Oh hey. A dark Tuesday here but not freezing, no power cuts and no gales. Plus the coffee is good, the house is quiet and I’ve done my work. The day is young but that’s a positive place to start the day (#optimism #keepingcalmcarryingon)
We’re talking shyness today with comedian Rhod Gilbert. He has a documentary on BBC1 Wales tomorrow in which he reveals quite how introverted he is and how ordinary, everyday occasions like buying a coffee can leave him terrified. ‘Rhod Gilbert: Stand Up To Shyness’ manages to be profound and funny at the same time. Susan Cain was on the show a while back talking about a ‘quiet revolution’ and it maybe that this is another part of that-a greater understanding of those who find ‘normal socialising’ to be a trial at best.
Rhod's after 6 and your SHY tunes will make a fine playlist
