This week, Jacki and Lyle discuss the age old phenomenon that is the January Blues! As we head into February in 2024, our hosts open up about how their January was, and what their plans are now that the traditionally blue month is behind them. Jacki analyses how businesses deal with the January blues, and also breaks down with Lyle the responsibility we, the public, have as well as the media in particular when it comes to finding the good stories in the midst of the conflicts and other bad news stories that will always persist throughout the news worldwide. The team once again discuss the Post Office scandal in this regard, with Jacki pointing out that the story of Lord Arbuthnot and his support for Mr Bates and the campaign as a whole was only reported on as part of a wider 'bad' news story, with Lyle outlining that, particularly in the midst of such a difficult month for so many, journalists should be looking to elevate these good news stories and make them stand out amongst the bad. There is also time to discuss Lyle's failure to fully understand the physics behind his new whiteboard, and his propensity to say Macbeth in theatres!
