I’m talking directly to you and not at you. So, I’m going to be far more 
less rehearsed and just go off the cuff. This may mean I might ramble a 
bit, might even sound like I’m sort of looking for words, but the approach 
is hopefully going to make your listening experience so much more 
enjoyable.

This episode to start the year is going to be a snapshot of three episodes 
that were in 2025.

"Yeah, I've got a healthy amount of delusional self belief"

We’re told to always be in the present moment … we’re told to set goals and achieve them … we’re told that life’s short and to live every moment as if it where our last. Arrrgh, what does all this mean?? As one great lyricist wrote … “No-ones an island and sometimes it’s good to pretend” When was a time in your life you let yourself be ‘you’ and gave yourself the time to pretend? “Max’s Island” the podcast, exists so you can tell others WHY!
