Because there comes a time in everyone’s life when you question what it’s all about, how you’re living and who you’ve become. This is the Mid Life Wake Up Podcast where we have conversations about how to stop running around feeling like a hamster on a wheel or empty inside because we can’t get off the track that is life as we know it. In this podcast you will be lifted up, motivated, amazed, touched and affected by those who are struggling to break the cycle, inspired by those who are taking steps along the path and changed by those that are ahead to show the way.

Not Another Love Song Matt Edmondson Matt Edmondson is on a mission to create an album. The only problem is, he's never written a song before. He can't sing, he can't play any instruments, and he can barely clap in time to the beat... but he does love a challenge. When the world went a bit weird in 2020, and he found himself with an unexpected amount of free time, he decided to try and learn songwriting and music production from scratch (thank you youtube tutorials) - he just needed some musicians to collaborate with.So, he slid into the DM's of ten of his favourite artists and asked if they wanted to write a song with him. Amazingly, they all said yes.In this brand new series you'll hear Matt and his guest have a funny chat, figure out what to write a song about and collaborate on the lyrics and melody before Matt takes their rough work off to 'The Lab' (aka the spare bedroom) to produce it up into a fully fledged pop song- letting you in on the process he went through to make the track.< The Dissability Track The Dissability Track "Fascinating and infuriating" - A podcast exploring what life is like with a disability/longterm health condition in the UK.
