Curious Brainfarts

Society EN ↓ 69 episodes

The place where two ordinary people talk about things people are curious about. We're not taking ourselves too seriously, and we certainly don't have all the answers. We're offering a light-hearted space to think about some stuff differently. We discuss the topics off the cuff based on how the theme strikes us in the moment! It's risky, we keep in the bloopers, and it keeps us on our toes. You can get involved by dropping us suggestions at curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com. Episodes are dropping weekly.

Episodes

Fear 09.05.2024

Fear - it's a curious beast and we thought it was interesting to explore how and where it shows up, how we deal with it and how it's unique to each one of us. If you'd like to suggest a topic for us to get curious about, drop us an email to curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com.

Teamwork 02.05.2024

This episode comes from a lovely listener, Paul off of Bristol, who refers to us Cerebral Pumpers. Teamwork, is it what makes the dream work? Well step inside and have a listen for yourself. What do you think? If you want to send us a suggestion, drop us an email to curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com

Accountability 25.04.2024

Who me? No, it must be you... Accountability is a double edged sword that sometimes we love, and other times we shun. If we're not careful it can also make for a good witch hunt! There's a lot to be said for accountability, including over-accountability (which we maybe didn't discuss). There's lots to it, just as the episode cover suggests! If you want to share a curious brainfart...

Boundaries 18.04.2024

Well, it's not just about cricket and county lines, there's a lot more to it than that! Big thanks to Marco for getting in touch and feeding the random theme generator in time! If you want to suggest a topic, drop us a message to curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com

Failure 11.04.2024

It's a loaded topic and unsurprisingly negative, yet is that all there is to it? We've had a lot of experience with failure in different ways and find a few interesting avenues to explore. What do you think? How does failure impact you? If you want to suggest something for us to get curious about, drop us an email to curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com

Vegetables 04.04.2024

Well.... vegetables.... tasty! Bed cabbage could be the new couch potato; give it a try and surprise someone with your epic skills! Have a little foredge through this episode and let us know what you got from it. Send us your suggestions by dropping us an email curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com.

Motivation 28.03.2024

If you remember Mr Motivator off of the 90s, you'll be surprised how little that has to do with this episode. A dear listener, Lyndsey, sent an email to the Random Theme Generator (RTG). We're delighted that her topic was served up as it was a really interesting topic. Motivation shows up in so many different ways for people, and us, it's a very cool theme. Add your suggestion to the R...

Games We Play 21.03.2024

Not Snakes & Ladders, we're talking about psychological games. It's interesting to see how many games there are and how surprisingly relatable they are to everyday life. No one is immune and the more we notice what's going on the better for all of us. Have an idea for us to get curious about? Drop us an email to curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com

Cruise Ships 14.03.2024

Well, that took an interesting turn! You'd be surprised (not really) about how much we know about cruise ships. We do uncover a few interesting things, one being lots of different types of bias associated. We hope you enjoy this episode and we look forward to hearing from you at curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com. You can also find us on Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn.

Self-awareness 07.03.2024

We literally scratch the surface of this topic and create some powerful mental images. There's so much to explore with self-awareness and this gives a glimpse into how we view it. If you'd like to suggest a topic, drop us any suggestions to curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com.

Tiredness 29.02.2024

Tiredness, it's a strange one and something we can all relate to and is super relative - sorry, no one wins the prize for "the most tired". There's a few different angles that we end up stumbling upon. Take a listen for yourself. If you want to get involved, drop us an email to curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com

Animals 22.02.2024

We cover everything from pets to livestock to wildlife, on land, under water and go to some very interesting places. We tried to capture the essence of the whole conversation and did almost land it, maybe... Send us your theme ideas to curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com

Startups 17.02.2024

This episode Lou and Paul get curious about Startups.... Obvious theme choice, right? Hmmmm... Turns out there's a lot to explore and the secret to the success of any startup is closer than we might think. We'd love to talk about something you're curious about, so drop us an email to curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com

Manifesting 10.02.2024

This week we're talking about  #Manifesting  which sounds a bit "woo woo" and there's a lot to be said for it. We get curious about why and how to use it, our own experiences, the challenges and  #biases  surrounding it. Let us know what you want us to talk about at  curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com #CuriousBrainfarts   #Curiosity   #CuriosityChronicles

Uncertainty 03.02.2024

Can we be certain of anything? This week we notice there's lots going on for us and we're totally sure about it all. So we decide to give the theme of uncertainty a curious run for its money.

Wisdom 27.01.2024

This episode we have a natter about Wisdom as suggested by a lovely listener, Michael. We learn some things about ourselves and dig into the idea of wisdom. We hope you enjoy!!

Imposter Syndrome... 20.01.2024

There's a lot to this and we're not pretending to be experts or have all the answers. We are curious about it though and there's a lot to glean. There are several fruity farts in this episode and there's only one naughty word.

Listening! Pardon? 13.01.2024

It's curious that doing proper listening is difficult and we can't do it all the time. What does it mean to us? How does it show up? What does great listening feel like? Let's not get too heavy, we can have a giggle at the same time!

Simple, not basic 07.01.2024

We get curious about the difference between simple and basic, what the impact is, why we think each has their merits and sometimes get slightly off topic - much to be expected. You can get involved and offer topic suggestions at curiousbrainfarts@gmail.com! #CuriousBrainfarts
