  • S3 Ep8: Do Well: The School of Hard Stares
    Welcome back to Do Well, your guide to the newest, most outlandish boundary pushers in the world of wellness. In this episode I meet Suffolk resident Bob Jeffers who's so convinced about the wellness benefits of Hard Stares, he's gone and created a school. Wonder what Ofsted would say about that?

  • S3 Ep6: Do Well: Blanket Banning
    Here we are again, waving the wellness banner, quite literally as this episode is dedicated to banning. Guest Bob Jeffers is so passionate about his new banning movement that he's devised some kind of tenuous link to wellness that's frankly laughable. Do well.

In this episode, roving reporter Alex has roved around and found local resident, Susan Flatpack who believes the key to cosmic connection is in dog lifting. Not just any dog.
