At Min y Don, we’re missing every single one of you! So whilst we’re all confined to our homes we thought now would be a great time to start the Min y Don podcast: Little Lounge Talks!
Little Lounge Talks #23Itâs âbig announcementâ time as our hosts have some news especially for you the listener(s). Intrigued? Youâll just have to tune in and find out! Things I can tell you are that: Joe & Jake discuss the breathing habits of a turtle, tourism in Dunkirk and the final instalment of Teddyâs holiday adventure.
We hear the latest on Min y Don Adventure Days and Joe speaks on Colossians 2: 6 â 7; encouraging us to put our roots into Jesus in order to grow strong. Finally â after all this time, we learn how Jake managed to acquire his incredibly muscular physique.
Little Lounge Talks #22This week on LLT we are quite literally coming into land with our Adventures with Teddy – his travels are coming to an end. Jake is back with more animal facts. This time – did you know that thereâs an animal that sneezes salt? Tune in to find out which one, and finally, where do we turn in a crisis? Joe talks about looking to God in every circumstance in life.
Little Lounge Talks #21What would a hedgehog look like without its spines? Would it look anything like a kiwi? (The bird that is, not the fruit). This and many other crucial matters are discussed in episode 21 where we also hear about Teddy’s holiday, the MYD Adventure Days, and another ‘would-you-rather?’ Finally Jake looks at Psalm 27:14 which encourages us to be patient & trust; waiting for the Lord.
Little Lounge Talks #20Join us this week, as our hosts chat through preparations for welcoming people, back to Min y Don. Also what is the best take-out meal you decide? Our journey with âTeddyâ continues to produce the best in our creative listeners. And finally we hear some thoughts on Psalm 23 encouraging us to be confident in God who is with us always.
Little Lounge Talks #19Back from their travels, our hosts tackle a wide range of issues such as the mercenary streak in penguins & whether birds (or any creature) can swallow food in space. We gain an insight into the Worldâs second best tourist attraction (after Min y Don of course) and although he no doubt regrets it now; Jake impersonates a peacock. We have the latest news on âWhereâs Teddy?â and finally, in order to stay grounded, we hear some thoughts on Psalm 18, reminding us to rely on God and not ourselves.
Little Lounge Talks #18How many times have you been up Cader Idris? Probably not as many as this weekâs Mystery Guest. Stayed tuned to find out who it is.

Little Lounge Talks #15This week Joe gives some expert advice on car maintenance and our hosts discuss which is more likely; getting bitten by a shark, or getting bitten by a human in New York? They assess a duckâs potential to surf and dream of a trip to Legoland. Thereâs discussion about canoe games and Joe brings us a message from Acts Chapter 8 challenging us to look beyond our current circumstances, which can sometimes be hard, and see the bigger picture of what God is doing. Finally, we all need to address the vitally important question, âWhere is Pete?â
Little Lounge Talks #14In a monster episode this week the two main protagonists from the Great Bagel Debacle literally go head to head. This will, we hope â finally end the ongoing saga of Pre-cut vs Unsliced. How will you decide?
We have another âwould you rather?â and Jake looks at Micah 6v8, challenging us to look at the part we need to play in order for God to work out the best plans and purposes He has for our lives.
Little Lounge Talks #13This week, not one but two âwould you rathersâ! We have a competition to test your building skills. Joe reflects on John Chapter 4 and asks if it matters to God where you are when you connect with Him.
Finally; thereâs a warning for anyone who might have foolishly underestimated the punching power of a shrimp.

Youâll get to meet another mystery guest and hear about how awesome it is that God has brought the rainbow, and therefore a reminder of His promises, back to the forefront of our everyday lives.

We have a “first” in that our mystery guest is a former staff member who joins us via live satellite link-up (well, a phone call actually). He talks about how Jesus gives us room to explore our doubts.
Finally we ask ,’which famous person would you make – if you could make them out of food’ ?
