    HAPPY NEW YEAR & BEN ATTEMPTS A GUINNESS WORLD RECORD LIVE

    HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM TEAM YDB. We hope your 2026 has amazing things planned. Also, to correct Ben and Claire- this is infact season 6 (not season 5 as they say in the episode. DOH)! In this episode watch Ben attempt a Guinness World Record live on air. Does he succeed? We bet you can't guess what it is! Then they duo talk about lifestyle medicine in light of Claire doing a diploma in it with Siobhan Kelleher Education. Is this something you have looked into? Hygienists and therapists are very well placed to have these conversations with patients. We hope you had a great Christmas and fantastic new year and you are feeling refreshed and ready to wow the world. Tell us what you are up to in 2026. Thanks for being on this journey with us
