    'Being On The Front Page Of The Papers Made Me Money' // with Jodie Marsh

    Coachly: Your Personal Trainer on the App Store If you grew up in the UK during the 2000s, you'll almost certainly know Jodie Marsh. Whether it was the tabloids, reality TV or front-page headlines, she became one of the country's most recognisable public figures. But how much of that was the real Jodie, and how much was a carefully crafted persona? We begin with her childhood and the severe bullying that shaped her, before tracing her journey through Stringfellows, glamour modelling, Page 3 and reality television. We also revisit Celebrity Big Brother, her long-running feud with Katie Price, and the relentless media attention that followed her throughout her career. Today, Jodie's life looks very different. We recorded this conversation at her animal sanctuary in Essex, where we talk about her passion for rescuing animals, the challenges she's faced, and plenty of celebrity stories along the way. A quick note before you listen: you'll occasionally hear the sanctuary's residents in the background, including a particularly vocal cockerel. It's also worth saying that some of the people discussed in this episode may have very different recollections of the events described. Where appropriate, I challenge claims during the conversation, but as always, it's important to remember these are personal accounts rather than established fact. The same applies to the ongoing legal dispute surrounding the animal sanctuary, which remains before the courts. Enjoy the episode.

  6. Rehabilitation or Repetition? // Inside Barlinnie: With Former Prison Guard Frank

    Rehabilitation or Repetition? // Inside Barlinnie: With Former Prison Guard Frank

    This episode is about how justice and humanity can intersect, and what happens when you treat people like they can still be more than the worst thing they’ve ever done. I’m viscerally aware of how serious crimes affect victims - I’ve felt that pain myself, but every conversation needs space for nuance. And in this episode, you’ll hear former Barlinnie prison officer Frank and I have a very detailed one. We discuss his expansive work history and his view of life inside Barlinnie, how modern innovations in rule-breaking make it tough to stop drugs getting in, plus the blackmail methods used against guards… We take a look at the social factors behind crime and why so many end up in a cycle of prison, addiction, and reoffending… And we explore why, in some cases, investing in rehabilitation makes more sense than a never-ending, expensive spiral. And as always, there’s loads more. Contact: seanmcdonald.podcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  7. When The Modern World Gets Too Much, What’s The Answer? // with Angela Landers

    When The Modern World Gets Too Much, What’s The Answer? // with Angela Landers

    Angela Landers is a teacher of transcendental meditation at the TM Centre in Glasgow, recently displaced following the vape-shop fire on Union Street. In this conversation, we explore what transcendental meditation actually is, what it does to the mind and body, and why more people are turning inwards in a world that feels increasingly loud, constant, and overwhelming. We get into the crossover between science and long-standing spiritual practices, how attention and awareness shape our experience, and whether looking inward offers something that modern life doesn’t. I’m not offering a neat solution, because there isn’t one. I’m just asking the right questions. If life feels like too much at times, and you find yourself constantly looking outward for something to settle that, this might shift your perspective. contact: seanmcdonald.podcast@gmail.com TM Glasgow Hosted on Acast.

  8. Six Marathons in Six Days Across the Sahara // with Derek McEwan

    Six Marathons in Six Days Across the Sahara // with Derek McEwan

    Derek McEwan is preparing to take on the Marathon des Sables, a six-day, 250km ultra-marathon across the Sahara, where runners carry their own supplies and face extreme heat and cold. He’s doing it to raise money for the Catherine McEwan Foundation, set up in memory of his mum, who died aged 37 after living with Inflammatory Bowel Disease for 21 years. The charity supports people dealing with chronic pain, fatigue, and the daily realities of IBD. To understand the challenge, I joined Derek in a 35°C heat chamber session with humidity and reduced oxygen. Even over an hour, the strain on breathing, heart rate, and effort levels was clear, offering a glimpse into both the race conditions and the ongoing reality for those living with IBD. contact: seanmcdonald.podcast@gmail.com Catherine McEwan Foundation Hosted on Acast.
