I almost titled this one: "A clinical Psychologist and a Demographer walk into a Podvan..."! I managed to convince a few of the academics from a conference I was hosting, to pop into the van for a chat. I loved the conversations! It's something a bit different for this episode... I hope you enjoy it! Simon Kuestenmacher: https://x.com/simongerman600 Dr Anastasia Hronis: https://www.instagram.com/a...

The first ever episode that was done 100% in the van. The recording (outside Warnies Cafe), the editing, (next to Budgewoi Lake) the recording of the intro and outro, and the posting online - all done from in the Podvan! Chris and Kamila were the first to pop in - and they ended up getting the whole episode to themselves! I really enjoyed this chat - and I hope you do too! Thanks for listening! Fi...

I had a massive anxiety attack the other night. I spoke about it on my Instagram Stories - and the sheer number of responses was incredible!! I've contacted every one of those that'll be read out in this episode, and even got a couple to join me for the chat. I really believe that the more we talk about our mental health struggles, it can help those that are suffering, realise they're not alone. T...

Sarah Kearns is an accidental influencer. Kind of. I mean, she works really hard at what does does - but she was originally a police officer and certainly didn't plan on doing this for a living! (Let's face it, content creators, influencers - those things didn't even exist a few years back, right?) I found her story really interesting and I hope you do too. :) Thanks for listening!

I couldn't believe it. A real life superhero stopped by for a chat! The first 20 minutes of this one would be great to listen to with the kids... I mean, the whole thing is safe in this episode - but I think they'd get a kick out of the superhero! Thanks for listening! Please share the episode if you enjoy it!
