Paul McKenna on mindset, happiness and catching bad guys.

Author: Kate Thornton January 8, 2026 Duration: 40:20

Welcome to 2026!


We've lined up the perfect guest for our first episode of the new year. Paul McKenna has helped millions of people with his books, DVDs, CDs & downloads. He's one of the best-selling self-help authors on the planet, and in this chat he opens up about finding love through hypnotism, the darker side of hypnotism and the ethics of toying with someone's self-conscious.


It's a fascinating conversation and we hope it helps add some positivity to what can feel like the longest month of the year!


We are fast approaching our 500th episode, so we'd love to know what your favourite episodes have been, how long you've been listening and what you enjoy about the podcast - feel free to drop us an email to hello@whitewinepod.com


From all of the team at White Wine Question Time we'd like to wish you a Happy New Year, and all the best for 2026.

There’s a particular kind of conversation that happens after a glass or two of wine, where guards come down and real stories emerge. That’s the atmosphere White Wine Question Time captures so perfectly. Hosted by Kate Thornton, each episode gathers well-known friends for a relaxed yet revealing chat, structured around three thoughtful questions and, of course, a shared bottle. What unfolds is less a formal interview and more a glimpse into the genuine friendships behind the public personas. You’ll hear laughter, unexpected confessions, and perspectives on culture, society, and current events that rarely make the headlines. This podcast thrives in the space between entertainment and intimate disclosure, often veering into comedy as these candid discussions unfold. With a vast back catalogue of over 450 episodes, each one feels like pulling up a chair to a fascinating table. Whether you start with the latest release or browse the extensive archive, you’re guaranteed a listen that’s as engaging and relevant as it is genuinely enjoyable.
