Get ready for some feathered mayhem in episode 8. Steve and Jess are back with a mix of hilarious anecdotes and essential parrot care advice. This week, Steve shares a truly embarrassing tale of a macaw heist, where a chocolate bar disappears en route to one of the UK's strictest vets and Steve has to fess-up. Imagine the chaos!
Beyond the laughs, we dive into critical first aid, focusing on how to handle bleeding in parrots. We'll cover quick-clotting techniques and the importance of a well-prepared avian first aid kit, ensuring you're ready for those unexpected moments and always have your nearest Avian Vets number at hand.
We also address a common issue that leads to birds being rehomed: dust. Many parrot species produce significant feather dust, which can cause serious lung problems for owners. Steve and Jess emphasise the importance of recognising potential allergies before bringing a parrot home.
Join us for a blend of laughter, practical advice, and a real look at the joys and challenges of parrot ownership. Whether you're a seasoned bird enthusiast or just curious, this episode has something for everyone. Tune in and let's talk parrots!

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
