    'Everything that is wrong in your life is your fault.'

    Some more strong and positive words of encouragement to help you get happy from your favourite writer, thinker and whisky drinker, Will Carver.


    This week, Will looks at a study that suggests the unhappiest time in a person's life is when they hit the grand old age of 47, and why this is a warning sign for author Anna Bailey and laughable for world champion rower...Anna Bailey.


    He also got around to reading The Alchemist, after having it sit on a shelf for two decades.

    He doesn't look a thing like Jesus.

    The Boston Red Sox baseball team, the resurrection of Christ, and John Travolta in Pulp Fiction. This week, Will is talking about making a comeback. Everyone loves a good Cinderella story but how are we going to make a comeback in the future if we are not making an impact in the present? How can we succeed if we are not being allowed to fail?

    2026/03/21

    Will is back! And he's bored of the attention that people are getting for living in the extremes of opinion.

    He's been away doing some things he can't talk about, while thinking about bean soup, dead friends, and how we can all make a little difference to the world by realising that it's not all about us.


    Oh, and here is a video of a bean soup recipe: https://tinyurl.com/436caywb

    Waiting on the World to Change.
    2025/10/01

    He's back!

    And he's been thinking about stuff.


    In the first episode of a new season, Will talks about stupidity. He considers the best way to gain a following and build an audience, and whether it's really worth it to lean to one side or be controversial for the sake of it.

    How do we get from the place we are at now, to the place that we really want to be?

    And why are smart people are so annoyingly stupid?

  • Comedy = Tragedy + Time

    Comedy = Tragedy + Time
    2025/07/04

    It's award season in the book world and Will has one he would like to give out to a book reviewer.


    This episode, thoughts turn towards political correctness and context. Who are the guardians of morality? When is the right time to discuss tough subjects? How can we use comedy to make a serious point? And why is there not a wanky writers' association?

    An Australian Bush Tomato With No Stable Sexual Expression

    On the publication day of Will's new novel, Kill Them With Kindness, he talks about tolerance and intolerance. How a specific tomato can change its sex and how Pope Francis was right about the world.


    Lot's of topics are covered in this episode after having a short break: The 1995 Rugby World Cup, the Suffragette movement, civil rights and the joys of attending an all-boys school.


    Take a trip through time as we discover why the first picture of lightning tells us just how grateful we all should be and why we should try to do a little more than we do.
