I'm ADHD! No You're Not

In this week’s episode, punk icon John Lydon (Johnny Rotten) joins the mayhem, bringing his razor-sharp wit, childhood stories of meningitis and memory loss, brutal nun-schooling, empathy, pain, humour, drugs, love, loss, and a lifetime of refusing to sit neatly in anyone’s box - especially not one labelled ADHD.  Part interview, part therapy session, and part verbal battle, this episode shows a side of John Lydon most people have never seen: tender, reflective, philosophical, and fiercely funny - even when he’s derailing every question Mine tries to ask. Never Mind the B*******, here’s the podcast.

This episode was released early on our Patreon England prop and World Cup champion Hannah Botterman joins Mine and Paul for an honest, hilarious dive into life as a neurodivergent athlete. From growing up in a rugby family to being kicked out of college, from “van-life” painting and decorating to unexpectedly earning her England caps, Hannah shares the chaotic, funny, and vulnerable moments that shaped her. She opens up about her late ADHD diagnosis, emotional dysregulation, the impact on relationships, and how medication and understanding coaches changed everything. Hannah also talks about the post–World Cup crash, knee-slide injuries, LGBTQ+ visibility in sport, and what she hopes for the future of women’s rugby.

We're on Patreon! In this illuminating conversation, Mine and Paul sit down with clinical psychologist and UCL researcher Dr. Josh Stott, the lead author behind the recent study that sparked national headlines when it contended that adults diagnosed with ADHD have a reduced life expectancy. Dr. Stott clarifies what the data actually says - and what it absolutely does not say - unpacking the nuances behind diagnosis rates, contributing lifestyle factors, smoking and mental-health risks, gender differences, and why the media’s interpretation missed the mark. The discussion travels widely: from the underdiagnosis of ADHD and autism (especially in women and older adults), to how exclusion and stigma shape later-life health outcomes and the misconceptions around medication. Blending humour with depth, the hosts and Dr. Stott explore the societal, clinical, and personal forces that shape the neurodivergent experience.

Join us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/c/Imadhd In this brilliantly chaotic and honest episode, Mine and Paul welcome actor, comedian and impressionist Kevin Bishop for a conversation that moves at the speed of his (almost) genius mind - fast, funny and unexpectedly vulnerable. Kevin talks about everything from his eerily accurate Steve Coogan impression and his early years tap-dancing in panto, to the confusion of being a working child actor thrown back into a rigid school system that never knew what to do with him. He reflects on the years he spent self-medicating with alcohol and the ongoing process of seeking an ADHD diagnosis after a lifetime of feeling out of step with the world around him. Along the way, Kevin treats us to a whirlwind of pitch-perfect impressions from Billy Connolly to Elton John, Michael Douglas and Harry Enfield… and even one of Paul himself.

On this week’s episode, Mine and Paul welcome Deborah Frances-White for a powerful and engaging conversation that traces her journey from being adopted and raised within a controlling religious community to becoming the sharp, insightful voice behind The Guilty Feminist Podcast. She reflects on how early disconnection shaped her ADHD, her creativity, and her drive to question the systems around her - all with her trademark mix of humour and emotional honesty. The discussion moves through the surprising transformative impact of ayahuasca, her evolving relationship with faith, and the ways personal history informs her activism and storytelling.
