Sinopse

Send us a textUnified Fighting Systems founder, AG Martial Arts Centre owner, therapist and author, Andy Gibney joins the show for a look back at a childhood favourite.

Meanwhile Tigger and Eeyore provide us with opposite extremes of emotion whilst also potentially showing the benefits of enthusiasm and stoicism.
