Thoughtful and inspiring discussions with researchers from Brunel University of London today for Series 2 of The BruPod.

Had to keep the talent Catherine McDonald topped up with ☕ though!

I think it's disgusting we are taking money from the world's poorest to buy guns. It's vile but definitely not a 'difficult decision' as Labour seem to be pretending it is - plays to the reform base and has little day-to-day impact on voters.

Easy choice with horrific consequences

Always feel like I should know more about UK LGBTQ+ history - any good book recommendations to start with?

The Luis Rubiales trial today heard claims from Jenni Hermoso's brother that the then-Spain coach Jorge Vilda spoke of "personal and professional consequences" if she did not publicly agree with Rubiales' version of the kiss after the Women's World Cup final.

Well done for making it to the end of January.

Stop whatever you're doing and read a book to reward yourself.

If you don't have a book, then buy one from an indie bookshop, that way you'll be making TWO people happy.

Any recipe suggestions for twin 7/8 month olds who seem to love rice, chilli, porridge, greek yoghurt and every fruit and veg puree known to man?

Almost new year which always brings about new me discussions but all I want this year is some sleep 💤

I sense I may be waiting until 2026 for that one ✌️

Is there a word for exhausted by not working?

#matleave 👬
Word of the day is ‘forswunk’ (13th century): exhausted by work.

I like to add ‘foreswunk’, exhausted before you even begin.

On mat leave but caught up with @researchpodcasts.bsky.social latest production on one of my many walks with the boys.

Definitely recommend ep 1 which gives an insight into what it is like to live through a war and deal with the aftermath.
