Michael and Ivanka's Grand Podcast

Instead of worrying about whether climate change is real, they’re devoting their lives to fixing it.OUR NEW PODCAST!https://canyouseemyscreenpodcast.com Streamed Live on https://twitch.tv/michaelforrest, Friday 8th April 2022---- Stuff we made ----Squares TV https://squares.tv?ct=podIvanka’s Blog https://ivanka.blog---- This Week's Links ----[1] BRAVO WINNERS - https://brightonrestaurantawards.co.uk/ [2] Smorl’s Kitchen, Brighton - https://restaurantsbrighton.co.uk/budget-brighton-restaurant/ [3] Florida’s Don’t Say Gay bill - https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/dont-say-gay-bill-florida-ron-desantis-b2048570.html [4] Gapminder - https://www.gapminder.org/ [5] Monty Don’s Adriatic Gardens - https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00135tz/episodes/guide [6] NY Times Climate Optimism - https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/03/briefing/climate-optimism-ukraine-week-ahead.html[7] Kurzgesagt.- We WILL Fix Climate Change - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxgMdjyw8uw ---- Credits ----Talking is by Ivanka Majic and Michael ForrestMusic available on Apple Music | Spotify | BandcampPatreon: https://patreon.com/grandpodcasthttps://twitter.com/ivankahttps://twitter.com/michaelforresthttps://twitter.com/PodcastGrand

We often end up taking turns being grumpy at work or in our relationships. Sometimes it doesn’t feel fair to have to bring the energy. Sometimes all we want to do is throw a temper tantrum or sulk. How can we deal with this better, and how do we help others to recognise our own emotional labour?OUR NEW PODCAST!https://canyouseemyscreenpodcast.com Streamed Live on https://twitch.tv/michaelforrest, Friday 1st April 2022---- Stuff we made ----Squares TV https://squares.tv?ct=podIvanka’s Blog https://ivanka.blog---- This Week's Links ----[1] Michael’s unrepairable MacBook Pro - https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/MacBook+Pro+15-Inch+Touch+Bar+2018+Teardown/111478 [2] How Emotional Labor Affects Women's Careers - https://www.forbes.com/sites/melodywilding/2018/06/06/dont-be-the-office-mom-how-emotional-labor-affects-womens-careers/ [3] It’s OK to - https://twitter.com/gdsteam/status/877806951693864960?lang=en-GB [4] Our interview with Rabbi David Paskin - https://canyouseemyscreenpodcast.com/episodes/7-raising-our-remote-presentation-game-with-david-paskin[5] We Are Two - Left brain/right brain discussion - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfYbgdo8e-8---- Credits ----Talking is by Ivanka Majic and Michael ForrestMusic available on Apple Music | Spotify | BandcampPatreon: https://patreon.com/grandpodcasthttps://twitter.com/ivankahttps://twitter.com/michaelforresthttps://twitter.com/PodcastGrand

It’s all too easy to dismiss people these days but this wasn’t always possible. Subjects that can be skirted face-to-face come to the fore on social media. We talk about strategies for dealing with people who give us those red flags. Sometimes they deserve a second chance. OUR NEW PODCAST!https://canyouseemyscreenpodcast.com Streamed Live on https://twitch.tv/michaelforrest, Friday 25th March 2021---- Stuff we made ----Squares TV https://squares.tv?ct=podIvanka’s Blog https://ivanka.blog---- This Week's Links ----[1] Game Theory - Tit for Two Tats - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tit_for_tat [2] Louis Theroux - Forbidden America - https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m0014khc/louis-therouxs-forbidden-america-series-1-1-extreme-and-online ---- Credits ----Talking is by Ivanka Majic and Michael ForrestMusic available on Apple Music | Spotify | BandcampPatreon: https://patreon.com/grandpodcasthttps://twitter.com/ivankahttps://twitter.com/michaelforresthttps://twitter.com/PodcastGrand

Joe Rogan is happy to promote misinformation and extremist voices on his podcast, and many artists recently left Spotify as a result of his continued inclusion on the platform.

The British government released a report on the “benefits” of Brexit this week and it is so heavily predicated on questionable premises, and so one-sidedly targeted to a pro-Brexit audience, that it is difficult to discuss.
