I'm ADHD! No You're Not

For our landmark 60th episode, we’re joined by the brilliantly candid Sarina and Roger Taylor. In this, Roger Taylor’s first-ever podcast appearance, they open up about late ADHD diagnosis, the realities of masking, and the practical strategies that help them navigate daily life, from medication and mindfulness to lists, routines, and even Sarina’s famous “beans” system.We explore the emotional side of late diagnosis, the importance of support and self-acceptance, and how neurodivergence can shape both struggle and strength. It’s an intimate, high-profile, and very special conversation with plenty of laughs, heartfelt moments, and a few surprises along the way. Hosted on Acast.

In this week’s episode, punk icon John Lydon (Johnny Rotten) joins the mayhem, bringing his razor-sharp wit, childhood stories of meningitis and memory loss, brutal nun-schooling, empathy, pain, humour, drugs, love, loss, and a lifetime of refusing to sit neatly in anyone’s box - especially not one labelled ADHD. Part interview, part therapy session, and part verbal battle, this episode shows a side of John Lydon most people have never seen: tender, reflective, philosophical, and fiercely funny - even when he’s derailing every question Mine tries to ask.Never Mind the B*******, here’s the podcast.

We're on Patreon!In this illuminating conversation, Mine and Paul sit down with clinical psychologist and UCL researcher Dr. Josh Stott, the lead author behind the recent study that sparked national headlines when it contended that adults diagnosed with ADHD have a reduced life expectancy. Dr. Stott clarifies what the data actually says - and what it absolutely does not say - unpacking the nuances behind diagnosis rates, contributing lifestyle factors, smoking and mental-health risks, gender differences, and why the media’s interpretation missed the mark.The discussion travels widely: from the underdiagnosis of ADHD and autism (especially in women and older adults), to how exclusion and stigma shape later-life health outcomes and the misconceptions around medication. Blending humour with depth, the hosts and Dr. Stott explore the societal, clinical, and personal forces that shape the neurodivergent experience. Hosted on Acast.
