Welcome to the 'Bakery Bears Radio Show' Episode 34

As 2021 has begun we have decided to make a few changes to the way we are approaching life. We think one of the things which is so important in life is the mental space offered by a little boredom. But in a multi sensory world with constant engagement, how is it possible to find the time anymore for a little boredom? In todays show we talk about how we've done it.

Join Dan & Kay as they:

Talk about the benefits of boredom in the quest for creativity
Discuss the book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40672036-digital-minimalism
Talk through some of the changes they have made to their lives in 2021
Analyse some of the immediate benefits to those changes

Episode 18 'What did the Romans ever do for us?' Mar 16, 2020

It's time for another episode of 'The Bakery Bears Radio Show!'

Thanks to some truly awful weather, we're seventy two hours late with the show! But we've made it, and what a show we have in store. Before we get started though, we just wanted to mention the challenges that the world is facing at the moment. Thanks to Dans cancer journey, we have some perspective on trying to deal effectively with stressful situations. The one thing that we desperately wanted through the dark times of Dans journey, was to feel normal. So, that is what we will be doing everything in our power to bring you every two weeks, a little bit of normal. Weather permitting, the Radio Show will always be here and we will always be thinking of all of you.

In todays show we are heading out for a wet and windy walk in search of a Victorian Bandstand. Along the way we are discussing one of Dan's favourite topics, the Romans! We're pondering the that famous question posed by Monty Python in the Life of Brian, 'What did the Romans ever do for us'.

Join your hosts, Dan & Kay as they:

Discuss why they love the Romans so much
Remember Dans first exposure to a Roman archaeological site - you can read his article on this subject in this issue 19 of Knitability https://bakerybears.com/read/

Episode 16 'Have we come too far too fast?' Feb 14, 2020

Its time for another episode of 'The Bakery Bears Radio Show!'

Today you join us as we go in search of a boating lake. At the height of the age of the railways, our home town was like a Monaco of the 1900's and on the outskirts of town from 1900-1920, there was a huge boating lake.

In todays show we go in search of that lake, and along the way we'll be pondering has society moved too far too fast?

So join your hosts today as they:

Discuss some the challenges we all face living a world which seems to progress forward faster by the day
Talk through some of the issues that have faced personally
Consider if what we're dealing with in the world at the moment is a technological revolution, perhaps similar to the industrial revolution
Find and recreate the photograph included in this post over 100 years on!
