  • RUMP Rewind – Ep.39 - Connecting People: The importance of having people and purpose in our lives | Maff Potts
    Nov 20 2025

    New intro, old favourite episode! Back in Season 5 we talked to Maff Potts about the importance of having people and purpose in our lives. Maff is the founder of Camerados, a charity that helps people support each other through tough times. One of the main ways they do this is by setting up Public Living Rooms – places to go to when you need to connect to or just be around other humans, with no agenda, no mission and no fixing.

    Before setting up Camerados, Maff spent 20 years working in the homelessness sector, where he ran the largest homeless services in the country for The Salvation Army, as well as being CEO of the award-winning organisation 'People Can', which worked with homelessness, criminal justice, domestic violence and addiction services. Maff ran the Government's programme to modernise homeless centres and even set up a shelter one Christmas in the Millennium Dome, for the charity Crisis!

    To find out more about the Camerados and Public Living Rooms, head to camerados.org

    If you're interested in setting up a Public Living Room in your community, then email Yvonne for a chat at cuppa@camerados.org

    Nov 13 2025

    In this week's mini-sode, we dive into rubbish DIY, new skills we’d like but will probably never master, and ask: when is a drag queen not a drag queen? We chat about what makes a house a home, the Guardian’s 15th-ever zero-star review (now on Disney!), and why lying down in a dark room might just save the neuro-spicy among us.

    We play an episode bonus from: Ep.70 – Ayurveda: how to bring this ancient wisdom into our modern lives | John Douillard

  • RUMP Rewind – Ep.49 - Acts of Kindness: How it impacts people, communities and our brains | Robin Banerjee
    Oct 30 2025

    We're heading back to Season 7 to explore the power of kindness. What does it really mean to be kind? Why does it matter – and can kindness ever backfire?

    We chatted with psychology professor Robin Banerjee from the University of Sussex – home to the Centre for Research on Kindness. Robin led The Kindness Test, the world’s largest-ever study of kindness, in partnership with the BBC.

    Plus, Gwen and Kate take on Robin’s kindness challenge and discover it’s not quite as easy as it sounds…

  • The RUMPette 37 – You are what you do when no one is watching!
    Oct 22 2025

    Celebrity Traitors, moving house, and when a chocolate bar is no longer a chocolate bar… The RUMPette is back!

    Gwen & Kate catch up and realise that the question “what have you NOT been doing to make yourself feel good?” might be the real topic of the week. They also dive into the idea that you are what you do when no one is watching — and how every little choice we make quietly shapes who we are and how we show up in the world.

    Oh, and if all chocolate bars were about to disappear, which three would you save?

  • RUMP Rewind – Ep.19: Celebrating Failure: How not to fear failure and trust your inner voice | Rebecca Hartnell
    Oct 9 2025

    Here's a sneaky re-peak at an old favourite. Have you ever failed at something? Of course you have, we all have! So in this episode we celebrate all things to do with failure. We speak to coach and mentor, Rebecca Hartnell, about how to work with failure, rather than be paralysed by it or by the fear of it. This leads us on to a wider chat about trusting our inner voice, grasping gratitudes and retraining our brains to find the gold in things that didn't go right the first time.

    Head to our Patreon page for a reminder of the questions that Rebecca suggests we ask ourselves when faced with failure. Plus, the resilience-building challenge that she set us

    If you'd like to find out more about Rebecca and her coaching work.
