    Half the team has had a lot of change happen, so we thought we'd focus on them. Glenn has a full nest again - kids are back as adults, the house is sold and his new career is underway. Stu is finding a new leas of life - long-term listeners will be able to hear the light in Stu's voice! Make sure you follow us on Spotify and Instagram to keep up with our adventures. 😁👍🍺

    New Year, New-trition! To start off 2026, we had a chat with Dan Webber, the nutritionist at Wrexham FC. We talked about food habits, about cooking with your kids, about nutritional resets and, of course, about Dan's part in the meteoric rise of Disney's favourite football team! It was both a pleasure and a bit of a challenge to sit with Dan and learn that we don't need to go big in a New Year to have a big impact. Thanks Dan! (And if this gets as far as Wrexham FC owner Ryan Reynolds, you're welcome to come on and chat to us about fatherhood anytime!!)
