 The Three Old Hacks look at the relationship between Nigel Farage and the Conservative Party. We are seeing a reshaping of the right in British politics, says Mihir. Nigel Farage is out to destroy the Conservative Party in his mission to become prime minister.He is making a tactical shift towards the centre, says David Smith, to take over the Conservatives' ground. While Tory Party members may be drifting towards Reform, that "is not easy for Tory MPs to contemplate", says David Smith. He thinks the Tories have repeated the mistake they made when they elected William Hague in 1997, in electing a leader who is too young to lead the party (he was then 26). Kemi Badenoch is 44, but is "not", says David, "a very good parliamentary performer."Mihir is prepared to put money on Farage becoming prime minister one day, but Nigel Dudley thinks the Tory Party will survive its current difficulties and will not be ousted by Reform as the rightful home of right-leaning voters.Turning to consider Rachel Reeves' performance as Chancellor and the measures she outlined in the Spring Budget, "it has been many decades since we have had an economist in the job of Chancellor," says David, "and she definitely is an economist," whatever her political enemies may say to the contrary. Whether or not she will survive as Chancellor has more to do with the number of enemies she has made in such a short time than it does with her abilities as an economist - pensioners who have lost their winter fuel payments, parents of children in private education, farmers, and now disabled people."She expected to be swept along on a tide of goodwill," says David, but that has not been the case.Is the Labour government's lack of popularity down to the mismatch in expectations between what they can afford and what people want from an incoming Labour government? Is it down to their lack of preparedness when they took office.The Three Old Hacks compare and contrast with governments past and consider the Trump effect on the UK's relations with Europe.Former Sports editor of BBC News Mihir Bose, political analyst Nigel Dudley and Economics Editor of the Sunday Times David Smith, aka the Three Old Hacks, bring their decades of experience to bear on the most pressing political developments. Get in contact with the podcast by emailing threeoldhacks@outlook.com, we'd love to hear from you!

Here's a bit of what we talked about.Balancing Multiple InterestsOne of the key themes of this episode is the concept of balancing multiple interests without spreading oneself too thin. Mihir emphasizes the importance of focusing on one primary interest at a time, following the philosophy of "working in seasons."This approach allows for deep dives into specific areas, such as business or YouTube, ensuring that each passion receives the attention it deserves.Slow Productivity: A Game ChangerInspired by Cal Newport's concept of slow productivity, we talk about deep work and focus compared to hopping all over the place. Mihir discusses the significance of maintaining that focus while being productive. But this can also be really tough for creative minds. Mihir has a great solution for boredom.He shares his strategy of working in seasons, dedicating quarters of the year to different aspects of his career. This method not only enhances productivity but also prevents burnout, a common issue among creators.Transitioning Focus: From YouTube to BusinessMihir's journey has seen a significant shift from being a full-time content creator to diving into the business world. Initially focused on YouTube for his own channels on gaming, he realized the need to expand his expertise to other areas of social media marketing.

It sounds so simple, but it really does hold people back. One of the best ways to prepare yourself for this challenge is to monetize a service. Any service that can solve a problem for someone else can be turned into an offer. That offer can be the first way you make money while your channel grows steadily.Mihir's initial foray into freelancing played a crucial role in his own career development. Starting as a video editor for creators, he quickly realized the potential of offering comprehensive channel management services.

The world has a long way to go to meet climate goals, especially airlines. There is currently no alternative to jet fuel-powered passenger planes on the horizon, which puts the focus on sustainable aviation fuel, or SAF.

Buy now pay later slowing but still disrupting Rising card delinquency rates, particularly among lower income consumers, are one of several pieces of data that have led some to take a negative view of the US consumer. But Mihir suggests delinquency rates have started to decline recently and discusses why that's been the case. Ultimately, employment is a key driver for consumer credit and we'd be more concerned if the outlook for jobs deteriorated more rapidly. "Buy Now/Pay Later" or BNPL has enjoyed rapid growth in recent years, particularly among younger consumers, but a combination of higher rates and a weaker consumer has stalled growth. Mihir believes that BNPL is most challenging for the traditional private label card issuer market (e.g. department store cards), and will continue to gain market share. Mihir also discusses the mortgage insurance sector which has less credit risk than in the past given today's higher underwriting standards and because of the equity that many homeowners now have, owing to home price appreciation.   You may also enjoy listening to the Merrill Perspectives podcast, featuring conversations on the big stories, news and trends affecting your everyday financial life.   "Bank of America" and “BofA Securities” are the marketing names for the global banking businesses and global markets businesses (which includes BofA Global Research) of Bank of America Corporation.

Felix, Mihir and Jill Avery consider the merits of personal branding and how to think about the value of a brand. Why do people want to consider their personal brand?  And, why do we still struggle to understand the value of brands given all the data we swim in? 

In this week's episode, Felix, Mihir and Bloomberg's Sarah Green Carmichael discuss the writers' strike in Hollywood. Why do we suddenly see a strike during “the golden era of television” and amidst intensifying streaming wars? What are the thorniest issues? How do they speak to challenges for knowledge workers more generally? Plus, why you should love meetings. (We are not kidding!)

Felix, Mihir and Charlotte Howard discuss the recent earnings season with a spotlight on ExxonMobil, Chevron, Autozone, Apple, UPS, Microsoft and PDD – and what it all means for the economy.

Felix, Mihir and their colleague Kathleen McGinn discuss the role of gratitude at work and at home. Gratitude can be incredibly effective, so why don't we thank others more often? What goes wrong when a thank you seems shallow and inauthentic? Can gratitude even be an impediment to change? Plus, we debate early retirement. Clearly, it is what people want. Why don't we give it to them?

Felix and Mihir discuss the state of Netflix and streaming, the co-CEO model, and Incredible India.

In this episode, Felix and Mihir debate with their colleague Deborah Spar, Senior Associate Dean for Business and Global Society at Harvard Business School, the role of government in regulating AI. How do we make sure we get the best out this groundbreaking technology? Should we keep government out of the way, at least for the time being? Is industry self-regulation sufficient to prevent the worst? Are we contending with an existential threat? Plus, we discuss the vanishing division between our professional and our private lives. Is it mostly a boon?

Felix and Mihir discuss the durability of a book retailer's turnaround, the durability of that revival, the future of commercial real estate and whether all the doomsaying is correct.

Felix, Mihir and Christina Wallace consider the SVB business model, what its loss means for entrepreneurial finance and what they make of new models of philanthropy. 

In this episode, Felix, Mihir and Semafor's Liz Hoffman debate the backlash against woke CEOs. Did America's corporate leaders go too far when they embraced broad social and political goals? Does corporate activism ultimately undermine political action? What's the cost of cutting business ties with corporations that are deemed too woke? Plus, we ask Liz Hoffman about her new book, Crash Landing: The Inside Story of How the World's Biggest Companies Survived an Economy on the Brink.
