I’ve got a podcast! When I watched the nuclear war film Threads at the age of 11 it terrified me and changed my life forever.
I started the pod to speak to other people whose lives have been changed by Threads, from cast and crew members, to extras, broadcasters, authors and super fans. Out now!

Within sixty seconds I am going from ‘he’s going to be great’ to ‘it’s a fucking disaster’ to ‘calm down, it’s too early to tell’ and back again. I just want @claired81.bsky.social to be happy.

Activists who rescued beagle puppies from the vivisection racket are on trial but there are reporting restrictions, so no one can talk about what’s happening in the case. The vivisection industry has a LOT to hide. That’s why it pays its spin doctors big bucks to cover up for it.

I gave up fizzy drinks and sugary cakes some weeks ago. I’m lying in bed with a hot water bottle, a fizzy drink and a sugary cake. NO REGRETS.

Me on animal testing…

It's fascinating. Sean Judge is seriously worth listening to.
The new episode of the Threads pod is out!
This time we hear from Sean Judge who started the Facebook group Threads Survivors.
When he he first watched the film he had months of sleepless nights and threw his VHS copy in the bin. He talks about how Threads inspired him to work with death.
