Summary

After the year we've all just had, staying hopeful is hard, but Mick's been to an expert - bona fide entertainment legend Ruby Wax - for some tips. Lucy Nichol is back with us, chatting to positive psychology coach Ruth Cooper-Dickson about coaching and supporting volunteers working with refugees, and how to handle our own expectations regarding post-traumatic growth in the pandemic. In Jenny Off The Blocks, Jen's looking at the return of the crowd to sports events and in the Bush Telegraph we're talking Brexit, boo, The Green Nobels, hooray, and the collapse of the High Street, boo. And in Rated or Dated, we watch Home Alone to see how it looks at 30 and ponder what we'd do if we were ever trapped in a house on our tod. Oh hang on...  Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Learn more about your ad choices.
