There was a place in Leeds in the late 90s called Indigo Joes (inside Victoria Q) did the most amazing bbq baby back ribs on a hot skillet. Never been matched.

Joel we actually met at an Arvon comedy writing course a couple of Novembers ago - I’m a big Rule of 3 fan so that was a brilliant evening and lecture. Half way through ep6 BV, great to hear you podcasting again!

Joel I need to read this today! I’ve recorded a β€˜demo’ podcast ep and I’m in the middle of trying to gather 5 more contributors (herding cats) - all the time I’m like β€˜why? Who wants to hear my stupid voice? Are you embarrassing yourself?’ Etc. I want to put it away and save myself the embarrassment

It never crossed my mind I might be and really rejected it when it was first suggested to me. Now it’s so glaringly obvious to me I’m embarrassed!

I am the family joke for losing things, being accident prone, mixing up dates etc for YEARS (tip of the iceberg) but now I’m getting β€˜ADHD is not an excuse’ and I’m like β€˜but it’s an explanation??’

Got NHS diagnosed with ADHD at 47 in February. The pushback and scepticism from family members and even my partner has been really draining and I find I can’t discuss it. I also work in tv and yes, I think the industry attracts this type of thinker because where else would we thrive/survive.

I’ve tried to talk to two people about this - they’ve screamed back they hate Tim Waltz and Elizabeth Warren. Really intelligent men, but massive crypto bros who are still focused on hating democrats. I’m told to β€˜investigate the real news’.

A diverse flight crew of a gay guy, a Black man, and a woman

A gay guy, a Black man, and a woman walk into a flight deckβ€” that’s not the beginning of a joke, but just a regular day at work! There was so much DEI on this plane that we could hardly get in the air. Luckily my limp wrists were able to wrestle the heavy jet back to the ground πŸ’…πŸΌ
