The

The Welcome back to Nomad Podcast. I'm Tim Nash. Very pleased to tell you, this is Joy Brooks.

Hello.

I think it's four months since you were last on Nomad, or it will be when this goes out.

Yeah.

Which makes me slightly concerned it's taking you that long to recover from your last episode.

How are you, Joy? And what have you been up to in the last

four months? I was thinking about that and thinking it's difficult to make my last three months

sound particularly exciting because I'm someone who just quite likes a nice routine. I love my

jobs. I'm happy doing that and then with the family. So I thought I could throw in probably

the coolest thing I've done in years is going to a Nick Cave concert.

That's pretty cool, to be fair.

And it really doesn't represent me.

Yeah, but I did love it.

I would have led with that.

Yeah, I don't want to give a false impression.

So I did a cool thing.

And I have been occasionally attending church meetings as well, some Eucharists.

Oh dear. So, yeah, so that's a bit out of the ordinary as well. You are the nomad host that still

goes to church, aren't you? Yeah, but that makes it sound like I go regularly. I hang around the

edges of a couple of churches now. You've committed to two churches. No, no, I haven't committed. Do not call it commitment.

Not only you're the only host that goes to church.
