxiety can creep up on us. So how do we deal with that and how to we refrain from reflecting it on others whilst getting them engaged?

    What's Coming This Episode?

    Politics can be divisive. The last 18 months or so, in the UK and US in particular, has highlighted this quite starkly. Sean reckons Brexit can be overturned. Ed is hopeful that it can but worries about whether that would lead to even more division. What do we do? Who's in charge??! Apologies in advance if we offend 52% of our audience in this one…

    A listener sent us an email recently which described a beautiful process he and his wife had gone through to properly see off two older family members. It was a wonderful tribute and it got us to thinking about how we remember our loved ones once they pass on and the deeper issue of our relationship with death in general.
