Claude Achaume has been working as the private rooms manager for the exclusive 5 Hertford Street Private Club in London for several years and in this podcast, he shares his experiences and some interesting anecdotes that have made headlines!  Claude describes how his years at the iconic Connaught Hotel in London shaped his sense of hospitality and taught him the importance of discretion and tactfulness.   While working at the Connaught, Claude met actors, royalty, celebrities and politicians and he describes some of his most memorable moments.  He tells our listeners why the Connaught was unique and highly appreciated by its guests.   After the Connaught, Claude moved on to the London Ritz where he continued his Food and Beverage career there until 1991.  It was Mr. Julian Payne, the former manager at the London Ritz and a much-appreciated mentor, who introduced Claude to the London private club scene and gave him the opportunity to start working for them. Claude shares his hospitality acumen, his values and why he hasn't considered retirement as of yet.  As a Frenchman living in England for many years, Claude tells us why he appreciates London and why he decided to come back from France after working eight years at the Château de la Pioline in Aix en Provence.  Claude also tells us why it's no longer easy to find experienced and dedicated staff and how he has seen the hospitality field struggle, change and evolve. We also ask Claude to share his ideas on how the private club niche is just one of the many places young people can aspire to work and what skills are needed for this kind of employment. Finally, Claude talks about how 5 Hertford Street Private Club welcomed guests as part of the Coronation of Charles celebration in May of this year.  Understanding royal protocol is just one of the many reasons  why Claude is a very popular, admired and treasured hospitality expert.    

Christmas may be looming but the news just keeps on coming! In this festive video special edition of Energy Voice Out Loud Ryan discusses CCS permits, Erikka tackles North Sea shenanigans and Mat chats about Bernard Looney's return to energy.  The week saw the NSTA grant a UK first CCS permit that will allow the infastructure to be installed at the East Coast Cluster. This came about as the Northern Endurance Partnership made a final investment decision on the Tack 1 winning carbon storage development.  Erikka had one hell of a morning rounding up Serica's acquisition of Parkmead assets, “serious misconduct”'s farm down of its Earlham and Orwell developments and Connaught selling out of UK gas field to Reabold. One thing's for certain, the UK North Sea is going to be a much different beast in 2025.  Finally, Mat has been looking into former BP CEO Bernard Looney's return to energy as he was appointed to the board of board of ADNOC subsidiary XRG. Looney left BP amid scandal involving personal relationships with with colleagues and misleading the company's board but is set to make a return following his appointment to a tech firm earlier in the year.

Well, I've know Agostino since he was a fresh-faced young buck at Montgomery Place, one of London's best cocktail bars back in the day. I remember when he moved to take the reins at the Connaught when it reopened, and the dream opening duo that was him and Erik Lorincz. In the sixteen years since, Ago built a core around him with stunning professionals like Maura Milia and Giorgio Bargiani, presented at every bar show in the world and won every single accolade, too, as well as personally creating The Connaught Bar Gin. Phaidon recently brought out The Connaught Bar book, only their second-ever beverage title, and I was in London, so it was high time to sit down with an old friend and shoot the breeze. Naturally, Ago being Ago, we started only after some very good lunch and a wee tasting of a few things.

On this episode of the Collective Whisper podcast, Simon K has the pleasure of speaking with Fergus Farrell, Fergus Farrell, is a former rugby player, self-employed businessman, and a true testament to the power of perseverance. Fergus represented Connacht at multiple levels in rugby and left a lasting impact on the province's rugby community. However, his life took an unexpected turn in 2018 when he suffered a traumatic spinal injury that left him without the use of his legs and feet.But Fergus refused to let this define him. With unwavering determination, he underwent surgery and embarked on a journey of recovery that would defy all odds. Through sheer willpower and the support of his loved ones, Fergus regained movement in his toes and went on to accomplish something truly extraordinary.In a remarkable display of strength, Fergus completed a 206-kilometer walk from his injury site in Athenry, Galway, to the National Rehabilitation Hospital in Dún Laoghaire. This incredible feat not only symbolized his personal triumph but also raised €70,000 for the hospital that played a crucial role in his recovery.He serves as an ambassador for Darkness into light Athenry, raising awareness of mental health challenges associated with life-changing injuries.In recent times Fergus is also known for his rowing endeavors. He was medically evacuated from a rowing vessel called Cushlamachree in the Atlantic Ocean. The Singapore flagged tanker, Hafnia Shenzhen, responded to a request for assistance from the US Coast Guard and brought Fergus on board. He had to leave his rowing partner, Damian Browne, behind due to a suspected blood clot. Fergus's rowing journey aimed to set a new Guinness world record in their purpose-built Seasabre 6.2m craft, from New York to Galway.Fergus's journey is a shining example of the resilience of the human spirit and a reminder that there are no limits to what one can achieve when faced with adversity. He is not only an ambassador for Darkness into light Athenry and mental health issues but also a powerful voice for those who may be struggling to navigate the emotional and mental strains of recovery.Today, we dive deep into Fergus's story, exploring the challenges he faced, the moments of hope and despair, and the invaluable lessons he has learned along the way.Simon & Fergus speak about:What is Fergus up to at the moment?Playing Rugby for Connaught & Ireland at youth levelThe accident and life before itThe return walk to the hospitalThe next major challenge7 marathons in 7 daysLeaving New York Harbour in a little row boatThe medical situation on the boatGetting on board a chinese cargo shipLeaving Damien behindDealing with the mental disappointmentWhat next for Fergus?Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheToughestTrekInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_toughest_trek/?hl=enLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/fergus-farrell/?locale=fr_FRCollective Whisper website: https://www.collectivewhisperpodcast.com

William Butler Yeats is widely considered to be one of the greatest poets of the 20th century. He was born in Dublin. His father was a lawyer and a well-known portrait painter. Yeats was educated in London and in Dublin, but he spent his summers in the west of Ireland in the family's summer house at Connaught. The young Yeats was very much part of the fin de siècle in London; at the same time he was active in societies that attempted an Irish literary revival. His first volume of verse appeared in 1887, but in his earlier period his dramatic production outweighed his poetry both in bulk and in import. Together with Lady Gregory he founded the Irish Theatre, which was to become the Abbey Theatre, and served as its chief playwright until the movement was joined by John Synge. His plays usually treat Irish legends; they also reflect his fascination with mysticism and spiritualism. The Countess Cathleen (1892), The Land of Heart's Desire (1894), Cathleen ni Houlihan (1902), The King's Threshold (1904), and Deirdre (1907) are among the best known. After 1910, Yeats's dramatic art took a sharp turn toward a highly poetical, static, and esoteric style. His later plays were written for small audiences; they experiment with masks, dance, and music, and were profoundly influenced by the Japanese Noh plays. Although a convinced patriot, Yeats deplored the hatred and the bigotry of the Nationalist movement, and his poetry is full of moving protests against it. He was appointed to the Irish Senate in 1922. Yeats is one of the few writers whose greatest works were written after the award of the Nobel Prize. Whereas he received the Prize chiefly for his dramatic works, his significance today rests on his lyric achievement. His poetry, especially the volumes The Wild Swans at Coole (1919), Michael Robartes and the Dancer (1921), The Tower (1928), The Winding Stair and Other Poems (1933), and Last Poems and Plays (1940), made him one of the outstanding and most influential twentieth-century poets writing in English. His recurrent themes are the contrast of art and life, masks, cyclical theories of life (the symbol of the winding stairs), and the ideal of beauty and ceremony contrasting with the hubbub of modern life. Dr Selina Guinness is a lecturer in English (Irish Literature) in the Department of Humanities and Arts Management at IADT. Her memoir about farming on the fringes of the city, The Crocodile by the Door, was published in 2012 by Penguin Ireland. It was shortlisted for the UK Costa Book Awards (Biography) and nominated for Best Newcomer at the Irish Book Awards. (Source: The Nobel Foundation)

In this episode, Justine interviews Italian Chef Marco Zampese as he shares about his love of pasta as well as his earliest and fondest first memories of food, with a family tradition of the breaking down of the pig for charcuterie.Marco's background saw him grow in many restaurants, and even as a chef to the Italian professional Cycling Team but in 2012, after graduation, a chance phone call from a friend and the lure of London's dynamic restaurant scene saw him travel to the UK to work at 1 Michelin star Wild Honey in Mayfair. He intended London to be the first stop on his global travels; however, he quickly flourished and developed as a chef under Anthony Demetre's tutelage. He was promoted to Sous Chef after just six months and thrived in the fast-paced, detail-focused Michelin kitchen.Next, Marco was looking for a new challenge, and Demetre kindly suggested he consider Hélène Darroze's London restaurant. After a successful trial, he started working at Hélène's two Michelin starred restaurant ‘Hélène Darroze at The Connaught' in January 2014, joining the team. He rapidly climbed the culinary ranks, was promoted to Junior Sous Chef after just few months, then Sous Chef and became Head Chef in 2018. In 2021, Marco was Executive Chef when Hélène Darroze at The Connaught was awarded three Michelin stars in the Michelin Guide Great Britain and Ireland.Marco has been working 9 years alongside Hélène, mainly in London at The Connaught but also supporting Hélène on new openings like Hélène Darroze at Hotel Maria Cristina in San Sebastian (Spain) on 2017 where he was the Head chef for a 5 months pop up restaurant, on the reopening in 2019 of her main restaurant in Paris, Marsan awarded 2 Michelin stars in 2021, on the openings of her new restaurant Hélène Darroze a Villa la Coste in Provence in 2021 awarded 1 Michelin star, and supporting her in many other projects around the world.You can follow Marco below to stay tuned and stay inspired with all he has going on aheadWebsite: https://www.the-connaught.co.uk/restaurants-bars/helene-darroze-at-the-connaught/Instagram: @marcozampese88 and @helenedarrozeattheconnaught Thank you for listening.

This week on Passport to Everywhere, Melissa Biggs Bradley explores the iconic Claridge's hotel in London, often called the "annex of Buckingham Palace." Since opening its doors in 1854, Claridge's has welcomed dozens of beloved royals, foreign dignitaries, and Hollywood stars, earning a reputation as one of the most star-studded hotels in the world.  Melissa sits down with Claridge's archivist Kate Hudson and lead butler Michael Lynch, who have intimate knowledge of the hotel's rich history and its legendary guests. From the French Empress Eugenie entertaining Queen Victoria to Hollywood Golden Age actors like Cary Grant, Audrey Hepburn, Yul Brynner, and Spencer Tracy, who famously said he'd rather go to Claridge's than heaven when he dies. Claridge's has undergone numerous renovations over its 169-year history, most recently a first-of-its-kind renovation from 2016 to 2021, chronicled in the BBC documentary series, The Mayfair Hotel Megabuild. Despite the extensive renovation, Claridge's miraculously stayed open throughout the entire process, a testament to their commitment to providing high-quality luxury service. Today, Claridge's is part of the Maybourne Hotel Group, which runs two of Melissa's other favorite hotels in London as well: The Berkeley and The Connaught.  Leading up to King Charles' coronation, Andrew Jackson, Director of Historic Royal Palaces and the Governor of the Tower of London, joins Melissa to share his insights on how to best enjoy the royal palaces in the U.K. and what to expect from the lavish coronation ceremony.
