Are we too old to change our lives?

Do you ever feel like there’s no point in trying something new and just give up?

Andy’s friend, Jason Boyle, joins the conversation in a special episode. Insightful, full of positive energy, Jason is a mentor (like Andy, Dave, and Phil) and shares with us who his first mentor was (a super cool Mancunian), how he recently transformed his life, setting up global communities, how he teaches kids social media, and how he recently found love from a distant land.

Jason is an inspirational fellow (of Architecture and Arts), founder of the GAA with 4k members…and is also of a certain age (old), like us.

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.
