Unlock the Power of Positivity: Your Wellness Wake-Up Call
"Cancer, Heart Disease, Health, and Well-being — with a dose of laughter to keep us going.
These days, Cancer and Heart Disease affect far too many men and women.
Nothing truly prepares you for the shock of a diagnosis or the terrifying moment of chest pain followed by a heart attack or cardiac arrest.
In our podcast, we open up about our own journeys — from diagnosis and treatment to the vital support of family, friends, and the mental health battles in between. We dive into the resources available, both medical and financial, and share the ways outside support can make all the difference.
But it’s not all heavy. We also talk about everyday life — news, sports, hobbies, arts, crafts — the things that keep us smiling through the toughest times. Special guests join us too, bringing their own stories, experiences, and fresh perspectives.
Most importantly, our podcast is light-hearted, funny, relatable, and inspiring. It’s informative without being overwhelming — and once you tune in, you’ll want to keep coming back.
So join us, laugh with us, and remember: all we ask is just a little smile.

Season 2 - Episode 17
This week our celebrity guests continues with the Legendary Matt Lucas of stage, Screen and Film fame.
Matthew Richard Lucas is an English actor and comedian. He is best known for his work with David Walliams on the BBC sketch comedy series Little Britain and Come Fly with Me. Lucas first came to prominence on the comedy panel show Shooting Stars, in which he portrayed scorekeeper George Dawes from 1995 to 2009 keeping the scores whilst playing the drums and adding some funny skits along the way.
Little Britain is one of Matt's most successful works. Little Britain was originally launched as a radio show on BBC Radio 4 and it later became a TV series.
Since then Matt's CV has grown and grown with any TV appearances to Hollywood movies including the latest Blockbuster Gladiator II.
Matt tells us about his involvement with the Karen Morris Memorial Trust,of which he is Patron, a UK charity for Leukaemia patients and their families, a very personal link with this Charity.
Matt was raised as Jewish but has variously described himself as an atheist although his views are changing as he grows older in years. Matt is now 50 and was recently the subject of BBC's "Who do you think you are" and learned that many of his grandmother's cousins had been murdered in the Holocaust during World War two. His grandmother's cousin, Werner Goldschmidt, had lived with the family of diarist Anne Frank in Amsterdam in 1942.
Martin joins Matt in a rendition of the "Baked Potato" song made famous during the lockdown in 2020.
A great interview and we thank Matt for joining us today
