It's difficult being human.

Which reminds me, yesterday, you may have missed it, Siobhan McSweeney was our guest on Being Human.

Guest number four.

And as I say at the beginning of the podcast, Siobhan is brilliant.

She is funny, articulate.

She's thoughtful.

And she's a reverend, which I do like because it's something I'm not.

We often like things in other people that we don't possess ourselves.

And that's part of the explanation of opposites attracting.

We see things in other people that we would like to be, but we're not.

And we find that attractive.

Anyway, Siobhan McSweeney is there.

And next week, it's Roisin Ingle.

And the week after then, we've Professor Brendan Kelly, who's a psychiatrist, who's written or co-written 14 books.

He's written a book on happiness.

He's written a book on Buddhism.

He's a practicing psychiatrist and he's a font of information.

So that's week six.

And then as a bonus episode...

Back when I was in the thick of it, back October, November, December, I sat down with Chat GPT and talked to Chat GPT about being human.
