Episode 198 - Not Being a Misery Guts
46:46||Season 5, Ep. 198We 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/PodcastGrand197. Episode 197 - Prematurely Dismissing People
45:00||Season 5, Ep. 197It’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.

Episode 194 - "Benefits" of Brexit Report
43:29||Season 5, Ep. 194The 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.

How do you play the game when you realise that for rich people, money isn’t a thing you earn and spend, it’s a magical up-and-down merry go round of arbitrary financial gain.
