Waarom zoeken we het eigenlijk op? De blaren, de hoogtemeters, de eindeloze kilometers over ruige paden en steile beklimmingen. In aflevering 66 duiken we in die wonderlijke aantrekkingskracht van afzien.Vijf mannen blikken terug op hun ervaringen tijdens de prachtige, maar genadeloos zware Snowdonia Ultra Trail in Wales — een tocht dwars door een ruig, bergachtig landschap, onder een stralende hemel. Een race die niet alleen het lichaam testte, maar ook het hoofd en het hart.Want ergens onderweg — als je benen schreeuwen en je hoofd stil wordt — ligt iets wat moeilijk te vangen is in woorden: schoonheid. In het afzien vinden we helderheid, verbinding, trots… en soms gewoon pure koppigheid.We praten over wat lijden op de trails ons brengt, waarom we er steeds naar terugkeren, en hoe die diepe dalen soms verrassend veel uitzicht geven.Een ode aan de pijn, met liefde gebracht.ShownotesSnowdonia Ultratrail- https://snowdonia.utmb.world/Snowdonia National park- https://eryri.gov.wales/Brewdog punk ipa- https://brewdog.com/products/punk-ipaLoopleip playlist- https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0fZxnirLQYfs8jHT7RDgFj?si=gndBNsR1TtSUeR6JnRdlow&pi=0T0WNfHlRM268vriend van de show- https://vriendvandeshow.nl/loopleipSupport the show

This week Nick talks to Iain BaillieIain began his career at Strauss Turnbull and Co and has been involved in UK and European Capital Markets for over 35 years as a trader of both equities and corporate bonds, culminating in heading European credit trading as a Managing Director of Salomon Brothers. Iain was also a founding director of LBDP, a successful agency broker in European credit. From 2003 to 2007 Iain was CEO of MarketAxess Europe, the leading platform for electronic execution in the credit market. He was responsible for all facets of the company's European business and during his tenure MarketAxess saw a ten-fold increase in activity across the platform. Before founding Asset Match, Iain was Head of Fixed Income at Christopher Street Capital.Nick and Iain discuss Iain's journey from an unexpected start in finance to building a platform that brings liquidity to shares in UK private companies. After developing an early fascination with the stock pages of the Financial Times, he began his career at Strauss Turnbull in 1972. He later joined Salomon Brothers, working in both London and New York, with John Meriwether & Michael Lewis, during the firm's heyday in fixed income trading. Following this, he founded and sold a credit market boutique before returning to Salomon, and eventually moved into electronic trading by leading the European arm of MarketAxess.In 2012, Iain co-founded Asset Match in response to the growing number of private UK companies with multiple shareholders but no exit opportunities. The platform uses scheduled auctions—rather than continuous trading—to match buyers and sellers fairly, with early clients including BrewDog and Tottenham Hotspur. Iain also discusses the growing momentum behind the PISCES initiative, a Treasury and FCA-led framework set to legitimise and expand private share trading. With more companies staying private for longer and institutional interest rising, he sees significant growth ahead for the sector.Iain's book choices where:Liar's Poker by Michael Lewishttps://www.worldofbooks.com/en-gb/products/liar-s-poker-book-michael-lewis-9780340839966Prisoners of Geography by Tim Marshallhttps://www.worldofbooks.com/en-gb/products/why-nations-fail-book-daron-acemoglu-9781846684302Why Nations Fail by Daron Acemogluhttps://www.worldofbooks.com/en-gb/products/why-nations-fail-book-daron-acemoglu-9781846684302Iain music choice was:Liquidator by Harry J.

Beyond beer, Watt passionately discusses the UK's economic challenges, his new ventures, and the unconventional leadership approaches that helped him build a unicorn business. James Watt REVEALS: Why he gave 20% of his equity to BrewDog employees & created a pay cap BrewDog's growth strategy Being on the edge of financial ruin for over years, including not being able to pay himself Why after 17.5 years as CEO, he stepped away to pursue new ventures How he manages his productivity through extreme focus Why community building is essential for business success Why millionaires are leaving the UK BEST MOMENTS "For me, if we weren't teetering on the edge of financial oblivion, I wasn't working every single penny of cash that I had hard enough because I had to open new markets. I had to try and find a way to employ new salespeople. I had to find a way to open new locations." "Would or could another beer company sponsor a sports team? Yes. Okay. We're not gonna do that. Would or could another beer company spend 200,000 pounds taking out these adverts? Yes. We're not gonna do that." "At a certain point in time, your company is gonna do things that are so stupid you'd never thought you'd be associated with such incompetence. But to make matters worse, if you're CEO, it's all your fault." "These are the job traders, the wealth traders, the people who pay a disproportionate percentage of taxes; twice as many millionaires are leaving the UK than at any point in time. And it's not just a millionaire, it's like their future innovation."

Whether you're building a challenger brand or looking to level up your strategy, this one's packed with takeaways.Your HostsLottie Unwin founded Up World, Brand Hackers, and Up Talent with a simple goal: helping startups grow.

This week, Joe and Tom sit down with Anna and Nev, the sibling duo behind the UK's oldest family-run caff. It's been serving up lasagnas, fry-ups and strong cups of tea for 125 years — long enough to witness changing food trends, a few fights behind the counter, and some very questionable breakfast orders. They spill the beans on famous customers, proper portions, and why calling it a “café” is just plain wrong. Oh, and Madonna might have had their bread and butter pudding.

This week we are joined by a very special guest. A man so famous in the Bristol and Bath area after being a guest on our show, that we almost had to pay him a fee. It's the people's champion, a TPD legend... Josh the Chimney Sweep is back! We're in Bristol, and he's here for a catch up, some bonkers hypothetical questions, and to tell us what cultural things he's been up to.

Our guest this week is Danny Robins, ghost hunter and host of Uncanny. He spends his life speaking to people who swear they've seen ghosts—but does he actually believe in them? We talk poltergeists, the fear of death, and whether being a ghost would be a bit… rubbish. Plus, Joe considers whether he's ever moved objects with internal turbulence (after a curry, maybe).

Welcome to Things People Brew part two, where today we are recording in an actual lab! Our guest is Fraser, a beer scientist who is here to blow our minds with all the clever stuff that goes into beer making. We talk about fermentation, flavour deterioration, and lots of other big words that Joe doesn't understand. They also learn about robotic arms, and noses that operate on artificial intelligence.

Welcome Things People Brew, where this week it's all about brewing beer (see what we did there?). Today, we have left our usual studio to go and meet the Willy Wonka of beer making at his set up in Waterloo. His name is AJ, and he's here to tell us everything we;'ve ever wanted to ask about beer, and to share some of his weird and wonderful concoctions, featuring pineapple, glitter and sometimes crickets (as in Jimmeny!). We learn a lot about yeast, hops, and Joe gets pretty tipsy again. Enjoy! This episode is proudly sponsored by BrewDog Punk IPA.

We are in Bristol for another Things People Did, and our guest this week is comedian and Tik Tok sensation, Abi Clarke. Abi has had quite the journey, from work experience at a hairdressers (where they basically kept her in a cupboard), to making it on the big screen as an extra in Poldark, where she mostly just flirted with 'the hottest man alive' whilst dressed in a horrendous wig. She also invented something called 'dog of the week' and she teaches Joe how to improv as a welsh chimney sweep. It's a wild ride. We love Abi - go see her on tour!

This week, Glesga Da gets down to business slagging off his favourite TV show The Apprentice. Stu reveals he was very nearly on the show and how he was pipped to the post by a woman who sells baby clothes to Madonna. Also on the order of business; should we all have a stake in Dragons Den, the Motherwell Multi-Millionaire and what's the deal with Brew Dog ex-chief James Watt? Tune in or you're fired! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The new Trump administration has continued its assault on the norms of political activity by appeasing Putin and Russia over the war in Ukraine.Representatives of the USA and Russia are meeting in Saudi Arabia but there's no place for Zelensky. Meanwhile the USA has made a bid to "buy" Ukraine's rare earth minerals.What does this tell you about Trump's foreign policy? is there any more to it than an admiration for so called strong men and a desire to extend economic colonialism?Meanwhile Vice President JD Vance in a speech in Munich lambasted the European liberal democracies claiming that they were in retreat from their most fundamental values, and that this ,not China or Russia, was the true threat to Europe.This was echoed by Kemi Badenoch, hard on the heels of the mutually shameful exchange on Palestinian refugees at PMQs with Starmer, in a another speech given at the ARC -Alliance for Responsible Citizenship- conference in London. She clearly played the anti-immigration culture wars card. Not to be left out UK Health Secretary Wes Streeting was quick to concur with Richard Madeley on Good Morning Britain that immigration was a key factor in pressures on the NHS. Are we seeing the ground that the next UK General Election being fought on laid out in front of us as both Labour and the Tories seek to see off Reform?Streeting has mad no secret of his intention to expand private involvement in the English health system this while privatised Thames water staggers from crisis to financial crisis.Brewdog's James Watt has announced his intention to start up a "Shadow UK DOGE" mimicking Musk's cost cutting regime in the USA. How practical are Watt's ideas? Has he completely misread the reality behind the rhetoric in the States?We also discuss David Tennant's BAFTA kilted singing exploits plus the other usual other meanderings.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUr8QyTCph8The Brewdog forest and Parkswatch https://parkswatchscotland.co.uk/2024/02/14/brewdogs-lost-forest-at-kinrara-lost-trees-lost-carbon-and-lost-finances/ ★ Support this podcast ★

Come on in, Demi Vollering! The Dutch superstar came within an agonising four seconds of retaining her TDFF crown this summer, but she'll return to the race in 2025 as the hot favourite on her new team, FDJ-Suez. Demi joined us from training camp and was open and honest about her tumultuous 2024, the crash that defined last year's Tour, and her plans for the future. It's fair to say, G and Tom were big fans. Meanwhile G's been battling hard against a bout of illness in Australia, but remains in good spirits. To be fair, who wouldn't be spending January in Adelaide. It's the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race next up for him. Who else would you like to hear from on the GTCC? Let us know by emailing gtcc@crowdnetwork.co.uk.

Happy Wednesday, or unhappy Wednesday, it's been a weird week. Here at the EIC newsroom, we will fill you in - welcome to Everything In Conversation.This week on the extra episode, we discuss BrewDog founder James Watt's approach to work/life balance... which is to not have one. He came under fire after he shared a video of him and his fiancé, Georgia Toffolo, where he says, ‘so I just think the whole concept of work life balance was invented by people who hate the work that they do', to which Georgia replies ‘it's so true'. After he received a huge amount of backlash, including unacceptable threats of violence, as well as lots of more balanced takes, Watt asked on LinkedIn, “What does it say about our society that a post extolling the virtues of hard work gets met with this kind of furious backlash?” calling it a “bizarre controversy”. He said: “As a nation, we love to joke about the French being lazy, but the reality is that our output per hour is 13 per cent lower than theirs." James Watt is worth an estimated 262 million pounds at present, and has also previously been accused of presiding over a “toxic” culture. Beth, Ruchira and Oenone rummage around in the mess, and with help from the listeners, try to answer the question, is The UK workforce, work-shy? https://www.heraldscotland.com/opinion/24851034.roz-foyer-james-watt-spouting-nonsense-work-life-balance/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/food-and-drink/features/has-brewdogs-toxic-culture-pierced-craft-beer-balloon/#:~:text=A%20staple%20on%20supermarket%20shelves,out%2C%20afraid%20and%20miserable%E2%80%9D.https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/01/14/uk-is-among-most-work-shy-nations-claims-brewdog-founder/https://inews.co.uk/news/house-prices-young-people-nothing-to-work-for-3457041#:~:text=NEWSLETTER%20(%C2%A3)%20Work%20no%20longer,a%20home%20of%20their%20own.&text=This%20is%20Home%20Front%20with,newsletter%20from%20The%20i%20Paper%20.

One of England's greatest-ever wingers Anthony Watson joins Ben Youngs and Dan Cole to announce his retirement from rugby. A five Test capped British & Irish Lion who made pivotal contributions in the series against New Zealand in 2017 and South Africa in 2021, Ant retires having won 56 England caps scoring 23 tries, leaving him 8th on the all-time top try scoring list. Ant will be joining For The Love Of Rugby throughout the Men's Six Nations to provide the best analysis of rugby's greatest championship.
Dan Cole joins Ben Youngs to react to the news of his omission from Steve Borthwick's England Rugby squad for the 2025 Men's Six Nations. The pair analyse the reasons behind Maro Itoje replacing Jamie George as captain, why Ben Spencer can feel hard done by, and what we can expect from an exciting new crop of players including Tom Willis, Caden Murley and Oscar Beard.

G's still living it up in the heat of Adelaide ahead of the Tour Down Under, while Tom and Producer George continue to do battle with the elements in Greater Manchester. It's alright for some, isn't it? As a legend of the cobbles, today's guest was no stranger to the cold and rain during his career either - albeit his biggest ever win came in the summer Olympic heat on the Copacabana beach. Yes, that's right - today we welcome Greg van Avermaet to the GTCC! GVA is one of those riders that we feel like must have been on before - but has somehow never made it to the GTCC, until now. He chatted to the guys about that incredible Gold medal ride, his remarkable run of success in 2017, his gravel exploits today and so much more. We are also very excited to confirm that our ROUVY rides are back for 2025 - and will take place each and every Wednesday at 18:30 UK time.

Olivia Ferdi is obsessed with the details. The co-founder of Trip, a U.K.-based brand of lightly sparkling functional beverages intended to help people relax, Olivia says that a passion for the particulars is a key reason why Trip is the fastest-growing soft drink brand in the U.K. and currently preparing for a major expansion of its retail presence in the American market. Trip debuted in 2019 and markets two product lines: one infused with CBD and adaptogens and the other, called Mindful Blend, is made with Lion's Mane, ashwagandha, L-theanine and magnesium. The brand is sold in over 30,000 points of distribution across Europe and the U.S and its Mindful Blend line will be available nationally at three yet-to-be-announced retail chains beginning in the first quarter of 2025. In this episode, Olivia discusses how Trip's philosophy of “product obsession” helped gave the company a fast start and keeps it building towards a more promising future. She also explains why “the customer is sacrosanct,” how the company is applying lessons from success in e-commerce to its brick and mortar business and why humility is key to its U.S. expansion. Show notes: 0:35: Olivia Ferdi, Co-Founder, Trip – Olivia and Taste Radio editor Ray Latif chat about the industry meetup hosted the evening prior to their conversation, before the entrepreneur talks about Trip's sponsorship of a Dua Lipa surprise concert in London later in the day. She also discusses Trip's partnership with the Calm app, why she and Daniel never intended to build Trip as a U.K. brand, and how their personal experience with CBD became a “blind passion” to create a brand as a way to give people access to the ingredient. Olivia also explains how Trip's “customer first” strategy has set it apart, how its well-crafted label design allowed the company to avoid using paid media early on, how she's attempting to avoid pitfalls in the U.S. and the one word that can help Trip become a household name.

We reflect on how awareness of our expressions can impact team morale and communication.
