Habits, Routines, and Isms: The Autopilots That Keep Us Sane?

As creatures of habit, our lives are profoundly shaped by the patterns of behaviour we repeat daily, often subconsciously. 

Left sock before right? Is it a coffee or a run before engaging the brain?

In the latest episode of Talking Cod, Dave, Phil and Andy talk about the routines that keep us sane. Or just about.

How do we create habits that propel us forward? What role do our daily routines play in overall success and happiness? And just how flexible are we in the face of established patterns?

As always, if you like what you hear, give us a like, share and a follow. And maybe a comment. Or, if you want to get involved, email us at [e-mail].

What is Talking Cod: a survivor’s guide to middle age?

Three northern blokes talk about midlife and growing old disgracefully: the kind of things you want to say, but rarely ever do.

Hosts David Eccles, Phil Birchenall and Andy Hall explore how confronting life head-on - with all the crap it throws your way - makes you stronger, older, bolder and, of course, that little bit wiser.

We’ll share our own experiences and talk to friends about life’s ups and downs, what’s worked, and what definitely didn’t.


Frank, fearless, funny. Talking Cod.
