Tea & Empathy Episode 1 - Ricky

Welcome to the Stupid Hearts Club! The Club for everyone with a Stupid Heart-------------------Hello everyoneAs promised in the last solo episode here is the first episode of one of my new spin-off series ideas. Tea and Empathy. This will be a monthly event where I sit in a cafe and 'someone' turns up and chats to be about whatever it is they have going on, or is on their mind. It's all about having non-judgmental, empathetic conversations with people we might not otherwise engage with deeply, if at all.
In this opening episode I asked a guy called Ricky who sometimes is in a co-working space I use if he was up for telling me about what he gets up to while I am titting about doing podcast bits and hustling for coin.
I genuinely ended up learning and thinking about a few things I didn't know and hadn't thought about before, and it was nice to get a lil sharey time with someone I usually just nod at over my laptop.
This is very much an attempt to remind myself and others that when we talk to each other in real life, away from the bearpit of social media and the internet, that it leaves room for a bit more humanity, and empathy, especially if there's a nice cup of tea involved.
Hopefully together we can grow our little community into a fun and wholesome space that is exciting and creative and above all, positive.
I want everyone to have a chance to listen to this first episode to see if it's something that's your bag, but going forward Tea & Empathy episodes are going to be just for my lovely folks on Patreon. If you enjoy it and/or fancy supporting what we're doing with the show, maybe come check it out!
Big love ya'llxUncle Nico
