This week Dave and James are talking about the elephant in the Premier League: Manchester City's 114 out of 115 guilty charges! Spanning nearly a decade and millions in disputed income, is this potentially the biggest scandal in English football history?

So they're guilty... what happens next?

As always, enjoy, with your 'Quick Brew' ⏱️☕🎙️

(PS. this episode was recorded before the Premier League confirmed the guilty charges)

This week we welcome Nick Looby, communication specialist and author of "Modern Zombies". He speaks on stages around the world, and today he talks to us about the way we've allowed technology to replace what humans do best.

In this chat, he also shares why a phone call will always beat an email, why big tech has manipulated our language itself, and what happens when we outsource our thinking to machines. PS. He's also training for the London Marathon!

Special milestone: This episode drops exactly one year from our first pod 🎉 and it coincides with International Podcast Day. To celebrate, Nick has kindly offered to send a signed copy of his book to one lucky AQB listener. Simply like this episode on YouTube or one of our LinkedIn posts to enter. We'll announce the winner in a week, good luck!

As always, enjoy with your 'Quick Brew' ⏱️☕🎙️

This week Dave and James are back to talk about their experience exhibiting at Ideas Fest, the "Glastonbury of Business". In support of the online train-the-trainer community, Snowball, they went large with activation! A giant inflatable igloo, a yeti feeding game, and an airbrush tattoo station.

The irony?... they created the hottest igloo known to man.

But this episode is about more than the preparation and build up to the event. It includes conversation about connectivity, job losses to AI, and why humanity matters more than ever!

As always, enjoy, with your 'Quick Brew' ⏱️☕🎙️
