  • A Father's Day reflection feat. Philippa Hanna and Jessie Dipper
    Jun 15 2024

    After a few months of radio silence following on from a busy season, team Wooly are back for a special edition podcast, reflecting on Father's Day. While on route to Heathrow at 3.30AM, Cath and Dai reflect on the journey so far - the process of grief, the anniversary days and Dai reflecting on missing Dad, and longing to be a Dad.
    Cath and Dai also share how Father's Day also happens to be the 1 year anniversary of Bear Woolridge's due date.

    "As raw as some of the conversation are, the process of processing together has been a lament that journeys to hope, and we pray it is for you also. We are incredibly blessed to have two superstar guests and friends feature on this pod with creative contributions that speak and sing hope into the grief baked holes. Philippa Hanna joins Dai as they share a spoken word / song collab 'Dad shaped holes', and Jessie Dipper offers a beautiful sung lament, which she wrote as a response to the 4 eyes podcast 'Due Date' last year."

    "As ever, the heartfelt our convos are littered with faith chats, impromptu welsh hymns, and Team Wooly silliness. May they bring a smile to your face and be like balm for your soul."

  • Easter Saturday and the in-between
    Apr 9 2023

    Cath and Dai reflect on the in-between of Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday - Easter Saturday. Many of us feel like we're still in the Easter Saturday of life, where things didn't go the way we expected, where we struggle to cling on to hope, where we feel in the messy middle. Yet we hold on, because no matter what awaits us, we have hope - because Sunday's coming.
