We all have a different opinion, not one of us is the same but so often we come into unhealthy debates, disagreements and divides in our society. What if we told you two good mates could be so different in their values, beliefs and lifestyles yet still get along well?Â
Inspired by the divide and cancel culture that is happening within our current world, each week we will be exploring and debating topics that society is puttinâ down.Â
In this podcast, we will discuss, debate and talk about our opinions on things that are impacting both ours and the lives around us. We will hear each other out and see whether we can meet in the middle⊠or if we remain stuck and strong in our own values.Â

đJosiah and Renee chat about how they are spending Xmas.
As we approach the holiday season, many of us feel a pressure thatâs hard to shake off. Christmas, while a time for celebration, can also be a source of stress. The expectationsâwhether theyâre about the perfect gift, the ideal family gathering, or even the perfect holiday mealâcan feel overwhelming.
Itâs easy to get caught up in the idea of making everything just right, trying to live up to a picture-perfect vision that might not even be realistic.
For some, financial pressure adds to the mix. The cost of presents, travel, and the big holiday dinner can strain budgets, leaving us feeling like weâre not measuring up. On top of that, the emotional weight can feel heavy. Not everyone has the âidealâ family, and for those who experience loneliness, loss, or tension at this time of year, the holidays can amplify those feelings.
And letâs not forget the pressure to be happy. Social media often highlights only the joyful momentsâbeautifully wrapped gifts, festive decorations, and laughing family photosâbut this can make those struggling feel even more isolated.
So, how do we cope with all this? Itâs important to remember that Christmas doesnât have to be perfect to be meaningful. Sometimes, the best moments come when we let go of expectations and simply embrace whatâs in front of usâwhether thatâs a quiet moment of peace or the laughter shared with loved ones, imperfectly wonderful just as they are.
ALWAYS REMEMBER...Â
