Right Up My Podcast

Written by: Gwen Watson and Kate White
  • Summary

  • Right Up My Podcast is the podcast for those looking to explore different methods of self-care, self-love and ways to make you feel good.

    Hosted by voice artist and presenter Gwen Watson and journalist and producer Kate White, Right Up My Podcast came from a mutual drive to find new ways to improve our own mental health.

    Each episode we chat to a different expert about their feel-good forte, and then try it out for ourselves to see if it works... or if it doesn't.

    It's frank, funny and honest, with the odd bit of over-sharing. So join us on Right Up My Podcast, because you deserve to feel good too!

    Released fortnightly. Contains bad language and inappropriate laughter.

    Nov 20 2024

    We talk to Dr Alka Patel about how we can live not only longer, but healthier and more fulfilling lives (because who wants one without the other!). We discuss the importance of a personalised approach to health, but also things that we can all incorporate into our everyday to boost our bodies and our minds.

    Dr Alka worked for decades as a GP and now 25 years on she works with the latest innovations in health to enable people to make decisions about their lifestyle and self-care choices.

    She challenges Gwen and Kate to complete her five time-based biohacks everyday for a week and see how they feel. Join us and let us know how you get on!

  • The RUMPette 18 – Going with the Flaneur Flow!
    Nov 13 2024

    In this pocket-sized Ep, Gwen & Kate chat about psychogeography aka being an urban wandering flaneur. Gwen shares how to be a flaneur in a car as she takes to the back roads of Wales (mostly) without a map in search of a pub in a bay. Kate has been to see Faithless with a load of other middle aged ravers, and consults the New Yorker re: what our annoying household habits mean about us. Plus listener shoutouts!
