This week on the pod we're joined by the legend Dean Saunders. Now best known for his TalkSPORT appearances, but many moons ago he was managing “two strikers who could do things Haaland couldn't” our very own Chris Brown and Jon Parkin… and he didn't have a bad playing career either. Dean's training sessions have gone down in Under The Cosh folklore, especially for the prizes handed out, including a racehorse for Friday's man of the match. Today, we finally hear straight from the horse's mouth (Saunders, not Constitution Hill

This episode dismantles the myth of “one-size-fits-all retirement,” arguing that retirement isn't a date, an age, or a lifestyle—it's a personal transition that demands both an income plan and a purpose plan. Don and Tom explore the growing trend of “un-retiring,” why fear and economic anxiety are lousy motivators for going back to work, and how a lack of planning fuels unnecessary worry later in life. Listener questions cover smart uses of 529-to-Roth conversions, parking large sums of cash, Roth strategies for young investors, rebuilding emergency funds without sabotaging retirement, and why converting Vanguard mutual funds to ETFs in taxable accounts is often a no-brainer. The through-line is clear: stop predicting the future, stop reacting emotionally, and build flexible plans that let your money support the life you actually want. 0:04 Retirement isn't a script, a date, or a finish line 0:56 The myth of “retire at 65 and stop living” 1:20 The rise of “un-retiring” and why Disney hires retirees 3:22 Fear-based reasons people go back to work 4:28 Why retirees often worry more, not less 5:10 Studies showing how many retirees expect to work again 6:38 Income plans vs. purpose plans in retirement 7:16 The Dalai Lama, retirement, and dark humor 8:16 Using leftover 529 money for a future Roth IRA 10:31 Anton Chekhov's The Bet and money as a moral test 12:08 Parking $3.5M: T-bills vs. high-yield savings 14:30 Why holding massive cash piles is usually a mistake 16:21 Interest-rate predictions and the illusion of certainty 19:17 How (and where) people actually listen to podcasts 21:02 Mortgage rates under 6% and why context matters 23:15 Roth IRAs for young investors and compounding reality 25:12 VT vs. AVGE vs. AVGV for long-term simplicity 27:51 Disney's $60B expansion and what it says about costs 31:07 Rebuilding emergency funds without derailing retirement 33:32 Converting Vanguard mutual funds to ETFs in taxable accounts 35:20 Why small tax efficiencies matter over decades Learn more about your ad choices.

This week we have Jonjo Shelvey in the hot seat, a man with one of the best talents we have ever seen in matching football players up to what boots they wore. Signing for Liverpool at a young age he tells us what it was like to play with his hero Gerrard and how he ended up being his next door neighbour. At Newcastle we hear stories of fights, Rafa stealing prawns of plates and what Mike Ashley was really like. Towards the later end of his Jonjo went through a tough time revealing what really happened at Forest and how going to Turkey forced him into one of the darkest places he has ever been.

#679: Will you still have a job in five years? Zack Kass, former OpenAI executive and 16-year AI veteran, joins us to tackle the question that keeps knowledge workers up at night. Most people worry about the economics — who can pay the bills if AI takes their job? Kass flips the question: What happens when work no longer defines who you are? He argues we're heading for an identity crisis bigger than any economic disruption. In this conversation, Kass explains why everyone wants everyone else's job automated (faster legal services, cheaper healthcare) but nobody wants their own work to disappear. He shares why some jobs will vanish while others explode in demand, and which professions might actually benefit from AI disruption. You'll discover why the real threat isn't job loss — it's that we've become addicted to our devices and forgotten how to live without constant work. Kass reveals how financial illiteracy keeps people trapped in debt cycles that AI could help break. He explains why housing, healthcare, and education costs stay high while everything else gets cheaper, and what might finally change that dynamic. The conversation explores what happens when AI makes basic needs affordable for everyone. Kass predicts some people will pursue passion projects, others will double down on work, and many will struggle to answer a simple question: What do you actually want to do with your day? We discuss practical realities like how a 53-year-old attorney might reinvent herself, why accountants face bigger challenges than lawyers, and which human skills will become more valuable as machines get smarter. Kass shares his theory about competing on kindness rather than intelligence when AI can outthink us all. This isn't another doom-and-gloom AI prediction. Kass makes a compelling case that automation could free us to rediscover community, creativity, and purpose … if we can get past our addiction to both work and screens long enough to imagine what that life looks like.

In this unforgettable episode of Be Your Best You! with Tash & Becky, we're joined by America's top psychic medium, Amie Balesky, who opens up about her extraordinary journey through multiple near-death experiences and her life's work connecting with the spirit world.Amie shares how her abilities deepened after surviving cancer as a child, and how she now supports thousands through grief by helping them understand that loved ones never truly leave. With a grounded and heart-led approach, she explains how energy, vibration, humour, and intuition all play a role in mediumship — and why the other side wants us to live fully, not fear what comes next.This conversation is both comforting and awakening, offering practical wisdom for anyone navigating loss, spirituality, or the deeper meaning of life.✨ Key Takeaways: ⭐ There is no end to existence — loved ones remain present beyond physical death ⭐ Near-death experiences can heighten intuition and deepen spiritual awareness ⭐ Communication with spirits happens through vibration, energy, and subtle signs ⭐ Souls continue growing after death and often support us from the other side ⭐ Fear blocks connection; neutrality and openness create clarity ⭐ Mediumship can provide profound healing and comfort during grief ⭐ Humour helps create safety and connection in spiritual sessions ⭐ Every experience happens for a reason, even when we can't see it yet ⭐ Life is meant to be lived fully — not cautiously or fearfully ⭐ We are all capable of connecting with our own intuition and inner guidanceAmie's message is a beautiful reminder that we are never alone, and that the greatest honour we can give to those who have passed is to live — deeply, bravely, and with love.

An ex boss for Parky on this week, one who joined him in the infamous Bull many times before away trips. Starting out his playing career at Spurs Darren Caskey came through a side full of characters from Gazza to Neil Razor Ruddock with chaos surrounding him in that environment. After leaving Spurs Caskey dropped down the divisions but not the level of entertainment with tales of getting arrested on holiday, getting headbutted by Alan Pardew & having important meetings while suffering from a sinus.  This show is sponsored by Talksport Bet Get £40 in FREE BETS at http://talksportbet.com/utc when you bet £10 18+ gambleaware.org T&Cs apply

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for December 23, 2025 is: bespoke • bih-SPOHK • adjective Bespoke describes something that is custom-made—that is, made to fit the needs or requirements of a particular person. // As a tailor, Lana specialized in crafting bespoke clothing for her clients, each piece unique and suited to their tastes. See the entry > Examples: “The vehicles are bespoke machines with every little detail thought of, from embroidered seats to custom floor mats to retro paint jobs.” — Charlie Berrey, SlashGear.com, 10 Nov. 2025 Did you know? In the English language of yore, the verb bespeak had various meanings, including “to speak,” “to accuse,” and “to complain.” In the 16th century, bespeak acquired another meaning: “to order.” It is from that sense that we get the adjective bespoke, referring to clothes and other things that are ordered before they are made. Bespoke has enjoyed a spike in usage in recent years, perhaps due to consumer trends that champion all things artisanal over those that are prefab.

To wrap the year, my client Navattic invited nine of their marketing advisors (including me!) for an open panel on what's working and what's worn out from 2025, and where we're placing big bets for 2026. ~300 ppl registered.A few highlights - Worn out: Being a part of every over-saturated channel. AI hype. Talking about how SEO traffic is “collapsing.” Instead, focus on channels where you are the only one (like self-hosted events), thoughtfully using AI tools instead of from pressure, and recognizing that traffic is no longer the best way to measure trust.What we're keeping for 2026:Pipeline acceleration campaigns (instead of just acquisition).Customer marketing as a strategic growth strategy.Bespoke events that attendees want to post photos of on social.Subscribe to Building With Buyers on Apple or Spotify or wherever you like to listen, message me what you're listening to, and don't forget to leave a review if you're lovin' the show.Music by my talented daughter.Anna on LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠linkedin.com/in/annafurmanov⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠furmanovmarketing.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠One Insight

Sticking to a nutrition plan can be hard enough with day-to-day life, let alone while overseas adventuring and enjoying yourself.The truth is, this is a major stressor for some people as they feel it's the enemy to their goals they are working on: especially in fat loss you see this belief.However, reality is a lot more nuanced and adjusting your mindset to look at things more healthily is something I am really passionate about and teach all my clients.You do not need to let the uncertainty of travel nutrition stress you out! In this episode, I talk about my recent trip to Japan and how i navigated the nutrition situation and more specifically, insights and perspectives I gained on eating while travelling that may help you in your own adventures. DISCLAIMER: The information in this video is for guidance only and is not individualized advice for you!

Creative director and choreographer Bhavini Jagpal, founder of Bespoke the Company believes that movement should be for anyone and everyone. We deep dive into her early days as the eldest of three sisters, her experience training and performing with dance companies in London since the age of 16, and the gaps she noticed in the industry that she has made it her mission to fill through her company, Bespoke. We talk about the pressures around looking and dressing a certain way when you are performing, but also when training. We also discuss the nature of collaborative working in a dance team as well as creating a family atmosphere where people feel safe for their voice and opinion to be heard, where everyone is treated equally.Something that comes up near the end is this concept of a dance 'avatar' which really hit home.

In part one this week, she talks to Lola and Meagan about propaganda, disinformation vs. misinformation, and how social media algorithms push us all into highly individualized, “bespoke” realities.They discuss how she became interested in this topic after social media algorithms started suggesting anti-vaxxer content to her, how rage bait and other emotionally charged material spreads faster, and why social media makes it seem like other people have more extreme views than the majority of them actually do.SOURCES Invisible Rulers: The People Who Turn Lies Into RealitySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“Hated or adored but never ignored” rings especially true in this week's episode as Lyle Taylor steps onto the stage. Charlton fans have long held strong opinions about his departure, and now Lyle sets the record straight, finally sharing his reasons for parting ways with the Addicks.

After leaving Charlton, Lyle made the move to Nottingham Forest, where he crossed paths with everyone's favourite football club owner, Mr. Marinakis.

In the hot seat this week is Martyn Waghorn. Waghorn was a young pro at Sunderland during the time Browny was making waves on and off the pitch. Despite ‘looking after' Waghorn, Browny did forget to tip him for cleaning his boots so there is a score to settle right off the bat here. With a path into the first team blocked Waghorn dropped down to Leicester following a successful loan spell and got his first taste of first team football under Sven Goran Erikkson. When Rangers came knocking it was impossible not to jump at the move even though they were playing in Scottish Championship at the time, witnessing a true juxtaposition of playing at Ibrox to teams who rented out their local pitches after matches. Returning to England Waghorn got to play under footballing legends Frank Lampard and Wayne Rooney and encounter a serious array of young footballers coming through including the likes of Viktor Gyökeres, Mason Mount & Fikayo Tomori.

Today, we are standing in the wings of the theater, looking out at the empty stage, asking ourselves a question about the ghosts that haunt the floorboards. We are talking about the "Original Cast Recording" and how that static document, that moment frozen in time, can become a trap for every artist who follows. We are looking specifically at Wicked, a show that has not only defined a generation of theatergoers but has arguably altered the way we think about the "rightness" of a role versus the "reality" of the performer. Let us look first at the pen of the creator. Stephen Schwartz, the legendary composer, has spoken openly about crafting the score of Wicked specifically for Idina Menzel. He wasn't just writing for a green witch; he was writing for Idina. He heard the unique architecture of her larynx, that specific, stratospheric "belt" that sits somewhere between a scream and a prayer, and he built the song "Defying Gravity" to live exactly in that pocket.

We're back! Kicking things off in what must be series-god-only-knows-what is Jermaine Beckford and what a guy he is. From starting out as an RAC driver, we were once incorrectly informed that Beckford went full Bonnie Blue with a mattress in the back, but he's finally put those rumours to rest. After getting his dream move to Leeds, Beckford has plenty of tales: Christmas phone calls with Ken Bates, some bizarre coaching from Kevin Blackwell, and coaches who were somehow better than the players.
