Content warning ** there is one reference to suicide in this episode.

Hellllooooo, we are just popping in to say we are alive....just and holding on to our sanity...just..

We don't focus on any particular theme for this episode, of course we touch upon music and its right to soothe, but yes, there is also Hamster talk, and some ill informed guesswork around exchange rates, because that is the kind of tangent we are liable to go off on. Sorry but also not sorry because let's face it Parisians are never sorry. (also some French reference's too, obvs)

We will be back with our next guest at the end of October.

We will be back soon with another great guest and full episode but in the meantime here's another Izzy vs AI and this time what was supposed to be a informative discussion about how those loveable but slightly bitey small rodents, Hamsters, may or may not respond the music descends into a fascinating insight into Izzy's favourite pastime and absolute rage fest about the pronunciation of legendary tour de force academy award winning actor Cillian Murphy's name.

Welcome! We apologise for the delay and for clarity there is no compensation on offer but you do get to hear us talk with the most wonderful Dr Lauren Speeth on her work in the area of music for hope and healing. Her bio is so extensive we can't note it below as we would no doubt run out of characters, so do check out the links below to learn more about Lauren and the great work she does.

Izzy checks in with Google AI doomsday bot Gemini about her current sad arm status.

We will be back soon with all new episodes and more on our ever so slightly changed look.

As the pod celebrates its 0.5 years of existence, we ( Izzy and Dr Becky) take some time to reflect on the previous episodes and look to what may lie ahead. There are some subtle changes on the horizon for our baby pod which we share with you during this episode as well as the usual mix of nonsense and attempts at bringing insightful and enlightening information to the airwaves.

Hey guys welcome to the fifth full episode of Soul Music. Happy Cinco de Mayo, grab a Margarita and perhaps a delicious taco and settle down to listen to our interview with Robin Allender, a man of many talents and a supreme fan of music in general.

Of course Izzy catches up with Dr Becky to close the episode and obviously you can all expect to cross talking about French music off your bingo cards.

Ahead of the next weeks new full episode, which features some hot Beatles takes*, here's another Izzy vs AI in which we thankfully conclude that Paul McCartney is not a psychopath.

*Not hot takes

Welcome to the fourth full episode in which we meet up virtually with Mitch Hall, a Holistic Health and Wellness Educator and Counsellor with a wealth of experience in how music can support, soothe and heal. We talk about his time in Africa as well as France (of course) and gain some wonderful insights as we listen to Mitch talk about his rich life so far. Of course the nonsense is never too far way and to close the episode we chat about the music that got us through March as well treating you to Becky's wonderful impression of Bernie Sanders, Izzy's not so wonderful mimicry of Count Von Count and why Izzy doesn't appreciate her shopping trips being sound tracked by songs about Coffee.
