À propos de cet audio

Jo McNicol Feirclough is what we call a character. But I think that’s being too simplistic. Because there’s a whole lot to Jo. She is, as we all are, multi-dimensional. The wonderful thing about Jo is that she’s direct about that fact. She doesn’t beat around the bush. She tells it how it is. And we often don’t know what to do with that, so we laugh and say, “What a character.” But, what I’m interested in is what makes people who they are, and in this episode, you are going to get that in a big way! For example, Jo was hit by a bus. Yes, I’m serious. A big old bus in Townsville knocked her down on King’s Road. She fractured two discs. That story is something we just mention in passing in this conversation. Because there was just so many other things to unpack. The same can be said about Jo’s cervical cancer diagnosis. So, How Do You Decide what to cut? Well, when you run a podcast exploring that question you get bold enough to cut out pretty big events like getting hit by a bus and cancer. Not because they weren’t important. But because what I’ve kept will, I trust, show the many sides of Jo. If you’re worried that I’ve cut all the good anecdotes, let me tell you what remains: there’s Jo getting stabbed by her then-husband, there are three other cancer diagnoses, there’s family tensions and trauma. I hope you’re getting the picture: this episode, the last of Season 1, is Big. Let’s get to it.
