| 0:00.0 | This episode is brought to you by Alzheimer's Society. They offer a free will writing service to help you write or update your will easily, quickly and cost effectively. You can do it in person with a partnering solicitor, online or even over the phone, whatever works best for you. A will isn't just about ticking a box, it's a chance to reflect on the causes and values that matter most to you. |
| 0:25.6 | By choosing to include a gift to Alzheimer's Society in your will, you can help support people living with dementia, the UK's biggest killer. |
| 0:33.6 | These gifts fund a third of their work, providing help and hope to families during some of the |
| 0:39.6 | toughest times of their lives. Nobody asked for dementia to slowly erase their memories, or to feel |
| 0:46.1 | lonely and confused. But together, we can help make sure dementia no longer devastates lives. |
| 0:53.1 | It's simple to get started. |
| 0:55.0 | Search Alzheimer's Society's wills online to register and write your will for free. |
| 1:00.3 | Availability varies by location and TNCs apply. |
| 1:04.3 | Having an up-to-date will really can bring peace of mind, |
| 1:08.1 | and an opportunity to leave a legacy that makes a lasting difference. Thank you. |
| 1:17.6 | Hello and welcome to My Time Capsule. I'm Mike Fenton-Stevens, and My Time Capsule is the podcast where people tell me five things from their life that they wish they had in a time capsule. |
| 1:35.8 | They pick four things that they really love, and one thing they'd like to bury and forget. |
| 1:41.2 | My guest in this episode is Alistair Kingsley. Alistair is an Australian. He's a Melbourne-based |
| 1:47.7 | comedian, performer and writer, blending musical comedy with sharp observational humour, and is known |
| 1:53.9 | for his high-energy performances and clever catchy songs. He captivates audience with a unique |
| 1:59.6 | mix of wit, music and audience engagement. In fact, |
| 2:03.6 | he captivated me when I saw a clip of him on Instagram. I so enjoyed it that I contacted him |
| 2:09.2 | and asked him if you would like to be a guest on my time capsule. And as you probably guessed, |
| 2:13.8 | as I'm talking about him, and have already said that he was my guest, he said yes. |
| 2:19.2 | A bit of a punt, you might say. At least I think that's what the bloke shouted at me the other day. |
| 2:23.8 | Anyway, Alistair turned out to be one of the most charming and thoughtful guests. The highest praise |
| 2:29.2 | I can give him is that whoever described him as reminiscent of a young Tim Minchin wasn't wrong. |
