Mister Kindness Podcast

Episode 122. Joining us from England for top tier banter is embodiment trainer, Mark Walsh. The optimism of a fresh start in the New Year quickly fades as good intentions get crushed by the return to "normality". If you feel lonely and lost because you lack meaning or purpose in life, cheer up because Mark is here to make you feel better. This is gold. Enjoy... Mark's website is a g...

Episode 121. Joining us from Devon in England is Nic "Rosie" Steevenson, who was a Royal Air Force fast jet navigator in an all-female crew. I had aspirations to be a fast jet pilot - clearly that didn't work out - so I have a lot of respect for anyone who did. You need to be a high performer to do that job so after retiring from the RAF, Rosie used her experience to lecture and tea...

Episode 120. Joining us from Cork, Ireland is performance coach and rapid transformation therapist, Martin Brady. If you're interested in retraining your brain and getting out of a negative doom loop then he's your man. Martin helps people find the gifts we all have and make the most of them.

Episode 119. Joining us from Brussels, Belgium is diplomat and European Union chief security advisor on Africa, Charlie Stuart. Africa is at the centre of the action for the major powers. The EU, USA, China and Russia are all vying for their piece of Africa's enormous natural resources. As a former British Army officer he's got a unique take on the situation. Always good to get the goods...

Episode 118. HOT TOPIC! Listen in for a strategic overview of global politics in the new Trump era. Joining us from Dorset in the south of England is my old friend and colleague, Nick Borton. We served together as Army officers in the Royal Highland Fusiliers many, many years ago. Our careers diverged considerably after that. Nick recently finished his last role as the General in command of the NA...

Episode 117. Joining us from Missouri, USA is researcher and podcaster, Chance Garton. My favourite subject to read about is ancient history - in an attempt to figure out why we're here. The story of us humans is heavily influenced by myths and early religion, which I find fascinating. After listening to Chance's podcasts I wanted to talk to him as he's so knowledgeable on this subj...

Episode 116. Joining us from Dublin, Ireland is strength and conditioning coach, Brian O'Loughlin. His TELOS project aims to help clients live their lives by design to transform physically, mentally and emotionally. Brian got injured which led to depression until he took radical steps to fix himself. As someone who's racked up some mileage, it was refreshing to hear his alternative solut...

Episode 115. Joining us from Malta in the Mediterranean Sea is actor Andrei Claude. In our previous podcast (episode 42) we discussed how hard it is to make it as an actor. It's a tough gig. Previously, he's had roles in Game of Thrones and Vikings - now he's on the big screen alongside Hallie Berry and Mark Wahlberg in the Netflix movie The Union. Absolute pleasure having Andrei as...

Episode 114. Joining us from British Columbia, Canada is author and researcher, Ken Goudsward. In the West we learn a very narrow and culturally specific view of history. In Sumeria (modern day Iraq), ancient clay tablets with cuneiform writing tell a very different version of the origin of the human race. Ever heard of the Anunnaki? Any idea how many times UFO-like aircraft are mentioned in the b...

Episode 113. Joining us for a 4th time is ex-Special Forces soldier and performance coach, Lindsay Bruce. He created the Modern Warrior Project to help men over 40 to achieve lasting transformation and advancement in their lives. We talk about diet, fitness, mindset and even the spiritual component required to live a good life. Always a wildly interesting chat with Lindsay. Listen to episodes 30,...

Episode 112. From a long list of crazy podcasts, this one takes some beating.  Joining us from the south of France is Ed Courage. At 68 years old, he was one of three survivors of the freak helicopter crash discussed in episode 108. Talk about having a bad day: he was thrown out of the heli into an avalanche which ended when he landed on a very narrow ice bridge 30m (100ft) down a crevasse. Terrib...

Episode 111. Joining us from Edinburgh, Scotland is entrepreneur, former ski racer and my friend, Nick Robinson. He co-founded Maison Sport, an app for booking ski and snowboard lessons all over Europe. They have instructors providing lessons in 430+ resorts across France, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Slovenia, Finland, Spain, Bulgaria and the UK. His story is pretty remarkable, and most...

Episode 110. Joining us from Verbier, Switzerland is elite performance coach, advisor, entrepreneur, author and many other things is Ariane de Bonvoisin. This is a profound, inspiring conversation. As kids we are told that if we conform, study hard and work hard we will be happy. Ariane lived the "perfect life" as an elite athlete, top student and did everything society told her to do -...

Episode 109. Joining us from London is author and psychedelic researcher, George Hart. This is basically the story of modern religion and it's mind-blowing. From pre-Ice Age shamanism up to the present day, human consumption of psychedelics has had a major effect on our modern culture. This is a cracking episode which raises so many questions. I loved it. Enjoy... Mister Kindness now on Twitt...

Episode 108. Joining us for a second time from Verbier, Switzerland is mountain guide and all-round superwoman, Caroline George. I wrote this in the description of the last episode we did, "Working as a guide is one of the most difficult and dangerous jobs I can think of - but also the coolest. Their job is to take clients into the mountains for adventure and make sure everyone gets home aliv...

Episode 107. Joining us from Portugal is humanitarian adventurer and absolute legend of a human being, Pedro Queiros. Over the last 2 months, he ran 50 marathons in 50 days for charity though Japan, completely unassisted. We originally did a podcast after 8 days and he was already badly injured, worried he wouldn't be able to finish. In the end, because he missed a few days to injury, he ran...

Episode 106. Joining us from the Pacific Northwest, USA, is Dylan Saccocchio. It's an honour to have him as a guest as I've been following his work for a few years now. Dylan is a linguistic sleuth and what he's discovered about the origin of European languages sow doubt on our historical timeline. There's so much info in this podcast it's hard to describe. Take a dive int...

Episode 105. Joining us from Barcelona is entrepreneur Guy Morley. Did you know mushrooms have been used in medicine since forever? Guy's company - called Upraising - create organic, high-end coffee mixed with some of the most beneficial functional mushrooms, adaptogens and nootropics.  We talk about the wide array of health benefits from mushrooms like calmness, memory, focus, clarity and en...

Episode 104. Joining us from Poland is author and researcher, Aleksander Czeszkiewicz. He wrote his book "Deja Vu: Has Everything Already Been?" when he was only 17. It's a deep dive into deep history, pre-flood civilisation and esoteric knowledge, which aren't subjects your typical teenager is into. If modern humans like us have been around for at least 200,000 years, does it...

Episode 103. Joining us from Monterey, Mexico is returning guest, Prof. Michael Le Flem. Our last podcast, episode 71, about Atlantis was one of my all time favourites. He's come back to talk about ancient civilisations and the Yuga Cycle. Ever heard of it? A Yuga Cycle lasts 24,000 years and is made up of gold, silver, bronze and iron ages. Life on earth is paradise in the golden age and awf...

Episode 102. This is another WILD one. Joining us from Chamonix, France are operative alchemists Roger Lambert and Israel Ruiz.  Let's go for a deep dive into the esoteric world of alchemy. It's an ancient art that creates medicines called spagyrics from plants, rocks and metals. Israel takes it to another level - he's possibly the only person in the world practicing the taboo of an...
