Meet Your Host
Craig, from the North East of England, is the 42 year-old man behind the microphone who often feels like he's already mastered the art of being 81.His appreciation for the mundane stems from a childhood spent exploring the world without the noise of the digital age. Growing up, a lack of money meant finding joy in the small, overlooked details of life, and his love for reading helped him dig deep into the surprisingly fascinating mechanics of the everyday.Craig has certainly gathered a lot of life experience: After leaving school, joining the Army, working Private Security, dabbling in the Entertainments industry, getting married and then divorced, and then settling into the Health Care Industry (both the Private and Public sector), suffering love and loss, we think it's safe to say that this journey drove him to strive for a life of simplicity... and that he deserves.Now That's Not A Very Interesting Podcast! is Craig's way of sharing that unique perspective, proving that sometimes, the most boring subjects make for the most compelling listening.
Announcements!
Important Announcement: The End of Now That's Not A Very Interesting Podcast!To all of our listeners and supporters,I am writing this to share news that I know will come as a sudden shock. As of today, Now That's Not A Very Interesting Podcast is officially coming to an end.I want to sincerely apologize for how sudden and out of the blue this announcement is. Please know how truly sorry I am to deliver this news so abruptly, but this step needs to be taken now. I have reached a point where I feel completely unable to continue.Over the past few months, I have been rapidly nearing full burnout. Managing and maintaining a full-time podcast alongside a full-time job—while trying to balance both with my personal life—has become an impossible act to sustain. I have tried my absolute hardest to keep going, but I have had to acknowledge that continuing would be deeply detrimental to both my physical and mental health.As part of this step back, the contact page and email address have now been taken down. However, this website will remain live for the time being, and all previous episodes will stay available across all podcasting platforms for whenever you want to listen back.I want to extend a massive thank you and express my deepest gratitude to everyone who has downloaded, listened, and followed along from day one over the last two years. To those of you who regularly emailed into the show and supported the project: thank you. Your loyalty and encouragement have meant the world to me.Thank you for being a part of this journey.
