In episode 207 of The Just Checking In Podcast we checked in with entrepreneur Sunil Jindal. Sunil is also an old school friend of our Founder Freddie Cocker. Sunil is the Founder of The Ping Pong Society, a company which offers businesses and their staff bespoke one-hour long events to give them a taste of table tennis in a fun and accessible way. He is also the Co-Founder of MAGIC, a fitness-technology company which sells unique Mirrors, powered by AI that serve as your own personal fitness trainer. The products have been endorsed by a range of celebrities in sport and fitness including former England Men's Cricket captain Alistair Cook. He's also done feature interviews with media outlets including The Evening Standard and The Financial Times to promote the company alongside his co-founder Varun. In this episode we discuss Sunil's business journey, from his origins as a school ‘hustler', founding and co-founding two successful businesses and the challenges of going on those journeys, from setting them up, to work-life balance and taking risks. For Sunil's mental health, we discuss the anxiety of running a business and how that can seep into his own personal mental health. We also discuss how he was quite shy and introverted as a child, navigating that in secondary school and sixth-form and how the businesses forced him to come out of his shell and flex those social muscles in order to get the word out there about his brands. As always, #itsokaytovent Find out more about MAGIC here: https://magic.fit/ You can follow Sunil on social media below: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/5un1l/ Support Us: Patreon: www.patreon.com/venthelpuk GoFundMe: www.gofundme.com/f/help-vent-supp…ir-mental-health Merchandise: www.redbubble.com/people/VentUK/shop Music: @patawawa - Strange: www.youtube.com/watch?v=d70wfeJSEvk
SUMMARY: TWELVE games in, the latest edition of the 50-over cricket World Cup, WC23, was finally a go. With a star-studded line up of top Indian singers like Arijit Singh, Sukhwinder Singh and Shankar Mahadevan and a marquee clash of India and Pakistan, the new Motera resembled a colosseum. Which it truly wasn't. Join Zainub, Murali, VaMu, Bisi, Iman and SamMo as they dive into the damp squib that was the game. They then dive into their predictions on who makes it to the semis; on why Bumrah is the G.O.A.T bowler to Pakistani fans and a heady cocktail of takes with the panel being at different levels of sobriety.

Cambridge & District CAMRA’s pub officer Alistair Cook takes Julian through the 2024 Good Beer Guide.
Welcome back to the Bishop and Bear. There's a white ball series against New Zealand coming up and who better to chat with about that, than our guest on the Barstool of Bravado today? A former New Zealand opening bowler with 73 Test wickets no less. Eight of those were against England and included Kevin Pietersen Michael Vaughan, Alistair Cook and Andrew Strauss amongst them. An old friend of the show, he's also written a children's book called ‘Pirates Don't Play Cricket', though I'm not sure if it answers the vital question of whether you can be LBW with a wooden leg. It's Iain O'Brien of course. And he's the first person to order a Pina Colada in the Bishop and Bear too. It wouldn't be a Bishop and Bear chat if we didn't meander off topic a bit, but this one does get very interesting in a whole number of areas we weren't necessarily expecting. Here are some of the topics covered, though I wouldn't rely on the running order much if I were you. · New Zealand series – expectations? · 8 games between England and NZ, then first game up in the World Cup. How much relevance can we place on a series in England? Does familiarity breed contempt? · A bowler down for England (John Turner) and we haven't even started yet! Injuries and quick bowlers – just bad luck, or can bowlers do more to prevent damage? · Returning Boult and Rachin Ravindra in focus · World Cup predictions – India at home will be hard to beat surely? · Franchises around the world. How does Iain feel watching the changing cricket landscape? Don't forget, if you haven't yet got yourself some Ponting wine, our special offer will stay open just a little longer.

We have a new time slot! In our first Monday show, JJ reviews all the action from the weekends County Championship games. Ben Stokes made his return for Durham in a big way and Alistair Cook is still piling on the runs for Essex. JJ ends the show buy reading an article detailing the fine handed down to Essex for historic racism.
“I only loved doing well. I never really allowed myself to enjoy it. Enjoyment came through performance and feeling like I contributed to the team. If I didn't perform well I felt a huge sense of emptiness. I felt insecure. I felt pretty damn fragile a lot of the time.” My guest this week is Nick Compton, former first class cricketer and England's opening batsman. Nick had an excellent first class cricket career, making 194 appearances and clocking up 12,168 runs. He represented England in 16 Test matches, scoring back to back centuries against New Zealand, and was part of the dynamic duo with Alistair Cook that famously beat India on their own patch for the first time in 28 years. The cricket and football fans among you will no doubt recognise his surname, the entire Compton family has huge sporting pedigree. His Grandfather Denis is sporting royalty, famously playing both cricket AND football for England and Arsenal, was one of the finest cricketers to ever walk the planet, and has a stand at Lord's named after him. Nick and I became mates at Durham University back in 2002 where we lived on the same corridor and despite not having been in touch for ages, I was delighted that he accepted my invitation to come on the podcast. He has had an exceptional career and been in the limelight for much of his life. More recently he has been spending more time behind the camera lens rather than in front of it, so I wanted to hear about his burgeoning professional photography career too and future plans. Nick and I talk about what it takes to reach the top of elite sport, we talk about peak performance, mindset and visualisation, we talk about growing up in the shadow of greatness. He also generously shares the difficulties that he's facing as he transitions out of sport, when his identity and self-worth have been so tightly wound around this one profession for so long. I'm very grateful to Nick for not holding back and rendering himself somewhat vulnerable by revealing the various challenges he's faced with his mental health over two decades. I know that he would have it no other way, but it always makes for a better episode when high-profile guests bring their authentic selves to the table. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

Grandson of former Arsenal footballer and England cricket legend, Denis, Nick Compton has huge sporting pedigree and in many ways it was written in the stars that he would become a professional athlete. However, it wasn't just good genes that enabled Nick to reach the highest level - it was his unwavering focus and relentless dedication that allowed him to flourish on the international stage. In an honest reflection of his career, Nick admits that sometimes his intense focus and desire to succeed was unhealthy and contributed to feelings of anxiety and doubt. During the interview, Nick also gives a fascinating insight into the English dressing room at that time, when the side was one of the greatest in the world. A prolific opening batsman, Nick scored two centuries for England in his 16 Test matches, and impressed players, fans and media with his grit and resilience. Many in the game felt Nick deserved more than just 16 Test matches, and his record as one of Alistair Cook's most successful opening partners would corroborate that. While Nick reflects on his career with a slight disappointment that he didn't play more often, he can be proud of his performances when he was selected. Since retiring in 2016, Nick has found a new passion as a photographer. He's working hard to shine a light on communities that often don't receive the attention they should do. Check out Nick's work on his Instagram @nick.compton or website www.nickcompton.com
Former Australian fast bowler, Ryan Harris joins us to chat about his career including beating the poms 5-0, dismissing England captain Alistair Cook first ball, playing alongside Mitchell Johnson at his best, his move into coaching with the Aussies, Brisbane Heat and Dehli Capitals, and his thoughts on the rest of Indias' tour down under after the ODI series!
If you don't know Douglas Murray, in the estimation of the The Portal, this may well be the most important voice you will hear from the United Kingdom for some time. In the tradition of De Tocqueville and Alistair Cook's famous "Letter from America," Douglas Murray is America's true friend. He is not the man who tells you that you look great and laughs at all your jokes, but the one who pulls the big mac out of your mouth, flushes your cigarettes down the toilet, locks your liquor cabinet and personally drives you to rehab until you straighten yourself out. I have met many men who train in combat sports, or extoll the virtues of masculinity. However, I know of none braver than Douglas Murray. In our time, this is one voice of relentless reason that everyone needs to hear.
