I've been rambling on for years on my blog, and now I thought I'd start rambling on via a podcast as well. I'm eclectic; very sweary; frequently livid; perpetually confused. Topics I'm likely to cover will include gin, parenting, gin, why Original Source mint and tea tree shower gel is a fucking liability, gin, general musings on life, and a bit more gin. I believe kindness is everything, and that we should all try generally to be a little bit less of a dick.

I Know, I Need To Stop Talking... so I made a podcast Kathryn Wallace

    The Podcast Is Back!!!

    In which, after an 18 month absence, the podcast comes back!!!

    The World's Worst Podcaster

    In which it's apparently very hot; I am the world's worst podcaster; I share one of Mr IKINTST's most excellent comedy moments; Jamie makes a startling prediction; we receive surprising news; I try and fail completely to cope emotionally with the end of Beth's primary school journey; Beth smashes Sports Day; and I have an awful lot of fun with scaffolding. Oh, and I make a huge great colossal error towards the end of the podcast which I couldn't quite manage to edit out, so have fun spotting ...

Laughter really is the best medicine

This podcast frequently makes me laugh out loud to the point of snorting coffee out of my nose and if that’s not recommendation enough that you need a little bit of I know I need to stop talking in your life then I don’t know what is!!!

Love Mrs IKINST!

So pleased to hear you are doing a podcast! Have followed you on Facebook for a long time (since your celeb flaps days!) Love your brutal honesty about the world! Can’t wait to listen to more on rainy mornings in the car on the way to work.
