Now personally I love Autumn. Give me crisp mornings and the rich orange and brown colours of leaves to look at and I’m thrilled, not to mention that you get an excuse to start drinking hot chocolate more.

Well we’re here. It’s August and that means this blog has been going for a year. I’ve said this before but I will say it again (and no doubt many more times in the future) thank you to anyone who reads this and or listens to our shows.

The Caffeine Addled Archives are going strong and keeping us all on our toes as we continue to log our thoughts and completely reasonable views regarding David Bowie vs David Attenborough (and yes I did just have to search how to spell his name). Mr. Attenborough I love your work and you are a legendary figure in nature documentaries and broadcasting but that’s a lot of letters to type.

For those of you who check out our Caffeine Addled Minds podcast feed you may have noticed our next project is up and available to listen to. Addled Archives are posted weekly in theory and the idea is we give voice note updates on what it is like in our lives as a Caffeine Addled Mind, and yes sometimes we end up having voice note debates with one another.

It’s May and that’s frankly crazy. Did I (being the nerd I am) consider moving the publishing date forwards by one day? Of course, but I didn’t because I’m trying to be consistent and this is in no way a Star Wars blog so it would have been pointless. Do I want to do a Star Wars blog post? Obviously, but there are almost certainly countless ones dedicated to all things Star Wars so I’ll let it slide.

Nutbusters (our actual play podcast) may have finished airing, but we will have more to come out. The CaffeineAddledMinds feed will not remain quiet for long. Nutbusters season two is recorded and editing has begun, however there will be some other none Nutbusters related episodes dropping soon so if you don’t like actual play content then don’t worry, I promise that isn’t the only thing we will be uploading to that feed. (Seriously I’ve been so busy this month I only just had chance to finish the Star Trek DVD’s that arrived during my last post.)

Our actual play podcast Nutbusters is now airing, the first two episodes having dropped last month. You can check it out by searching for our Caffieneaddledminds podcast channel (this is where shows that don’t fall under our main three can be found).

Well, we’re here in 2026 (though I have started writing this in 2025). I don’t know about you, but I’m ready to go into this year with about as much enthusiasm as I can muster (which is to say I am writing this in my comfy clothes on the sofa instead of at my desk) putting off getting ready to go to work. (I have time).

Here at the Caffeine Addled Minds Headquarters we are well aware that December is a mixed time for some. And hey that’s alright. So I won’t go on and on about all the overly fantasised aspects of this month like some advert full of fake smiles, too perfect food and decorations that in reality would blind you they seem to be so shiny.
