Author Interview with Andrew Shanahan Episode 84 About Before and After Ben Stone is terrified. He's terrified because he weighs 601 pounds and needs his right leg amputating. He's terrified because a crane will shortly lift him from his fourth-floor flat and lower him 44 feet to an ambulance waiting below. He's terrified because he hasn't been outside in nine years and he doesn't know who will look after his beautiful dog. He needn't worry though, because the world is about to end. About Andrew Shanahan For twenty years Andrew Shanahan has been working as an award-winning journalist (Independent on Sunday Best Young Restaurant Critic, BBC Talent scheme) for the UK national newspapers and magazines about various subjects: gravy, dog suicide and what injury hurts the most* - an article for a children's science magazine which received more complaints than any article they'd ever run. After working as a restaurant critic and food writer for a decade he got fat. Impressively fat. He tried to lose weight but struggled with how the majority of weight loss advice and organisations focused solely on women. So he started an organisation called MAN v FAT (www.manvfat.com) which works around the world to support men who want to win their battle against fat. To date it has helped over 4,000,000 people and the award-winning MAN v FAT Football schemes run in the UK and around the world and are supported by The FA. Shanahan now writes fiction and comics full-time and creates stories that surprise and delight readers with humour and innovation.

Todays Spoken Label feature is the wonderful Andrew Shanahan, author of Before and After. Before and After is "Ben Stone is terrified. He's terrified because he weighs 601 pounds and needs his right leg amputating. He's terrified because a crane will shortly lift him from his fourth-floor flat and lower him 44 feet to an ambulance waiting below. He's terrified because he hasn't been outside in nine years and he doesn't know who will look after his beautiful dog. He needn't worry though, because the world is about to end. "If you’re looking for a lovable main character, an action-packed story and a load of humour and horror along the way, you should definitely grab a copy of Before and After. Gore, humour, suspense, heart – it has everything, with as many twists and turns as you could hope for." Dystopic.co.uk "Thought-provoking and inspiring, Before and After works on many levels." The British Fantasy Society ★★★★★ " This book is almost too well written, I had to stop reading to wince at some of the gory bits. I cried in parts and found myself just wanting MORE." Emma Jones ★★★★★ "I love this book - it's like Shaun of the Dead with a weight loss twist." Yo ★★★★★ "As good a debut novel as The Wasp Factory. A really stunning book and as horrible as Iain Banks' debut novel." Jeremy Smith Before and After is a must-read for anyone who loves intelligent post-apocalyptic science fiction with a twist."

Andrew "Shan" Shanahan knows about the weight of the world we all feel and he's written a cracking good book about it. His first novel Before and After is the story of a 601 lb. man who is trapped inside his home as a pandemic rages outside. Shanahan has been a journalist for over two decades, writing for some of the biggest newspapers in the world. He founded an organization in 2014 called MAN v FAT which has since helped over four million men worldwide to lose weight and get healthy. When he stepped back from MAN v FAT, he returned to his first love: writing. Alex chats with Shan about the book, the state of the world, his take on writing, and his acclaimed work to help overweight men.

How did your ‘relationship with alcohol’ actually develop? Or how about your ‘relationship with food’?  Did you choose this relationship? Or was it influenced by others?  On today’s episode, Annie meets with Andrew Shanahan, the founder of Man Vs Fat - a weight loss organization designed specifically to support men trying to lose weight.  Andrew shares how, over time, he developed an unhealthy dependence on both food and alcohol and his journey back to health and freedom from both.

Cricket in The Jungle, a different Calais How will history remember the now demolished Calais Migrant Camp? Reporting of this story would suggest that the ripping apart of 'The Jungle' has been a narrative of human suffering and hopelessness - but perhaps there's more to tell. Journalist Rosamund Urwin visited the camp in its final weeks and returned home determined to do something. Her partner, Charlie Campbell, is a publisher and captain of The Authors cricket team. Together, they returned to The Jungle with bats, balls and stumps and played cricket with those they found there. How much of a difference do they think they made that day and is that where there involvement with those refugees ended? Who'd be a Host? Is London's Olympic Stadium fit to host Premier League football? There'll be extra policing when West Ham host Stoke City on Saturday, a reaction to rival fans clashing during last week's League Cup tie against Chelsea. The cost of converting the venue for Football is also now the subject of an enquiry, ordered by London's Mayor. What did London get wrong, and why do host cities and nations appear to make similar mistakes? Is there a 'How To' checklist which potential bidders should be looking at before entering any race? Professor Mikkel Draebye believes that there is. He's an expert in Strategy, Entrepreneurship & Sports Management. Based in Milan, he's recently seen Rome pull out of the race for the 2024 Olympic Games - but believes that's actually a positive ... suggesting a greater "maturity" now with bidding cities weighing risk against reward. How can you pedal a bicycle if you're paralysed? What you'll need is Functional Electrical Stimulation. F.E.S uses electric pulses to activate the leg muscles and get them pedalling. The technology has been showcased at what's been dubbed the very first "Bionic Olympics". Actually called The Cybathlon, last month's event held just outside Stockholm was all about assistive technology and a glimpse of the future in terms of how people with disabilities might be able to overcome day-to-day practical challenges. Susie Dent's Secret Language The 'professional eavesdropper' Susie Dent has been tuning into other people's conversations all her life. She tells Sportshour how she's uncovered the secret language of popular culture 'tribes' ... words that bin men, solicitors and cabin crew use only between themselves. Susie explains that sport also has its fair share of terms which make no sense to anyone else - not clichés, but insiders' speak - and shares some of her favourites with us. Man versus Fat A football league for overweight men, where you're rewarded for winning (matches) and for losing (weight). Set up early in 2016 by Andrew Shanahan, his idea is working. Thinner and fitter, Roger Smith has been among the beneficiaries. He explains why he joined MANvFAT Football and the results he's seen on and off the pitch, while Andrew himself discusses becoming an entrepreneur in the world of men's fitness after so many people signed up for such a simple idea. It's Pole Sports, NOT Pole Dancing The International Pole Sport Federation is seeking official recognition by the International Olympic Committee, with a view to one day competing at the Games. But what is Pole Sports? IPSF President Katie Coates tells Sportshour that, if the pole was horizontal, they'd be classed as gymnastics - but one thing they are not is exotic dance.

Andrew Shanahan is an award-winning writer, editor and publisher, and the man behind Man V Fat - a magazine aimed at supporting men's weight loss around the world. Andrew and Sam have a candid conversation about the health & fitness industry, memorable guests they have featured, and the emotional components of health & weight loss.

So much about weight loss is geared towards women, but from the emails I've received, it's clear just how much men need support and help too. Anrew Shanahan noticed this too on his own weight loss journey, which lead to him launching an online magazine, book and website, aimed solely at men. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN: The turning point that made Andrew realise he had to turn his life around How we can start to change our mindset and challenge our self imposed constraints How Andrew lost weight and the changes he made Mindful eating (for blokes!) The question to ask yourself before indulging in unwanted behaviour What you need to address before losing weight The issues specifically affecting men trying to lose weight Support for women trying to lose weight, compare to support for men The forgotten demographic in weight loss help and support Why 1 in 3 men keep the fact that they're trying to lose weight a secret FInd show notes at http://unconventionalweightloss.com/uwl-07-man-v-fat-andrew-shanahan
