Helen Skelton on Challenges, Confidence and Comebacks

Josh Widdicombe is one of the most recognisable comedians on our TV screens right now. Along with Adam Hills and Alex Brooker (both in our back catalogue) he's presented more than THIRTY seasons into The Last Leg - a show which was only meant to run for a few weeks during the 2012 Paralympics! He's also, along with fellow comedian Rob Beckett, responsible for Parenting Hell - one of the most successful podcasts of all time. It's fast approaching a BILLION downloads, and having been sold to Spotify in a big money deal it's still a fan favourite. Now Josh is turning his attention to the 90s and his passion for the decade's pop culture. And why not - it was brilliant. From Nasty Nick to Mr Blobby, we chat about some of the moments that defined the decade, as well as his relation to Henry VIII and the moments that made him. It's a lovely chat as he joins us from his relatively new Devon home (which used to belong to Noel Edmonds!) so get comfortable and enjoy. Cheers Hosted on Acast.

Well we had to didn't we? Throughout February we're celebrating the best of the couples' conversations we've shared over the past seven years, and with the Winter Olympics under way in Italy we're reliving one of Team GB's most iconic moments on ice with Jane Torvill & Christopher Dean. WE KNOW their relationship is a professional one, and a decades-long friendship - but here on White Wine Question Time we think Valentines can be for those partners in life who just make everything better - so this episode is dedicated to the best friends, mates, and pals who are always there for us no matter what! Enjoy the conversation and good luck to the newest generation of Olympians in Milan. Cheers. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Throughout February we’re celebrating the month of love by hearing some of our favourite couples conversations from the Cellar. This week it's a couple so iconic that no surnames are required; it’s Richard and Judy. With their signature warmth, wit, and unmistakable chemistry, these broadcasting legends dominated the breakfast TV schedules in the nineties and early noughties. In this show they share stories of rising through the ranks of journalism, how they first met, the lessons they’ve learned from working together, and the highs and lows of a lifetime in the spotlight. It’s the perfect tonic for Valentine’s season! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

January is almost over, the days are getting (slightly!) longer and this week we've got something else to brighten your mood - an extremely funny, and emotional chat with one third of The Last Leg trio, Alex Brooker. As a child he underwent over 40 operations with no guarantee that he'd ever walk. Now with two daughters of his own he reflects on what that time must have been like for his own parents. He talks about how he actually looks back with fond memories on the many hospital trips, and with his typical dark humour wonders if his mum might have been a bit hasty with the decision to amputate! You get the impression listening to this interview that Alex understands, and appreciate the many people who've helped him on his journey from Great Ormond Street to winning awards for his TV work, especially as there have been a few moments where some simple decisions could have changed his story completely. Thanks so much to Alex for stopping by for a chat - I hope you all enjoy it too. Cheers! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week, we’re heading back down to the cellar to revisit a fascinating chat with renowned psychotherapist and bestselling author Owen O’Kane. Owen’s journey is as compelling as his advice—growing up during the Troubles in Northern Ireland, training as a priest, working in palliative care, and finally finding his true calling as a therapist. In this episode, he shares powerful tools to recognise anxiety triggers, disrupt negative cycles, and bring more calm into your life. Plus, he answers your questions, tackling everything from therapy timelines to simple exercises for managing worry. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
