For those of you who have been waiting quite a while for this moment, Season 4 of my podcast, Out of the Fishbowl, landed today. You can jump right in and dive into episode one, titled, 'Holding Two things' over here and please give feedback, add comments where you listen, and share the link if you like it. i think this one is going to land really well! But for those of you who [...]
My word for 2023 is Healing. Every year i try to pause and reflect and listen and then pick a word that will be a theme or focus for the coming year. With the past two years being the hardest two in my life for a number of reasons - but mostly my wife, Val, leaving me and ending our 12-year marriage- it possibly makes a lot of sense as to why this would be [...]
Just hours away from the end of 2022 and it really does feel like i might just make it out alive. Let me be honest, for me the past two years have been a bit of a dog show. My wife announcing she is moving out and then later ending the marriage in 2021. Having the courts make it all official in March 2022. While i don't speak specifically about the end of my [...]
This morning i got a little inspired and wrote a poem on the Twitterer that goes a little something like this: WE BUILD A COUNTRY we build a country not by voting or protesting or even trying to hold leadership accountable although all of those might be important and deeply necessary rather we build a country by showing up actively loving our neighbour (All of them!) building bridges and longer tables! = [...]
With two more weeks to go, Season 2 of my podcast/codcast, Out of the Fishbowl, has been steaming ahead. The latest episode, titled 'Peace like a Rivet' [not a typo!] hit the ground running yesterday, and landed really well. With a number of guest cameo voices, from some of the most incredible people i know, this episode is resonating with different people in different ways. And it looks set to easily be the second most, if [...]
"My name is Brett "Fish" and i am gifted in doing things that don't produce money." Sounds like it could be the opening words of a 12-step meeting, or a brag, or else a confession. Maybe a bit of all of those. Or i guess it could be a slight frustration. Especially in a world that seems to expect you to at least be good at some things which bring in enough money. Whatever [...]
It's official. Season 2 of Out of the Fishbowl is a go! And after just one day of being available it has already surpassed all the episodes [except for Pineapple on Pizza] of Season 1 in terms of number of listens in the first week, so that is looking good. Needs another 91 during the rest of the week to be able to take Pineapple so very possible, but not sure it will happen. [...]
This coming Monday, 17th Jan, Season 2 of Out of the Fishbowl will be arriving. For those who missed the Season 1 summary, you can catch up on each of the seven episodes over here. Hard to believe that we are very nearly almost ready for round 2 of this thing and I CANNOT WAIT! WHAT TO EXPECT IN SEASON 2 The arrival of the second season of Out of the Fishbowl is [...]
With one Season of Out of the Fishbowl wrapped, i guess that kind of makes me a Podcaster. Which i have wanted to be and do for the longest time. And unless it had absolutely blown up and had a million listeners in the first week, i don't think it could have gone much better. Although finding one more person to listen to Episode I: Pineapple on Pizza, so that i can hit 300 [...]
You clearly have not been following me on social media if you haven't yet heard that i have a Podcast. And that Episode II dropped this week.

Out of the Fishbowl Episode I, if you somehow missed it, is titled 'Pineapple on Pizza' and you [...]
