Chris’s Corner Episode #131 Why Do We Always Love An Underdog Story?
Sunday May 28, 2023
Sunday May 28, 2023
This week on Chris's Corner I speak about the foundation of all stories that have ever been told, the journey of the underdog. We all love a story where the main character starts with absolutely nothing and goes on a journey where they make something of themselves. I give examples of some of the best underdogs in history such as Michael Jordan, Usain Bolt, Rocky and many other characters both non fictional and fictional. There's also why we enjoy these types of dark horses. What do they do to make us as humans appreciate their story and the journey they go on? What can we do in our own live to show the appreciation for such a story. There are always things we can task from underdogs to make our own lives better. One of those things is tackling the weaknesses we allow to fester and must tackle. As always, I hope you enjoy this week's podcast and I'll see you here this time next week!

Chris’s Corner Episode #130 How To Create A Great Relationship With Food
Monday May 22, 2023
Monday May 22, 2023
This week on Chris's Corner I go on a rant about creating a great relationship with food. It seems today's society has robbed us all of the joy that is food. I'm here to tell you that you can take that responsibility back but only if you are willing to open yourself up to the world of balance. What is balance well, from my perspective it is total caloric intake, macronutrients, micronutrients, and hitting your five fruit and veg every day. Yep, it is that simple. I like to think that this podcast really nails the coffin shut on how simple your day to day eating to should be and that by cutting food groups, calories, and certain foods out of diet will not help you lead a happier healthier life. I hope this podcast can help you and also make you realise how much fun cooking can be! As always I hope you enjoy this week's podcast and as always, I'll see you this time next week.

This week on Chris's Corner I speak about the epic adventures found in the 90s and early 2000s Disney films such as Treasure planet, Tarzan, Mulan, Hercules as well as the 2010s film Tron legacy. While today, Disney create films that are re-makes, sequels, and lack imagination, the early 2000s and 90s had some seriously unique and inspiring films. I breakdown the best parts of some of the films and sum up why they have such an impact on Disney's overall success up till this point. After that I delve into the current lack of a work ethic when it comes down to people working out in your local gyms and how a message of just showing up isn't enough. Finally I talk about my current prep for the Manchester Half Marathon which is going to happen at the end of May. As always I hope you enjoy this week's episode and I'll see you this time next week.
