From The Muppets to Gorillaz with Kevin Bishop

Join us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/c/Imadhd In this brilliantly chaotic and honest episode, Mine and Paul welcome actor, comedian and impressionist Kevin Bishop for a conversation that moves at the speed of his (almost) genius mind - fast, funny and unexpectedly vulnerable. Kevin talks about everything from his eerily accurate Steve Coogan impression and his early years tap-dancing in panto, to the confusion of being a working child actor thrown back into a rigid school system that never knew what to do with him. He reflects on the years he spent self-medicating with alcohol and the ongoing process of seeking an ADHD diagnosis after a lifetime of feeling out of step with the world around him. Along the way, Kevin treats us to a whirlwind of pitch-perfect impressions from Billy Connolly to Elton John, Michael Douglas and Harry Enfield… and even one of Paul himself.

On this week’s episode, Mine and Paul welcome Deborah Frances-White for a powerful and engaging conversation that traces her journey from being adopted and raised within a controlling religious community to becoming the sharp, insightful voice behind The Guilty Feminist Podcast. She reflects on how early disconnection shaped her ADHD, her creativity, and her drive to question the systems around her - all with her trademark mix of humour and emotional honesty. The discussion moves through the surprising transformative impact of ayahuasca, her evolving relationship with faith, and the ways personal history informs her activism and storytelling.

In this week’s episode, business titan and former Dragon Theo Paphitis joins Mine and Paul to explore the highs, lows, and lessons of living and learning differently. From humble beginnings and school struggles to building an empire, Theo opens up about dyslexia, his views on ADHD, education, risk-taking, and the power of persistence.  Theo also reflects on seeing parts of his own story in his children and grandchildren, many of whom share his neurodiverse traits. Their experiences remind him how far understanding has come - and why it’s vital to keep empowering every generation to think differently, take risks, and find their own path to success.

In this week’s episode, Mine and Paul sit down with Professor Sol Smith - liberal arts professor, life coach, and founder of the Square Peg neurospicy community - for a vibrant and heartfelt conversation about what it really means to live, parent, and thrive while neurodivergent. From The Beatles and creative genius to dyslexia, ADHD, and late-in-life autism diagnosis, Sol opens up about his own journey of self-discovery, the transformative power of lockdown on his family, and raising four wonderfully neurodivergent kids. The trio dive into everything from time blindness to pronouns on t-shirts, and how embracing your difference can lead to genuine connection and growth. It’s warm, funny, and unfiltered - a must-listen for anyone navigating life with (or alongside) a neurospicy brain. This episode was released early on our Patreon.

In this week’s episode, Mine and Paul welcome comedian Ed Byrne - the beloved Irish comic known for his sharp wit, self-deprecating humor, and unflinching honesty - for a candid conversation about living with ADHD. Ed opens up about his late diagnosis, the chaos and comedy of everyday forgetfulness, and how ADHD shapes his creativity, relationships, and resilience. From childhood daydreams and lost passports to the joy of hiking, hyperfocus, and fatherhood, Ed reflects on the messy brilliance of a neurodivergent mind. The conversation also turns personal as Ed discusses grief, creativity, and his acclaimed show “Tragedy Plus Time,” exploring how humour helps him process the loss of his brother and find meaning in pain.  Oh, and as for Prince’s guitar - did Ed ever sell it? You’ll have to listen to find out
