Guests try to convince the Positive Cynic that everyone should try doing what they do. From big to small to bizarre hobbies - what makes you feel better, and why? I’m Beckie, a glass half empty kind of person, trying to be more positive. This is my dose of cynical positivity. From book collecting to decluttering; from being outdoors whatever the weather to watching Columbo; from pole dancing to precious stones. I take a sideways look at the little things that put a spring in our step.

    Hello, I'm Beckie, and welcome to the Positive Cynic Episode 4: Eurovision. I’m talking to Rob Lilley, host of The Euro Trip Podcast and Susan Harrison, performer and Showstoppers regular, about the glorious cornucopia of silliness and sentiment that is the Eurovision Song Contest.
