This response to @sturdyalex.bsky.social is stuck permanently in my brain.

Ambrosia for the ears!

I kinda left but kept an eye for work.

Four weeks since I have been on X and it is actually amazing how quickly and easily it disappeared from my routine. The impact is all upside.

I am so surprised it doesn't seem to be contemplated at all. They are basically high level incels.

Amazing episode. Great story telling and very informative discussion. Loved it.

Not always.

The main share.

And Podyssey is back. Have massively missed doing this & can’t wait to get back to it once book am editing is finished!

Sticky Chocolate Pudding This is a variant on lemon surprise pudding, in which the mixture divides on cooking to produce a sponge above the thick lemony sauce which forms below. Indeed, it is known in my house as Lemon Surpri...

It’s cold. It’s rainy. It’s February at its greyest and grimmest. So I thought that #RecipeOfTheDay just needed to be this Sticky Chocolate Pudding! www.nigella.com/recipes/stic...

Thank you!

Season One is incredible. What a gift to someone like me who always meant to get around to the old stuff.

I'm sorry to hear that! I always look forward to your reviews.

Feel better soon. x

One of the best mythology podcasts ever, linking our ancient stories with their modern descendants across art and culture. Quite literally fabulous..

Maybe he wasn't. Maybe they didn't. Have a listen.

And quite the hottie, I have since found out.

Ha! Comforting for me, too.

If pouring one's love into a project matters, you can find pretty much all of mine in this Season 2 opener.

From Aeschylus to Blade Runner, Goethe to The Hulk, and Frankenstein to Musk, some stories are simply so cosmic they alter how we actually see the world.

One man; several contradictory myths.

Is he protector or disruptor? Genius or arsonist?

Season 2 of Podyssey kicks off with an absolute belter.

Really interesting from @sturdyalex.bsky.social on his podcast about far right money in uk politics etc. Such an important topic, and the amount of effort and money that already goes into systematically undermining our democracy is staggering as it is. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/q...

This is the skeet equivalent of finding an apple on my desk.

I’d listen to Alex read the phone book in that voice, but to be entertained and educated at the same time? Bargain. Go listen already.

What an absolute mind-soothing joy it is to once again listen to the smooth, friendly tones of @alexpodyssey.bsky.social - it's like sliding into a warm bath... aaaaahhhhhhhh...

Thank you Alex for your wonderful Podyssey. I've listened to all of them at least twice. Thoughtful, inspiring and genuinely interesting. Please keep it up.
