Does Contain Nuts -The Podcast That Grabs Life By The Balls

We’re back with our “supposed to be once a month but not quite” podcast - Does contain Nuts  In today's 45 mins of ranting and rambling we go on about: - Material things and is it really “only poor people that say ‘money doesn’t buy you happiness”? - The problem with some mental health advice issue's by GP’s - Phil’s (massive) tackle - Why  awareness probably won’t solve the problems around mental health  - Old school keyboards that make far too much noise Kick back, get a brew on and open up your earholes… …then leave a comment and tell us precisely what you thought. Big up The Geeza and the Geordie

"The lads are back for the start of a “once a month” chinwag  Between the bald head and the slightly receding head, there’s a LOT of very useful knowledge. We help tonnes of people upgrade themselves mentally, physically, and emotionally. But if you think this is a podcast merely about boring ass life coaching you’re very much mistaken. In fact, today we’ll coach you on some VERY serious life issues, such as…. - Where ketchup should go on your plate - Does pineapple really belong on pizza  - Scrambled eggs and peanut butter (that’s not a typo) - What exactly is a “Phildip”  Plus some VERY useful info about honesty, hanging around with the right people, outgrowing your pals, and changing how we view the world  Enjoy"

110Kg The size of an average giant panda or two Scarlet Johansons (according to my secret sources) A lot of grown men would struggle to deadlift that off the floor  It’s a decent chunk of size let’s be honest  Todays guest LOST IT  Yes that’s right compadre, he lost 110Kg  Not only that but kept it off and is here today to tell us all about the epic journey he went on  Working 36hour days as a top brass in the corporate world… Stressed out to f*ck… Travelling all over the place…. It took it’s toll (a familiar story) Particularly on his health  I don’t want to give too much away because this is a fascinating insight into the life of an “overeater” and if you’ve ever struggle to lose weight?

"Ever met a black cab driver who sells horses? Thought not Well now’s your chance - enter Mr Ben Dunne A fellow Londoner and highly successful entrepreneur who turned his own life around…. …turned a passion for horses into a MONSTER of business….. …..and turned up to the podcast after being thrown from a horse a possibly breaking an arm hours earlier  (he still hadn’t been top hospital when we recorded this. Animal.) He’s an absolute gent and this hour absolutely flew by with chats about:  - Clearing the brain fog - What antidepressants did to him  - The behaviours that have caused his business to explode  - Counselling people from his cab  …and more interesting stuff than you can shake a shire horse at  Enjoy" PS.

Lock jaw…. You may associate this with yawning You may associate it with blowjobs… You may even associate it with eating a rather large apple…. But our Lee talks about his experience with this strange phenomenon in a way I can’t even find the words to describe If you thought his “lavender routine” was odd (if you haven’t seen it, check out the previous podcast), then you’re in for a real eye opener with this Also included in this hour of gold: - The fundamental laws of feeling decent  - How to worry less about tomorrow  - Lee’s terror of big books with no pictures  -  Sticking two fingers up to 3 hour utterly pointless workouts  And all the usual north V south shiznit.  Enjoy Ps. if you want to get in touch with any questions you have related to anything in this episode or not...drop us a email at  doescontainnuts@hotmail.com

Ant and Dec…. Sharon and Ozzie…. Beer and pork scratchings…. All incredible good pairings but today, we bring to you a couple to top them all Lee and Catherine I’ve had the unfortunate experience of sharing a room with our very own Lee - once Today we talk to the girl who has to endure him on a daily basis  Introducing the fiancee of our co-host Miss Catherine Howe Now she GOES IN on Lee in this episode  Opens up on his quite frankly bizarre night time routines…. His nasty “bowel emptying” habits…. And give us an insiders view into just what it’s like to live with our very own Lee Hogarth This episode is a proper rib tickler so kick back, pour out a cold one and have a good laugh at Lee’s expense ;-) As always if you have any questions at all for us mindset related or not..fire them over at Doescontainnuts@hotmail.com follow us on outs socials  @thephilhyland @lee hogarth 

"Is a roll a bap? Is a cob a sandwich? Hmmm who knows  Today we discuss this fascinating topic along with: Monitoring your own brain waves.... Why one hot day doesn’t make a summer.... Rinsing a load of cash and why worrying about it is pointless..... Why “feeling” is ALL that matters..... A RIVETING story from Lee about a woman saying the word “alright”..... And a lorra laughs squeezed into 25mins because The Geordie’s internet cut out. Got questions? Hit us up: Doescontainnuts@hotmail.com"

What percentage of people have been to Ikea and NOT had an argument? 99% Fact Lee is that 1%  Today we rattle through a quick fire shit sandwich (or “sammich” as the Geordie calls it) We talk Ikea We talk iPhones  We talk about NEEDING NOTHING but HAVING EVERYTHING And we even talk about how Lee led an unsuspecting old granny deep into the woods (ooo err) Find out what that’s all about and how we somehow seamlessly link it all back to grabbing life by the balls in this latest episode to land on your doorstep Enjoy P.S IF YOU WANT TO GET IN TOUCH WITH US AND SEND IN YOUR QUESTIONS FOR PUBLIC ROUND OR GENERAL CONTACT US AT doescontainnuts@hotmail.com

"Life isn’t fair Harsh?  Maybe True?  Yes The stark reality is that however long we are lucky enough to have on this rock spinning through space, It can be a tough ol’ time But do we make it tougher for ourselves?  We all have our fair share of ups and downs One day we’re catching some of the sexiest carp in the lake, The next day lucky to hook into a tampon and a shopping trolley  But why do some of us seem to deal with the downs better than others?  Today the lads talk about disappointment What started out as a casual chat turns into an incredibly frank, personal and emotional talk from Lee Tune in as he opens up to Phil about a family issue and talks about just how he has coped with both and incredible high, and equally incredible low this week  Don’t forget if you need help, give the gents a shout.  Find them on the usual socials @leehogarthfitness @thephilhyland or you can email us directly at  doescontainnuts@hotmail.com if you want to send in a question email is best 

“Ever blocked a toilet in someone else house? (nightmare) Ever had “Bruce Ring-Sting” as bad as our Lee? Ever had a shit sandwich? Well today there seems to be a bit of a faecal theme and these are just 3 things that go down  Plus we dive into that horrible “I’ll never escape this anxiety” feeling  You know when you feel as though you’ll be trapped in that whirlpool of emotion forever? We’ve both been there, maybe you have too? Maybe you’re even there right now? Either way have a little listen to this as the chaps dive in…..” @leehogarthfitness @thephilhyland

"Are your pants always on fire? Constantly telling dirty great porky pies? Bit of a long tongue liar? Honesty. How important to you is it? In this episode we give our two cents worth on honesty  Is it necessary to be honest all the time? Should we be truthful to people? Should we lie to ourselves? What happens when relationships aren’t built around the truth? Let this hit your ear drums then give us a shout with your thoughts."

"So what IS a real man? Some bloke covered in hair who could kill a wild boar with one bilnk of his right eyelid? Or a guy who works 60hrs a week just to keep food in the table for his fam? Maybe a shredded, 200kg deadlifter with oil stained fingers? Do men cry? Should men show emotion? So many questions that stump so many fellas Do we have the answer? Nah course not but we had a good chat about this and gave our two pence worth Fitting “molds”, stereotypes, anxiety and general men chat Mega subject, let us know what you think."

"Exercise isn’t always the greatest stress reliever. In fact it’s a pretty good way to INCREASE stress and make you feel like shite  (yeah I know, not what you’re used to hearing eh?) Today the lads talk about why the whole “high intensity” thing might be doing more harm than good Plus a load of rants on not having a mobile… ….the fact that we all end up dead anyway….. ….the art of presence and not living in the world of worry….. ….and all the usual cockney / geordie chats"

Just two lads talking.... Talking about toilet troubles..... About how Lee’s computer is haunted.... About fish catching tactics...... About lazy ways to get about town..... About flying a power kite in a hurricane.... In fact we talk about a hell of a lot of just “stuff” Normally we go off on one about actual coaching but today, we just had a chat A good old rant Nothing heavy Nothing deep Just an incredibly shallow and entertaining chat between two pals If Smooth FM was a podcast episode it would be this one - proper easy listening Get your Air Pods in and enjoy 😉

Cars... Kids.... And Camping  Ever struggled to buy a car? well struggle no more my friend  Welcome to Phil and Lees ultimate guide to car buying - - -  OK thats not strictly true. I probably wouldn't listen to us. Today we start on cars and end up meandering our way into anxiety with kids. Could you be ADDICTED to feeling crap? Maybe you chase that feeling and don't even realise you're doing it? Are you going after the wrong stuff in life? Could too much #mentalhealthawareness simply be "unlocking" more problems?  Let us know your thoughts on it....

You may think it's all about fake boobs ,egos and boring conversations... ....and you're 99% right  But there's a VERY valuable lesson we can all learn from the show A lesson all about self confidence  If you've ever looked at someone and thought to yourself "Id love to look like them"  Or "Man,I'd love to have a body like that " Or perhaps "I bet they get all the chicks/fellas" Then have a listen to this as we go off on one about what we can all learn from these tanned youngsters locked up in a house  

In the world of “feeling good” there are a few things you’ll hear people go on about all the time  Eat good grub.…. Have decent kip….. Manage stress better…. And all that vejazzle. Something that’s also ALWAYS on that list are those two words - “Morning” and “Routine” “Oh hey man, just sort your morning routine out, it’ll solve all your problems and probably cure world famine and Cornavirus at the same time”  But is a good morning routine really necessary? Is it as important as people say? We jumped in on the subject during the Does Contain Nuts LIVE show and thought it was so useful, decided to put it out as an episode To anyone who wants to make their days better? Wants a few ideas? Wants to know what Lee does? What Phil does? And what they get the folks they work with to do? This should be heard.  Then again, if you’re not fussed about having a decent day then probably don’t bother.  Watch Eastenders instead.

“I saw the Stanley knife and thought 'go on, just do it'” Our very good pal Dave Watson came on the show this week and man he’s got some tales to tell Back in the day, in the times when he wasn’t the chilled, grinning, Bristolian chappie that he is now…   …in the day when he affectionately refers to himself as “Fucked Dave”… He was an angry bastard  A tough home life saw fighting and violence a regular occurrence, one night getting slashed across the face  Depression, panic attacks, suicide and even thoughts about harming his own kids. Life wasn’t full of roses But now things are VERY VERY different for our chum from the South West  If you don’t get gripped by this then you’ve either got it on silent, or can’t hear very well  Hit play, kick back and listen to his story of turnaround because there’s a lot we can all learn from

Ever heard an American with a Geordie accent? Nor had I until we chatted to Nick She moved from sunny Newcastle to New York at 20… Married Rick our Black Hawk guest from the previous show… Set up an uber successful Crossfit gym that started in her garage…. Professionally danced all over the world….. Is part viking….. Has raised a family…. Oh and now does some exceptional work helping women and girls overcome scarring caused by treatment or other nastiness She’s got bundles of infectious energy, loads of tattoos and is well worth a listen Enjoy Ps. Go check out her page https://www.facebook.com/wearenotbroken2019/

It was either a life of gangs and drug dealing on the streets of Chicago Or something else Luckily Rick chose the latter He joined the United States military, bounced around from base to base Working his way up to becoming a Black Hawk Commander (one of the coolest titles in the history of anything) Had a real good chat all about his time growing up, time in the military, time as a State Trooper and all the cool stuff he’s seen along the way Enjoy
