This week we’re drinking Skegness Gin while talking to Kate Atkin! Kate is a professional speaker, trainer and facilitator who specialises – and is currently studying for a PhD in - Imposter Syndrome.  Or should we say… phenomenon. That’s right, our topic ‘Imposter Syndrome’ is the only Syndrome that isn’t a Syndrome! Try saying that five times fast…  You can find Kate on Twitter @KateAtkin, and while you’re there you can follow us @TopicGin, and the same on Instagram. But for now, pour yourself a glass, settle down, and join us. Cheers!

Should we build a new runway at Heathrow?&nbsp; Yes or No, it doesn’t really matter, it’s all about power, rationality, politics and most importantly planning.

We’re talking about community resilience this week&nbsp; Exploring the work that Dr Indrani Lahiri, a Senior Lecturer in Media and Communications at De Montfort University, has been doing. Working with the community, blending different areas, blending different people, much like blending a good gin. And what better gin to pair this with, than a rather resilient Tanqueray, which has been around for hundreds of years Cheers

Welcome to the Gin &amp; Topic Tasting Room This week we're tasting Brecon Botanicals Gin Cheers

Tasting Brecon Botanicals

Our ever-curious step-mother and step-daughter, Sarah and Áine, begin each episode with a glass of gin in hand, before launching into the topic of the week. Once the gin has been thoroughly sampled, and reviewed, they discuss what they already know about the weekly topic. It could be anything, from science to art, from political to cultural. Most importantly, they often don’t know a lot. Luckily, there is a weekly expert who shares their knowledge… and the gin. The guest may be plagued with ‘Okay, but why?’s, and ‘So, how?’s, but they get to drink through it! And, if this expert can tell our hosts that everything they thought they knew is wrong, even better. There’s no confrontation, just a genuine wish to learn and understand, and at the end of the show, the hosts spend a little time mulling over what they’ve learnt, and wondering how they can slip it into conversations to look smart.
