Episode description

This week, Mine and Paul sit down with beloved Brummie broadcaster and author Adrian Chiles.

From secretive MI5 interviews to hosting Match of the Day 2, Adrian’s career has been anything but ordinary. He opens up about the surprising toll success took on his mental health - and how, at the height of his achievements, he was also at his lowest.

Adrian tells us how medication helps him manage his ADHD and shares the quiet joy he finds in everyday tasks, revealing how he reaches what he calls the “Paradise of Complete Absorption.” (Spoiler: if you enjoy stacking logs, this one’s for you.)
