The Reunion - When are you doing that podcast thing again?

The Reunion - When are you doing that podcast thing again?

It's been 18 months since we last recorded and released an episode and at every event we have gone to since someone has asked "When are you guys coming back?" the truth of the matter is, we didn't know, there were so many changes going on in all our lives that the time just hasn't been right... until now!

In this episode, we discuss how our lives have changed in the past 18 months, our trials and tribulations, our successes and our downright lowest moments - it's safe to say that this isn't your usual episode, in fact, it almost gets emotional. Don't worry, there was a fair bit of ribbing too.

Thank you for sticking with us, we are so excited to be back.

#6: Anything You Want by Derek Sivers

#6: Anything You Want by Derek Sivers

This week we review the shortest book we have done so far, Anything You Want by Derek Sivers. Martin struggled to remember the title and was channelling his inner Status Quo calling it Whatever you Want in the run up to the recording but all was well by the time we opened the microphones.

With a book being so short you can read in an hour is it really any good for a business owner?
