Welcome to another exciting Episode of "The Good Listening To Podcast" with me Chris Grimes!
And please welcome to the GLT "Clearing" today: Brad Cowan - The Coolest Barber in Bristol - and co-owner of the iconic "Harry Blades & Angry Daves"!
This lovely man Brad has been cutting my hair for the last 15 or so years.
Let's just say "he knows me like the back of my head!"
And what's particularly cool about Brad - is that he is the closest I'll ever get to getting a Tattoo!
"Man - being a creature of habit - never changes his Mechanic or his Barber!" (or his Osteopath!)
Although I've been giving Brad less to work with over the years (!) he's still ma main man Brad!

Enjoy!
So thanks for listening to another Episode of a "GLT with me CG!"
The Podcast series that features "The Clearing": Where all good Questions come to be asked and all good Stories come to be told!
With some lovely juicy storytelling metaphors to also enjoy along the way:
The Clearing itself - A Tree (where we get to "shake your tree to see which storytelling apples fall out, in the form of a lovely storytelling exercise called "5-4-3-2-1") - some Alchemy - some Gold - and finally a Cake with a Cherry on Top!
Think "Desert Island Discs" but in a Clearing!
Also think about William Shakespeare - and about Jaques in "As You Like It" in particular:
"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages..."
Jaques: Act II Scene VII
And as my Guest in the Podcast: Now is your 'moment in the sunshine' to share your story!
Who are you? What's your story? And what 'life-lessons-learned-along-the-way' would you like to share with us? And just to get bit "existential on yo ass" too (!) what would you like your legacy to be? How would you most like to be remembered?
And all my guests have at least 2 things in common: They are all Creative individuals - and all with an interesting story to be told!
