Excessive Rumination: Episode 3 - Rick Jones

We've got a doozy of an episode today!
Joining me in studio is local renaissance man, Rick Jones.
I was introduced to Rick as an incredibly talented and soulful songwriter, but he's known throughout the world as, literally, one of the UK's strongest men. If ever the adage of 'gentle giant' was appropriate, it's here. But don't mistake stoicism and modesty for a lack of conviction, Rick is happy to speak his truth and let others decide how they feel on that. It culminates in a fascinating conversation about life, the natural laws of reality and how we see each other.
Content warning for this episode: This episode contains some swearing and we also dive into heavy topics including child abuse, pedophilia, rape culture and political ideologies. If those subjects are potentially upsetting or distressing for you then it might be worth giving this one a miss. We don't linger in any one topic too long, but it's worth being aware.

OH DAMN, it doesn't get much more personally special for me as far as guests go!
Michael Swaim is a professional author, comedian, actor and podcaster. He became the face of the website Cracked.com during its hey-day, the popularity of which allowed him to branch off and create his own podcast network Small Beans (which can be found wherever you listen to podcasts).
Michael is a genuine creative hero of mine so it was an honour to chat to him about his career, his new book 'The Climb' and being scared of death.
