Stacy Skipper from The Deep South will be joining me on The #GSPodcast. He’ll be telling me all about his conservative Christian upbringing, his Preacher father, missionary work, his experiences as a Bible counsellor and recounting a near death experience. At some point during our chat, god smites The #GSPodcast with a plague of locusts. True story.

Back in October I extended an invitation to fellow non-believers to be a guest on a ‘planned’ podcast which would focus (mostly!) on the Christmas experience. Thankfully, I received plenty of interest from people far and wide. Phew.
The idea was to create something which would allow people to hear what Christmas means to other non-believers with varying cultural backgrounds, traditions and opinions.
My only hope is to provide the opportunity to learn something, laugh a little and reinforce the knowledge that religion needn’t be the only reason for the season.

It’s been a huge pleasure and privilege to talk to so many different and interesting people. Finding the time to juggle full-time employment, unforgiving time differences and a laborious editing process has been a challenge, but I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It’s with regret that I haven’t been able to reach out to everyone that took the time to contact me, but I’m incredibly grateful to have heard from you all the same.
Recently (Fri 12th July) I was fortunate enough to be part of The Herd Mentality Podcast hosted by Mr Adam Reakes, with special guests Mr Oz Atheist, and a young up and coming comedian, eager to make a name for himself, Ricky Gervais.
He’s going to be big one day. Remember you heard him here first.

I had lots of fun. I’m a huge fan of Ricky; I’ve been to his live shows, adore his sitcoms and hold fond memories of laughter-filled evenings gathered with good friends, cold beverages and a download of his latest podcast.
The irresistible combination of wondering what Karl Pilkington will say next, how exactly Ricky will react to it, whilst Steve Merchant tries to hold it all together has made me laugh to the point of abdominal pain. Please seek them out if you haven’t already listened to them.
It is for this reason, that hearing the disembodied voice of Ricky booming from my laptop seemed familiar enough for me to forget I was actually part of the conversation at times. And I often did. This is fine by me however, as I said, lots of fun!
A huge thanks to Adam and Mr Oz for making this happen. They were responsible for all the technical aspects and organisation respectively. All I had to do was take the day off work (already worth it), sound disappointingly Mancunian (I’m not Prof Brian Cox) and be entertained by two Aussie gents and my favourite comic. A great way to spend a morning, I hope you’ll agree.
A massive thanks to the Podfather himself for giving up his morning just to have a chuckle with a few like-minded strangers. I was really taken aback by Ricky’s generosity and praise. It’ll stick with me. Kindness is magic.
“How dare you have a go at Rihanna!” is still making me chuckle. Haha!
Thanks to anyone who has already listened and sent kind words our way. I’ll never cease to be amazed at how rewarding just having fun on Twitter has become.
Please subscribe to the Herd Mentality Podcast and check in on the previous episodes too. There’s some great stuff in there. Also, please check out the hilarious Ricky Gervais on his YouTube channel and subscribe. Go and get the guitar…
