TIJP#48 | Carbon Mike and James Blott - Ongoing Sensemaking

In this episode I’m very pleased to present a continuation of discussions with my friend Carbon Mike and our guest for this week James Blott who has featured on the podcast previously and writes an excellent and thoughtful blog entitled The Reflective Preacher – You can find that by typing The Reflective Preacher in your browser – unlike my usual format of more straight interviewing this is a roundtable open discussion and in it we talk about - faith, political affiliations, scaling up, community vs individualism and much more.

TIJP#46 | Anon - Pieces of Life ep1 (Schizophrenia or Possession?)

In this episode I’m joined by a man who prefers to remain anonymous. I came to know about Anon through the Delingpod that he featured in alongside Jerry Marzinsky the clinical psychologist where they explored not only Jerry’s experience with patients who although diagnosed with Schizophrenia he came to learn that the voices they reported to hear where not internally manufactured but rather more entities that were within the patients mind intent on causing chaos and destruction. During the podcast Anon went on to describe his own story and experience not as a clinical psychologist as is Jerry but from a patients point of view. This lead me to look up his fascinating website and new book.    https://www.amazon.co.uk/Revelations-...
