Podcast appearances and mentions of Matt Dawson

Gareth Edwards, Martin Johnson or Willie John McBride? Who is the most iconic British & Irish Lion of all time? In the first episode of a new six-part series, Matt Dawson and Jamie Roberts join Chris to answer that very question. How many Wales legends of the 70s make the cut? Do any coaches make the list? Find out which former Irish and Lions captain misses out. Plus, Matt reveals which Lions legend inspired his dad to give him two middle names.

The wait is over! Bath are Premiership champions again. They ended a 29-year wait for the biggest prize in English rugby with a narrow win over Leicester. Chris, Ashy and Matt Dawson are at Twickenham to bring you reaction to a momentous day for Bath. Finn Russell tells us what it means to clinch the treble and explains why he decided to pass to Max Ojomoh when he was clean through. We also assess where it went wrong for Leicester and whether Dan Cole should have seen yellow for his collision with Finn Russell. And what does the future hold for Leicester with so many key departures at the end of this season.

Kevin Anderson's The Late Marx's Revolutionary Roads: Colonialism, Gender, and Indigenous Communism (Verso, 2025) encourages to look again at the intellectual and political work of a figure some may assume has been exhausted: Karl Marx. Following on from his earlier landmark study Marx at the Margins: On Nationalism, Ethnicity and Non-Western Societies (University of Chicago Press, 2016), this volume turns specifically to the ‘late Marx'. In this period (1869-82), Marx spent much of his time engrossed in the study of colonialism, agrarian Russia and India, Indigenous societies, and gender among many other less known topics of his interest. His notes, especially what come to be known as The Ethnological Notebooks, along with letters, essays and a scattering of published texts remain only poorly known (and in some cases unpublished or not yet fully translated into English) and form the backbone of Anderson's study. They evidence a change of perspective, away from Eurocentric worldviews or unilinear theories of development. Anderson shows how the late Marx sees a wider revolution that included the European proletariat being touched off by revolts by oppressed ethno-racial groups, peasant communes, and Indigenous communist groups, in many of which women held great social power. In our discussion, we highlight some of the key themes in the late Marx, bringing out the ways in which Marx is making connections across his writings, how colonial subjects in Ireland and India share commonalities and what can be seen when we look at communal social forms in Russia and among Native Americans. We also discuss why Marx can be seen as a decolonial thinker, consider what he might have produced had he lived longer and the ways in which the late Marx can be presented to students to complement his central themes of class and capitalism.

We have long lacked a biography of Erving Goffman. Partly this can be explained by Goffman's direction for his papers not to be opened to researchers after his death. This meant those who may wish to write Goffman's biography had a lack of material to draw upon. Dmirti Shalin, author of Erving Manuel Goffman: Biographical Sources of Sociological Imagination (2025, Routledge), has overcome this by developing the Erving Goffman Archives, a collection of correspondence, family histories, syllabi and reminisces which allows for this book to exist as the first true biography of the great scholar. In providing the details of Goffman's life, Shalin has provided new ways of looking at Goffman, showing how factors like his upbringing in a family of Russian Jewish immigrants, his relationship with, and the sad suicide of, his wife, his interactions with colleagues and his everyday interactions shaped his sociology. Along the way we are encouraged to look anew at Goffman's work on topics such as the presentation of self, mental health, gambling and gender. In doing so, we learn much about Goffman not just as a scholar, but as a man. In our conversation we cover the whole of Goffman's life, moving from his youth and onto the significant points in his career and their impact upon his sociology. We also discuss the archive and how it came to be and discuss what Goffman's legacy maybe for the future of democratic politics.

We're in Cardiff to bring you immediate reaction to the Champions Cup final as Bordeaux overpower Northampton to win club rugby's biggest prize for the first time. Matt Dawson and Paul Grayson, who lifted the cup with Saints 25 years ago, join Chris to pick the bones out of a thrilling and chaotic final. They discuss the impact of the injuries to Saints duo George Furbank and James Rahm early in the game and the countless TMO interventions. Damien Penaud scored twice to finish the tournament with an incredible 14 tries, but who else caught the eye for the new champions? We analyse Henry Pollock's performance in his first final and ask if Saints' run to the final was a one-off or whether English clubs can continue to compete at the top end of Europe.

In this episode, we delve into our latest biohacking experiments and share insights from recent interviews with leading experts in the health and wellness space. We discuss the concept of "bioharmonizing" with Dr. Melissa Sonners, a functional medicine approach to thyroid conditions like Hashimoto's with Dr. Heather Stone, PEMF technology with Mike & Alyssa from Align Mat, the role of genomics in precision medicine with Dr. Matt Dawson from Wild Health, and the emotional aspects of fertility with Beth Gulotta from Quiet the Clock.

Matt's journey is nothing short of extraordinary—he's summited the highest peaks on every continent, skied to the South Pole, rowed across the Atlantic Ocean, and even trekked solo across the Mojave Desert. But what makes his story truly powerful isn't just his physical feats—it's the personal transformation that came with them. After struggling with mental health challenges and feeling unfulfilled despite a successful career, Matt set out on a journey of radical reinvention. His new book, Strength in Surrender, is a gripping account of what it means to push past fear, surrender to life's toughest moments, and find strength in the process. In today's conversation, we dive deep into: ✅ The mindset shifts that helped Matt overcome darkness and isolation ✅ How extreme adventure helped him discover his true purpose ✅ The lessons we can all learn about surrender, self-worth, and resilience ✅ Why solitude and discomfort can be the greatest teachers ✅ How to shift your perspective on suffering and use it as a tool for personal growth This episode is packed with wisdom, inspiration, and actionable takeaways for anyone looking to live with more purpose, push past fear, and truly earn, give, and live their life to the fullest.

Chris is joined by Ashy and Matt Dawson at Twickenham to reflect on the fourth weekend of the Men's Six Nations.The guys discuss England's 47-24 win against Italy, where Steve Borthwick's side do enough to remain ‘in the hunt' for the Championship going into the final weekend. And Wales v Scotland pales in comparison to France's high quality win against Ireland to put the Championship in their hands, albeit without Antoine Dupont available.Looking ahead to the final weekend, Ashy and Daws have a sneaky feeling that Wales could do a number on England at the Principality, with Ollie Lawrence's injury not helping either! And who could make a lasting impression on Andy Farrell in a bid to secure a place on the Lions tour?

Erving Goffman has always seen as somewhat of an enigma by sociologists and historians of the discipline. In his provocative new book Erving Goffman and the Cold War (2023, Lexington) Gary Jaworski suggests a ‘marginal man' trope has grown up around him, whereby Goffman is seen as an outsider, unconnected to broader debates in sociology and to the events happening around him as he wrote. Seeking to overcome this trope, Jaworski presents him instead as a sociologist ‘in, and of' the cold war. This involves looking anew at Goffman's work, moving away from the more frequently used concepts and looking at less studied metaphors in his work such as loyalty, provocation and secrecy. Here we see how Goffman was a perceptive sociologist of cold war America and, in so doing, can explore his connections to cold warriors, on both sides of the divide. In our conversation we explore the ways in which looking at Goffman's work via the cold war allows us to understand some of the underappreciated greatness of his work. Topics discussed include why lesser known texts such as Strategic Interaction and Where the Action Is are so important, the role that spies play in his work and why Goffman was such a fan of post-WWII satire.

Matt Dawson is a six-time world-record-holding endurance and adventure athlete who, within a twelve-month period, climbed the highest peak on every continent, skied to the South Pole, trekked solo and unsupported across the Mojave Desert and Death Valley, and rowed across the Atlantic Ocean.  Performing in the planet's harshest environments, he learned that his greatest obstacles don't originate in the outside world, but within himself. That life doesn't have to be a relentless battle against his deepest fears and shortcomings. His new book, Strength In Surrender beckons you to embrace a different path and reveals a harrowing truth: one of the greatest acts of courage is surrender. Surrender isn't giving in, giving up, or going along, but rather choosing to face and release our deepest fears in order to identify more productive ways of meeting our needs. It's a powerful, necessary step to living a life of greater purpose.  Takeaways ·      Physical challenges can help in reconnecting with oneself. ·      Disconnection is a common issue in today's society. ·      Facing fears is essential for emotional release. ·      Reality is not as concrete as we believe it to be. ·      We have the power to shape our own reality. ·      Living with purpose is crucial for fulfilment. ·      Emotional pain can lead to significant breakthroughs. ·      The journey to finding purpose can take time. ·      Engaging in physical challenges can foster personal growth. Living a life of purpose can significantly improve mental health.. ·      Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. ·      No one is truly alone in their struggles; many share similar pains. ·      Embracing discomfort can lead to profound personal growth. ·      Focusing on the process rather than just the outcome is crucial. ·      Surrendering to the unknown can lead to new opportunities for growth. ·      Personal evolution is about learning to trust oneself and others.    (Website) https://dawsonspeak.com (Facebook) www.facebook.com/dawsonspeakcharity (Instagram) Matt Dawson (@dawsonspeak) • Instagram photos and videos (Youtube) Dawson's Peak - YouTube Book:  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Strength-Surrender-expeditions-harshest-environments-ebook/dp/B0D2SFMZJM/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2XM2OC3537I9B&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.brna1_m0VBRdWat1yKILcg.R-xKuvc8u0l3zIWrQnape8tghOqQ58IhXM3rR1NMg64&dib_tag=se&keywords=matt+dawson+surrender+book&qid=1738846837&sprefix=matt+dawson+surrender+book%2Caps%2C51&sr=8-1

Sociologists have had surprisingly little to say about poetry as a topic while sometimes also making grandiose claims that sociology is/should be like poetry. These are the prompts which begin Andrew Smith's Class and the Uses of Poetry: Symbolic Enclosures (2024, Palgrave Macmillan). Drawing upon discussions with working class readers of poetry, and interviews with unpublished poets, Smith draws our attention to the ways in which poetry has been enclosed, or fenced off, from working class readers. Influenced by, though offering some criticisms, of, Bourdieu's approach to the sociology of culture, he shows us how readers become aware of this enclosure but nevertheless engage in collective understanding of the poems they are presented with. In doing do, Smith reminds us of the need to emphasise the aesthetic elements of poetry, and culture more generally, including its creative and expressive affordances. A reader of his book realises that a critical sociology of poetry needs to attest not just to the symbolic capital in who is seen as ‘legitimate' readers and producers of poetry but also how those shut off from it lose out on the uses of poetry. Our discussion covers what led Smith to pursue this work, how sociology has, and might in future confront poetry, his experiences of running these reading groups and suggests why, perhaps, we should also perhaps reject the ‘society of the segue way' and savour some of the finitude which poetry might offer.

Episode 277 of The Super Human Life podcast - How To Find Purpose & Strength Through Surrendering w/ Matt Dawson   In this conversation, Matt Dawson shares his transformative journey from a life focused on external success to one centered on purpose and service. He discusses the concept of surrender, emphasizing that true strength lies in facing challenges rather than fighting them. Dawson reflects on his struggles with mental health, the importance of self-discovery, and the realization that fulfillment comes from serving others. He also introduces his nonprofit, Dawson's Peak Foundation, which aims to inspire individuals to find their purpose through service, particularly for veterans. In this conversation, Coach Frank and Matt Dawson explore the themes of purpose, personal growth, and the journey from strength to endurance. They discuss how one's purpose evolves over time, the challenges faced in achieving world records, and the importance of balancing life, work, and passion. Matt shares insights from his experiences, including the transformative journey of writing his book, 'Strength and Surrender', which encapsulates his personal challenges and lessons learned along the way.   Takeaways Strength and surrender can coexist.   True strength is found in facing challenges.   Surrendering is not giving up, but embracing issues.   Self-worth should not be tied to performance.   Sitting quietly with oneself is a profound challenge.   Purpose is found in serving others.   External success does not guarantee internal fulfillment.   The journey of self-discovery is ongoing.   Emotional pain can lead to breakthroughs.   Dawson's Peak Foundation aims to inspire purpose. Understanding your purpose is crucial for personal growth.   The concept of 'earn, give, live your life' simplifies our mission.   Purpose evolves as we transition through different life stages.   Building skills in your 20s is essential before serving others.   World records can be achieved through perseverance and mental strength.   Experiencing the 'third man factor' can provide unexpected guidance.   Transitioning from strength to endurance requires patience and dedication.   It's important to balance personal ambitions with community service.   The journey of transformation can be documented and shared through storytelling.   Living with purpose means continuously pushing yourself outside of comfort zones.
