Along the way he wanders (as always) through boxing rants, newspaper clippings, horoscopes, the strongest animals on Earth, and memories of his beloved ferret Andre — all wrapped in that calm, rambling, sleepy style that makes it easy to drift off while half-smiling at how ridiculous the world is.🧠 Main Segments & ThemesIntro, Let Me Bore Your Pain Away & Boxing JoyOpens with the usual welcome to JasonNewland.com and reminder to only listen when you can safely close your eyes.Mentions recording Let Me Bore Your Pain Away #43 earlier in the day, which went in an unexpected direction.Shares genuine excitement that local boxer Fabio Wardley has become WBO heavyweight champion after Oleksandr Usyk gave up the belt, reflecting on following Fabio’s career from the start.Rambles happily about modern boxing politics: belts being vacated, commentators underrating fighters, and comparisons with 15-round eras and old-school rule changes.Touches on David Benavidez, Canelo, Bivol and others, wondering why some fights never happen and musing on “toughest heavyweights” in different eras.Daily Star Ramble, Fame & Social Media PlansFlicks through the Daily Star, commenting on Sydney Sweeney’s sudden mega-fame and old glamour shots of Kelly Brook.Tells a personal memory of seeing Frank Skinner in a comedy club years ago and feeling jealous of how pale he was compared to Jason’s own colouring, before musing on celebrity as an “aphrodisiac.”Talks about his Facebook group “Jason Newland’s Boring Group” and how he now posts full new recordings there once they’ve gone through Spreaker and YouTube.Explains his upload routine: six audio versions going to YouTube, then downloads the no-music version to share on Facebook; also posting full “audio videos” to TikTok, Instagram and X up to one hour.Ponders whether to do TikTok Lives for Let Me Bore You To Sleep or Q&A Friday, unsure if he fits typical TikTok live trends.Reflects briefly on his mood: struggling to get out of bed at the weekend, then suddenly feeling more productive and doing multiple recordings as his mood lifts.Civil Suits, Weight-Loss Jabs & HoroscopesWonders aloud about civil court vs criminal court after hearing about a cancelled boxing match involving Gervonta Davis and a civil suit.Reads a piece about weight-loss injections (“fat jabs”) slowing alcohol absorption and warns listeners to be careful if they’re on them — while noting he neither drinks nor takes jabs himself.Thinks about his own weight, whether he’d even qualify for such treatment on the NHS, and how people use quick fixes.Dips into the horoscope page, reading multiple star signs in his own slightly cheeky, editorial style — including Virgo (his sign) and others, poking fun at the vague and oddly specific advice while still enjoying the ritual.Strongest Animals, Dinosaurs & Size PerspectiveLooks up a list of the world’s strongest animals: harpy eagles, leopards, polar bears, lions, grizzlies, tigers, musk oxen, white rhinos, gorillas and African elephants.Expresses amazement at how much weight these animals can lift (hundreds or thousands of kilos), and jokes that no human is getting anywhere near lifting like a gorilla.Reflects on dung beetles lifting many times their own bodyweight and links this to why flies and insects seem “super strong” for their size.Shares childhood impressions from Tarzan films, The Jungle Book, and old TV shows, admitting he once assumed lions were bigger than tigers until seeing them in a zoo.Philosophises about dinosaurs not really being “gone” because modern creatures like rhinos, crocodiles, alligators and even turtles feel like living dinosaurs; remembers visiting castles on school trips and being struck by how small people must have been in the past.Main Trivia: Animals with Silly NamesFinally settles into the main Trivia Tuesday topic: animals with silly or rude-sounding names.Reads and reacts to a long list of creatures and species:Mammals like dik-dik (tiny antelope), naked mole rats, raccoon dogs, uakaris, tarsiers, sengis (elephant shrews), wolverines, honey badgers, musk oxen, maned wolves, fainting goats, and more.Mustelids (ferrets, polecats, wolverines, etc.), leading into a heartfelt tangent about Andre the ferret and the toughness of that whole family.Birds including blue-footed, red-footed and masked boobies, great tits, blue tits, marsh tits, bearded tits, go-away birds, rough-faced shags, bananaquits and others.Fish such as slippery dick, boops boops, clingfish, waspfish, spotted wobegong, long-dong-style eels, guppies, pufferfish, blobfish, lump suckers, sarcastic fringeheads and more.Reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates with gloriously daft names: hellbenders, snot otters, chicken turtles, peacock mantis shrimp, vampire squid, bone-eating snot-flower worms, dragon millipedes, velvet worms, pea crabs and others.Keeps circling back to how childish and funny these names sound, laughing at how ChatGPT previously added its own “jokey” commentary when he only wanted plain facts.Highlights a “top rude names” shortlist including slippery dick, boops boops, cockchafer, dickcissel, and the many “tit” birds, with mock-outrage at how smutty it all sounds for a sleepy trivia podcast.Vinnie, Uncle Sausages & Ferret WorldThroughout the episode, Vinnie features as a kind of co-star: whining for food, tilting his head side-to-side, and generally interrupting in a cute but slightly annoying way when Jason’s trying to record.Jason pauses the recording to get Vinnie his dinner, then continues with the animal names while watching him eat.Shares a sweet story about a neighbour’s sausage dog nicknamed “Uncle Sausages,” and how Vinnie used to “talk” to him through the front door, leading Jason to wonder who his dog was chatting to.Opens up about his long-held dream of “Andre’s World” — a big ferret sanctuary or woodland enclosure where ferrets could roam freely, be well-fed, tracked for safety, and live happy, lazy lives.

remembers visiting castles on school trips and being struck by how small people must have been in the past.Main Trivia: Animals with Silly NamesFinally settles into the main Trivia Tuesday topic: animals with silly or rude-sounding names.Reads and reacts to a long list of creatures and species:Mammals like dik-dik (tiny antelope), naked mole rats, raccoon dogs, uakaris, tarsiers, sengis (elephant shrews), wolverines, honey badgers, musk oxen, maned wolves, fainting goats, and more.Mustelids (ferrets, polecats, wolverines, etc.), leading into a heartfelt tangent about Andre the ferret and the toughness of that whole family.Birds including blue-footed, red-footed and masked boobies, great tits, blue tits, marsh tits, bearded tits, go-away birds, rough-faced shags, bananaquits and others.Fish such as slippery dick, boops boops, clingfish, waspfish, spotted wobegong, long-dong-style eels, guppies, pufferfish, blobfish, lump suckers, sarcastic fringeheads and more.Reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates with gloriously daft names: hellbenders, snot otters, chicken turtles, peacock mantis shrimp, vampire squid, bone-eating snot-flower worms, dragon millipedes, velvet worms, pea crabs and others.Keeps circling back to how childish and funny these names sound, laughing at how ChatGPT previously added its own “jokey” commentary when he only wanted plain facts.Highlights a “top rude names” shortlist including slippery dick, boops boops, cockchafer, dickcissel, and the many “tit” birds, with mock-outrage at how smutty it all sounds for a sleepy trivia podcast.Vinnie, Uncle Sausages & Ferret WorldThroughout the episode, Vinnie features as a kind of co-star: whining for food, tilting his head side-to-side, and generally interrupting in a cute but slightly annoying way when Jason’s trying to record.Jason pauses the recording to get Vinnie his dinner, then continues with the animal names while watching him eat.Shares a sweet story about a neighbour’s sausage dog nicknamed “Uncle Sausages,” and how Vinnie used to “talk” to him through the front door, leading Jason to wonder who his dog was chatting to.Opens up about his long-held dream of “Andre’s World” — a big ferret sanctuary or woodland enclosure where ferrets could roam freely, be well-fed, tracked for safety, and live happy, lazy lives.

You’re invited to get comfortable, only listen when it’s safe to close your eyes, and let your mind drift as Jason chats about leaf blowers, banana skins, strange family myths, getting older, bald spots in lift mirrors, and Vinnie snuffling around in the background. There’s no heavy technique to follow, no need for silence, and no “trying to relax.” Instead, Jason uses distraction, nonsense, and low-key hypnotic ideas to help your nervous system forget about pain for a while and settle into a looser, calmer state.🧠 Main Segments & Themes 1. Getting Comfortable & Pain Relief SafeguardsJason opens by welcoming you to JasonNewland.com, reminding you this is a chronic pain relief session.Emphasises that you should know the cause of your pain and have your doctor’s permission before listening further.Invites you to sit or lie somewhere supported, reassuring you that background sounds and imperfect conditions are absolutely fine.Notes you can keep your eyes open, but closed usually feels more comfortable.2. Leaf Blowers, Leaf Suckers & “Accidental” HypnosisLaunches into a mock-rant about gardeners using leaf blowers instead of “leaf suckers,” comparing them to vacuum cleaners and questioning the logic of blowing mess around instead of collecting it.Jokes that you might think he’s using distraction or confusion techniques, but insists he’s “just moaning about leaves”… while also explaining how distraction shifts attention away from pain and toward his nonsense.Plays with the idea that by trying to work out what he’s doing, you can end up more relaxed and even forget why you started listening… and only notice afterwards that you’ve had 10 minutes of comfort.3. Arthritis, Emergencies & Forgetting to HurtTalks about having arthritis in his lower back and how bending normally hurts — even picking up Vinnie’s poo.Describes running to help an elderly lady who fell in the road, lifting her without feeling his usual back pain because his focus was entirely on her safety (and not wanting to look like “a groper”).Uses this as a natural example of how, when attention is pulled fully into the moment or towards someone else, pain sensations can temporarily fade into the background.4. Banana Skins, Family Myths & Nan the “Porcupine”Shares a long-running story from his nan about his aunt supposedly breaking her leg slipping on a banana skin.Years later, he discovers his aunt actually slipped on ice and never encountered a banana skin at all.More confusion follows with an “ice machine” that turns out to be a simple bucket of ice, and tales of his nan telling others Jason had a “ready-made family” with kids he never had.Reflects, with affection and amusement, on how family stories twist over time and how his nan might’ve just been bored and embellishing.5. Old Relationships, Vague Answers & Frank SpencerRemembers a woman he dated years ago, travelling from London at weekends, wanting to move in with her.She repeatedly gave vague or indirect answers, never clearly saying “yes,” and eventually directly said she didn’t want him to move in.Jokes about people being vague, references “Frank” turning into “Betty” as a nod to Frank Spencer from Some Mothers Do ’Ave ’Em, and plays with the absurdity of conversations that go nowhere.Lightly touches on existential jokes about being the last man on earth, women possibly being AI, and a tongue-in-cheek aside about being on his meds.6. Boring Your Pain Away: Everyday Triggers as TherapyExplains a personal technique where he imagines stress or tension leaving his body whenever he goes to the toilet, while drinking water becomes “putting positive energy” into himself.Talks about breathing in healing and breathing out negativity, like exhaling smoke.Notes that doing this kind of thing regularly can become automatic, so you feel calmer without consciously trying.Ties it back to his recordings: even if they sound ridiculous, thousands of people fall asleep or feel better listening to his “Let Me Bore You to Sleep” and “Let Me Bore Your Pain Away” sessions, often without knowing exactly why.7. Wizard of Oz, Hiroshima & Aluminium vs AluminumRambles through The Wizard of Oz, casually spoiling the “it was all a dream” ending and only realising as he says it.Admits he was in his 30s before noticing that the farm characters at the start are echoed by the lion, tin man, and scarecrow in Oz.Drifts into pronunciation differences like Hiroshima vs. “Horishima,” and British vs. American words like aluminium/aluminum and colour/color, joking about how spellcheck must suffer and how language might have changed just to be awkward.8. Circles on Paper, Giant Sheets & Broken Kitchen BlindsSuggests an absurd “hobby” of drawing endless coloured circles on a large sheet of paper until you run out of space.Wonders about the biggest piece of paper you can buy and pokes fun at billboard posters being made of strips.Then switches to a very domestic issue: his kitchen blind was broken by a council worker fixing his window, leaving only a ripped net curtain.Talks about how, with lights on, neighbours can see him pottering about or even dancing in the kitchen while waiting for the kettle — upper-body dancing only, to protect his lower back.9. Ageing, Mirrors, Bald Spots & Lift CamerasReflects on getting older: accepting some physical limitations, but still getting a shock when he catches sight of himself unexpectedly.Shares a vivid moment of stepping out of the bath, seeing a steamed-up mirror, wiping it clear, and being startled by the “big pink blob wobbling past” — then realising it’s just him.Recalls an elevator covered in mirrors, where all he could see was his bald spot shining like a “pessimistic halo.”Mentions his door camera capturing mostly the bald patch as he goes downstairs, joking that even the camera seems to be laughing at him.10. Vinnie, Walking & Noticing How You Feel NowChecks on Vinnie, who’s buried his head under a cardigan and might (or might not) want a walk.Repeats the word “walk” to see if Vinnie reacts, but he stays asleep — another small, cosy domestic moment.Gently invites you to compare how your body feels now with how it felt at the start: noticing more relaxation, calmness, looseness, and maybe a slightly more positive outlook.Closes by naming the episode “A Barrel of Nonsense,” thanking you for listening, and reminding you to be kind and gentle with yourself because you deserve to feel safe and happy.📢 Listener Notes & OutroThis is a chronic pain relief episode in the Let Me Bore Your Pain Away series, using storytelling, humour, and gentle confusion as a way to nudge pain into the background.Jason reminds you to only use these sessions alongside proper medical care, not instead of it.Includes soft mentions of:JasonNewland.com – where you can find more free sleep hypnosis, insomnia podcasts, and boring podcasts designed to help you relax and drift off.

Arthritis, Emergencies & Forgetting to HurtTalks about having arthritis in his lower back and how bending normally hurts — even picking up Vinnie’s poo.Describes running to help an elderly lady who fell in the road, lifting her without feeling his usual back pain because his focus was entirely on her safety (and not wanting to look like “a groper”).Uses this as a natural example of how, when attention is pulled fully into the moment or towards someone else, pain sensations can temporarily fade into the background.4. Banana Skins, Family Myths & Nan the “Porcupine”Shares a long-running story from his nan about his aunt supposedly breaking her leg slipping on a banana skin.Years later, he discovers his aunt actually slipped on ice and never encountered a banana skin at all.More confusion follows with an “ice machine” that turns out to be a simple bucket of ice, and tales of his nan telling others Jason had a “ready-made family” with kids he never had.Reflects, with affection and amusement, on how family stories twist over time and how his nan might’ve just been bored and embellishing.5. Old Relationships, Vague Answers & Frank SpencerRemembers a woman he dated years ago, travelling from London at weekends, wanting to move in with her.She repeatedly gave vague or indirect answers, never clearly saying “yes,” and eventually directly said she didn’t want him to move in.Jokes about people being vague, references “Frank” turning into “Betty” as a nod to Frank Spencer from Some Mothers Do ’Ave ’Em, and plays with the absurdity of conversations that go nowhere.Lightly touches on existential jokes about being the last man on earth, women possibly being AI, and a tongue-in-cheek aside about being on his meds.6. Boring Your Pain Away: Everyday Triggers as TherapyExplains a personal technique where he imagines stress or tension leaving his body whenever he goes to the toilet, while drinking water becomes “putting positive energy” into himself.Talks about breathing in healing and breathing out negativity, like exhaling smoke.Notes that doing this kind of thing regularly can become automatic, so you feel calmer without consciously trying.Ties it back to his recordings: even if they sound ridiculous, thousands of people fall asleep or feel better listening to his “Let Me Bore You to Sleep” and “Let Me Bore Your Pain Away” sessions, often without knowing exactly why.7. Wizard of Oz, Hiroshima & Aluminium vs AluminumRambles through The Wizard of Oz, casually spoiling the “it was all a dream” ending and only realising as he says it.Admits he was in his 30s before noticing that the farm characters at the start are echoed by the lion, tin man, and scarecrow in Oz.Drifts into pronunciation differences like Hiroshima vs. “Horishima,” and British vs. American words like aluminium/aluminum and colour/color, joking about how spellcheck must suffer and how language might have changed just to be awkward.8. Circles on Paper, Giant Sheets & Broken Kitchen BlindsSuggests an absurd “hobby” of drawing endless coloured circles on a large sheet of paper until you run out of space.Wonders about the biggest piece of paper you can buy and pokes fun at billboard posters being made of strips.Then switches to a very domestic issue: his kitchen blind was broken by a council worker fixing his window, leaving only a ripped net curtain.Talks about how, with lights on, neighbours can see him pottering about or even dancing in the kitchen while waiting for the kettle — upper-body dancing only, to protect his lower back.9. Ageing, Mirrors, Bald Spots & Lift CamerasReflects on getting older: accepting some physical limitations, but still getting a shock when he catches sight of himself unexpectedly.Shares a vivid moment of stepping out of the bath, seeing a steamed-up mirror, wiping it clear, and being startled by the “big pink blob wobbling past” — then realising it’s just him.Recalls an elevator covered in mirrors, where all he could see was his bald spot shining like a “pessimistic halo.”Mentions his door camera capturing mostly the bald patch as he goes downstairs, joking that even the camera seems to be laughing at him.10. Vinnie, Walking & Noticing How You Feel NowChecks on Vinnie, who’s buried his head under a cardigan and might (or might not) want a walk.Repeats the word “walk” to see if Vinnie reacts, but he stays asleep — another small, cosy domestic moment.Gently invites you to compare how your body feels now with how it felt at the start: noticing more relaxation, calmness, looseness, and maybe a slightly more positive outlook.Closes by naming the episode “A Barrel of Nonsense,” thanking you for listening, and reminding you to be kind and gentle with yourself because you deserve to feel safe and happy.📢 Listener Notes & OutroThis is a chronic pain relief episode in the Let Me Bore Your Pain Away series, using storytelling, humour, and gentle confusion as a way to nudge pain into the background.Jason reminds you to only use these sessions alongside proper medical care, not instead of it.Includes soft mentions of:JasonNewland.com – where you can find more free sleep hypnosis, insomnia podcasts, and boring podcasts designed to help you relax and drift off.

You’re invited to get comfortable, only listen when it’s safe to close your eyes, and let your mind drift as Jason chats about leaf blowers, banana skins, strange family myths, getting older, bald spots in lift mirrors, and Vinnie snuffling around in the background. There’s no heavy technique to follow, no need for silence, and no “trying to relax.” Instead, Jason uses distraction, nonsense, and low-key hypnotic ideas to help your nervous system forget about pain for a while and settle into a looser, calmer state.🧠 Main Segments & Themes 1.

Along the way he chats about boxing, TikTok oddities, blue tack, childhood comics, smart meters, bills stuck to walls, and old reviews that still keep him going. Vinnie the red Jack Russell pads around the flat, crunches loudly at the worst possible moments, and stars in a few stories of his own (including a very memorable wee on a neighbour’s bed). The tone is cosy, conversational, and gently self-mocking – ideal background rambling for drifting off to sleep or relaxing in bed with your eyes closed.🧠 Main Segments & ThemesOpening Ramble, Vinnie & New Hypnosis SessionJason starts by welcoming listeners to JasonNewland.com and reminding everyone to only listen when it’s safe to close their eyes.Vinnie has just had his dinner and may snack and potter about while Jason talks.Jason mentions recording a separate 30-minute hypnosis session earlier in the day (“Release Intention”) and feeling genuinely relaxed afterward.He talks about stats lagging behind, YouTube comments (thanks Tina), and how every new podcast now automatically appears on YouTube in six versions (with/without music, 5-hour and 10-hour editions).Platforms, Promotion & A Thank-You to SupportersExplains that new recordings are now also going up on X (Twitter), Instagram, TikTok, and possibly Facebook, with shorter or full-length video versions where possible.Mentions losing old Twitter account details and starting again with a fresh profile.Thanks Mary for a kind PayPal gift and invites listeners to send in questions for the upcoming Q&A Friday on 21st November 2025.Reflects on how people can listen anywhere – Spotify, Apple Podcasts, his website – and how YouTube is a “slow burner” with around 1,621 subscribers.Boxing Chat & “Funny Fights” (Conor Benn, Eubank Jr, Jake Paul vs Anthony Joshua)Jason drifts into boxing talk: the one-sided Conor Benn vs Eubank Jr fight, how different it was from their first meeting, and why he’d give Eubank almost no rounds this time.Breaks down big purses, management cuts, and how 10 million quickly becomes “only” about three or three and a half after tax and fees.Discusses novelty fights, especially the planned Anthony Joshua vs Jake Paul bout, predicting it will be funny – unless Jake Paul actually lands something big.Talks about Jake Paul’s record (MMA opponents, Tommy Fury, Mike Tyson, Chavez Jr.) and why these crossover events aren’t really new, reminding listeners of Ali vs a wrestler and other old exhibition-style bouts.Posters, Childhood Walls & TV HeroesMoves into the main “boring object” theme: posters on his walls over the years.Remembers the last “proper” poster he had as a teenager – pop star Sabrina from “Boys, Boys, Boys” – stuck somewhere he could “wake up to her every day,” and how deeply he believed he loved her.Talks about a childhood Bruce Lee poster from a magazine, probably around 1978, featuring images from Enter the Dragon – one from the opening training scene and another from the Hall of Mirrors.Reflects on the TV series Kung Fu with David Carradine, how much he adored the calm, focused style of the character, and how it contrasted with the shouting and squeaking of classic kung-fu films.Mentions the similar “walking down the road with a backpack” endings of Kung Fu and The Incredible Hulk.Shares his annoyance with the way Bruce Lee was portrayed in a modern Tarantino film, but admits one line about “everyone going to prison if they kill someone” was quite funny.Sharon Davies, Bikini Walls & Dad’s CommentRemembers having a picture of British swimmer Sharron Davies on the wall, likely around the time of the 1980 Olympics.Recalls his dad pointing out that everyone on his wall seemed to be in a bikini or swimming costume.Jason’s explanation? The “theme of the wall” was simply, “people I love… women I love.”Comics, Magazines & Blue Tack LogisticsReminisces about Look-in and The Dandy being his weekly comics, while his brothers had Beano, war magazines and football mags.Talks about wrestling with staples in the middle of magazines to extract posters without destroying the issue, because he liked to keep them all.Mentions how, by around 1984, he had years of Look-in and Dandy stored away, and how different it might have been if he’d kept them all until today.YouTube Videos, The Giant Beard & Being Seen vs Being HeardJumps forward to YouTube era: he has old videos dating back to 2007, some of which he’s re-uploaded in playlists.Talks about a particular 2020 video where he has an enormous beard and a mask that sits like a “thong” between the beard, which even a local petrol station worker commented on once he shaved it off.Reflects on not loving the idea of being “seen” on camera, even though there are hundreds of videos where he’s already visible. He’s more comfortable as a voice than a face.Mentions AI-generated images where his teeth look comically perfect and his fingers somehow still look like his own hands.Smart Meters, Bills on Walls & AnxietyShifts to practical “wall objects”: smart meters, bills, and lists of debts.Tells a story about a friend with COPD who placed the smart meter under the TV and became obsessed with watching the numbers go up, to the point of turning off heating and making himself cold.Jason gently urged him to put it away for the sake of his health and peace of mind – advice he also follows himself by keeping his own meter out of sight.Remembers a whiteboard listing monthly outgoings, and how much cheaper electricity and gas used to be. These days, almost everything is on direct debit, which he finds less stressful.TikTok, Weird Messages & Social Media FatigueTalks about experimenting with TikTok over the weekend, researching how it works and feeling mentally drained by it all.Shares some odd messages from a stranger asking where he lives and insisting they’re on TikTok to “meet a lovely, honest, genuine man,” despite having no videos or live streams.Reflects on how that kind of thing feels scammy and how he’s not quite sure how his sleepy content fits into TikTok culture, but decides he’ll keep posting new episodes there, on Instagram, X, and maybe Facebook too.Vinnie’s Wee, Puppy Videos & Flat MemoriesDescribes posting videos in his Facebook “Boring Group,” including clips of Vinnie as a tiny puppy with a hyperactive tail.Tells the story of Vinnie being left with a neighbour for an hour, happily bouncing around and then doing an excited wee on her bed. She laughed – Jason was less amused.Shares how he wishes he’d had Vinnie from the very start of his life, believing he’d have been hugged so much he’d be better behaved on walks today.

Along the way he shares a touching story about helping “Nanny Treats” after a fall in the road, talks about Vinnie’s walks, neighbours who shout in the garden, Big Brother, boxing, and TikTok experiments — all in his familiar, sleepy, rambling style that’s perfect for nodding off. 🧠 Main Segments & ThemesNanny Treats, Night Walks & Near MissesJason describes his new routine of taking Vinnie out at dusk with little clip-on lights and a glowing chest strap so they can be seen on dark pavements.He recounts a worrying moment when “Nanny Treats” (one of Vinnie’s favourite people) trips and falls in the road while walking a neighbour’s strong dog.Jason talks through the slow-motion feeling of watching her fall, the difficulty of helping someone who might be injured, and the relief when she can stand and walk again.He gently ignores her request to “not tell anyone” and reflects on how older relatives, like his nan, used to hide falls out of fear of being moved out of their homes.Rainy Days, Groceries & Weekend TV PlansA rainy, grey day sets the backdrop: Jason times Vinnie’s walks perfectly between downpours and looks forward to a grocery delivery.He chats about Big Brother eviction night, upcoming boxing matches (including Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn, and a big Saudi Arabia card with David Benavidez vs Yard), and the awkwardness of staying up all night for American fight timings.There’s a light ramble about which sports are truly popular in the UK and worldwide, with a nod to football, cricket, rugby, and where boxing might fit in.Big Brother, I’m a Celebrity & Noisy NeighboursJason muses on Big Brother’s sometimes cruel twists and fake countdowns to evictions that never happen, and hints at twists without spoiling them.He looks ahead to I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!, mentioning Kelly Brook and how much he enjoys her voice.In the background, a neighbour loudly shouts in the garden; Jason jokes that she’s like an unwanted co-presenter and wonders if shouty people realise they’re shouting.He speculates that it might be an eyesight issue, not hearing — they think the person is further away — and spins off into playful mental images of people literally “biting someone’s head off”.TikTok, Instagram & The Trumpet-Playing Jack RussellJason shares that he’s now uploading daily episodes to TikTok (up to an hour each) and shorter versions to Instagram, and invites listeners to find him by name or via links on his website.He explains that TikTok and Instagram are just extra places to fall asleep to his voice, while his website and YouTube still host all six versions of each recording (with and without music, 5- and 10-hour).Vinnie provides a noisy soundtrack off-mic; Jason imagines him one day playing drums or trumpet and jokes about marketing him as a jazz-playing Jack Russell.Rory Sutherland, Tangents & Talkative Uncle SausageJason talks about his current fascination with Rory Sutherland, a marketing expert whose long, tangential talks he finds both funny and educational.This leads into memories of “Uncle Sausage,” who never stopped talking — even in hospital and seemingly even while asleep — and Jason wonders if he himself talks in his sleep.He reflects on those moments when a conversation suddenly becomes genuinely interesting and the “glass” between him and other people drops, drawing him properly into connection.Hope’s Question: Christmas Decorations & What Feels ChristmassyHope asks about his favourite Christmas decoration as a child and what makes him feel that Christmas is here.Jason fondly remembers chocolate coins hanging on the tree, long strings of Christmas cards stretched across the walls, tinsel everywhere, and neighbours’ houses glowing with lights.He contrasts those busy, card-filled childhood Christmases with his present life, where he might receive only a few cards a year, and shares the bittersweet side of living alone and never having had a family of his own.He recalls decorating the communal Christmas tree Luke once planted outside, and his attempt to turn it into a little memorial with lights and tinsel that sadly no one else joined in with.Christmas songs, TV specials (EastEnders, Coronation Street, Vicar of Dibley, Only Fools and Horses, Morcambe and Wise, The Two Ronnies), and even snow are what really make him feel Christmassy now — even if he mostly just waits for the season to quietly pass.Kathleen’s Question: White Christmas & Snow in the UKKathleen asks whether white Christmases are common in England or quite rare.Jason talks about how snow is more common in Wales and Scotland than in the south of England and recalls stretches of years in the late 2000s and early 2010s when it seemed to snow every month.He remembers thick snow three years ago, around the time he got Vinnie, and describes trudging around in boots before it all turned to ice.There’s a vivid memory of slipping down the stairs and fracturing his back once the snow became treacherous, and how his padded coat may have prevented a worse injury.He still dreams of stepping outside one Christmas Day while it’s actively snowing — a cosy, storybook “proper” white Christmas.Tesco Adverts, Opinions & Changing GenerationsJason laughs about a Tesco Christmas advert where a family’s mood sours after a granddad admits he “had an opinion,” and how that reminds him of his own dad quietly keeping opinions to himself now.He reflects on the social pressure not to say the “wrong thing” in today’s world, the Big Brother contestant thrown out for clichéd comments about boats, and how he’d probably get told off frequently if he ever went into the Big Brother house.The theme of generational shifts runs through his musings — what used to be normal pub-talk now gets magnified, judged and replayed.Maria’s Question: Last Time at the CinemaMaria asks Jason when he last went to the cinema and what he saw.He believes his last trip was in 2015 to see Fantastic Four, and he reminisces about earlier cinema visits: Spider-Man films, X-Men, Superman Returns with his goddaughter, Ratatouille, Walk the Line, a Woody Allen film, and Tim Burton’s Batman in 1989.There are funny, slightly awkward date stories, including putting his hand on someone’s knee and having it removed, and hiding in an alley to “surprise” a date… only to miss the entire film.He reflects on how films like E.T. once felt like global events everyone had to see, in a way that feels different now with streaming and the fragmented media world.Anne’s Question: Snowball Fights, Brothers & HeightAnne asks whether he’s ever had a snowball fight. Jason says yes — and he didn’t like it.Growing up with two much bigger, stronger older brothers meant physical games could get rough, and he never really felt like a team-sport kind of person.
