## Resource

A few weeks ago Elis refused to accept the Buddhist idiom ‘the glass is already broken’. In so doing, did he set back mindfulness 10,000 billion years, or did he inadvertently birth a great podcast-first feature? We’re hoping it’s the latter; welcome to Common Zense. And top-tier podcasting doesn’t stop there, because Elis and John have also gone and created the Golden Texter, the Eagle Topic. Commercial digital indie radio, here we come (again). Elsewhere, Elis wants to nationalise headphones, John dissects his love of cowboys, and there’s another cracking TV treatment for the Cymru Connection. To send in your mindful idioms for Elis to trash, email hello@elisandjohn.com.
