After a small unscheduled break I'm back with episode 14, discussing the good side of technology and some fun memories. There's the usual Dad joke which if you're familiar with this podcast you'll know what I mean when I say this one is particularly special, and I briefly talk about the importance of taking a break.

Welcome to 2026. Here’s a gentle look at managing your goals this year, plus a Dad joke and some calm.

It’s here, Christmas Day 2025. A happy Christmas to you, and thank you for checking out this Podcast. This little Christmas gift contains some festive jokes, and even if I say so myself, a lovely soundscape. If your celebrating Christmas but just want a break from all the noise, or if your not doing Christmas and trying to escape it, this extended version will hopefully give you the chill time your looking for. Enjoy. Don’t forget to subscribe if your not already, as my regular episodes will continue every 2 weeks as usual, from the 3rd of January 2026.

Happy Christmas Eve. Have you made your list and checked it twice? In this episode I introduce some things to think about when considering child accounts and access to devices. Enjoy. The link to the Internet Matters website which is what I reference in this episode is here, along with the Calm Radio link which is in my view, a fantastic resource: https://www.internetmatters.org/parental-controls / https://calmradio.com/
