What might a salon (in the French literary tradition) sound like if it were a podcast? Hosts and long-time friends, Neil & Louise, recreate what they can of the salon-aesthetic and chat about what they've each been reading and reflecting on.

Episode 33: Holding Space for eccentric colour and a multiplicity of opinion
Welcome in and pull up a chair for episode 33. Louise is planning and packing for her move to Portugal, while Neil has been Story Slamming.
A theme of owning our stories and holding space emerges and we explore the delight of seeing other people stepping into their stories. We are all about aliving here! (Yes, that word will get plenty of mileage with us)

We invite you to HYP33 and please drop us a note here on Spotify or on LinkedIn to let us know what landed & resonated with you! -
Episode 32 - The universe is in the correct place, we are aliving and wonderful!
From working at home and being nosey about people's backgrounds, to adding new words to the English language and connecting with others - it can only be the latest Hello You Podcast episode!
Nature and wonder feature heavily in this hour of frequently random chat. Men fall in ponds, cicadas sleep for a prime number of years and we talk about how a practice rooted in Aikido can enrich our worklives.
Shownotes and links are available (https://shownotes.helloyoupodcast.com) - so please pull up a comfy chair because the Salon is open! -
Episode 31 - A chain reaction involving lions, zebras and invasive ants
Well, it may sound like an entry from a bizarre caption competition (think of Have I Got News for You) but the lions making fewer zebras kills, all thanks to some invasive ants comes together in a ripple of interactions and dinner right at the end of the recording. It can only be episode 31 of Hello You Podcast!
Join us on LinkedIn and let us know your thoughts. Are you rooting for the lions, zebras, or the ants?

Episode 30 - We're available and curious (researchers - we're here for you!)
Yes, dear listeners, it is indeed episode 30! While other podcasts may go back into their archives for moments of deep reflection, Louise & Neil shamelessly pitch for research funding to lick Glacier Mice to see if they taste like Glacier Mints, or to support the academic corpus with investigations into alcohol, music and synchrony.
It does make sense (in the madcap way that HYP always makes sense). And things that we deep dive into (when we're not finding ways to invest research grant funding) include:
Playlists, musical mediation of experience and moral values
Audience synchrony during classical music concerts
The mystery of Glacier Mice (the mystery isn't whether they taste of mint, but that is also an unknown)
Mice wearing VR headsets
And much, much more!
So, please, pull up a chair, pour something warming and join us on a laughter filled exploration of all that's interesting!
And don't forget - shownotes are available, with links, for your further HYP-ing pleasure - shownotes.helloyoupidcast.com! -
Episode 29: System level levers and the individual 'shimmy'
In the brand shiny 29th episode, we start exactly how we end up going on: dancing joyfully between individual context and the bigger context, with an audio tour of Neil's 'biography shelf' which introduces the cat that came with a washing machine.
We'd love to share Episode 29 of Hello You Podcast with you. Come in, the Salon is open and you're very, very welcome! If you'd like a sneak peak, or want to explore the inspirations for this month's meanderings, we invite you to cast your eyes over the show notes here: https://helloyoupodcast.wordpress.com/2023/11/03/episode-29-system-level-levers-and-the-individual-shimmy/ -
Episode 28 - Diving down and breaking boxes
Wait - episode 28? Already?
OK, so it's been a hot minute since we last recorded. 'Busy' and 'Adulting' are mentioned...
But that's not stopped our verve for chat - and is there ever a lot to catch up on!
We start in the realms of business, mentoring and a rather exciting new proposition Louise is working on.
We reminisce about an afternoon in a basement flat (there is a point), before going further down into the intersectional feminist masterpiece that is the Barbie Movie. Allan is the unsung hero, for reasons that we explain!
We navigate moments of blonde fragility and rupture, before going under the surface again to address the pleasure - and pain - of being Generalists.
A bit of Rousseau, a bit of egg-based communication and we resurface for air, giggling and gasping in almost equal measure.
More detail, of course, in the shownotes - but for the full experience, wrap yourself up in something comfy put on a fresh pot of tea and dive into Episode 28.
The Salon is open and you're very, very welcome.
