The Secret Life Of A Gambler // with James Maguire (August 2019)

Episode 34

Monday, August 26, 2024 • Duration 01:32:50

*****ORIGINALLY RELEASED AUGUST 2019*****

Capital FM Producer James tells me about his life and how gambling addiction took a severe grip on him.

He explains the stresses and pressures in detail, and how the disease impacted and infected every inch of his life. We talk about the spiralling problem, the debt issues incurred as a result, and how suicide became the most viable option in his eyes.

As with every episode of Blethered, we reach the light at the end of the tunnel. With the help of Gamblers Anonymous, James fought back and took control and has turned things around.

This is an honest, raw, dark and inspiring account of the affliction - and we even laughed the whole way through the conversation - even when it got really dark. James doesn't hold back and this can stand as an example to anyone else suffering in a similar situation.

'Not Indian Enough To Get Away With Doing The Voice' // with Comedian James Gardner

Season 5 · Episode 30

Wednesday, July 31, 2024 • Duration 01:49:12

James - by his own definition - is a journeyman. He’s been a DJ, a TV producer, a TV presenter, a footballer in the Philippines, a double glazing salesman and now - one of Scotlands best stand up comedians.

Born in Glasgow to an Indian mother and Glaswegian father, he had a unique and distinct perspective on life from the very outset. You’ll hear about his upbringing, his younger sister Lauren and older brother Alexander. Alexander has complex additional needs and requires 24 hour care - something James unravelled in great detail in one of his previous stand up shows.

You’ll hear James talk about comedy and what makes things funny, regardless of how dark the subject matter is…

We talk about his genuinely fascinating career path and how it’s led him to where he is today, with a good few funny stories for good measure…

And James talks me through what he describes as a breakdown, and the clarity of vision and purpose that followed as a result.

Celtic, Life Thereafter & Beating Cancer // with Dean Richardson

Episode 19

Wednesday, July 28, 2021 • Duration 01:10:52

Former footballer Dean Richardson talks about his days as a youth player at Celtic in the early 2000’s and the progression of his career after leaving Celtic Park.

On top of that, there’s some funny stories about nights in the cells in Dublin and physical assaults from the enigmatic Tommy Gravesen after beating him at pool.

But most importantly, Dean tells me about his recent testicular cancer battle at only 34 years of age, and how vital early detection was in saving his life.

You’ll hear great advice and we dismantle the notion of embarrassment when it comes to something so serious.
