THE SEARCH FOR FREEDOM & THE MYSTERIES OF IDLING REVEALED

We discussed ...

As a child, not wanting to be told what to do

Wanting freedom; avoiding work slavery

We create our own traps and restrictions

Idleness and creativity intertwined

Publishing magazines from the age of 8

The Idler: the anarchistic idealistic magazine

What would you do if you had a million pounds?; do it anyway

Your best mate is a genius

Can you make a living out of doing what you want to do? - yes but it's not easy 

The Beatles are a good business model: a hard day's play

Running a bookshop is not as easy as it sounds

Noticing when something isn't it and moving on from it

Rural seclusion on a dilapidated farm in Devon; harder than we thought

Juggling the needs for income, comfort, ease and freedom

When your therapist tells you to quit your job

What we think we want may not actually be much fun

Stoic wisdom of 'indifference' - freedom from disturbance

The dangers of working too hard; the importance more idling time for all

What is Freedom and Do you Want it?
