In this episode of the St Emlyn's Podcast, Iain Beardsell speaks with Anna Dobbie, consultant in emergency medicine and pre-hospital care, and Clinical Lead for London HEMS. Recorded at Trauma 2030 at the Royal College of Surgeons in London, the conversation explores what it means to lead exceptional teams in one of the most high-pressure areas of emergency medicine. Anna reflects on six years as Clinical Lead for London HEMS, sharing lessons on leadership, culture, psychological safety, difficult conversations, managing strong personalities, and supporting clinicians to do their best work. The discussion also touches on the unique nature of pre-hospital care, where teams move rapidly between downtime and high-intensity clinical decision-making, and where trust, openness and mutual respect are essential. Anna describes the importance of making sure all voices are heard, not just the loudest, and explains why leaders need to be consistent, approachable and willing to have honest conversations when things do not go as well as they should. Anna also reflects on learning leadership on the job, the value of formal leadership training, the challenge of maintaining boundaries when you care deeply about a service, and the relationship between London's Air Ambulance and its supporting charity. Finally, Iain and Anna look ahead to the future of trauma care and pre-hospital medicine, including research, ECMO, marginal gains, quality improvement, and the continuing ambition to reduce preventable deaths from trauma.

In this second episode on Daniel, Nate Shannon and Ian Duguid turn to the book's apocalyptic visions, exploring how they reshape our understanding of history, suffering, and God's ultimate purposes. Far from offering speculative timelines, Daniel's visions reveal a world marked by escalating opposition to God's people, yet firmly under the sovereign rule of the Ancient of Days. In the midst of confusion, fear, and unanswered questions, the message is clear: the kingdom belongs to the Son of Man, and faithfulness, however costly, will not be in vain.

In the first instalment of a two part discussion host Iain Ballantyne talks to returning guest Lee Pilgrim about the State of the Royal Navy and its decline over the past 20-30 years.Topics they tackle in this initial helping include: the shortage of Type 23 frigates and Type 45 destroyers; Britain's enduring dependency on the sea; seablindness that sees governments good at lawfare but poor at wielding military, and especially naval, power; the habit of reacting to events that need a naval/military response, rather than forward planning to handle them; whether or not the hybrid navy concept will be the RN's saviour. Does it run the risk of focusing on autonomous systems that are years away from being full-fledged capabilities while the current fleet perishes?They discuss how the UK needs to focus on the now, not the tomorrow when it comes to defence. Also commented on is the long-awaited Defence Investment Plan (DIP). It is seemingly another example of a government dodging hard decisions in boosting defence and kicking the can down the road.Iain and Lee also discuss the disease of defence short-termism and the UK taking capability holidays and expecting allies to fill in gaps torn in sovereign defence - something those allies may not always be willing to do.*For more on navies and their activities worldwide, get the magazine!

In this episode of the Westminster Podcast, Nate Shannon and Ian Duguid unpack the Book of Daniel, moving beyond familiar stories to uncover its deeper theological and pastoral message. Together, they explore how Daniel's structure, apocalyptic imagery, and historical context equip God's people to endure suffering with confidence in His sovereign rule over every kingdom. Far from abstract prophecy, Daniel presses a decisive question: will we trust the passing power of earthly kingdoms, or the everlasting kingdom God alone establishes?

This week on The Liverpool Comedy ImprovCast, Iain trials a brand new format: Desert Island Improv, putting friends of the show Dave and Ebe firmly in the spotlight. In this episode, the pair are asked to imagine themselves stranded on a very specific kind of desert island, where survival depends entirely on improv. Each guest chooses the improv skill or format they couldn't live without, the improv person they'd want alongside them, and a key improv memory they'd take with them into exile. Along the way there's plenty of chat about their journeys in improv and the people and influences that have shaped them. Naturally, there's also time for a bit of appreciation for the fundamentals, including the ever-essential Yes And, and how it shows up in their work and thinking. A warm, funny and reflective chat with two brilliant improvisers, and a reminder that even on a desert island, someone is probably still trying to justify a completely unearned character choice. So sit back, relax and enjoy our first visit to Desert Island Improv.

What happens when workplace culture stops being a program and starts becoming a pattern of connection? Nikki sits down with Dr. Iain Smith, Head of Behavioral Science at Sunny, to unpack why connection is not just a nice-to-have at work, but the foundation for meaningful, sustainable performance. Together, they explore why culture is better understood through behavior, rhythms, and relationships than through buzzwords alone. Dr. Smith shares fresh insights on digital overload, team vibrancy, Gen Z loneliness at work, and why leaders need to stop relying on more tools and start designing better ways for people to connect, contribute, and thrive. From rituals and team energy to the realities of hybrid work, this conversation is a powerful reminder that when connection comes first, culture follows. If you care about people-first leadership and building workplaces that actually work for humans, this one will stay with you.   Additional Resources: Connect with Iain on LinkedIn Learn more about Sunny Watch Gut + Science (and more) on YouTube!

Connection is designed through rhythms and rituals. Digital overload weakens depth, not communication frequency. Team energy is everyone's shared responsibility. Young leaders need support, practice, and real connection.

In April 1834, a massive fire broke out at the mansion of Delphine LaLaurie on Royal Street in New Orleans French Quarter. LaLaurie was known to have kept several slaves as servants in the home, but when bystanders attempted to enter the house to rescue those trapped inside, they found the doors barred. After forcing the doors open and making their way inside the house, the rescuers were horrified to find the “horribly mutilated” bodies of at least seven of LaLaurie's slaves. Delphine LaLaurie was known to treat her servants very badly, including physically abusing them, but no one in New Orleans had imagined she was a sadistic murderer. After the discovery of the horrors in the LaLaurie mansion, Delphine LaLaurie fled New Orleans, fearing mob violence, and lived the rest of her life as an exile in Paris—but that is not the end of the story. Just a few decades after LaLaurie abandoned her home and fled the country, her story and those of the men, women, and children who suffered in her home worked their way into New Orleans folklore. Today, nearly two hundred years later, the LaLaurie mansion has become known as the most haunted house in New Orleans, and the legend of Delphine LaLaurie has lived on through television, film, and books about Mad Madame LaLaurie.  Buy Tickets to our LIVE SHOW at Radio City Music Hall on June 27th!
