Q&A Friday | LMBYTS #1478 | Jason Newland | 31st October 2025
🧠 General Overview: This recording is a freeform, conversational monologue from Jason, part of his ongoing Q&A Friday podcast-style series. It blends everyday reflections, listener questions, tangents, humor, and personal anecdotes. Despite its length and digressions, it’s engaging in a gentle, comforting way — ideal for background listening, relaxation, or sleep. 🗓️ Context & Opening:

• Jason starts by acknowledging he missed recording on Halloween (October 31st) due to fireworks and noise disturbances, including his dog Vinny barking and neighbors playing loud music to drown out the bangs.
• He apologizes for the delay, shares a bit about his current surroundings, and thanks fans (Ben, Emil, Jackie) for PayPal donations, which helped with food and bills.

🐶 Pet Talk (Vinny & Logie):

• Jason talks at length about Vinny, his dog, and a past dog Logie.
  • Vinny is a bit reactive, especially around other dogs, and Jason shares stories of nighttime walks and social challenges.
  • He recalls Logie, a large, gentle but aggressive-to-dogs pup he took care of after a friend's passing.
  • There's a detailed and emotional story about having to hold Logie down during an intense dog encounter, illustrating Jason's physical exhaustion and care.

📺 Nostalgia & TV Talk:

• Jason reminisces about TV in the '80s and '90s, including:
  • Watching EastEnders, and how it became a Sunday ritual.
  • New recordings he’s doing called “Thursday Throwbacks”, themed around his favorite shows from each year (e.g., 1980, 1981, etc.).

🍂 Weather, Autumn & Life in England:

• Discusses autumnal weather, its unpredictability in England (“three or four seasons in one day”).
• Talks about living in different parts of the UK (Essex, London, Suffolk, Scotland).
• Shares anecdotes about slipping on icy stairs and fracturing his back — a humorous yet painful memory.

💬 Listener Q&A: Jason answers several light-hearted listener questions: 1. Hope - Halloween costumes from childhood?

• Jason struggles to remember dressing up for Halloween.
• Vaguely recalls fake blood and Dracula teeth.
• Shares that Halloween wasn’t a big deal in his childhood (UK perspective), and how now more adults celebrate it than kids.

2. Anne - Favorite scary movie?

• He goes deep into horror movie nostalgia, mentioning:
  • American Werewolf in London (his favorite)
  • Alien, The Fly, The Others, Shaun of the Dead, Us, 1408, Cabin in the Woods, Misery, Jaws, The Exorcist, and more.
  • Prefers psychological thrillers and movies with emotional depth over pure gore or slasher films.

3. Jackie - Do you believe in ghosts or magic?

• Jason reflects deeply:
  • He doesn’t firmly believe or disbelieve — says “I don’t know” is an honest answer.
  • Talks about childhood interest in magic and the energetic connection between people.
  • Expresses belief in the power of kindness, intention, and interconnectedness.

4. Maria - Childhood trick-or-treating?

• Already answered under Hope’s question — he doesn’t remember trick-or-treating much.

5. Heidi - Did you succeed in cooking meals with your healthy food?

• Admits he didn’t stick to the cooking plan.
• Gave away food to a neighbor rather than waste it.
• Reflects on struggles cooking for himself despite having catering experience.

6. Favorite Halloween candy?

• Mentions UK sweets like bonbons, Curly Wurly, frozen honeycomb bars, and chocolate brownies.
• Shares fond memories of old-fashioned sweet shops and how he loved chocolate brownies from school dinners.

🧠 Personal Themes: Throughout, Jason explores personal feelings about:

• Ageing & declining energy
• Shame over needing help
• Self-sufficiency vs asking for support
• Belief, kindness, and human connection
• Loneliness, nostalgia, and reflection

🎤 Tone & Style:

• Relaxed, meandering, sincere, and often humorous.
• Feels like a personal conversation or diary entry.
• Contains lots of asides, digressions, and comforting rambles — perfect for easing into sleep or zoning out.
