Nobody Panic

This week, watching the protests happen across the world in response to the murder of innocent black man George Floyd by white police officers, we didn’t feel we could add anything to the conversation. Instead we’d love you to listen to voices more important than ours right now, to the podcasts we’re listening to as we try and learn, educate ourselves and do better.We’ll be back next week xSign the change.org Justice for George Floyd petition here.DonateMinnesota Freedom FundGeorge Floyd Memorial FundBlack Lives MatterFollow@rachel.cargle@nowhitesaviours@laylafsaad@killermike @thevitamindproject@munroebergdorf@bodyposipanda@mireillecharperListenIn Good Company with Otegha Uwagba About Race with Reni Eddo-Lodge 2 Queens In A Pod with Iman Leila and Leah MaiThe Receipts Podcast with Milena, Tolly T and Audrey Black Gals Livin' with Jas and Victoria Laid Bare with Oloni, Shakira Scott and Shani Jamilah The Sista Collective with Jessie Aru-Phillips, Scarlette Douglas and Eunice Olumide No Country for Young Women with Sadia Azmat and Monty OnanugaCode Switch with Gene Demby and Shereen Marisol MerajiFollow Nobody Panic on Twitter @NobodyPanicPodProduced by Plosive...Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/nobodypanic.

Tessa and Stevie take live questions over YouTube about everything from how to survive your first job and how to appear more confident to how to follow your dreams (even if they’re scary). Also some fun questions about when they first met each other (Stevie was horrible to Tessa) and whether they play musical instruments (no). Features three strong brandies (Stevie) and half a gin and tonic (Tessa). Recorded by Ben Williams and edited by Naomi Parnell for Plosive Productions.Photos by Marco Vittur, jingle by David Dobson.Follow Nobody Panic on Twitter @NobodyPanicPodSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/nobodypanic.

Stevie and Tessa both have imposter syndrome to varying degrees, and they’ve both done research to try and kick the habit. Or rather, as they discover, ACCEPT the habit and stop said habit from taking over your life and holding you back. You’re meant to be where you are! Own it! Go into that meeting with confidence. Don’t let opportunities freeze you with fear. You can do it! Recorded and edited by Naomi Parnell for Plosive Productions.Photos by Marco Vittur, jingle by David Dobson.Follow Nobody Panic on Twitter @NobodyPanicPodSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/nobodypanic.

Want to say something more than “I like that” when you look at art? In this BONUS EPISODE Stevie and Tessa talk to artist/comedian/podcaster Annie McGrath about how they can sound more cultured in art galleries, what classicism is and if it’s OK to think Picasso is “a bit too much”. You’ll come out of it feeling very reminiscent of the 16th century (just one of the examples of things you can say to sound clever). Follow Annie McGrath on Twitter: @AnnieMcTweet and Instagram: @mcgrath.annieListen to the Secret Artists Podcast with Annie McGrath: play.acast.com/s/secretartists and follow on Twitter:@secretartpodAnnie's Online Recommendations:Isolation Arts School: https://www.instagram.com/isolationartschool/?hl=enArtists Support Pledge: https://www.instagram.com/artistsupportpledge/?hl=enRecorded and edited by Naomi Parnell for Plosive Productions.Photos by Marco Vittur, jingle by David Dobson.Follow Nobody Panic on Twitter @NobodyPanicPodSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/nobodypanic.

Everyone wants you to love your body – but Stevie and Tessa both find that hard. Or rather, Stevie finds it hard and Tessa has come through the other side and now demands to be nude at all times. They look at the body positivity and body neutrality movements, offer great people to follow on Instagram that aren’t 90% ab and discuss why Stevie dressed like a Victorian lawyer for most of her 20s.Stevie’s follow recommendations:@bodyposipanda@radhikasanghani@libbyshappyproject@gracewoodward@stephanieyeboah@alex_cameronRecorded and edited by Naomi Parnell for Plosive Productions.Photos by Marco Vittur, jingle by David Dobson.Follow Nobody Panic on Twitter @NobodyPanicPodSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/nobodypanic.
