In this podcast, 14 x World Champion Cyclist, Neil Fachie MBE and presenter John Mellis ask high achievers about their best habits and behaviours in an effort to build a tool box allowing everyone the chance to prosper at an elite level.In Episode 4, following on from a guest who's one of John's mates - radio and TV presenter, panto star and actor, Grant Stott - someone from Neil's friend list - Daniel PriestleyDan is an entrepreneur, best-selling author and international speaker. He's also co founder of Dent, which runs a 9-month growth accelerator programme for small enterprises, working with over 500+ entrepreneurs each year to develop their businesses. Dent has offices in the UK, USA, Singapore and Australia. In this episode, Dan tells us about his earliest entrepreneurial adventures, through University, when he dropped out after realising he was more successful in business than anybody teaching him, and how he relocated to the UK 15 years ago from his native Australia and had to start all over again from scratch. Crucially, he explains the moment in life which changed his view of the world so completely and fundamentally, it's totally altered his approach to work ever since.
Approaching Excellence, Every Conversation. Is there such a thing as destiny? Is your future pre-ordained?Is it possible to be born a high-achiever, guaranteed to succeed? In this podcast, 14 x World Champion Cyclist, Neil Fachie MBE and presenter John Mellis ask high achievers exactly that and about their best habits and behaviours in an effort to build a tool box allowing everyone the chance to prosper at an elite level.In Episode 3, as Neil makes final preparations to represent Great Britain once more, going for cycling gold at the Paralympic Games in Tokyo, here on the podcast (recorded earlier in the Summer), we're meeting out third guest - and after one of the world's foremost multi instrumentalists, we move onto someone who spends a large chunk of his life also playing music, but not his own, (and usually it's on vinyl).Grant Stott is a radio and television presenter, Panto turn and actor, which was actually his big dream all along. He talks about the importance of knock-backs and refusing to accept them, working for the police before chasing his dream, and how, despite any real kind of planning, one job led to the next until finally he reached the acting world he'd wanted to be a part of all along. Grant tells us about the people who've been the greatest influences upon him throughout his career, including his long time pal, Andy Gray, before his passing earlier this year. And we talk about how, in the case of the Edinburgh Panto....the show must go on.

In the latest of our guest specials, John B is joined by celebrity Hibs fan Grant Stott. The conversation starts by how the two arranged the podcast, which was when fellow actor Colin McCredie retweeted a pre-France '98 STV screenplay "The Game" starring the late Andy Gray, which was based around three friends watching the 1978 World Cup. Grant then talks about his current role hosting The Afternoon Show on BBC Radio Scotland and how much he enjoys that role. We go back in time to delve into Grant's rise to fame from Go45 and See You, See Me through Wemyss Bay 902101 to Fully Booked, plus his stints hosting Children In Need Scotland. This leads onto his Panto roles and why he loves playing the Pantomine Villain, including such interestingly named characters like Flash Boaby, Gobina McPhlegm and Hibernia Hardup. Here's hoping that Panto will be back to normal this year after Covid killed off the Christmas tradition in 2020. Grant describes his love of Hibs and how he didn't get into football until the early 90's when he decided to keep his Dad company. He discusses some of the strange times like the "Hands off Hibs" campaign through to that iconic 2016 Scottish Cup Final that ended a 114 year wait for the trophy. In addition, he gives an insight into the hospitality hosting and how it got his Dad to meet his heroes. He also became one of the last presenters of Scotsport with Andy Walker for two years in 2006, he talks about the privilege of hosting the show and the regret that STV were unable to keep it going. We round off with the usual slow fire questions, including a Celebrity Hibs 6 a side team and Best Hibs XI.

Allan Stewart is an entertainer I love to watch. I first watched him in a show in Blackpool in 1995 that was so good I went back and watch it again. Allan is a well seasoned performer and has completed contracts in many Pantomimes, Summer Seasons, Musicals, TV Variety & his own TV Shows as well as constant Cruise Ship ventures around the world, he is very respected by his peers.His story is fascinating from the age of 10 with support from his hard working and caring father to recording with George Martin at Abbey Road studios and getting the call for the Royal Variety Performance which at a time was the Holy Grail of any entertainers career.I've never worked with Allan, but have always known that he's out there and have heard nothing but great things. Enjoy his story

After dazzling us with tales of the life of the professional science communicator (both bad and good. There was definitely some bad) he sat down with our own Mark Pentler to talk some more about the art of science communication and how difficult it is in this post-truth world. Ali was born and raised in a small village on the East coast of Scotland called Edinburgh, and at 17 ran away to the bright lights of the sprawling metropolis known as Glasgow. After gaining a degree in microbiology, Ali again ran away to the life of a travelling performer, though the cruise ship rather than the more-traditional circus. His career as a science communicator began with a stint at Glasgow Science Centre and a regular freelance presenter for STV's The Hour as the face of "Weans' World of Science", working with luminaries such as Grant Stott and Michelle McManus. Perhaps his proudest moment was her eureka moment of understanding space weather and aurorae. He subsequently worked at Edinburgh International Science Festival and has recently been originating the role of Science Engagement Officer at the National Museum of Scotland, developing new programming to go alongside their exciting new Science and Technology galleries. He has an excessive fondness for cheese, tea, running and the Madeiran wall lizard. Twitter: @sir_ali_floyd Blog: Ali Floyd | National Museums Scotland Blog
With the rise of the science centre as an educational experience a new profession has arisen: the professional, full-time science communicator. Distinct from researchers who carry out engagement as part of their work and unwilling to be teachers, these people roam the Earth, dispensing wisdom and fun, often with a healthy dose of foam and fire. But, 15 years on from the Millennium projects that spawned them, what state is the industry in? Are they providing a clarity beyond more traditional academics, or have they created a whole mystic lore of their own? Join Ali Floyd, Science Engagement Officer at the National Museum of Scotland, as he explores some of the not-quite-truths he has experienced in the business.
