Therapy For Me ashortstories

W/C 10th June 2024
So the best laid plans and all that.
I was up bright and early to record this, because I had to head off to a junior football tournament that we were organising, in fact I may have mentioned it. Anyway I left Mrs.S doing the QC listen and I was hoping to publish it from pitch side.
Well that was 8 hours ago, and as you will have worked out I am just getting around to it now. IN the intervening period I have lined a pitch, set up a PA. built some goals, stood in the middle of the road and directed traffic, ensured twenty games got played on schedule and presented a load of medals and two trophies. Oh and got absolutely pi$$ wet through.
So apologies TFM is a little late, plenty of reasons but no excuses.
Stay safe.

Therapy For Me (or TFM as I now refer to it) is a bit of an audio curiosity. It started out as a mechanism for me to clear my head, with the hope that by saying stuff out loud it would act as a little bit of self-help. It's remains loose in style, fluid in terms of content and raw - it's a one take, press record and see what happens, affair.

I got into Bryan Adams before the Reckless album came out. So before Summer of 69, and before Run To You.
I had a friend called Steve Nicholson way back in the day, and we used to hang out and listen to music, and one day he put on the cassette of Cuts Like A Knife. Mind blown.
Of course the only reason I have thought back to that moment at 06:43 on a Saturday morning, is because I was trying to come up with a title for an episode that would reference the D-Day celebrations that took place this week. And Bryan had the answer.
The song is from a much underrated album called Into The Fire, which I could also have used to describe the kind of week Rishi has had.
Stay safe.

Whilst I am not a particular fan of Boris Johnson (I know, comes as a shock doesn't it...) I have considerably more time for his brother Jo. Not only did he see through the nonsense of Brexit, he also manages to perfectly articulate why tossing out nonsense like 'National Service' and 'Mickey Mouse degrees' is such a backwards step.
I caught this clip on twitter and it is one of the most balanced and intelligent things I have head in a while.
Stay safe.

Like it or not, some weeks the episode titles do pick themselves.
I am trying not to think about the parallels with 1997 too much, but it is getting hard not to at least to believe that if nothing else the outcome will be the same. And if that is going to be the case can we not get there as soon as possible.
If you aren't into the political side of TFM then this would definitely be the week to give it a swerve, and I apologise for the overly ramble nature of this week's slice. I guess I have been waiting so long for this that now it is here, I am a little overwhelmed.
Anyway let's start by enjoying watching the majestic Victoria Derbyshire in full flow.

It turns out that I have used Complicated before as an episode title, normally when I realise that I try and find something different - but bearing in mind there are two tie-ins this week, I decided to bend my self-imposed rules slightly.
If you are going to fully immerse yourself in my week, then you are going to need to start by navigating to the root cause of the problem which is a page on the JD Sports website after which you are going to have to have a look at a couple of pages on the Birkenstock website, this one and then this one.
Once you have done this, as well as listening to the explanatory notes you should be able to empathise a little with my week.
Stay safe.

I love this song, and it is worth the slightly disjointed crowbarring to be able to share it with you this week.
TBH I am becoming quite a Tears For Fears fan, they are seriously under-appreciated in the way that say Aha are. Maybe it is something to do with the early pop success that both had, but in both cases there is some serious creative stuff going on.
Anyway have a listen and see what you think, I think it's a belter.
Stay safe.
P.S After the BBC News Theme tune the second best thing at the moment is the return of Dead Ringers on Radio 4 - if only for the Liz Truss impersonation that Jan Ravens absolutely nails...
