Podcast appearances and mentions of David Brown

Recent visitors to China's tech zone in Shenzhen have come away in awe of the country's manufacturing capabilities, including its increasingly advanced humanoid robots. And when iRobot's Chinese supplier took over the company this year, it looked like another win for Chinese tech. Christopher Mims is a tech reporter for the Wall Street Journal. He's the author of “Arriving Today: From Factory to Front Door – Why Everything Has Changed About How and What We Buy.” He joins David to discuss robots, AI and what he calls “the new space race.”Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Business Wars ad-free right now.

It's 2017 and the Roomba rules the robotic vacuum market. But cheaper competitors from China, some of whom offer more features for less money, start eating away at its lead. iRobot's CEO Colin Angle fights back with lawsuits and a bet on premium pricing. But the competition keeps finding ways around him, and as a pandemic-fueled sales boom fades, iRobot's finances start to crumble. Can a lifeline from Amazon pull the Roomba to safety or is the pioneer of home robots, about to get sucked up by the competition?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's 1984 and MIT professor Rodney Brooks has a radical idea: robots don't need complicated brains to navigate the world — they just need simple rules. Brooks and two of his students, Colin Angle and Helen Greiner, turn that idea into a company called iRobot. The company chases government contracts and builds robotic dolls. But in 2002, iRobot breaks through with the Roomba — a vacuuming robot. The Roomba bumps into chair legs, takes cats for joyrides, and propels iRobot to a blockbuster IPO. But the Roomba is headed for trouble.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

David Brown and Paul Murrell examine how road-user charging could reshape Australian transport, including congestion, fairness and where the revenue goes. They consider curbside EV charging as public infrastructure, AI-powered robots in car dealerships and Mahindra's aggressive SUV discounts. Listener feedback covers Tesla ownership, battery health, low maintenance costs and Full Self-Driving, while concerns are raised about how employers recruit engineers. The program finishes with a road test of the new Toyota HiLux, including its design, equipment and increasingly rare manual gearbox. Episode Breakdown • Road-user charging - 00:01:34 • Curbside EV charging - 00:13:23 • Robots in car showrooms - 00:19:34 • Mahindra price cuts - 00:27:02 • Tesla ownership feedback - 00:38:08 • Engineering and transport planning - 00:44:30 • Toyota HiLux road test - 00:46:38 Full summary Road-user charging Australia moves towards road-user charging. David and Paul explore congestion pricing, dynamic charges, equity, public transport and why transparency over revenue will be critical. Curbside EV charging A UNSW paper argues curbside EV charging should be treated as critical infrastructure. The discussion covers apartment dwellers, grid demand, public kerb space and private investment. Robots in car showrooms Humanoid robots and AI could answer vehicle questions and guide buyers, but privacy, sales manipulation and stereotyping remain concerns. David questions whether a simple interactive screen would work better. Mahindra price cuts Mahindra cuts up to $10,000 from the XUV700, sharpening its value proposition. The hosts consider intense SUV competition and the risks that major discounts pose to resale values and brand confidence. Tesla ownership feedback A US Model Y owner reports remarkably low maintenance costs, regular software updates and strong battery health after four years, while praising Tesla's Full Self-Driving for long-distance travel. Engineering and transport planning A Transport for NSW recruitment ad prompts discussion about employers demanding experienced staff who can perform immediately, while apparently investing too little in developing younger engineers. Toyota HiLux road test The new HiLux retains its familiar ute character while adopting a squarer nose, updated equipment and all-terrain tyres. The test also considers the manual gearbox as that transmission becomes increasingly rare.

Overdrive: Road safety, smarter e-bikes, EV innovation and the new Toyota RAV4 David Brown and Paul Murrell explore workplace road safety, e-bike technology and changing approaches to vehicle design. They examine the Genesis GV90 luxury EV, Ferrari's extraordinary Luce charity auction, fashion-inspired cars and safety claims that don't always match delivered vehicles. They also question Tesla's flush door handles and whether innovation can compromise basic safety. Finally, David road tests the sixth-generation Toyota RAV4, finding its proven hybrid system, comfort, restrained safety alerts and generous base-model equipment compelling, despite its higher price and road noise on coarse surfaces. Episode Breakdown • Workplace road safety - 00:01:24 • Volkswagen smart e-bike - 00:09:50 • Genesis GV90 and Ferrari Luce - 00:19:51 • Fashion and purposeful design - 00:34:10 • Vehicle safety and door handles - 00:41:39 • Toyota RAV4 road test - 00:54:13 Full Summary Workplace road safety Research highlights risks from commuting, fatigue and work calls. David and Paul argue that road safety must be an organisational responsibility supported by a strong safety culture. Volkswagen smart e-bike Volkswagen's e-bike uses radar, cameras, lighting and crash detection. The discussion weighs useful rider protection against distraction and considers the wider safety challenges created by faster e-bikes. Genesis GV90 and Ferrari Luce Genesis pushes EV luxury with its GV90, focusing on safety, technology and passenger comfort. Ferrari's first Luce sells for a remarkable charity donation, linking motoring prestige with philanthropy. Fashion and purposeful design A Jimmy Choo collaboration prompts a look at fashion-inspired cars, including the Carla Zampatti Ford Laser. Mahindra's rugged heritage shows how practicality and even awkward styling can build character. Vehicle safety and door handles Incorrectly advertised safety equipment raises questions about verification and industry workloads. Tesla's flush handles highlight why clever design must still provide simple, reliable emergency access. Toyota RAV4 road test David tests the sixth-generation base RAV4, praising its hybrid efficiency, ride comfort, useful equipment and subtle driver alerts. Tall-profile tyres cushion bumps, though coarse roads expose tyre noise. The range spans six grades, from the everyday-focused base hybrid through GXL, Edge and Cruiser to XSE and the 227 kW plug-in hybrid GR Sport. David concludes the RAV4 is costly but extremely well made, refined and backed by Toyota's long experience.

Bigger vehicles and pedestrian safety lead the discussion as David Brown and Paul Murrell examine visibility, weight and road design. They explore AI-powered mapping, the shrinking technology gap between prestige and mainstream cars, Ferrari's bespoke engineering and image-driven design from Jaguar and Singer. The Mazda CX-5 road test considers whether its refined design and new technology improve a proven medium SUV. Episode Breakdown • Bigger vehicles and pedestrian safety – 00:01:18 • Smarter mapping and AI – 00:14:07 • Prestige brands under pressure – 00:25:16 • Ferrari builds a one-off – 00:33:08 • Design, image and luxury – 00:37:13 • Mazda CX-5 road test – 00:46:53 Full summary Bigger vehicles and pedestrian safety – 00:01:18 Research links larger, heavier vehicles with greater pedestrian risk. David and Paul discuss poor visibility, high bonnets, cameras, braking, vehicle loads and shared streets. Smarter mapping and AI – 00:14:07 Digital maps are evolving beyond fastest-route navigation. AI could account for trip purpose, lane restrictions, vehicle dimensions, charging, road conditions and operational needs. Prestige brands under pressure – 00:25:16 Advanced technology is spreading rapidly into cheaper cars, challenging traditional luxury brands to justify their premiums through refinement, service and a genuinely distinctive experience. Ferrari builds a one-off – 00:33:08 Ferrari's CZ26 shows how bespoke motoring can extend beyond colours and trim. A single customer commissions substantial aerodynamic, engineering and material changes around SF90 foundations. Design, image and luxury – 00:37:13 Jaguar's dramatic interior and Singer's Louis Vuitton collaboration prompt debate about design versus function, and whether luxury details add genuine value or simply advertise exclusivity. Mazda CX-5 road test – 00:46:53 The CX-5 remains refined and understated, with subtle exterior surfacing and good road manners. Its larger touchscreen and conventional 2.5-litre drivetrain raise questions about Mazda's direction.

When Warby Parker debuted in 2010, the brand disrupted not just how much eyeglasses cost, but also how customers purchased them. Its direct-to-consumer e-commerce business model left many wondering whether Luxottica's longstanding reign over the industry would soon be over. In the decade-and-a-half since, the answer to that question is still evolving. Max Chafkin profiled Warby Parker in its early days for Fast Company, and is currently a senior reporter for Bloomberg Businessweek. He joins David to discuss Warby Parker's staying power, the company's embrace of brick-and-mortar retail, and the current state of e-commerce.Check out Max's Bloomberg podcast Everybody's Business.Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Business Wars ad-free right now.

“Just Tell Me What to Do!” Helping Parents Find Their Own Way Through Parenting Dilemmas In this Grounded Reflections episode of the Parent Hope Podcast, David Brown talks with Jenny about a familiar parenting plea: “Just tell me what to do!” The conversation follows the previous episode, in which Dr Kathleen Smith interviewed Jenny about her book: The Parenting Paradox: Loving Our Children by Giving Them Space to Grow. At that event, parents' questions about what they should do prompted Jenny to reflect on our recognizable desire for clear answers when parenting gets difficult. Rather than offering quick fixes or parenting techniques, Jenny explores how parents can recognise unhelpful patterns, reconnect with their values, and focus on what is within their own control. It's a thoughtful conversation about strengthening parent agency and finding a more grounded way through challenging parenting moments. Newsletter-https://parenthopeproject.com.au/#newsletterYoutube-http://www.youtube.com/@ParentHopeProjectFacebook-https://www.facebook.com/coachingparentsInstagram-https://www.instagram.com/parenthopeproject/LinkedIn-https://www.linkedin.com/company/79093727/admin/feed/posts/Website-https://parenthopeproject.com.au/Contact us:Contact@parentproject.com.au(02) 9904 5600

David Brown and Paul Murrell examine Sydney toll reform which raises bigger questions about transport planning and contract design, and whether heavier EVs really damage roads. They consider Smart's street-art launch for its new electric two-seater, BMW turning connected dashboards into promotional space, and the growing complexity of in-car controls. The pair also tackle famously mispronounced car names and the cultures behind them, before David tests the MG HS Super Hybrid, a plug-in hybrid SUV offering substantial electric-only range and family practicality. Episode Breakdown • Sydney toll reform - 00:01:21 • Do EVs damage roads? - 00:10:19 • Smart's electric comeback - 00:17:56 • Dashboard advertising - 00:25:03 • Modern car controls - 00:33:45 • Mispronounced car names - 00:35:13 • MG HS Super Hybrid - 00:44:50 Full Summary Sydney toll reform Cheaper Sydney tolls prompt a wider discussion about motorway contracts, non-compete clauses, public transport and why sound long-term planning matters more than headline relief. Do EVs damage roads? EVs are heavier, but axle loads matter more than total vehicle weight. Heavy trucks and buses remain far greater contributors to structural pavement damage than passenger cars. Smart's electric comeback Smart promotes its coming electric two-seater through global street-art murals. The hosts question whether elaborate branding can justify premium pricing for a small urban EV. Dashboard advertising BMW's Spider-Man promotion appears on compatible infotainment screens, sparking debate over ownership, subscriptions and whether connected cars risk becoming rolling advertising platforms. Modern car controls Touchscreens and multifunction controls can make simple tasks unnecessarily difficult. David and Paul argue that useful tutorials could be a better use of connected-car displays. Mispronounced car names From Porsche and Touareg to Hyundai, Citroën and Qashqai, the hosts explore pronunciation, language and the cultural origins behind familiar automotive names. MG HS Super Hybrid David tests MG's medium plug-in hybrid SUV, noting its roughly 120 km achievable electric range, improved styling, generous cabin and cargo space, and potential as an urban family vehicle.

After a summer hiatus, David Brown returns to Angus Underground with longtime friend and repeat guest Dave Mullins for a candid conversation about the current Angus business, the cattle market, and the opportunities facing breeders today. David opens with updates from Montana Ranch before diving into his thoughts on the American Angus Association's Data Driven Herd recognition program, the importance of submitting real-world performance data, and recent changes surrounding genetic testing and AI certificate requirements. While never shy about sharing his frustrations, David's larger message remains consistent: meaningful data collection matters, particularly as genomics continue to play a larger role in cattle evaluation. From there, David and Dave turn to what they describe as an unprecedented cattle market. Despite drought conditions, market volatility, and challenges such as New World screwworm concerns, demand for quality Angus genetics remains remarkably strong. They examine why traditional “sale seasons” are becoming less relevant, with successful production and frozen genetics sales happening throughout the year. Dave explains that today's buyers are increasingly willing to invest whenever the right genetics become available—whether they're looking for embryos for an upcoming IVF cycle, a donor cow to advance their program, or genetics that fit a very specific breeding philosophy. Ultimately, the conversation centers on intentionality. David and Dave encourage breeders to determine exactly what they want their program to accomplish, reverse engineer the path to get there, and resist being distracted by industry noise or someone else's definition of success. Whether a breeder focuses on maternal cattle, performance genetics, carcass traits, show cattle, or another segment entirely, there is room within the Angus breed for different approaches. Their message to both established and young producers is simple: build a good product, communicate clearly why it matters, understand your customer, and become exceptionally good at serving your particular segment of the cattle business. Key Discussion Points The return of Angus Underground after a busy summer at Montana Ranch American Angus Association's Data Driven Herd recognition program Why real-world performance data remains important alongside genomics Genetic defect testing and AI certificate requirements Current cattle inventory and historically strong market conditions New World screwworm concerns and cattle-market volatility Record demand for registered Angus cattle and genetics Why traditional spring and fall “sale seasons” are changing Growing opportunities for year-round embryo and semen sales How IVF has changed the timing of frozen-genetics purchases The diversity of today's Angus breeders and buyers Finding the right customer instead of trying to appeal to everyone Building a breeding program around intentionality and consistency “Reverse engineering” your operation from the outcome you want Why breeders should learn from successful programs—even those with completely different philosophies Opportunities for young people looking to build careers in the cattle industry

In 2002, while on a surf trip to Bali, 26-year-old Nick Woodman has an idea for a camera mount that would allow him and his friends to capture action shots of themselves in the water.

Has our increasingly risk-averse society changed the way we see children? In this episode, David Brown chats to Jenny about this central question raised in her earlier discussion with Dr Peter Stearns Peter Stearns argues that parents have always worried about their children. What's changed is that society has become increasingly risk-averse and our understanding of harm has expanded from protecting children from physical danger to also protecting them from emotional and psychological harm. While this has brought many benefits, it has also made us more likely to see children as fragile rather than capable. How do parents find the right balance? The writings that have mostly influenced Dr Brown's works are: Anxious Parents: A History of Modern Childrearing in America; co-author of The American Child: the transformation of childhood since World War II. Anxious Parents: A History of Modern Childrearing in America;  https://www.amazon.com.au/Anxious-Parents-History-Child-Rearing-America/dp/0814798497 The American Child: the transformation of childhood since World War II   https://academic.oup.com/book/60679 And the paper: Stearns PN (2019) Happy Children: A Modern Emotional Commitment.
