Don't stand so close to me.
May 23, 2020 09:00 - 22 minutes - 20.6 MBW/C 18th May 2020 'How's your week been Ant?' I hear you say. 'Actually, pretty good' I reply in an upbeat tone 'I have had a good week work-wise, and everybody at home are coping just fine' (slight pause) '...so why is this weeks TFM just a little bit grumpier than usual?!" Mmm, good point. And one (tbh) to which I don't have much of a response. So I guess I am going to ask you just to roll with it for this week, accept the fact that I have a problem with the Daily Mail, the attack on...
Land of Confusion
May 16, 2020 08:00 - 22 minutes - 20.8 MBW/C 11th May 2020 I am a bit concerned my podcasts are starting to fall into a pattern... Monday - rant on about something. Tuesday - get distracted by something else. Wednesday - make amends for rant, by talking about something heartwarming and innocent. Thursday - bang on about a podcast Friday - #lockdownfriday. (Mmm...I hear you say.) But not this week, because this week I.. Monday - had a rant about politics. Tuesday - got distracted with a haircut. Wednesday - took solace i...
Don't look back in anger.
May 09, 2020 09:00 - 20 minutes - 18.5 MBW/C 4th May 2020 This week I have mostly been having mixed feelings about VE Day, and it's a tough one to talk about because I am not 100% sure what it is was that was bothering me, all I knew is but something definitely was. They say that cutting hair is very much like making love to a beautiful woman, and that may well be true. In my case it involved a short YouTube instructional video to get my confidence up and then some tentative fumbling, before a less than professional conclusion. ...
Sit down.
May 02, 2020 08:00 - 24 minutes - 22.3 MBW/C 27th April 2020 As the days and weeks start to blur a little in the lockdown haze I have found myself noticing very random things this week. I am starting to get concerned about my early-morning hair says about my personal standards, why it is that multi-tasking when it comes to standing & removing socks is so tricky and how it feels to top the charts.

The first cut is the deepest.
April 25, 2020 09:00 - 24 minutes - 22.4 MBW/C 20th April 2020 I will probably never name-drop as much again as I have done this week. It just ended up being one of those weeks that felt entirely normal, and yet was somewhat surreal. We are all being changed by the way we are living & adapting at the moment, I am really starting to cherish some of those changes. I don't think I am the only one questioning whether I want to rush back to every part of my pre-pandemic lifestyle. Stay safe x Instagram Twitter Facebook The Corona D...
Park (lockdown compliant) Life
April 18, 2020 09:00 - 25 minutes - 23.2 MBW/C 13th April 2020 I went shopping for Pearls of Wisdom for you this week, and as luck would have it they were on offer - buy one get two free. Flip-flop weather is fine, but when you get sick of looking at your own toenails then you need to shake it up a bit As lockdown meanders on, a steady stream of heroes (past & present) are standing up to be counted - the genius that is Pete the Sparky, the long-time listener gingergleds and the legend that is Ron Swanson. And for those crumble pu...
Inbetween days
April 11, 2020 09:00 - 25 minutes - 23 MBW/C 6th April 2020 I felt bad starting the week with a rant, but it had been gnawing away at me for a while, and after all this is therapy for me. However, the rest of the week was a cornucopia of small chunks of the good stuff (like the caramel pieces in a tub of Ben & Jerrys Caramel Chew Chew) so I guess it all worked out in the end. Have a great easter weekend and check out the title track... Stay safe x Instagram Twitter
I don't like Tuesdays (tell me why)
April 04, 2020 09:00 - 26 minutes - 24.4 MBW/C 30th March 2020 Well here we are, week two of the Coronavirus lockdown and life is slowly starting to morph into a pattern of sorts. My week began with some DIY SOS for our feathered friends that didn't go quite to plan, a bit of a lowly Tuesday but then a proper bounce-back for the end of the week. That just leaves shoutout Friday, where I try to steer you toward the weekend with a few positives - but as you would expect from me, that doesn't go quite to script either. Stay safe x ...
Schools out (kind of..)
March 28, 2020 09:00 - 24 minutes - 22 MBW/C 23rd March 2020 The first week of the Coronavirus lockdown and we spent the week trying to carve out some kind of 'new normal'. I ruminate on the challenges of home-tutoring, my 'difficult' relationship with Joe Wickes and the power of a remote handclap. Stay safe, Ant Instagram Twitter
Life in slow motion.
March 21, 2020 09:00 - 24 minutes - 22.8 MBW/C 16th March 2020 As the world twists and morphs into something we barely recognise, I contemplate ways to deal with the overload. But not before I try a spot of device match-making & recall a moment that still makes my eyes water. Be safe, Ant Instagram Twitter

Splendid Isolation
March 14, 2020 09:00 - 22 minutes - 40.3 MBW/C 9th March 2020 A week that began with a guest appearance on the 'Behind The Noise' podcast with Marc Farquhar, and then meandered through Traffic Lights, Teapots and a realisation that we are all starting to withdraw a bit.
