Podcasts about Hopkinson

This week on Go To Food Podcast, we sit down with restaurateur, landlord and former head chef of the legendary Bibendum, Jamie Younger. Fresh from the opening of The Victory on Lordship Lane, Jamie takes us inside the challenge of reimagining one of South London's most beloved neighbourhood institutions, Franklin's. From preserving its character while creating a new identity, to navigating the pressure of opening a major new venue in East Dulwich, Jamie shares the realities of taking on a local icon.We also explore the remarkable journey that took Jamie from a family-run restaurant in Cornwall to some of London's most celebrated kitchens. He reflects on his formative years under Simon Hopkinson at Bibendum, the lessons that shaped his approach to cooking, and why great ingredients and simplicity remain at the heart of everything he does. Along the way, we hear stories from The Wolseley, The Palmerston, and the highs and lows of building a career in hospitality.No conversation with Jamie would be complete without discussing The Begging Bowl. Long before Thai food became one of London's most exciting dining scenes, Jamie and chef Jane Alty were championing authentic regional Thai cooking in Peckham. He explains how his travels through Thailand inspired the restaurant, why he wanted to challenge the clichés of British Thai dining, and how The Begging Bowl became one of South London's most influential restaurants.Watch and Subscribe To Our Youtube Videos Here - https://www.youtube.com/@gotofoodGet 2 Months of Blinq For Free - With Code - GOTOBLINQ - https://blinqme.com/Order The Greatest Meat In The Country From HG Walter Here & Have Restaurant Quality Meals From Home - www.hgwalter.com Hosted on Acast.

Yarn of the Year 2025 winner and a bloke with an incredibly dry wit that we love, Lukey Hopkinson joins us for a yarn.We first crack into the yarn itself that won Luke the chance to come on the show and how he ended up blowing the ass end out of a toilet with makeshift shotgun shells out of soap, then follow into a bit of background about his family and the jobs he has done over the years before we find out that the bloke is an absolute killer on the dance floor and does plenty for the ballroom community in his local town. The guest questions produce some ripper answers and we were even able to help Luke out with a gift from the legends at SP Tools as he begins his fitting apprenticeship. This one was a great laidback yarn with a deadset legend and we appreciated Luke coming up for the day. Enjoy legends!Got a yarn for Talkback?

Today we're joined by the wonderful Henry Harris fresh back from Sri Lanka — complete with tales of dog bites, hoppers, sambals and chicken curry for breakfast — Henry arrives in glorious form, reflecting on the journey that took him from the dining room floor to becoming one of the most admired chefs in Britain. From his early days around his father's restaurant Le Grand Gésier in Brighton to falling in love with hospitality over long lunches and simple French food, this episode is packed with the stories that shaped him.Henry looks back on the pivotal people and places that defined his career: the magic of Karl Lauderer at Manley's, the terrifying but transformative start to his cooking life, and the years spent learning under the legendary Simon Hopkinson at Hilaire and Bibendum. He recalls topping and tailing endless French beans in silence, watching great classical cooking up close, and later finding himself surrounded by an extraordinary generation of chefs who would go on to shape British food culture. There are wonderful glimpses of old restaurant London here — a time of Bobendum lunches, roast chicken revelations, and a generation of cooks learning that true greatness often lies in doing the classics absolutely right.At the heart of the episode is the story of Bouchon Racine: how a failed pub project, a false start in Farringdon, and one overlooked pub near the station eventually became the home of one of London's most beloved dining rooms. Henry speaks beautifully about building the restaurant with Dave Strauss, doing the maths on a spreadsheet, keeping expectations modest, and discovering that what they had created was somehow outperforming even their most hopeful plans. He shares the philosophy behind the blackboard menu, the joy of cooking the food people actually want to eat, and the pleasure of running a restaurant full of character rather than polish — a place with good bones, brown carpet, old mirrors, cycling prints and the unmistakable feeling that you are in safe hands.The conversation wanders delightfully through stories of Racine, restaurant politics, pub culture, set lunches, offal, tartare, tongue sandwiches, and the dishes Henry believes never go out of style. He talks with disarming honesty about business partners, missed opportunities, Michelin disappointment, and the changing face of London, but always comes back to the same idea: restaurants should restore people. Warm, generous and full of hard-won wisdom, this is a portrait of a chef at the happiest point of his life — still cooking, still caring, and still finding enormous meaning in feeding people well.Pre Order Ben's Incredible Book - All You Can Eat - By Clicking Here - https://www.amazon.co.uk/All-You-Can-Eat-British/dp/1805221523Get 2 Months of Blinq For Free - With Code - GOTOBLINQ - https://blinqme.com/Order The Greatest Meat In The Country From HG Walter Here & Have Restaurant Quality Meals From Home - www.hgwalter.com Hosted on Acast.

In this second episode with Tom Hopkinson, Head of Coffee and Customer Success at ROEST, we continue our conversation about roasting, technology, and the development of modern sample roasters. If you haven't listened to Part 1 yet, we recommend starting there to get the full story of Tom's background and the origins of our collaboration with ROEST.   In Part 2, we dive deeper into how roasting practices have evolved, the challenges and possibilities of automation, and the way ROEST approaches innovation in both hardware and software. Tom shares his perspective on where roasting technology is heading, what roasters still misunderstand, and how better tools can lead to better coffee.   Tune in if you are interested in roasting, sample roasters, and the future of coffee technology.   Learn more about ROEST on their website here: https://www.roestcoffee.com/   Music by my uncle Jens Wendelboe.

In this first of two episodes, I sit down with Tom Hopkinson, Head of Coffee and Customer Success at ROEST, and dive deep in to coffee roasting. Tom found his way into coffee by opening a café with no experience at all. The café lasted less than a year, but his fascination for coffee only grew. He went on to work at Prufrock, where he learned the fundamentals of coffee, before moving to Dublin to focus on roasting. Later, he continued his journey in Berlin, working with The Barn and Five Elephant, and writing courses and educational content for Barista Hustle. Two years ago, Tom decided to settle down and moved to Norway to join ROEST. My collaboration with ROEST began about 12 years ago, when one of the founders, Sverre, presented his master thesis to me and Morten Wennersgaard (of Nordic Approach.) Sverre's goal was to develop a 1 kg home roaster, but both Morten and I did not see a commercial need for a roaster like that. At the time, we were both frustrated with the limitations of the traditional sample roasters in the market and wanted to contribute to the development of something better. We therefore recommended Sverre to develop a modern sample roaster. Some years later the p100 sample roaster was launched in the market and it has been a huge success ever since. In this episode, Tom and I talk about how the ROEST sample roasters have evolved from those early prototypes to what they are today. We discuss the technological improvements, the shift from manual to more automated processes, and how these innovations have made consistency in roasting more achievable than ever before. Tom also shares his perspective on what sets ROEST apart from other sample roasters and how the company has helped influence the wider roasting industry. Tune in if you are interested in roasting, roaster technology, and the thinking behind one of the most influential sample roasters in today's coffee world. This is Part 1 of 2, and Part 2 is coming soon. Learn more about ROEST on their website here: https://www.roestcoffee.com/ Music by my uncle Jens Wendelboe.

This episode originally aired on February 8, 2021: The power of storytelling gives us a way to cope with the uncertainty of our climate future. This week on Terra Informa we're exploring those stories about the future worlds that are not so different from our own.

In this discussion episode, Terra Informers Hannah Cunningham and Elizabeth Dowdell are joined by special guest and Terra Informa alum, Chris Chang-Yen Phillips to share why they find themselves reaching for these books, and what these genres mean to them. A reading list of the books mentioned in this episode plus some of our other favourites can be found here.Some of our favourite voices sharing visions of Indigenous futures include Cree poet and author Billy-Ray Belcourt, Cree author Larry Loyie, and Chelsea Vowel, Metis writer and host of a Terra Informa team podcast favourite, Métis in Space.In this episode, we highlight the recent lifetime achievement of speculative fiction author Nalo Hopkinson, who is the first Black woman to be honoured with the Damon Knight Grand Master Award by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA).

In our latest session, we welcomed the brilliant Max Hopkinson — co-founder of The Keynote Club and former Head of Marketing at Iceland Foods. Max shared his deeply personal and practical journey to becoming a confident public speaker, after once having a panic attack during a presentation on... breaded chicken.Here's what we covered:Max once believed public speaking “wasn't for him.” After a panic attack at work, he quit his job.But he knew becoming a better speaker would unlock career opportunities, so he committed to learning.Fast forward: he's now helping others do the same via The Keynote Club, aiming to support 1 million people.Max shared a framework to help anyone find their ideal speaking topic:Right to Speak: Do you have lived experience? Are you in the top 3-5 people in your network on the topic?Belly Energy: Do you have passion or fire in your belly for it?Audience Fit: Can you empathise with your audience? Are they genuinely interested?Attendees built a full draft of a talk using Max's 6-box framework:Start – Grab attention (no polite intros!)Intro – Set expectations and show relevanceThree Chapters – A clear structure based on story or chronologyFull Circle – Come back to your start for emotional payoffCall to Action – What should the audience do next?Timings – Allocate time to each section (and always finish early!)Everyone has a story — Max encouraged participants to uncover theirs, even if they think they're "boring."Speaking = Helping — Focus your talk on helping the audience first, not selling.Starts & Ends Matter Most — That's where attention is won (or lost).Max even drafted a template email for attendees to send, asking to speak to a real audience. Because, as he says:“The talk you'll regret most is the one you never give.”If you want to dive deeper, Max's “High Stakes Speaking” course with The Keynote Club kicks off soon – with sessions designed to help you build talks, master nerves, and grow in confidence.Huge thanks to Max, and if you found the session valuable, do drop him a follow on LinkedIn (he's just 70 shy of 10k... let's fix that).Stay tuned for our next webinar with Tracksuit's Matthew Herbert on how to measure brand marketing.

I think not and so today we're delighted to be joined by the legend himself in the studio to celebrate over 40 years of his incredible culinary creations. Jeremy is the only chef in the world to work under both Simon Hopkinson and Alistair Little, both the founding fathers of modern British cooking, and so regales us in some incredible stories and memories of his time working for both.

We hear about his magical childhood, how he got fired as a waiter and forced into the kitchen instead, the machoism of the kitchens in the 80s, the magic of Bibendum and the birth of the London restaurant scene, the accidental invention of his smoked eel sandwich, his love for Soho's great institutions, the struggles of the current food scene and oh so much more!

Standing out as a content writer when you offer the same services as every other content writer is hard. We're talking blog posts, case studies, white papers... But if you're willing to go beyond the expected and find deeper problems your clients have, you can carve out a very different kind of business. For the 414th episode of The Copywriter Club Podcast, I spoke with content strategist Sarah Hopkinson about how she found a problem that she can solve and be the only content mixologist doing what she does. If you're a content writer who wants to solve bigger problems than writing blog posts for SEO, you're going to like this one. Click the play button below, or scroll down for a full transcript.   Stuff to check out: The Pocket Guide Sarah Created for us Ry Schwartz Podcast Episode Everybody Writes by Anne Handley Sarah's website The Copywriter Club Facebook Group The Copywriter Underground   Full Transcript: Rob Marsh:  A lot of content writers focus on serving clients who have obvious content needs. They know they need blog posts for SEO or case studies for a sales funnel. They're solving problems that their clients know they have. And while there are plenty of opportunituies for copywriters in this space, there is a ton of competition too. Because a lot of writers, especially writers who are just starting out, will gravitate to these obvious problems and the clients who know they need these assets. But there are deeper content needs that are a bit less obvious. And they can be a rich opportunity for the smart copywriters who can unlock them. Let me give you an example… there are hundreds of podcaster and video channel owners with months or even years of episodes full of great ideas and insights. But most podcast listeners don't have the time to listen to every episode in order to get those insights. Take this podcast for example, if you were to listen to every episode, it would take you twelve weeks if you listened 8 hours a day to hear everything we've shared. But what if an enterprising content writer could unlock those insights so listeners didn't have to put in the time, but could get the ideas in a lead magnet or PDF resource for a client. Now that's a non-obvious content opportunity that a lot of clients have but almost no copywriters offer. Hi, I'm Rob Marsh, and on today's episode of The Copywriter Club Podcast, I'm speaking with content strategist and podcast content mixologist Sarah Hopkinson. Sarah has created a business that does exactly that—uncovers the best lost and hidden content that podcasters have in their archives, then helps her clients find new uses for those assets. Sarah has staked out a unique position in a niche with a ton of potential clients that almost no one else is serving. And I asked her how and why she did it. Stay tuned to here what she had to say… Before we jump in with Sarah… On this episode we'll talk about the kind of lead magnets and other content that Sarah creates for her clients. We actually asked Sarah to go through some of our older episodes to find the very best ideas that our guests shared about finding clients. If you'd like to see what she discovered, simply visit thecopywriterclub.com/pocket. If you go to that url, you'll be able to download a report that shares the ideas that Sarah uncovered on those older podcasts—ideas that still work today. Any way, check it out at thecopywriterclub.com/pocket And now, let's go to our interview with Sarah… Sarah, welcome to The Copywriter Club Podcast. Tell us, how did you become a copywriter and a podcast content strategist? Sarah Hopkinson: Hey Rob, it is great to be here and I'm so excited to talk to you. I got into copywriting through like many copywriters, a slightly long journey. I did a degree in French and linguistics, which really set me up for life in France, and I decided that that was my goal to move from Britain to France, so I did that.

He also invented High Speed Sintering (HSS), also known as Selective Absorption Fusion (SAF), and successfully commercialized this technology.

As you say yourself, your episodes are really binge-able and I've been enjoying listening to them, especially your Taylor Swift/podcasting mash-up ep (oh my god, I'd LOVE it if she did her own podcast!!). There are a lot of voices in podcasting and podcasting advice, but yours is one of the most insightful and fun.I am emailing you for a reason: I know that 2024 is your year of email so I was wondering if you'd be open to me guesting on The Lazy Girl's Guide to Podcasting to talk a little about the opportunities for podcasters who master email marketing? I also work in the podcasting industry, helping podcasters to grow their show and their influence through strategically remarketing their content. Last year, I gave a seminar to a group of podcasters about how to run a great email list for their podcast with less effort, touching on why email is a great medium to connect with subscribers, how to use AI to repurpose podcast episodes whilst maintaining content quality and the different kinds of emails to send to your podcast list. It was a great success and it encouraged those podcasters to start or keep going with their email list without putting as much work into it.I'd love to discuss all or some of the above on your podcast and if you'd like to have me as a guest, I'd be delighted to promote your episode far and wide. However, I appreciate that you know your audience best so I'll leave it up to you to think about :)Hope that the sun is shining on you in Jersey and that the Taylor Swift n*des scandal didn't leave a Blank Space in your episode download numbers!Have a great day!~Sarah at CopyHop~ Sarah's email series: https://crafty-hustler-1231.ck.page/9cd9d402eaGuest bio:Sarah Hopkinson is a Brit living in the south of France.
