Welcome to Stupid Hearts Club. The Podcast for everyone with a Stupid Heart!

-------------------

Hello lovelies

Back in November my excellent comedy actor pal Laura Patch (from Netflix hit Afterlife) let me into her rather impressive kitchen for a chat about life, writing and processing trauma. That's episode 73 if you want to go back and find it. Now 6 months later, the play she was merely tinkering with back then is up on it's feet as Laura performs it and hones it into it's perfect shape. Last Friday I had a brilliiant catch up with her in Cote in Soho (OooooOOOOoooooh, alright Lawrence LLywellyn Bowen).

We had a further chat about writing about personal experience, and processing trauma which has become a very hot issue the last few weeks since Baby Reindeer arrived and seemingly caught the attention of the whole world, and not always for the better as the hype and opinion furnace began to rage.

After our chat I went and watched Glorious in Clapham on Tuesday where I got to see Laura in action. I also got to meet some of Lauras buddies which was very interesting indeed and only confirms to me how ace and loved she is, the absolute sod.

This ep concludes with me referring back to watching the play, and reflecting on how great it is watching a project go through the stages of finding it's truest self.

Stirring stuff

Hope you enjoy

Nico

Hey babez,

Just two days ago Alistair and I met in a bar in Victoria and had as troubling a conversation as we have ever had. I recorded badly on a Zoom recorder but luckily had my phone mic running.

Tech knobeadry aside, our vile conversation made me feel a lot better about the scorn I regularly spray in Griggs direction because once again he has proved that he has something remarkable and undefined where his should should be.

And in this episode I think we possibly find out the genesis of his bland penchant for unfeelingness. Enjoy it, if that is the right word. Which it isn't.

Heyo my loves

I present to thee a nice solo catch up I recorded in my car over 2 seperate sittings. I know I am a week off the pace again, sorry. But I am dropping two more eps before the month ends so my heart is still true. In this episode I am telling you about all the little plans that are growing in my pod-world. It's quite exciting I tell thee. There's also a 'Cliff-Riff', which is insinuating absolutely nothing and some gentle coastal sounds to play you out.

By the way-

I have decided to turn off Patreon billing for the month of April, just to give me the option of doing some catch up stress free during my birthday month. Yes that's right, uncle Ma'am becomes a half centurion on 23rd April.

I will likely still post a few bits but I have got to get the next phase of SHC lined up.

Hey You Smashing Persons...

Something a little different today. As you all know, since I moved to Brighton a year ago, I have been busking, playing live music gigs, meeting and collaborating with all kinds of musicians, which has made me very happy. This uptick in musical energy has also given rise to my Patreon Only Bonus Podcast Series 'The Busking Chronicles', a chatty pod where I interview musicians who are hustling to make a a bit of a living from their love of playing music. We tend to chat for around 40 mins and then strum a few tunes out together. It's cute. It's kind of for my patreons only so if you if you want to check out a few eps, just join my patreon and have a squizz.

Anyway now and then I like to drop a hint of my bonus stuff in the wild to tempt new Stupid Hearted folk in to our little community. So, today I am dropping an edited, slightly rough, audio edit of the first ever Stupid Hearts Club music night, which took place at the Bees Mouth bar in Hove in late November. It was a gorgeous evening with some amazing performances and lots of laughter.

Have a listen and perhaps consider coming down to the next one on Thursday March 28th again at the Bees Mouth, Hove. A truly excellent little music bar full of mad shit, long haired, gentle staff and amusing toilet decor.

Or if you live far away, why not consider how I could come to your area and put a similar night on (you would obvs have to help me find some acts near you, but it would be fun right? And allows me to get on the road which is going to becoming more of how I approach Stupid Hearts Club in 2024-

Anyway, hope you enjoy the recording....

SHC 4Eva

PS - Am dropping a lovely ep of my other bonus series 'Tea and Empathy' soon so stay tuned

Once in a while, a man comes along that is so full of wisdom, panache, and depth of character that were he to pass you in the street, you would immediately hear a montage of echoey-whispers all going 'who is he?...who is he?...who is he?....who is he?......all overlapping each other and fading out...out...out.

My latest guest, is no such man.

'Mysterious Albert' is a fellow tired ageing comedy writer, whose name I say out loud literally immediately in the intro to this episode. However he has just texted me in a paranoid wheel-spin asking that I do not put his name in print so that he can speak freely and with reckless abandon, which he doesn't do anyway. This has rather amused me, so he shall now forever be...whisper it....Mysterious Alberts, Albert, Albert..........

Shhhhhhhhh

Enjoy the episode.....

Hey all you lovers out there-

SELF-LOVERS that is. See where I'm going with this? Yes, it's valentines day and Uncle Seaside is here in a big grimy coat carrying a large fish in a stripey plastic bag to tell you that he loves you all very much. This episode ends up being about Self Love which I believe is the key to being open to all the other sorts of love, so give yourself a lil pat on the bum today if nobody else is going to do that to you. Also don't do that to anyone else 'to cheer them up' unless you are already in a mutually bum'pattin type relationship with them otherwise it is NOT OKAY.

I warble on about some music stuff in this ep too just cos there's a lot of it about at the moment. There are two events to look out for if it is possible for you to travel for a bit of live SHC music action- One for Northerners and one for Southerners,

Firstly I will be playing (solo) a meaty set of indie covers before Oasis Supernova on Saturday 24th of Feb at Square Chapel Arts Centre in Halifax. Come along if you are nearby (or overkeen and far away)

Secondly the third Stupid Hearts Club presents....Love, Lols and Heartache...will be on March 28th at The Bees Mouth in Hove, and will feature emerging local talent Crimson, who is ace, and one well established Indie artist that I shan't name until it is defo confirmed-

Come along and talk loudly into my face about how it's weird meeting a podcast in human form. (it is)

Enjoyyyyyy

Dearest sweethearts.

I have maked a really fun classic SHC episode for you this week chatting to much-more successful-than-me comedy actor and all round diamond Kiell Smyth-Bynoe. This lad has been getting his adorable boat race around the tellybox for the last few years and he is great company as well as a seriously natty dresser. Here I get the inside track on his career so far, swap misty-eyed bants about the deep fun of improvising with funny people and talk about the edge and stress that comes with weird egoic success being followed by fallow periods and tumbleweed. All of this gold (AU) is spread on a comedy base we set early on and lean into a little too hard following one passing mention of the periodic table.

Enjooooyyyyyy

Darlings!

I am so excited to release this episode of Stupid Hearts Club, which I made with easily the most intensely informed man I have ever gone deep into the woods with. George Fredenham also know as Flavour Fred (find him on Insta) is an absolute goldmine of knowledge on mushrooms, wild food, foraging and the history and mythology of a world of flavours that blows my mind every time we talk. He's also a straight up dude, and great company. This episode sees us go from being a bit pissed at lunch, to chilled at my gaff and then magically appearing in a cold but beautiful forest glade. You are going to love Fred, and you are going to be hearing more from us both.

PS - A bonus full length version of the Forest Walk audio from the end of this ep, will be posted on Patreon as exclusive content early next week. Don't miss it, come in and sample some of my other members only delights.

Much love and Mushrooms

Uncle Nico
