It’s perfect for people who listen to the Full Stop podcast and would like to get more involved in the longest running podcast for the childless community.

As with all groups comes the introduction. Like many who are childless, not by choice, I think about the words long before I say them. Being too honest can instantly create judgment or pity.

Episode themes for 2024

Our December podcast is always popular even in August. Here’s how you can take part in sharing a holiday message with our audience.

Men’s health and well-being are at the heart of Episode 57 of The Full Stop podcast “Why is nobody talking about childless men?” It will be released for International Men’s Day on 19th November 2023 on our website and all major listening channels across the world.

We collaborate, never compete, and invest in supportive relationships which is the best way to help all who are childless.

Find out more about what’s inside our new, secure online space where you can meet other people, find support, connections and chat.

We also talk on other podcasts; all three of us know the power of speaking with authenticity and how that can share our stories to a greater, diverse audience so that we can learn together.

Did you find that somewhere in this life, you lost your self-worth? If you did, then welcome to my story. It’s one we hear a lot in our community conversations; we share those sentiments and experiences ourselves as presenters.

Last summer saw a change in our male childless community as we changed the name of The Clan Of Brothers to The Childless Men's Community (CMC). A long story short, we got feedback from some of our American community that what I thought was a great name leaning into my ancestral Scottish heritage turns out to be perceived in a totally different way in the US.

As I look back, I have had two great passions in my life. One of those is my fascination with people’s stories and the other is running; both of which came together in a glorious fusion in a podcast episode from July 2022 with Rob Hutchings. Adventure triathlete, wild swimmer, yoga teacher and now author of ‘Downriver Nomad’.

It speaks volumes about a year when you have to record your review of the year episode twice doesn’t it! It wasn’t that the first recording was awful, but we just realised how tired we are, because there has been a lot going on in the community and outside for each of us. 

We were on Twitter throughout and very quickly began to see the powerful unity that this amazing event was creating.

It is entering a party we didn’t want to attend but finding it’s got some great bits but some awful moments too but knowing everyone will gather with you for a rousing chorus of ‘My Way’ whenever you wish.

I meant every single word. And if it comes to pass that this hyperbole becomes fact, you can be assured I’m marching with you into battle, and I suspect a few parents will be too.

It’s not avoidance, we all know it’s there. But if we go to the shops or out (remember going out?) we can prepare ourselves for exposure. But if you’ve had yet another phone call or WhatApp with your sibling and his two kids who want you to celebrate and you’ve Had Enough, the invasion of your inbox can feel like a bit bloody much!

It’s not our podcast, we are your voices and we want to include you on every step of our journey to securing the future of The Full Stop.
