Checkout today's episode where I touch on the rapidly evolving work culture and the concept of a remote workspace. The freedom to work outside of a traditional office setting presents unique opportunities to personalize our work environment for optimum productivity and satisfaction. As we adapt to this shift, creating a space that not only meets our professional needs but also contributes to our overall well-being is essential.The power of plants in a workspace goes beyond mere aesthetics. Research indicates that the presence of greenery can improve air quality by filtering out common pollutants, thus enhancing cognitive function and reducing stress levels. The psychological benefits of plants, backed by studies such as the one from Cardiff University School of Psychology, suggest a significant increase in work output, potentially up to 15%. Incorporating plants into a home office setup not only creates a more pleasant working environment but also has tangible effects on performance.Click here remoteworklife.io to subscribe to my free newsletter SOCIALS ___________Subscribe On YouTubeConnect on LinkedIn

Microplastics; tiny pieces of plastic usually less than 5mm in length, are a growing concern in the food industry. They come from a variety of sources, and the more research that is done, the more it seems they are making their way into every corner of the globe. Microplastics have been found in our oceans, our farmland, and our woodlands. They are not only polluting the environment, they are also finding their way into our food. One study estimates that the average person consumes roughly five grams of plastic per week, that is about the weight of a credit card. So, in this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, we ask: How worried should we be, for the planet's health and our own? And how on earth do we go about eradicating something so tiny, yet so omnipresent? Guests Jeanette Rotchell, Professor of Aquatic Toxicology, University of Hull James Lofty, PhD Research Student, Cardiff University School of Engineering

For two decades, Rockstar Games have been making games that interrogate and represent the idea of America, past and present. Commercially successful, fan-beloved, and a frequent source of media attention, Rockstar's franchises are positioned as not only game-changing, ground-breaking interventions in the games industry, but also as critical, cultural histories on America and its excesses. In an interview with acquisitions editor Rabea Rittgerodt, Dr. Esther Wright, author of the newly published book “Rockstar Games and American History. Promotional Materials and the Construction of Authenticity”, talked about historical authenticity in video games, what makes “Red Dead Redemption” and “L.A. Noire” great examples to show subjective versions of history, and what researching video games in academia as a woman is like. Esther Wright is a Lecturer in Digital History at Cardiff University (School of History, Archaeology and Religion), and formerly an Early Career Fellow at the University of Warwick's Institute of Advanced Study (IAS). She is also a co-convenor of the Historical Games Network, which aims to bring together academics, game makers and other cultural workers to explore the relationship between history and games of all kinds.
