This episode pulls back the curtain on the most powerful breakthroughs from our recent Effortless Sales workshop in Glasgow—and trust us, photographers walked out seeing their work (and their clients) in a completely new way.Steve, Ronan, and Jonathan break down the jaw-dropping moments that helped photographers realize why clients aren't buying the photos they think matter…and what actually makes clients fall deeply in love with their images. From the emotional “why” behind every purchase to the overlooked details that turn a simple photo into a must-have piece of art, this conversation reveals the shifts that lead to consistent high-value sales without ever pushing or persuading.If you've ever wondered why some images resonate instantly—and others fall flat—this episode is your roadmap to photographing for clients, not for judges, peers, or your own artistic ego. And it might just be the mindset reset your business has been missing.Key HighlightsThe #1 workshop moment that blew everyone's mind: why clients don't fall in love with photos… they fall in love with what those photos mean.The “describe the photo” exercise that revealed why most photographers unknowingly present images clients can't emotionally connect with.Why clients reject a photo at first glance—but then choose it as their favorite once it's emotionally interpreted.The shocking truth about variety: photographers think it's outfit and backdrop changes… clients think it's emotional storytelling and meaning.How photographing for clients (not awards, judges, or the industry) unlocks effortless, pressure-free sales.Real examples from the workshop showing how most photographers accidentally create shoots with only 2–3 sellable images—without realizing it.The difference between a “photographer's photographer” and a Difference Maker—and why one of them will be wiped out by AI.Why understanding a client's deeper “why” and their unspoken emotional desires leads to consistent 4- and 5-figure orders.The moment attendees realized how much they needed to unlearn—and how quickly their sales potential expanded once they did.How photographing the subtle, meaningful elements (a squeeze, a glance, a gesture) can turn a simple portrait into a priceless memory worth thousands.Join the Difference Maker Revolution!Take the first step toward creating a photography business that makes a difference.

When 27-year-old Lynda Spence vanished from the streets of Glasgow in 2011, few could have imagined the horror that lay behind her disappearance. Lynda was a skilled con artist, weaving a web of lies and deceit that eventually caught up with her in the most brutal way imaginable. What followed was a story of greed, vengeance, and unimaginable cruelty — a crime so disturbing it would haunt Scotland for years to come.

Joshi returns to Jimmy's Jobs to explain why legacy outlets are struggling, how AI will flood the internet with personalised content, and why local, narrative-led journalism might be the future of British media. He breaks down The Mill's rapid expansion into cities like London, Birmingham and Glasgow, the realities of investigative reporting, and the pressures of running a modern newsroom. We also discuss the rise of “community media”, the mistakes legacy players keep making, how AI can act as a founder's secret weapon, and why the future of journalism might look more human - not less.

In this episode of Let's Talk Rare, we looked back at P4A's recent trip to Glasgow, where our colleagues, Sam Morrison & Iro Malekou were on the ground for ISPOR activities leading up to ISPOR 2025. They weren't just observing—they were actively contributing, presenting a poster abstract, connecting with experts, and taking the pulse of what's shaping the HEOR and rare disease landscape.We reflected on their experiences: the conversations that stood out, the insights gained from engaging with stakeholders, and the early signals about where health economics is heading in 2025. From lively discussions in the exhibition hall to the themes emerging in scientific sessions, our colleagues returned with a clear sense of the momentum—and the challenges—facing rare disease access.This episode highlights their key takeaways: what we learned from presenting our work, how the community reacted, and what the atmosphere in Glasgow suggested about the priorities and pressures that will influence ISPOR 2025.Whether you attended, followed from afar, or simply want an insider's view of what's happening in HEOR and rare disease, this recap brings you right into the room.

Send us a textEver wondered why people in Glasgow ask different questions than people in London about the same service? We pull back the curtain on a major update: city-level People Also Ask targeting that lets you research real local queries and build content that matches each neighbourhood's language, concerns, and intent. It's a simple shift with powerful results—clearer clusters, tighter FAQs, and topical authority that feels grounded in place rather than padded with generic terms.We also share what's changing behind the scenes. A refreshed interface is on the way to speed up research and reduce friction, and we've been investing heavily in entity-led workflows. Entities help search engines connect your content to real-world concepts—people, places, organisations, products—so your pages hold up through algorithm changes. Combine entities with city-level question data and you get a reliable map for content planning: fewer overlaps, sharper internal links, and pages that speak to actual user intent.Finally, we're making a counterintuitive move: pausing our three-episodes-a-week cadence over December to run a live experiment. Our library is heavily evergreen and binge-friendly, so this is a clean moment to test whether a short break affects discovery, downloads, and listener habits. If you manage content calendars, this will resonate—sometimes the best optimisation is stepping back to measure what the audience does when you publish less.If local SEO, link building strategy, and entity-first content are on your roadmap, this update will help you plan smarter for the new year. Listen now, explore the new city-level PAA targeting, and tell us which city you want us to test next. If you find value here, follow the show, share it with a colleague, and leave a quick review so others can discover it too.SEO Is Not That Hard is hosted by Edd Dawson and brought to you by KeywordsPeopleUse.com Help feed the algorithm and leave a review at ratethispodcast.com/seo You can get your free copy of my 101 Quick SEO Tips at: https://seotips.edddawson.com/101-quick-seo-tipsTo get a personal no-obligation demo of how KeywordsPeopleUse could help you boost your SEO and get a 7 day FREE trial of our Standard Plan book a demo with me nowSee Edd's personal site at edddawson.comAsk me a question and get on the show Click here to record a questionFind Edd on Linkedin, Bluesky & TwitterFind KeywordsPeopleUse on Twitter @kwds_ppl_use"Werq" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

In this episode of Explaining History, we sit down with author Maggie Ritchie to discuss her latest novel, White Raven. We explore the remarkable true story of Moira Beattie, a Glasgow art student recruited into the heart of Bletchley Park at just 18 years old. Maggie reveals how a chance encounter with the elderly artist unveiled a secret life of wartime codebreaking and a romance with a Russian intelligence officer.We also move beyond 1945 to shine a light on a forgotten chapter of British intelligence: the Joint Services School for Linguists (JSSL) at Crail, Scotland. Discover the "Bletchley of the Cold War," where National Service conscripts were trained in Russian to fight an ideological war, and explore the complex motivations that led some Britons to become agents for the Soviet Union.Key Topics:The Hidden Bletchley: Life, class, and romance in the codebreaking huts.Moira Beattie: The artist who broke German ciphers.JSSL Crail: The secret language school on the Scottish coast.Cold War Moral Ambiguity: Why patriots turned spy in the 1950s.Books Mentioned:White Raven by Maggie Ritchie (Scotland Street Press)For the full article and transcript visit the Explaining History website hereExplaining History helps you understand the 20th Century through critical conversations and expert interviews.

Henri Lefebvre is a writer who has had many competing claims for ownership, from sociology to philosophy to urban geography, different scholars have attempted to grasp the nature of his thought. These competing attempts have been encouraged by Lefebvre's rejection of systematicity in his thought and his eclectic, discursive writing style. In his book Henri Lefebvre, Metaphilosophy and Modernity (Routledge, 2025) Patrick Gamsby provides a new, interdisciplinary way of viewing Lefebvre's work through the category of ‘metaphilosophy'. This, the term Lefebvre used to categorise his own perspective, emphasises the link between thought and action and therefore encourages us to foreground Lefebvre's critique of alienation. The role of alienation as the ‘blockage of the possible' also leads Gamsby to emphasis the utopian nature of Lefebvre's thought as one directed to what could be. In our conversation we discuss how Gamsby came to this topic through his previous explorations of Lefebvre's sociology of boredom, the importance of happiness for Lefebvre, the problems of technology and why Lefebvre saw great hopes in a new romanticism. We also discuss why we should be wary of packets of sweetener encouraging us to be happy. Your host, Matt Dawson is Professor of Sociology at the University of Glasgow and the author of G.D.H.

Welcome to a very special episode of Scran. This week Rosalind was invited to 10 Downing Street to partake in a celebration of Scottish food and drink in advance of St Andrew's day. Following the event Rosalind sat down with the Prime Minister Keir Starmer to learn more about why he has brought back celebrating Scotland's national saint's day to Downing St, more about his favourite Scottish food and drinks as well as his thoughts on challenges being faced by both the fishing and whisky industries. But first you'll hear some opening remarks from Satty Singh, owner of Mr Singh's Indian Restaurant in Glasgow who travelled to London to speak at the event and escort his team to provide their now-famous, tandoori salmon tikka for the event - a favourite of the Prime Minister's. Rosalind chats to Satty a little more later in the podcast to hear about the business and how it's evolved. Rosalind also caught a quick word with Scran-alumni and Scottish fashion designer Siobhan Mackenzie who also attended the event. You'll hear music throughout this episode from Lussa, a Glasgow based traditional band who entertained guests at the event. Happy St.Andrew's Day! Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by legendary producer Steve Lillywhite — the Grammy-winning studio mastermind behind iconic records by U2, The Rolling Stones, Talking Heads, The Smiths, The Killers, Peter Gabriel, and many more. Steve talks about the release of a brand-new 4-track EP featuring a completely unreleased live version of "Fairytale of New York" — recorded at Glasgow Barrowlands in December 1987. This historic performance captures the first time The Pogues ever played the song live, and the first time Kirsty MacColl performed it onstage with the band. The EP is released on 12 December. Recorded by Steve himself — producer of the original version and then-husband of Kirsty MacColl — the Barrowlands tape offers a rare window into the early live life of what has become the UK's favourite Christmas song for over a decade. Originally charting at No. 2 in 1987, "Fairytale of New York" has returned to the UK Top 20 every year since 2005. Steve reflects on the making of the classic track, the energy of that unforgettable night in Glasgow, and key moments from across his remarkable career. Listen to Steve Lillywhite discuss the new EP, the legacy of Fairytale of New York, and the stories behind his legendary productions — exclusively on the XS Noize Podcast.

It's finally happened. The stars aligned and we managed to get Ashy and his old sparring partner Manu Tuilagi in the same room to talk about that infamous moment at Welford Road 14 years ago. Chris helps us finally get to the bottom of what sparked it, and we quiz Manu on life in France and his return to fitness. Is the former England centre seriously considering a switch to Samoa for the next World Cup? We do get round to previewing the new Champions Cup season with Saracens legend Jamie George, Glasgow's Rory Darge and World Cup winning Springbok Deon Fourie.
