 It’s MarshyCast time again! 

Hello you lovely lot! I hope you’re enjoying the warmer weather, longer days, and possibly even some bank holiday fun! Whether you're out in the sunshine, stuck in traffic, or hiding from relatives, I’ve got another cracking episode lined up for you. 

As always, if you want even more of me (and let’s be honest, who doesn’t?), you can catch my weekday radio shows on Express FM and HGV1 Radio, as well as my other podcasts: Portsmouth People and Major Mum Hacks with the brilliant Casey Major Bunce—all available via the Express FM website. And of course, follow me on socials for behind-the-scenes bits and daily nonsense. 

On this week’s episode: 

🐾 Dr Tammie King explains why more of us are turning to our pets for emotional support rather than our partners when life gets stressful. We chatted about the science behind the comfort our furry friends give us, and what this says about modern relationships. Spoiler alert: your dog may know you better than your spouse. 

🏡 Etiquette expert Jo Bryant joins me to run through the essential do’s and don’ts for the bank holiday weekend—whether you’re the host or the guest. From what to bring to when to leave, Jo’s got you covered so you can avoid any social faux pas and keep the in-laws sweet. 

🧠 And finally, I caught up with the ever-brilliant Dr Amir Khan about how we can tackle forgetfulness—though ironically, I almost forgot to do the interview. We talked about the science of memory, why we’re all feeling a bit more forgetful lately, and practical tips to sharpen your mind. 

Thanks as always for tuning in—you’re a legend for sticking around to the end. Like, share, subscribe, tell a friend, shout it out of a window… whatever works. I’ll be back next week with more great guests and questionable jokes.
