  • Cancer, Heart Disease, Mental Health, and Health in general, a positive Mental attitude and some laughter is a medicine thats Free!

    Cancer and Heart Disease are far too common these days in both Men and Women and with these illnesses, Mental Health can play a major part in a patient's recovery.

    Nothing prepares us for that dreaded diagnosis of Cancer, a sudden Heart Attack, or Cardiac arrest without warning.

    Filling in the blanks.

    Martin & Patrick discuss their personal experiences, the treatment, the support, family, and friends, not to mention mental health, what resources are available, both medical and financial, and what outside support one can tap into.

    Discussions around everyday life, news, sports, hobbies arts and crafts may also feature as we discuss distractions from the challenges faced every day.

    From time to time guests are invited into the studio to discuss matters relating to their life and health experience, including healthcare professionals who can inject some alternative insight into a complex subject.

    Remember, our Podcasts are light-hearted, funny, interesting, and informative and should prove interesting and hopefully addictive as we grow our listeners and contributors worldwide.

    Episode 9 - Series (Season 2)

    After three weeks of wonderful guests Martin & Patrick are on there own for a catch up.

    Martin still doing well on his new Cancer treatment heads back for his 3 monthly check up and CT Scan.

    Its also good news as for the first time in nearly two and a half years Martin applies for a new Job, can you guess what it is yet all will be revealed.

    A new feature this week is guest Ian Trushell who is currently battling Stage 4 Bowel Cancer which has spread into the Liver.

    Bowel cancer is also called colorectal cancer. It affects the large bowel, which is made up of the colon and rectum. Cancer is when abnormal cells start to divide and grow in an uncontrolled way. The cells can grow into surrounding tissues or organs, and may spread to other areas of the body.

    Ian was given a two year life expectancy but he recently past that date and is continuing his battle with a positive mental attitude. Ian today describes the symptoms of Bowel and what to look out for.

    Oh no, yes Martin gets his Joke of the week in this week, not sure if its a winner.

    Next week we continue with our guests, Martin and Patrick attend the "Make a Wish Charity" awards ceremony and speak to some of the winning recipients.

    The Lost Roller

    Today is Legend Music day and the boy's have yet again another very special guest, Nobby Clark from "The Bay City Rollers" fame

    Original lead singer and founder member of The Bay City Rollers

    Real name: Gordon Fraser Clark, born Edinburgh 10th September 1950.

    His early success in the 1960’s and early 1970’s as lead singer and founder member of The Bay City Rollers, saw him performing lead vocals on the band’s early hits: Keep on dancing; We can make music; Manana; Remember and Saturday Night. Leaving the band in 1973 to pursue a solo career as a writer/performer, he released two singles, Steady Love on the Epic label, and Shake it down on the phonogram label.

    Nobby performed Shake it down on the Claude Francois 1975 Christmas Special TV show, recorded in Paris shortly before Claude’s tragic death. Claude Francois was one of France’s most popular recording artists, notably responsible for composing the original version of My Way, amongst other wonderful memorable compositions. This television appearance opened up a new market in France for Nobby’s music, taking him on a detour into French films when in 1980 he composed the film score The Big Sky which can still be heard in French cinema’s today.

    The following three years were spent managing a recording studio and rehearsal rooms in Edinburgh’s West Saville Terrace, producing many early recordings for artists who later became successful, including Billy McKenzie from The Associates.

    After a spell of acting in comedy musicals, such as I’m sorry the bridge is out, you’ll have to spend the night and A slice of Saturday night. for which he received a number of complimentary reviews, including the theatrical newspaper, The Stage, Nobby took some time out to concentrate on his personal life, before setting out to write and record his first solo album for many years.

    The album entitled If Only was arranged and produced by his long time friend David Paton who’s own band Pilot achieved world-wide success with songs such as Magic, January and Just a Smile to name but a few. He followed up with Going Home, also produced by David Paton. He now presents his third solo album On The Inside. All three albums contain songs that show Nobby’s depth of feeling in his lyrics and haunting melodies.

    His involvement with other artists has continued, working with Kenny Herbert and Rab Howat on their last two albums 8-1-2-1-9-8-0 (to which Nobby contributed the song Slow Down) and playing harmonica and backing vocals on their latest album Songs of our Lives, produced by David Paton.

    Nobby’s concern for the environment has seen him involved with various groups and committee’s investigating the best use of renewable energy in the domestic field. He has been fighting for greener areas, where over the years there has been an erosion of playing fields and open spaces. This is an issue close to Nobby’s heart.
