In Learning from Experience Bion described the Container as “a mesh sleeve suffused with emotions” - closer to a receptive vagina than the hard container described by Phillips. Also people who knew Bion described a man of huge openness and warmth. This includes an elderly gentleman in a Norfolk village who described to me personally what a nice man he was. I like Phillip’s construction that Bion needed to be thoughtful in order not to hurt his patients but I feel intuitively that that was more of a construction on Phillip’s part, which he acknowledges. Actually listening to AP is like listening to Bion’s heir!
This feels as if we've been dumped into the middle of a conversation between two men having a private conversation of an unknown topic. It lacks direction, meaning, and value.

Josh Cohen is thoughtful and intelligent, but we are here really for Adam Phillips. So, please, let the man talk more than you, Josh.
Just make a question and let the guest answer. Your ramblings are exhausting!
"You think you are the expert on this, but your really don't' have a clue."
TERRIBLE INTRODUCTION
Pretty sure she was played by Julia Davis
