Stop Drifting And Start Choosing Have you ever looked around at your life and wondered, “How did I end up here?” Not in a dramatic, everything's-on-fire kind of way—but in that quiet, soul-nagging realisation that you're not exactly where you hoped you'd be? In this powerful episode of Join Up Dots, we respond to a heartfelt email from Sarah in Cheltenham, a listener who perfectly captures what so many feel deep down but never put into words. She's not miserable. She's not living in crisis. But every morning feels the same, every evening ends in the same quiet exhaustion, and her career—one she admits she “fell into”—no longer excites her, if it ever did at all. Her question is one that echoes across workplaces, cities, and dinner tables: “Is this really all there is?” And that's exactly where we begin. This episode pulls apart the hidden epidemic of drifting through life—going from one thing to the next without ever truly making a conscious decision. From university to a “temporary” job that somehow becomes permanent, from taking advice that was never questioned to sticking with a life blueprint that wasn't even ours to begin with. We break down how most people hand over control of their lives, not in one big moment, but in a thousand small ways… until they look up and wonder how they became a passenger in their own story. But here's the truth: waking up to that reality isn't a failure. It's the start of something new. It's the moment of awareness that invites change. In this episode, we explore how to stop drifting and start designing a life that feels intentional, fulfilling, and truly yours. We talk through the moment where questioning becomes clarity—where vague discontent turns into direction. And we address the myth that you have to destroy your current life to build a better one. Instead, we uncover how tiny shifts, bold questions, and committed action can gradually steer your course toward something more meaningful. You'll hear why so many people confuse comfort with happiness, and why stability—while seductive—can become a trap if you never stop to ask “Is this what I want?” We dig into the mechanics of inertia: how once you're on a path, the world almost conspires to keep you there unless you actively push back. But we also discuss how breaking that inertia doesn't require drama. It requires decision. We invite listeners to rediscover the power of asking “why”—why they chose their jobs, their routines, their goals… and whether those answers still hold up. And if they don't? Well, that's not a reason for despair. That's a sign that you're finally paying attention. This isn't just a philosophical deep dive. It's an emotional lifeline for anyone stuck in a life that feels “fine” on the outside but hollow on the inside. We offer an empowering framework to start making shifts today, not next year. You'll walk away understanding that reclaiming your direction doesn't have to mean quitting your job overnight or fleeing the country. It starts with tuning into your life with curiosity, courage, and the belief that change is possible—even in small, steady steps. And of course, we wrap things up with a practical, step-by-step action plan to help you move from drifting to designing. Whether it's reigniting a long-buried dream, shifting your career path, or simply getting more intentional with how you spend your time—this plan helps listeners begin the process of reclaiming control without overwhelm. If you've ever felt like you're just going through the motions, if your career or lifestyle was chosen more by chance than by choice, if you've ever caught yourself saying “I don't hate my life, but I don't love it either”… then this episode is your mirror and your map. It's time to stop drifting. It's time to stop waiting for permission. It's time to take back control and build a life that feels as good on the inside as it might look on the outside. Please share this episode with someone who needs to hear it—a colleague, a friend, your partner, or even your younger self. Let's help more people recognise they're not stuck. They're just one decision away from designing a better life. #LifeByDesign #JoinUpDotsPodcast #NoMoreDrifting #WakeUpAndCreate #TakeBackControl And don't forget to subscribe to the podcast and leave a review.

Join Jim and Greg for Friday's 3 Martini Lunch as they explain how much they won't miss The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Zohran Mamdani's inability to understand why we need prisons, and a Philadelphia high school's attempt to cancel Benjamin Netanyahu..First, while they don't celebrate job losses, Jim and Greg welcome the news that CBS is shutting down The Late Show next year. They explain how Colbert and his peers poisoned late night television with relentless left-wing politics. The move comes the same day Congress officially defunds PBS and NPR, a major conservative goal for decades.Next, they react to Democratic New York City mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani, who questions whether prisons serve any real purpose and suggests people only support them for emotional reasons. And don't look now, but more and more mainstream Democrats are embracing Mamdani. Jim and Greg also laugh at GOP nominee Curtis Sliwa's brutally honest take on the legacies of Eric Adams and Andrew Cuomo..Finally, they shake their heads as Cheltenham High School near Philadelphia considers a student petition to remove a picture of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from the school's hall of fame. This leads Jim and Greg into a conversation about high school halls of fame and what criteria should be required for getting removed from a hall of fame.Please visit our great sponsors:If your business can't adapt in real-time, you're in a world of hurt.  Get the free e-book “Navigating Global Trade: 3 Insights for Leaders” from NetSuite by Oracle.  Download today at https://NetSuite.com/MARTINI No missed calls, no missed customers with OpenPhone.

New proposals to improve water quality in Northern Ireland could prove fatal for pig farming there according to the Ulster Farmers Union. The Nutrients Action Programme aims to reduce agricultural pollution in loughs and rivers and would involve limiting the amount of phosporus and nitrogen that can by spread on the land in slurry. The consultation on the programme has already been extended once and now the UFU says pigs numbers would need to be reduced by as much as 80% if the plans get the go-ahead.

In this episode, Adam Biles speaks with acclaimed author Geoff Dyer live from Shakespeare and Company about his new memoir, Homework. Dyer reflects on growing up in 1960s Cheltenham, navigating family, class, and the formation of self. With characteristic wit and insight, he paints portraits of his quietly disappointed mother and parsimonious father, capturing an era that feels remote yet familiar. The conversation explores the power of memory, the weirdness of grammar schools, the ambient presence of war, and the subtle tyranny of the English class system. Dyer discusses how language, books, and music shaped him—and how the past persists in surprising phrases and daily habits. By turns hilarious and moving, this event reminds us why Dyer remains one of the UK's most original and generous literary voices.Buy Homework: https://www.shakespeareandcompany.com/books/homework-3*Geoff Dyer is an award-winning author of four novels and numerous non-fiction books, including Out of Sheer Rage, Yoga for People Who Can't Be Bothered to Do It, Zona and, most recently, See/Saw. A fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and a member of the American Academy of Arts and Science, Dyer lives in Los Angeles, where he is Writer in Residence at the University of Southern California.

Visual Intonation Podcast – Featuring Taj Devore-Bey In this episode of Visual Intonation, we sit down with Taj Devore-Bey, a rising Philadelphia-based cinematographer whose lens is shaped as much by trauma as it is by talent. Before he picked up a camera, Devore-Bey was navigating the sharp edges of adolescence in Southwest Philly, where a life-altering home invasion forever redefined his idea of safety. At 16, he witnessed his father survive a near-fatal shooting — a moment that shattered the concept of home and safety, and later echoed through every frame of his visual storytelling. Devore-Bey's artistic journey is rooted in dualities: light and shadow, chaos and calm, grit and grace. A former high school football player at Cheltenham and a student of film and media at Mott Community College, he brings the discipline of sport and the depth of scholarship into his work. He has served as Director of Photography and Assistant Editor on Awaken: A Tale of Inner-City Violence, Crime, and Its Impact — a film that mirrors much of what he has lived and seeks to interrogate through his camera. His voice is young, but his eye is seasoned. Influenced by visionaries like Spike Lee, Terrence Malick, Ava DuVernay, and the visual mastery of Bradford Young and Chivo Lubezki, Devore-Bey crafts work that refuses to look away. Each shot is an invitation to see — not just what's there, but what it means. His commitment to empathy and perspective permeates every project, including his collaboration on Pulled Over/Pulled Under, where he worked alongside a powerful creative team addressing racial profiling and systemic injustice. Join us for a conversation that moves beyond the lens: into memory, identity, survival, and the enduring question of how art can not only reflect the world, but reshape it. Taj Devore-Bey isn't just documenting stories: he's reclaiming them.   Taj Devore-Bey's Website: https://www.tajdevorebey.com/  Taj Devore-Bey's IMDB: https://m.imdb.com/name/nm12091903/  Taj Devore-Bey's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tajdevorebey/?hl=en  Taj Devore-Bey's Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/tajdevore  Taj Devore-Bey's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/tajdevorebey Support the showVisual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante

A l'occasion de la fête de la musique, l'équipe Bababam a sélectionné quatre histoires retraçant les destins tragiques de personnalités ayant marqué d'un fer rouge le monde de la musique.   Icône au nom internationalement connu, peu connaissaient véritablement son histoire et son influence sur l'un des plus grands groupes de rock du monde. Il est aussi celui qui a inauguré le terrible Club des 27, ces légendes de la musique toutes disparues tragiquement à l'âge de 27 ans. Découvrez le destin tragique de Brian Jones, de la création des mythiques Rolling Stones à la descente aux enfers. Brian Jones, l'homme à la figure d'ange blond, mais aux démons intérieurs. Rien ne prédestinait ce jeune natif de la très cossue station thermale de Cheltenham à sa destinée, si ce n'est sa furieuse envie de vivre et de suivre sa passion : la musique. Engoncé entre un père ingénieur et une mère professeure de piano, son adolescence sous cloche préfigure la rébellion et les transgressions à venir.

1981, Cheltenham and Cotswold (Run #3), Founder: New Cotswald H3, UK Nash Historian and Survivor- 1 of 4 to attend all UK Nash Hashes

In this episode we dive into the fascinating world of British artist George Underwood — a name that resonates not only in the world of fine art but also in rock history. From designing iconic album covers to painting otherworldly portraits, George's work blends the mythical with the emotional in ways few can match.But George's story is more than just brushes and canvas — it's also deeply tied to the evolution of British pop culture. As a childhood friend and early bandmate of David Bowie, George Underwood helped shape the look and feel of a musical revolution. We'll explore how a moment of teenage mischief left Bowie with his signature eye look, and how George's artistic vision matured into one of the most distinctive visual voices of the contemporary art scene.Whether you're an art lover, a music historian, or simply curious about the minds that shape our culture, this episode will leave you inspired both through Sound and Vision.Memorable Quotes:

My guest in this week's Book Club podcast is Geoff Dyer, who's talking about his memoir Homework, in which he describes growing up as an only child in suburban Cheltenham, and how the eleven-plus and the postwar settlement irrevocably changed his life – propelling him away from the timid and unfulfilled world of his working-class parents. Geoff, in this new book, bids fair to be the Proust of Airfix models and prog rock.

Way back when in 2024 we took a trip to Cheltenham to check out galleries for a joint exhibition… the planning began. ‘Journey' came from an idea of Karen's to show how we work, from sketching in the wild (Karen) to splashing paint and navel gazing (Gaynor) to fully fledged and framed paintings. It's been fascinating to see the differences in how we create, but it's also fun to exhibit together. This week we share the successes and mishaps along the route from booking the gallery to hanging the work. Thank you, too, to all who listen, DM, send messages and have made the last nearly four years so much fun with #artchatterpodcastSign up to receive Karen's Studio News  https://www.karengeorgeart.co.uk/ and Gaynor's emails https://gaynorljart.com/pages/contactLinks and mentions:Photo by Karen GeorgeSpring Cheltenham @springcheltenhamArtist Surfaceshttps://www.artistsurfaces.co.ukKaren George Gaynor Leverett-JaquesStudio 44Ad  https://www.instagram.com/studio44ad?igsh=emJwcjRtNDdycDJpGina Belford Art https://www.instagram.com/ginabelfordart?igsh=MWQwMXpqM3Nkdml5ZA==@karengeorgeart @gaynorljart@artchatterpodcastAbout the podcast⁠Gaynor Leverett-Jaques⁠ and ⁠Karen George⁠ are both full time artists, living and working in South West of the UK, sharing experiences and the ups and downs of living the painting life.You can find more about them and their work on their websites or by following them on instagram where they share their work and practice on a regular basis. ⁠Karen George Art⁠ ⁠https://www.karengeorgeart.co.uk/⁠@karengeorgeart on instagram⁠Gaynor Leverett-Jaques⁠ ⁠https://www.gaynorljart.com/⁠@gaynorljart on instagramThanks always to our wonderful sound editor, Ben Leverett-Jaques, who also wrote and performs the opening song 'Strangler Fig'Ben's IMBD page: ⁠https://www.imdb.com/name/nm7425880/⁠ Ben's Music - Low Cinnabar: https://low-cinnabar.bandcamp.com/album/four-songs-from-the-tree

In this Final Furlong audio podcast exclusive, we reflect on two major moments that have rocked the racing world. First, Rachael Blackmore — the groundbreaking, history-making champion — has announced her retirement. From a 7lb claimer at Clonmel to winning every major championship race at Cheltenham and rewriting the Grand National record books aboard Minella Times, Rachael inspired a generation. Emmet Kennedy is joined by the man behind so many of those iconic victories, Henry de Bromhead, to pay tribute to a jockey who changed the sport forever. Then, we turn to Longchamp, where controversy erupted in the aftermath of the French 1,000 Guineas. She's Perfect crossed the line first — seemingly handing a first Classic win to trainer Charlie Fellowes and owner Basher Watts — only to be demoted after a stewards' inquiry in favour of a whipless Zarigana. What happened, and what does it say about racing's rules? Basher Watts joins us to give his first full reaction — and it's unmissable.

In the quiet elegance of 1880s Cheltenham, a spectral presence stirred unease in a grand old family mansion in the centre of town. The ghost—described as a tall, veiled woman in black—appeared repeatedly to the daughters of the Despard family, moving silently through the house and vanishing without trace. Witnessed by multiple family members over several years, the haunting became one of Britain's most documented supernatural cases, thanks to the efforts of the newly founded Society for Psychical Research, who jumped at the chance to study a haunted house, first hand.

The Punchestown Festival roars into action — and The Final Furlong Podcast team is ready. Emmet Kennedy is joined by Adam Mills, Liam Firkin, Jamie Wrenn, and George Gorman to preview a blockbuster Day 1, featuring the clash of Cheltenham heroes Marine Nationale and Fact To File in the William Hill Champion Chase. But who do the team expect to come out on top — or could an outsider flip the script? In the Dooley Insurance Group Champion Novice Chase, Ballyburn looks to bounce back after his Cheltenham disappointment — but should he even be favourite? One panel member flags a 12/1 shot to cause an upset, while another makes a powerful case for a 5/1 rival. And in the KPMG Champion Novice Hurdle, can Kopek Des Bordes land another big prize — or is he vulnerable? One Final Furlong regular thinks it's time to take him on. Full betting previews, strong opinions, and best bets for Punchestown Day 1 — don't miss it.

Emmet Kennedy is joined by the team for a bumper Final Furlong Podcast special previewing all the key races across a massive Easter weekend of racing — headlined by the BoyleSports Irish Grand National at Fairyhouse and the Sussex Champion Hurdle at Plumpton, with the British and Irish trainers' titles hanging in the balance.
