What if the hardest season of parenting is not when your kids are little but when they are older?When your children become teens, young adults, or fully grown, the role you have lived inside for years quietly changes. They do not need you in the same way. The strategies that once worked anticipating, fixing, and smoothing things over can suddenly create tension instead of connection. And no one really prepares you for the nervous system shift this stage requires.In this episode Leah Davidson explores what it truly means to parent older kids without over-functioning. She breaks down how your nervous system continues to shape connection in this phase, why regulation matters more than advice, and how doing less can actually strengthen your relationship. This episode is especially for midlife parents navigating grief, identity shifts, and the discomfort of letting go without disconnecting or abandoning themselves in the process.We'll explore:Over-functioning may feel like care, but with older kids it often creates pressure and distance rather than connectionRegulation does not mean tolerating disrespect, it means responding with clarity instead of reactivityConnection with older kids deepens through restraint, not increased effort or controlPausing and regulating yourself creates more safety than fixing, advising, or rescuingParenting older kids requires shifting focus from managing them to staying anchored in yourselfLINKS AND RESOURCES:COMMUNITYMIDLIFE NERVOUS SYSTEM REWIRE COMMUNITY

Warm up your pan flutes and brace yourself for meteorites, listeners. We really hope none of you get sucked into the ground just to be used by our favorite giant pill bugs. That's right, everyone. We've made it to Frontios.    Over the course of the episode, we notice too many references to previous and future Doctor Who stories (talking about you, Moffat), the Watchers note how heavy handed they are in their naming of characters (and none of us care), Reilly comments on who the Gravis reminds him of (and it's likely not what you think), and Julie actually utters the phrase “I don't hate Turlough, guys”. We also continue to ask the age-old question: “Reilly, is Davidson the Doctor yet?”   If you would like to watch along with us, you can find this entire season available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).

In today's episode, I dive into the decisions teams need to make before they ever start a positioning exercise. I explain why positioning readiness matters, how unlaunched products lead to positioning theses rather than true positioning, and why clarity around audience, scope, and personas is essential. Also, this episode sets the foundation for a new mini-series tied to the second edition of my book, Obviously Awesome, focusing on what I've learned after hundreds of positioning workshops.You will learn:(01:34) Why I decided to release a second edition of Obviously Awesome after six years of client feedback.(04:35) How the positioning methodology has evolved from ten steps to five steps and five components.(08:38) Why unlaunched products should focus on a "positioning thesis" rather than a final positioning strategy.(09:58) The benefit of keeping your positioning loose before launch.(13:00) Why it's vital to distinguish positioning for customers from positioning for investors.(15:59) Why single-product companies should treat company and product positioning as the same thing.(17:51) Strategies for deciding whether to position a lead wedge product, a platform, or a suite of products.(22:26) How to identify the "champion" persona.—Connect with April Dunford and learn about practical positioning that accelerates marketing and sales:Work with April: https://www.aprildunford.com/contactApril's newsletter: https://aprildunford.substack.com/April's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aprildunford/April's Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/aprildunford/April's Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/aprildunfordApril's TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@positioningshow—Mentioned in this episode:* Obviously Awesome, Second Edition (forthcoming).—Get April Dunford's books and audiobooks:Obviously Awesome: How to Nail Product Positioning so Customers Get It, Buy It, Love It.Sales Pitch: How to Craft a Story to Stand Out and Win.Amazon US: https://amzn.to/49l0ZRYAmazon Canada: https://amzn.to/4ac9hgtAmazon UK: https://amzn.to/3vosDzQApple Books: https://apple.co/3xihSzCGoogle Play: https://play.google.com/store/search?q=%22April%20Dunford%22&c=booksBarnes & Noble: https://www.bn.com/s/%22April%20Dunford%22Bookshop: https://bookshop.org/contributors/april-dunford—The Positioning with April Dunford podcast: Want to make your product stand out in a crowded market?

Do you ever feel like you're doing everything “right” as a parent, yet connection still feels harder than it should? You're showing up, staying patient, trying your best… and something still feels off.In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, Leah Davidson explores a truth most parenting advice misses: your child experiences your nervous system before they experience your words. Long before kids understand logic or explanations, they feel your tone, pace, breath, and tension. That nervous system state becomes the environment they live inside.Leah unpacks how well-intentioned parents often slip into over-functioning, why meltdowns register as danger in the body, and how trying harder can actually make things worse. You'll learn why regulation, not perfection, is what builds resilience and how regulating yourself first creates the safety your child needs to settle and grow.We'll explore:Why children feel your nervous system before your intentionsHow tension, urgency, and “holding it together” shape your child's experienceThe difference between regulation and over-functioningWhy meltdowns trigger your nervous system as dangerHow resilience is built through shared regulation, not fixing feelingsWhat repair really looks like after moments of disconnectionLINKS AND RESOURCES:COMMUNITYMIDLIFE NERVOUS SYSTEM REWIRE COMMUNITY

Magic happens in the last place you'd expect it: a Mumbai hospital where patients don't want to be discharged and staff don't want to go home. Recorded live from Govardhan Eco Village, Raghunath welcomes author Radha Bhakti to unpack the astonishing culture of Bhaktivedanta Hospital on Mira Road—an all-faith, all-heart care facility built on a radical idea: treat the body, mind, and soul… and put people over profits. What started with four idealistic medical students serving Mumbai's slums has grown into a 300-bed integrative hospital where kirtan can be heard in the stairwells, spiritual care teams befriend patients as their "job," and even end-of-life care includes the kind of emotional closure most of us don't realize we're missing until it's too late. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

Midlife is often framed as a crisis, but what if it's not about everything falling apart? What if it's about what simply becomes no longer tolerable?In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, Leah Davidson explores what she calls the “Queenager” season of life, a developmental transition where capacity shifts, nervous system needs change, and old ways of pushing, performing, and people-pleasing start to cost too much. This stage isn't about becoming more or fixing yourself, but about remembering who you are and learning how to listen to your body with honesty and respect.Leah weaves together nervous system science, midlife realities, identity shifts, community, and embodiment, offering a compassionate lens for women who feel themselves changing but don't yet have language for it. If midlife has you questioning your energy, relationships, roles, or expectations, this episode invites you to slow down, release outdated beliefs, and reconnect with your capacity, consent, and self-leadership. She also invites you to come join her community:The Midlife Nervous System Rewire. https://www.skool.com/midlife-nervous-system-rewire/about?ref=06e003b61b8148ebbafd3a067f3cc2e1We'll explore:Midlife isn't about crisis, it's about capacity changingWhat once felt tolerable can quietly become too expensive for the nervous systemThe Queenager season is about remembering, not becomingRest is not a reward, it's an act of self-leadershipHeaviness is not strength, and hiding is not safetyConnection and normalization matter more than fixing or optimizingYour nervous system is the infrastructure behind every decision you makeCheck out The Constance Collective handmade Jewelry https://theconstancecollective.com/LINKS AND RESOURCES:COMMUNITYMIDLIFE NERVOUS SYSTEM REWIRE COMMUNITY

We're off to rural England, where a giant stone head is driving a group of English Civil War LARPers to a new level of intensity, while Tegan gets ready to be sacrificed as the village's May Queen. That's right – we're discussing Season 21's two-parter, The Awakening!   Join us as we discuss the dangers of LARPing taken to an extreme, the first instance of a very-familiar looking crack in a wall (even though it's not that one!), pagan sacrifices, whether Will Chandler is nothing more than a 17th Century Adric, and the problem with Andrew Varney (Tegan's grandfather), and the show's continued obsession with goo . Finally, Reilly confesses to having Master-related PTSD… we would ask “who hurt you!?” but the answer is clearly “Anthony Ainley!”   If you would like to watch along with us, you can find this entire season available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).

This is not a traditional podcast episode—it's a guided meditation experience.In this special installment from my ongoing meditation series, I guide you through The Seven-Minute Meditation That Changed My Life—a short but powerful practice designed to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and release the family roles and self-limiting beliefs that may be keeping you stuck.Many of us grow up taking on roles in our family systems—the caretaker, the achiever, the strong one, the peacekeeper—in order to feel safe, connected, or valued. Over time, those roles can follow us into adulthood, shaping how we relate to ourselves and others, and contributing to feelings of loneliness, disconnection, and emotional burnout.This meditation blends grounded psychology, nervous system regulation, and higher-self visualization to help you:Let go of old family roles that no longer serve youRelease self-limiting beliefs and inherited identitiesConnect with your highest self and inner clarityFeel more present, calm, and emotionally connectedAccess a sense of possibility beyond your pastThis practice is especially supportive if you:Feel lonely even when you're not aloneOverfunction, people-please, or feel responsible for othersStruggle with self-trust or emotional disconnectionWant a short, powerful meditation you'll actually return toListen when you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in old patterns.You don't need to think your way out of loneliness—you need a new internal experience.This is The Seven-Minute Meditation That Changed My Life—and it may become one you come back to again and again.If this meditation resonated with you, I'd love to invite you to take the next step and pre-order my book: Lonely AF - A Therapist's No-BS Guide to Feeling Less AlonePre-orders are incredibly important—especially for first-time authors.

Why context, capacity, and safety matter more than quick fixes.We are living in the age of nervous system hacks. Cold plunges, breathing tricks, humming, ice cubes, and viral “regulation” tips are everywhere. And while some of them can absolutely help in the moment, they are often misunderstood and misused.In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, Leah Davidson breaks down why nervous system hacks are not the problem, but relying on them as a strategy is. Leah explains how and why certain hacks work, the real physiology behind them, and why they can sometimes make people feel worse instead of better. Most importantly, she reframes regulation as something that happens through safety and capacity, not pressure or performance.If you have ever tried a nervous system tool and thought, “Why isn't this working for me?”, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and a more realistic way to understand what your body actually needs.We'll explore:Hacks are moment management tools, not nervous system healingIf a hack does not work, it is information, not failureYour nervous system responds to cues of safety, not force or pressureCapacity determines whether a tool can land or notSimple sensory inputs work because they engage real biologyRegulation comes from safety first, not after you do things “right”LINKS AND RESOURCES:COMMUNITYNERVOUS SYSTEM JOURNALING CLUB : Doodle, journal and heal in community.Join here: https://www.skool.com/nervous-system-journaling-club/aboutMENTAL HEALTH STATIONERY - RESILIENT BRILLIANCE PRODUCTS:1) RESILIENCE JOURNAL: A guided journal for emotional well-being and nervous system care Amazon US - https://a.co/d/7DpuyVj2) MY SAFE SPACE : AFFIRMATION AND JOURNAL PROMPT SETAmazon US - https://a.co/d/2mANQs4LET'S STAY CONNECTEDINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching Hosted on Acast.

We kick off Season 21 with a story that has ranked as the 15th worst Doctor Who story of all time in TWO separate Doctor Who Magazine polls – Warriors of the Deep! We all collectively say “there should have been another way!” as we dissect this and try to figure out what went wrong and why.   Join us as we let out a collective sigh at what is easily one of the worst Season openers that we've had so far in our odyssey through the show. Naturally, we have to touch on the bad lighting, the extremely questionable decision to allow Ingrid Pitt to use karate against the Myrka, the “cold war make-up” look, fart jokes, and how any sort of nuance has been stripped away from the Silurians and the Sea Devils in this story. Somehow, we still find a few things to compliment this story on.

As the year comes to a close, not everything fits neatly into good or bad. Some years hold both expansion and exhaustion, clarity and confusion, joy and grief, all at the same time.In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, Leah Davidson looks back on a true 50/50 year. One that brought meaningful wins, nervous system lessons, grief, growth, and recalibration. Instead of forcing a positive spin or tying everything up with a bow, Leah walks through what this year actually required of her and how those experiences shaped her capacity, boundaries, relationships, faith, rest, and sense of self.If your year felt complicated, unfinished, or emotionally layered, this episode offers a grounded and compassionate way to reflect without judgment, urgency, or self abandonment.We'll explore:Capacity matters more than commitment, even when you love the workKeeping the peace for others can cost you your own internal peaceStress accumulates quietly and shows up long after it beginsAlignment conserves more energy than discipline ever couldRegulation is not the reward for doing things right, it comes firstLINKS AND RESOURCES:COMMUNITYNERVOUS SYSTEM JOURNALING CLUB : Doodle, journal and heal in community.Join here: https://www.skool.com/nervous-system-journaling-club/aboutMENTAL HEALTH STATIONERY - RESILIENT BRILLIANCE PRODUCTS:1) RESILIENCE JOURNAL: A guided journal for emotional well-being and nervous system care Amazon US - https://a.co/d/7DpuyVj2) MY SAFE SPACE : AFFIRMATION AND JOURNAL PROMPT SETAmazon US - https://a.co/d/2mANQs4LET'S STAY CONNECTEDINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching Hosted on Acast.

The holidays often bring up reactions that feel bigger than the moment. Tension, irritability, overfunctioning, or the urge to withdraw can show up even when nothing is “wrong.”In this short episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, Leah Davidson explains why emotionally loaded days like the holidays affect the nervous system more than we expect. Your body is not responding to the calendar. It is responding to patterns it has learned over time.Leah walks through how past experiences, family roles, sensory cues, and relational dynamics quietly shape how your nervous system prepares for these days. You will learn why logic alone does not settle the body, why these reactions are not flaws, and how to gently bring yourself back into the present without forcing cheer or pushing through discomfort.This episode offers a compassionate reframe for navigating the holidays with more awareness, self trust, and choice, especially if this season feels complicated or tender.We'll explore:• Your nervous system responds to patterns, not events• Holiday reactions often come from history, not present danger• Strong emotions and coping behaviours are learned survival strategies• Awareness without judgment can be regulating on its own• You do not need to force happiness or override your body• Small moments of orientation help bring your system back to the presentLINKS AND RESOURCES:COMMUNITYNERVOUS SYSTEM JOURNALING CLUB : Doodle, journal and heal in community.Join here: https://www.skool.com/nervous-system-journaling-club/aboutMENTAL HEALTH STATIONERY - RESILIENT BRILLIANCE PRODUCTS:1) RESILIENCE JOURNAL: A guided journal for emotional well-being and nervous system care Amazon US - https://a.co/d/7DpuyVj2) MY SAFE SPACE : AFFIRMATION AND JOURNAL PROMPT SETAmazon US - https://a.co/d/2mANQs4LET'S STAY CONNECTEDINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching Hosted on Acast.

As we have all foreseen, Julie has taken over the show again for our 2025 Holiday special and has done her best to find something actually Christmas-y this year. Digging into the depths of the strange children shows of the UK, we came across the wonder that is Worzel Gummidge. We tried to make due by just watching the pilot from series 1 and the Christmas special from series 3, with very mixed results.  Join us as we discuss the likelihood of both Worzel and the Crowman murdering children, Anthony wondering if this could be where Adam Sandler got some inspiration, is this really as unhinged as Julie anticipated it being, and could this whole story be potentially set in a post-apocalyptic world? Julie also wonders if she'll ever get out of the basement after Anthony's unenthusiasm of this entire experience.

If you wake up tired, feel overwhelmed by small things or can't shake tension even after the stressful moment has passed, your body may be stuck in an unfinished stress cycle.In this episode, Leah explains why leftover stress builds day after day, how it keeps your system activated and the simple daily habits that help your body finally complete the cycle so you can feel clearer, calmer and more resilient.You'll learn the real biology behind stress, why mindset alone cannot regulate your nervous system and the practical tools that signal safety to your body, including Leah's 30 second Safety Sequence.This is your guide to releasing stored stress and creating more capacity, not by eliminating stress, but by completing it.We'll explore:•Why your body stays stressed even when the situation is over• How leftover stress builds up and leads to overwhelm and burnout• The difference between stressors and true stress in the nervous system• Why you cannot regulate effectively when your life is overloaded• Simple daily practices to complete the stress cycle and restore resilienceLINKS AND RESOURCES:COMMUNITYNERVOUS SYSTEM JOURNALING CLUB : Doodle, journal and heal in community.Join here: https://www.skool.com/nervous-system-journaling-club/aboutMENTAL HEALTH STATIONERY - RESILIENT BRILLIANCE PRODUCTS:1) RESILIENCE JOURNAL: A guided journal for emotional well-being and nervous system care Amazon US - https://a.co/d/7DpuyVj2) MY SAFE SPACE : AFFIRMATION AND JOURNAL PROMPT SETAmazon US - https://a.co/d/2mANQs4LET'S STAY CONNECTEDINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching Hosted on Acast.

Episode 197: For today's guest episode I had the pleasure of talking to Simon Sandys Winsch, author of the Illustrated Tudor Dictionary. Given Simon's broad knowledge of the period I took the opportunity to talk to him about some of the entries in the dictionary that give us a view of what life was like for the Elizabethan's who went to the London theatres. We started by going back a few years into the reign of Henry 8th and discussed actions of his, the legacy of which the Elizabethans were still living with which led onto conversations about some of the struggles of the ordinary Elizabethan life.Simon Sandys Winsch graduated from Aberystwyth university with a degree in History and international politics and then became a history teacher working in various schools. It was during that career that he realised the importance of knowing topics in depth as well as the need to keep lessons informative and interesting as possible and he now puts those skills to use in writing history books.Link to the Tudor Illustrated Dictionary on Amazon UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Illustrated-Tudor-Dictionary-Simon-Sandys-Winsch/dp/1036101983/ref=sr_1_1?Link to the Tudor Illustrated Dictionary on Amazon US: https://www.amazon.com/Illustrated-Tudor-Dictionary-Simon-Sandys-Winsch/dp/1036101983/ref=sr_1_1?Support the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.

In today's episode we get not one, not two, not three, not four, but five Doctors. You heard right, everyone, we are covering the amazing story that is The Five Doctors, featuring Richard Hurndall as our replacement Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee, a light sprinkling of Tom Baker, AND Peter Davison. Join us as we try and determine just how many things “of Rassilon” we can name (hint, it's definitely more than ten).   Over the course of the episode, Diana waxes poetic about her new favorite boy (the Raston Warrior Robot), though we all wonder just where he keeps those short spears, Julie gets her ten seconds of Jamie so we know she's ecstatic, Reilly continues to dislike most things that go “squish” as we experience one of the Cybermen's death, and Anthony gets to truly relish the fact that the rest of us mainly understand his nostalgia for this story. We also wonder where Terrence Dicks kept his checklist as he was writing this story and upset that Peter Moffat somehow missed the memo for letting Jon Pertwee get away with no gurning.   If you would like to watch along with us, you can find this entire season available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).

Have you ever repeated an affirmation like "I am calm" or "Everything is okay" and felt your body tense up even more? You are not alone. Affirmations sometimes fall flat because your nervous system is not in a state that can receive the message.This episode helps you understand why affirmations work beautifully on some days and feel completely off on others. It all comes down to your physiological state and the type of safety your nervous system is trying to protect in that moment.We explore the four forms of inner safety, how your body decides what feels believable, and how to choose affirmations that offer permission instead of pressure. I also introduce the Safe Space Affirmation Cards, designed to support your system with the right kind of language when you need it most.We'll explore:• Why affirmations only land when the body feels safe• How the nervous system prioritizes safety over positivity• Why positive phrases can feel threatening during dysregulation• The four forms of inner safety your body tracks• How small shifts show that an affirmation is landing• Why the right affirmation is the one that feels possible right nowLINKS AND RESOURCES:COMMUNITYNERVOUS SYSTEM JOURNALING CLUB : Doodle, journal and heal in community.Join here: https://www.skool.com/nervous-system-journaling-club/aboutMENTAL HEALTH STATIONERY - RESILIENT BRILLIANCE PRODUCTS:1) RESILIENCE JOURNAL: A guided journal for emotional well-being and nervous system care Amazon US - https://a.co/d/7DpuyVj2) MY SAFE SPACE : AFFIRMATION AND JOURNAL PROMPT SETAmazon US - https://a.co/d/2mANQs4LET'S STAY CONNECTEDINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching Hosted on Acast.

Do you ever wonder “Why am I still reacting like this when I know better?”You've read the books. You've reframed your thoughts. You've practiced gratitude, breathwork, affirmations, all the mindset tools.Yet the overwhelm, shutdown, anger, people pleasing, or overthinking still show up.In this episode, Leah shares a truth most of us were never taught:✨ Your nervous system moves before your mindset does. Your brain doesn't ask, “What's the most empowering thought?” It asks, “Am I safe?” and your body answers that question faster than thought, logic, or intention.This episode breaks down why mindset alone cannot override biology and why learning about your nervous system is not just helpful, but transformational.Leah walks you through 10 predictable shifts that happen once you understand how your system actually works from dissolving shame, to making better decisions, to setting boundaries without panic, to finally feeling more like yourself again.We'll explore:Why your reactions aren't personal failures but biological protectionWhy affirmations, motivation, and willpower disappear during dysregulationWhy sensations stop feeling scary once you understand themWhy relationships feel easier when you can name your internal stateWhy real resilience is not being unshakeable but being recoverableWhy education is regulation and why you don't have to fix yourself, just understand yourselfLINKS AND RESOURCES:COMMUNITYNERVOUS SYSTEM JOURNALING CLUB : Doodle, journal and heal in community.Join here: https://www.skool.com/nervous-system-journaling-club/aboutMENTAL HEALTH STATIONERY - RESILIENT BRILLIANCE PRODUCTS:1) RESILIENCE JOURNAL: A guided journal for emotional well-being and nervous system care Amazon US - https://a.co/d/7DpuyVj2) MY SAFE SPACE : AFFIRMATION AND JOURNAL PROMPT SETAmazon US - https://a.co/d/2mANQs4LET'S STAY CONNECTEDINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/leahdavidsonlifecoaching Hosted on Acast.

Oh boy, it's that time again... and this time, it is NOT pretty! We look back on the entirety of Season 20 with our usual combination of awards, a recap of our various metrics, and questions from our friends on social media. But how effective was this anniversary season? If you've been listening as we go along, you already know the answer to that extremely loaded question!   Join us as we unleash a torrent of Turlough-hate, Julie gets disinvited from Anthony's future wedding, we discuss how the aristocracy was once again the real villain all along, whether this season lived up to the hype of being the 20th anniversary season, and we continue to debate the effectiveness of the Ainley Master. Most importantly, which character does Reilly compare to a grilled cheese sandwich?   If you would like to watch along with us, you can find this entire season available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB). If you're a little old fashioned and prefer physical media (like our very own Anthony), you can also find it on the Doctor Who Season 20 Blu Ray box set from Amazon US (https://amzn.to/3VyxIPe) and Amazon UK (https://amzn.to/3V2IL34)   Other media mentioned in this episode*: Legend (Amazon US: https://amzn.to/4cWTxyf | Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/4eiwO0R) Hoosiers (Amazon US: https://amzn.to/4ix33wy | Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/3XpXDK8) Sam Raimi's Spider-Man Trilogy (Amazon US: https://amzn.to/3DfBEKR | Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/35e47UV)   Finally, you can also follow us and interact with us on Facebook and Instagram.

Do you ever feel like the harder you try to regulate, the more dysregulated you become? You breathe deeper, stretch longer, journal harder… yet your mind still races and your body keeps bracing.If that sounds familiar, this episode is going to feel like a deep exhale.Today, Leah breaks down why healing is not about working harder. It is about shifting your tone, not stacking more tools. You will learn how the seven protective F patterns keep your system stuck in survival, and the three powerful P antidotes that finally bring your body the cue it has been waiting for: you are safe now.This is your permission to stop performing healing and start befriending your nervous system instead.We'll explore:Why doing more regulation practices can actually send your body deeper into threat.The seven F survival reflexes your nervous system uses to protect you.The three P antidotes permission, pace, and proximity to safety and how to use them gently.Why healing happens through tone, rhythm, and relationship.How to give your nervous system daily drops of safety instead of pressure.How presence and possibility help you move through shutdown without force.

Have you ever noticed that the harder you try to heal, the worse your body seems to feel? You meditate more, stretch more, breathe deeper, and still, your nervous system won't calm down.In this episode, Leah Davidson explores the subtle but crucial difference between healing and pressuring yourself to heal. She breaks down the seven “F” survival responses: fear, focus, frustration, fight, figuring it out, fixing, and forlorn (6 of the F's are based on Dr. Howard Schubiner's work). These patterns keep your body stuck in protection mode even when your intentions are good.You'll learn why the nervous system doesn't respond to force, how healing can accidentally turn into a job your body resents, and what to do instead to create true safety and connection with yourself.If you've ever wondered why your nervous system work isn't working, this episode will help you understand what's really happening beneath the surface and how to step back into balance with warmth instead of willpower.We'll explore:Why your healing efforts can backfire when they come from pressure instead of presence.How the seven “F” survival responses: fear, focus, frustration, fight, figuring it out, fixing, and forlorn, keep your body stuck in protection mode.The real reason your nervous system doesn't respond to logic, but to tone, safety, and relationship.How healing can unintentionally turn into a full-time job your body resents.Why the goal isn't to force calm, but to invite safety through warmth, curiosity, and consistency.LINKS AND RESOURCES:

Is everyone ready for another musical number?!?! That's right, Julie brings out her songwriting skills and rusty vocal chords in order to cover the final story for Season 20, The King's Demons. We are so sorry for everyone who chose to rewatch these two episodes, but hopefully we give you a better time.   Join us as Anthony, Reilly, AND Diana all have a marvelous time in overpronouncing their vowels, Julie continues to bemoan the fact that the BBC was even more cheap than usual, we all argue about the importance of the Magna Carta, and how we all wished that this was all the Meddling Monk instead of the Master. Oh, and Diana is able to point out why Iron Maidens are maidens (hint hint: there are at least TWO reasons).   If you would like to watch along with us, you can find this story available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).

Let's be honest, no parent wakes up thinking, “Today I'm going to lose it with my kids.”But by mid-morning, the chaos hits, stress builds, and suddenly you're yelling louder than you meant to, and the guilt floods in.In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, Leah Davidson unpacks what's really happening when you lose your cool and why yelling isn't a sign of being a “bad parent,” but rather a cue from your nervous system that it's overwhelmed and braced for danger.You'll learn how to create emotional safety for your kids (and yourself), even when you mess up, and how to repair connections afterward in a way that actually builds resilience and trust.Leah walks you through her simple Safety Sequence to help you stay grounded in the moment, plus practical nervous-system-based tools to reduce yelling, strengthen boundaries, and reconnect with compassion.We'll explore:Why yelling is a nervous system response, not a moral failureHow to use Leah's Safety Sequence (Am I safe? Do I feel safe?

The Black Guardian Trilogy comes to an end in Enlightenment with a space race on Edwardian-inspired ships, where a dominatrix threatens Turlough, a creepy Eternal hits on Tegan, and the Black and White Guardians end as they started this three-story run: disappointingly. Still, it gives Anthony an opportunity to utter: “step on me, Mommy!” Just wow.   Unsurprisingly, we discuss the sartorial choices of the two Guardians (and which ones Reilly and Anthony will respectively cosplay), how “Officer Creepy” made Julie want to take a shower, the joys of sailing ships in space, the correct pronunciation of “buoy,” Captain Wrack's rack (obviously), and how Nietzsche fits into all this… and speaking of philosophy, we have a rousing debate on the ethics of throwing an Eternal into the cold vacuum of space…   If you would like to watch along with us, you can find this story available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).

Welcome, once again, to our annual house of horror special!! This year, we kickoff with, yet again, another Hammer Film. This time, we're covering The Gorgon, featuring Peter Cushing and the wonderful treasure that is Patrick Troughton. We then move onto The Blood on Satan's Claw, featuring the lovely Wendy Padbury and a somewhat subdued Anthony Ainley.    Join us as we discuss Diana's inability to recognize actors when they either sport crazy mustaches or wear spectacularly poor wigs, Julie's inability to recognize famous rock stars, Anthony's best one-word review of “Meh”, and Reilly's new job of pre-screening films for our specials for obvious reasons. Additionally, please let us know if we need yet another running metric for “the Diana uncomfortable count”.   If you would like to watch along with us, The Gorgon is available to stream on Plex (https://bit.ly/48IBlKt) and on physical media from Amazon US (https://amzn.to/430bw4N) and Amazon UK (https://amzn.to/4qti8Ti).

Have you ever noticed that your nervous system doesn't just react to what happened? It reacts to the story you tell about it.In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, Leah unpacks how the stories we carry, those we've inherited, absorbed, or created, shape the way we think, feel, and move through the world.You'll learn how these stories can become survival codes that your nervous system still follows and why awareness is the first step toward shifting them. Leah also shares three simple metaphors: camera lenses, playlists, and weather patterns, to help you see your stories with more clarity and choice.This episode is an invitation to notice your own stories and begin gently reshaping them in a way that supports safety, growth, and connection.We'll explore:How your nervous system reacts to the stories you tellThe difference between inherited, assigned, and protective storiesWhy even “positive” labels can keep you stuckThe role of awareness in shifting long-held narrativesThree metaphors that help your body and brain understand story workHow curiosity, not criticism, creates the foundation for changeLinks and Resources:

Join us this episode as we ask the big question: How does the Big Bang happen because of something that happens after the Big Bang? See if we ever find out as we discuss the second story of the Black Guardian trilogy, Terminus.   It should come as no surprise that this story garnered some strong feelings from our crew. Did Anthony really want to rewrite almost all interactions and plot regarding the Doctor and his companions? Absolutely. And did Reilly have lots of thoughts regarding redheads in this story? Seems so. But nothing beats Diana and Julie's horror in the treatment of Hansen's disease. Honestly, we really did not need a leper spaceship. Oh, and Reilly might have annoyed Anthony in his sleeping through his behind-the-scenes section.   If you would like to watch along with us, you can find this story available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).

We kick off the Black Guardian trilogy with a new companion joining the TARDIS, the return of the Brigadier, and the return of the Black Guardian (on whose head they've inexplicably put a dead bird!), as we discuss Mawdryn Undead (or, to translate it from the Welsh “Dead Man Undead”!)   Join us as we make immediate judgements on Turlough, discuss how the story plays with time in a way that pre-dates Moffat by 20-odd years, question the Black Guardian's sartorial choices, ponder why the Brigadier remembers Harry Sullivan but not Liz, Jo, or Sarah Jane, while Julie asks “why is the moustache gone?”. And don't miss Anthony teaching the crew about corporal punishment in British schools!   If you would like to watch along with us, you can find this story available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).

In this episode, relationship coach Michelle Chung sits down with host Mardi Winder to share her perspective on finding happiness and love after divorce, especially for women who are feeling pressured to jump back into the dating scene. Michelle brings both professional experience as a love strategist and a very real, personal story. She talks about how her own divorce in her 30s, after an injury that forced her to slow down, became a turning point. Instead of immediately looking for a new partner, Michelle looked inward, studying kinesiology and mind-body medicine, and slowly discovered that her marriage didn't align with her true values anymore.Michelle walks listeners through what happened when she re-entered the dating world and realized that swiping through dating apps wasn't bringing her any closer to real happiness or fulfillment. She shares stories from her adventurous travels, her artistic pursuits, and all the ways she learned to trust her intuition rather than just doing what everyone expected. Michelle and Mardi talk about how easy it is to get caught up in society's message that you need to couple up quickly, and how empowering it can be to focus on your own purpose, your passions, and your personal growth instead.One of Michelle's key messages is that women, especially those who are successful and independent, don't need someone else to complete them. She encourages listeners, whether they're single by choice or by circumstance, not to settle for less or follow the old model of relationships. Instead, she recommends letting love come naturally as a result of living authentically and in alignment with yourself. For those interested in learning more, Michelle offers a free masterclass designed to help women reconnect with their inner guidance and attract the right people into their lives without the stress of dating apps.About the Guest:Michelle Chung is a Love Strategist for high achieving women entrepreneurs and professionals, the podcast host of 'Love,Life & Energy', bestselling author of 'How to Stop Dating & Be In A Committed, Effortless Relationship' serial entrepreneur, property investor and has hacked the process to finding the right man and relationship that supports your vision, career and lifestyle without dating or using online apps.For Michelle's gift: Free Masterclass 3 Steps to Meet Your Ideal partner without dating!: https://www.michellechungcoach.com/masterclassTo connect with Michelle:Podcast: https://lovelifeenergypodcastwithmichellechung.buzzsprout.com DM and follow me on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/michellechungcoach/ DM and follow me on Linked in: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelle-chung-05550616/ Watch on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@michellechungcoach Website link https://www.michellechungcoach.com Get the Book 'How to Stop Dating & Be In an Effortless, Committed Relationship' https://www.michellechungcoach.com/ebook-stopdating Amazon US: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=how+to+stop+dating+%26+be+in+an+effortless&crid=1YSK06ASJDX05&sprefix=how+to+stop+dating+%26+be+in+an+effortless%2Caps%2C364&ref=nb_sb_nossAbout the Host: Mardi Winder is an ICF and BCC Executive and Leadership Coach, Certified Divorce Transition Coach, Certified Divorce Specialist (CDS®) and a Credentialed Distinguished Mediator in Texas.

It's Kinda 2: Electric Boogaloo – or as it's better known to most people… Snakedance! Beyond the return of the Mara, we get the return of good ol' themes of colonialism, complete with a spoiled brat heir, a difficult and ignorant historian, and a snake-oil salesman who gets his comeuppance (ironically, at the hands of snake-being!)!   Join us as we discuss what the Mara are (and how RTD has corrupted that idea), to what extent Lon was actually possessed by the Mara, how Elisabeth Sladen's husband (Brian Miller) bears a striking resemblance to Jared Harris, how J.K. Rowling may have taken some inspiration from this story, and the absolute simplicity of the plot. Additionally, Anthony challenges Reilly to cosplay as Lon.   If you would like to watch along with us, you can find this story available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).

We're kicking-off Season 20 with Arc of Infinity! This story features Time Lords doing what Time Lords do best, the return of Omega and introduction of his mutant turkey/pterodactyl thing, and some traipsing around Amsterdam. It sounds like it should be quite good. But will the Watchers think that it's the sort of bang that the season should start with – one that caused by anti-matter and matter colliding?   Join us as we discuss our total disdain for the planet Gallifrey and Time Lord society, our love of Action Hero Nyssa, the brain slugs from Futurama, how the Castellan and Commander Maxil seem to be aware of the narrative structure of a Doctor Who story, and how President Borusa is apparently very susceptible to phishing. We also delve into the question of “what is the Matrix?” – because the last time we saw it, it certainly wasn't… whatever the heck we see in this story.   If you would like to watch along with us, you can find this story available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).

Silence can be one of the most powerful tools we have but it can also become one of the most damaging. In this episode of Building Resilience, we talk about the double-edged nature of silence: when it truly helps regulate your nervous system, and when it tips into avoidance, shutdown, or even self-abandonment.You'll learn five different ways silence shows up: from a healthy reset to a symptom of trauma - and how to tell the difference. we also explore silence as a boundary, a relational message, and even as a quiet container for grief.If you've ever wondered, “Am I choosing silence from a place of strength, or from fear?”- this conversation will give you clarity, compassion, and practical insights to navigate your own patterns with silence.We'll explore:Silence can regulate your nervous system when used intentionally.Silence may also be a symptom of shutdown or trauma responses.Silence can act as a boundary, but it can also be misused as control.Quiet moments after crisis often bring grief or exhaustion to the surface.Silence in relationships is never neutral, it sends powerful messages.Awareness helps distinguish between protective silence and harmful avoidance.Want to create your own Skool Community?

We have finally made our way through the entirety of Season 19, the first run of Peter Davison as the Doctor. You all know what that means!!! It's time for our customary season retrospective, in which we look back at the entire season, using a blend of awards, metrics, and questions from our friends on social media to make our thoughts known… And man, do we make our thoughts known this time around. As always, this was a lot of fun for us to do so we hope that you enjoy listening to this as much as we did making it.   Join us as we discuss whether or not Reilly owes our listeners drink when they purposefully try to gross out Diana by using her “favourite” Doctor Who phrase (don't worry, we won't spell it out here), who actually votes for Adric's death as being the best moment of the season, who should sport a carrot on their lapel (Troughton or Baker), and how we all want a TARDIS crew who just LIKE each other. And of course, please let us know if pairing up the Dickie (awarded to Bidmead) with the Cumming just made sense this season, or no.    If you would like to watch along with us, you can find the entirety of the season available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).

Do you ever feel guilty for spending time on things that don't feel “productive”? Or maybe you've let go of hobbies altogether because they don't seem to “count”?In this episode of Building Resilience, we explore why skipping hobbies is actually wrecking your nervous system, and how bringing them back can help restore your energy, identity, and joy.Hobbies aren't just frivolous or “nice to have.” They're nervous system nourishment. They help us regulate, re-engage with life, and remember who we are outside of our roles and responsibilities. Whether it's painting, gardening, collecting, or listening to music, hobbies can pull you out of survival mode, help you find your “play zone,” and bring you back to life.If you've been burned out, overwhelmed, or stuck in survival mode, this conversation will remind you why fun, curiosity, and creativity are not optional extras, they're essential for resilience.We'll explore:Productivity pressure disconnects us from joy and meaning.A true hobby is about presence, curiosity, and enjoyment, not performance or profit.Rest has two forms: stillness (quieting) and nourishment (reigniting).Burnout often comes from doing too little of what feels alive.Hobbies guide the nervous system into the “play zone”, that sweet spot of safety + engagement.The nervous system sometimes just needs something that lets it “be.”Exploring hobbies opens safe containers for creativity, joy, and regulation.

This episode, bear with us as we meander our way through our discussion of Spare Parts. Who knew we needed to discuss fake commercials and who may secretly be Hitler while commenting on such a good Big Finish story.   Join us as we discuss our understanding of jaded scientists drinking wine to get through the day and our annoyance of a whiny teenage boy who was so susceptible to propaganda, wishing to become a cyberman. Diana and Julie both bemoan the fact that there is no closed captioning, making it impossible to understand some of the cybermen's voices while Anthony and Reilly enjoy the darkness of the story. Additionally, we have a disagreement between a reverse fanwank and a personal fanwank and the merits of them both.    If you would like to listen along with us, you can find this story available through BigFinish.com (http://bit.ly/4mGSgk7)   Other media mentioned in this episode*: Invasion of the Bodysnatchers (1950s version) (Amazon US: https://amzn.to/3AOmslf | Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/30FBMnR) Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1970s version) (Amazon US: https://amzn.to/3HxgH4L | Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/47hJBAv) Blake's 7 – The Complete Collection (Amazon US: https://amzn.to/2Zh7045 | Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/39luyGI) The Polar Express (Amazon US: https://amzn.to/45SjONR | Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/45RByZQ) Sam Raimi's Spider-Man Trilogy (Amazon US: https://amzn.to/3DfBEKR | Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/35e47UV) Robocop (Amazon US: https://amzn.to/3JgAK84 | Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/4oznw6F) Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga (Amazon US: https://amzn.to/3ptuM83 | Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/3BSULsQ) Secret Hitler (game) (Amazon US: https://amzn.to/46ZxuaX | Amazon UK: https://amzn.to/4lqpGm5)    Finally, you can also follow us and interact with us on Facebook and Instagram.

What happens when your kids grow up, and your role as their parent quietly, but profoundly, changes?In this episode of Building Resilience, I unpack the real meaning behind the shocking phrase, “I hate my kids.” Spoiler: it's not about hate at all. It's about the complex, often unspoken realities of parenting young adult children, the shifting roles, the nervous system toll, the grief of being needed less, and the bittersweet pride of watching them build their own lives.I share my own behind-the-scenes experiences, from feeling invisible in my own home when they visit, to resisting the urge to “fix” their struggles, to navigating sibling dynamics and new partners, to rediscovering my own identity beyond motherhood.This is a conversation about saying the quiet parts out loud, about letting the messy and the beautiful coexist, and about finding your footing again when the rhythm of parenting changes.We'll explore:“I hate my kids” isn't about hate, it's about change.Speaking the messy, taboo truths can be liberating.Parental roles shift, again and again.Parenting adult children takes a nervous system toll.Your opinion is often no longer welcome.Partners and new family dynamics change the landscape.Envy can be a cue for self-investment.Sibling dynamics can be messy, and beyond your control.Love and grief can coexist.—-------------

Don't you just love an insane scheme by the Master? Especially when it involves disguising himself as a horrendous racial stereotype when he has no reason to be in disguise at all? Oh, and we have some wonderful product placement for Heathrow Airport and Concorde. And this story is *somehow* the Season 19 finale. That's right -we're talking about Time-Flight!   Join us as we discuss the brown-ness of the 1980s, whether the episode takes place in the Jurassic or Pleistocene era (it's the former – Reilly's right, Anthony's wrong), why the Master feels the need to disguise himself, the TARDIS repair hour, and the rather questionable behaviour and motives of the Professor. Anthony finds a way to sneak in some Tinie Tempah lyrics without a single other member of the cast noticing.

What if the way we teach kids about emotions is actually making things worse?In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, I'm diving into 10 essential truths I wish every kid, and every parent, knew about mental health.We're having more conversations about emotions than ever before, but we're still missing the most foundational piece: the body. We tell kids to calm down, to use their words, to think positive… but we rarely teach them how to feel safe in their bodies. And if you were never taught that yourself, you're not alone.From why movement is daily medicine and sleep is non-negotiable, to how breath can shift anxiety faster than any pep talk - this episode offers a practical, science-backed roadmap to help your child (and your inner child) build real, lasting resilience.We'll explore:• Why emotional education must include the body, not just the mind• How movement, breath, and sleep are powerful tools for regulation• The role of creativity in calming a dysregulated system• Why stillness isn't laziness, it's essential for growth• How to teach kids (and ourselves) that safety is something we can create• The nervous system's role in shaping thoughts, feelings, and behaviour• Practical ways to support brain and emotional health through daily rhythms• What it means to "ride the wave" of anxiety rather than resist it• That health is not a status, it's a daily practice

Do you feel like you've done all the right things - mindset work, supplements, protocols - but your symptoms still linger?In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, I share a compassionate reframe: maybe the goal isn't to fix your body… but to help your nervous system feel safe enough to stop fighting.Whether you're navigating chronic pain, illness, or stress-related symptoms, I unpack 10 powerful yet practical ways to create safety in your system without needing to be symptom-free first. From breathwork and somatic tools to environment cues and outcome-independent healing, these tools are grounded in science, self-compassion, and nervous system literacy.These aren't quick fixes or toxic positivity, they're real tools to soften the grip of suffering and begin healing from the inside out.We'll explore:Slowing down even 10% sends a powerful message of safety.Your breath is always broadcasting: danger or calm, choose consciously.The Safety Sequence grounds your body in present, not panic.Gentle movement is more regulating than pushing through.Self-talk isn't fluff, it's a nervous system intervention.Wishing yourself well is a powerful act of self-kindness.Releasing pressure to heal often unlocks healing.Your environment can cue safety without a single word.Visualization rewires your system toward possibility.Co-regulation and rhythm are not luxuries, they're medicine.

In potentially the biggest story of the Season (somehow even bigger than the Fifth Doctor's debut in Castrovalva), we have Cybermen! Androids! Gritty troopers and gritty freighter crew! Oh, and we say goodbye to a much loved (lol) companion in what is quite possibly the most dramatic way since… well… the 1960s? Yup, it's Earthshock!   Join us as we discuss how the designers on Starship Troopers must've been huge Doctor Who fans, how the Cybermen seem to have recruited Daft Punk to do their dirty work, their completely bonkers plan, how Captain Briggs is surprisingly enjoyable (even if she was played as if she were your drunken Aunt), and, of course, we have to talk about THE ending of the story. Poor Diana has to say goodbye to Adric – and she may have even shed a tear or two…   If you would like to watch along with us, you can find the this oddity available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).

What if the quickest way to calm your nervous system didn't involve meditation, mindset work, or even deep breathing, but just a pen and a few minutes?In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, Leah Davidson shares three simple, science-backed tools to help you gently regulate your nervous system, using creative expression, not perfection. These practices don't require artistic skill or profound insights. Just a willingness to explore, express, and create a sense of safety in your body.You'll learn how doodling, gentle journaling prompts, and repetitive shapes can act as regulation anchors helping you shift out of survival mode and into a state of calm, clarity, and connection.Whether you're overwhelmed, shut down, overstimulated, or just looking for a way to reconnect with yourself this episode will give you three powerful ways to feel a little more regulated in under 10 minutes.✨ Want to go deeper? These are the exact kinds of practices we use weekly inside the Nervous System Journaling Club, a creative, supportive space to build safety and resilience from the inside out.We'll explore:Visual expression helps externalise internal states.Simple journaling prompts can shift your state.Repetitive patterns (like loops or spirals) create predictability.Containment matters more than perfection.Co-regulation can happen with the page.Every time you meet your system with curiosity, you build resilience.

Do you ever feel like you're doing all the inner work, journaling, processing, consuming wisdom, but still not feeling purposeful or alive?In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, we explore a powerful reframe: healing alone isn't the goal. Living is. Using the metaphors of weeding vs planting and consuming vs creating, we'll unpack how real purpose isn't something you chase, it's something you experience, through small acts of creation and participation.We'll talk about why so many people get stuck in chronic weeding mode, what happens when we only consume but never create, and how even the tiniest moments of planting can signal safety to your nervous system.This episode is your reminder that healing doesn't have to be a full-time job, and that joy, meaning, and purpose come from doing, not just fixing. Timestamps 00:00 – That “What's the point of all this?” feeling 01:00 – Purpose as pressure: why it dysregulates the nervous system 02:15 – The weeding vs planting metaphor 04:55 – Healing = weeding, but what about planting? 06:20 – How your nervous system interprets creation as safety 07:00 – Consuming vs creating: input ≠ output 08:10 – You don't regulate from what you know, you regulate from what you do 09:10 – Chronic weeding and chronic consuming = dysregulation 10:00 – Regulation through participation, not perfection 10:40 – Let purpose reveal itself through small acts 11:20 – Journaling prompts and where to start

In this episode, we dial in our love for Agatha Christie and Charlotte Brontë, as we discuss Black Orchid. How they were able to pack so much character intertaction AND a self-indulgent cricked match into only two episodes, we will never know.   Join us as we discuss the introduction of our new favourite hero (or villain) in Gurgle Man, Sarah Sutton finally being able to show off her acting chops, the Watchers' new unit of measure: units of Adrics, and Anthony absolutely having a childhood moment with time spent around trains. Yes, in another life, he must have been a train engineer.   We are so happy that we finally have a happy little TARDIS crew, despite the darker direction of the show. We wonder how long it'll last…   If you would like to watch along with us, you can find the this oddity available for streaming on Britbox in the USA (http://www.britbox.com) and BBC iPlayer in the UK (https://bbc.in/48GSaCB).
