A coming-of-age, audio fiction comedy with a difference. Our ageing heroine shares senior moments, family relationships and adventures—entertaining and a wee bit provocative. In Seasons 6 to 9 some ancient Greek deities choose her to 'save the planet' - if she only knew what her superpower was. Written, performed and produced by Aussie-born, Liverpool-based actress, singer-songwriter and performance poet Flloyd Kennedy with guest performers on 3 continents. ★★★★★ "This is delightful storytelling from Flloyd Kennedy. Gentle but deceptively sharp; underestimate the characters populating this podcast at your own peril. The writing, performance and music are all a joy." I use Buzzsprout and it makes hosting this podcast a smooth and enjoyable process.

100 Percent Fool Proof! (Really?)
Helen takes the goddess Demeter to task for providing her with superpowers without any idea how to use them, and the goddess/nymph Cyllene seems to support her. Helen's on a mission to get it right next time.

Divine Dilemma and a Rooftop Parley
Picking up from where we left off at the end of Episode 3, Helen enjoys a catchup coffee with her neighbours Jennifer, Harry and Nana Madeleine, while Hera and the children try find the 'buzzard' that flew off. Zeus thinks he's so clever, but he's not the only one who can transform in the wink of an eye.
Thank you so much for your support. Please remember to spread the word, tell your friends, your grandparents, your grandchildren. You're never too young, or too old, to enjoy a silly story about what other young, and not so young any more folk might get up to, if given half a chance.
AND ANOTHER THING: check out Wendy Lap's podcast The Richard Osman Fan Club, for a very funny tale of derring-do - with me in it! https://lnns.co/HfugmUqKYeA

We've Got Bagels!
Episode 5 and Helen finds dealing with Greek royalty to be a challenge. She seems to be able to manage her great age rather better than they do. Hashtag Not All Old People...fill in your own cliche. And Nana Madeleine is concerned about the welfare of Mina, the homeless lady.
This weeks episode features Wendy Lap as Hera, Ira Seidenstein as Zeus, Roy Carruthers as Harry (from next door) and Flloyd plays Helen, Nana, Janey and Susan. The theme music is from John T La Barbera's album "In The Labyrinth". And the image for this episode is courtesy of the versatile Wendy Lap.
