Two stories from Iceland. On the first, Signy has a shot at the good life. Unfortunately, that shot involves camping out in a cave with giants, tone deaf swans, and magic flying beds. Oh, and some light kidnapping. On the second the pastorage servant just wants to kiss that dead guy and does not care who knows it. The creature is stuck between two dimensions, and they're going to take out their anger about that on you. With their club. -- Links: Not-a-pocketknife: https://myths.link/notpocketknife Store: https://shop.bardic.fm Membership: https://www.mythpodcast.com/membership -- Sponsors: Truebill: Don't fall for subscription scams!

This week it is the very very spooky* Halloween episode about a terrifying** trek through the Greek underworld. It's definitely not a lighthearted romp where a Greek god makes a podcast, trick-or-treats as Hercules, and emcees a poetry competition. Nope. Not at all.The creatures this week are bogeymen!

Coming up on this week’s episode, a comeback story for the ages: the reinvention of Burberry. The early 2000s saw this iconic British brand disintegrating as a direct consequence of, what would later emerge to be, extremely damaging strategic and operating model decisions.For a moment there, it almost seemed like the proud Burberry brand was a dead man walking. And then, American retail superstar, Angela Arendts, strode into Burberry and, as its newly anointed CEO, boldly decided that the best defense was a fabulous – opportunity driven - offense. In this week’s episode, I’ll explore how Burberry used opportunity to come back from the brink.The Risktory Podcast is created, written, produced and hosted by Jacinthe A Galpin. Jacinthe loves her Burberry trench and will wear it during the summer, it’s that nice.

In the first of a new series here on the Risktory Podcast – Masters of the Risk Universe – who better to feature than cultural icon, Madonna.When you think of risk management, you don’t automatically think of Madonna, but the Material Girl is a risk master. She was and still is an innovator. A Disruptor. A master of navigating the unknown. And she is someone who never waited for opportunity to knock: instead opting to chase and hunt in order to win.Coming up in this week’s episode of the Risktory Podcast, I’ll take you through how Madonna, from the gate, was destined to be a global superstar, not by luck or good fortune, but by being someone who – from a child - understood the risk game and always – always – played to win. The Risktory Podcast is created, written, produced and hosted by Jacinthe A Galpin. Jacinthe’s favorite Madonna song of all time is Burning Up, closely followed by Holiday.

Coming up this week, it’s the final regular episode of the Risktory Podcast for 2019. To round out the year, I will be looking at the, very curious, 1942 Battle of Los Angeles.On the evening of February 24 1942, just months after the US had entered World War II, it looked like Los Angeles was about to come under attack by the Japanese. US forces immediately mobilized to take on the threat and to defend the city… and then…. nothing happened.In this week’s episode, I will explore the concept of imagined risk. Risk that doesn’t exist but which appears real enough, and present enough, that we act. Next week, via the 1942 Battle of Los Angeles, I’ll take you through how imagined risk is triggered. How it manifests. And what we – as practitioners – can do to avoid the utterly avoidable.The Risktory Podcast is created, written, produced and hosted by Jacinthe A Galpin.

Coming up this week, the final double episode of 2019 and this is a cracking tale to round out the year. This week, I will take you through Sydney’s Razor Wars.The Sydney Australia crime scene of the 1920s was pure helter-skelter. Drugs. Prostitution. Immense and unapologetic violence. In response, the New South Wales government introduced a raft of legislative measures that it thought would tame Sydney: prohibition of drugs, prohibition of street prostitution, the closing of all pubs at six pm every night, and the criminalization of handguns.The government’s measures did nothing to stem the tide of illegal activity: if anything it emboldened Sydney’s criminals who – in true contrarian Australian fashion – doubled down. We’re gonna do the drugs. We’ll move our prostitutes off the streets and into brothels. We’ll set up speak-easies, or sly grogs, as they’re called in Australia. And if you’re gonna take our guns, we’ll use razors against our enemies. Sydney’s criminal fraternity took what was already an out of control scene, and turned it up to 11: triggering the now famous, Razor Wars.The Risktory Podcast is created, written and produced by Jacinthe A Galpin.

Coming up on this week’s episode, the life and times of the legendary British soldier, Mad Jack Churchill.Churchill didn’t invent anything. He didn’t disrupt anything. But his understanding of risk. His taking on of opportunity. His capacity to read his context, instantly understand the pros and cons, and formulate a strategy…. Mad Jack Churchill is one of the greats when it comes to taking action on the unknown. And that’s because, and I will go into this in some depth during this week’s episode, he brings to life the idea of the risk ‘everyman’. The idea that anyone can manage risk effectively. That every tool, every technique, ever method available to manage the unknown… Mad Jack illustrates that we all have the capacity to successfully entreat with the unknown.Plus, dude fought the Nazis with a sword.

Coming up this week, an episode looking at how opportunity doesn’t always just magically appear. Sometimes, opportunity can be built.Such is the case with one of my favorite places on earth: Dollywood. Dollywood was established by the legendary Dolly Parton in 1986. As you’ll find out in this week’s episode, Dolly was told by those that ought to know – accountants, lawyers, business advisors - that the idea of a family friendly theme park nestled in the Smokey Mountains of Tennessee was not a good idea. That she would lose and she would lose big.This week, I’ll take you through how Dolly Parton saw potential where others didn’t. How she turned that potential into opportunity. And how she throttled that opportunity to create – in 2019 - the number one ticketed tourist attraction in Tennessee.The Risktory Podcast is created, written and produced by Jacinthe A Galpin.

Coming up on this week’s episode, I will be looking at the Acoustic Kitty Project.

Coming up this week, it’s double episode time! Last month, I spoke at Alexei Sidorenko’s 2019 Risk Awareness Week talking about my favorite historical figure – Napoleon Bonaparte – tracking his trajectory from good to bad decision making. In this week’s double episode, I will be repurposing that presentation for the Risktory Podcast. From the time Napoleon was an exceptional risk manager to the time he wasn’t so good at managing risk. And to use Napoleon’s trajectory to illustrate what good decision making looks like versus what bad decision making looks like.If you want to see my presentation at 2019 Risk Awareness Week, and gain access to the slide deck that accompanies the presentation, then please head on over to 2019.riskawarenessweek.com.

Coming up on this week’s episode, I am going to look at the life and times of English novelist, Emily Bronte, best known for the classic tome, Wuthering Heights. Emily Bronte was a disruptor, innovating a style of writing that was unlike anything that had come before, a style of writing that would, eventually, revolutionize the writing world.But she was a quiet disruptor. An ‘easter egg’ disruptor. She wasn’t a Thomas Edison, or Ray Kurzweil or even Elon Musk, who were and are larger than life behemoths in the world of disruption. Bronte innovated from the shadows, hiding her disruption in her poetic prose and lyrical words. Comfortable being an introvert and never feeling compelled to be anything other than what she was. In this week’s episode, I’ll explore the life of the quiet disruptor, Emily Bronte, and how she came to write one of the most innovative, fascinating and revolutionary books of all time.

Coming up on this week’s episode, a story of resilience and reinvention, courtesy of IBM. In 1984, IBM was the King of the Computing world. Where other competitors, such as Apple, constructed and built each hardware component, and wrote every line of software for their computers, IBM innovated a competitive advantage where they would buy hardware components, assemble said components, and ship its computers with Microsoft Windows pre-loaded. What IBM did was innovative, clever…. and it catapulted them to the top of the IT food chain.Unfortunately for IBM, their advantage was not to last. Once competitors – such as Dell - figured out what IBM were doing, they not only copied IBM’s business model. They did it better and, very rapidly, eroded IBM’s market dominance. In 1993, IBM posted what was then corporate America’s biggest ever loss of $8 billion dollars.What did IBM do? It reinvented. Just as it had done before, but this time with a focus on building an operating model that would be truly resilient. On this week’s episode, I’ll explore the reinvention of IBM. And I’ll identify what IBM did to skirt around threat and chase opportunity to build for itself a resilient operating model that has – so far - stood the test of time.The Risktory Podcast is created, written and produced by Jacinthe A Galpin.

Coming up on this week’s episode, it’s time for a listener request. Long time listener, Joseph, has asked me to look at the Great Train Robbery of August 8 1963. Robberies and heists are great learning opportunities for risk practitioners. Not because I want you all to go out and steal, don’t get me wrong. They are great learning opportunities because they exemplify the balance needed in good risk management: the balance between defending against threat but also chasing opportunity.In this week’s episode, I’ll explore how fifteen men stole an astronomical 2.6 million pounds from a Royal Mail train travelling from Glasgow in Scotland to London, England. And how they all very nearly, got away with it.Just as an interesting historical aside. The son of gang member, Bruce Reynolds, Nick, would go on to become a musician, forming a band, Alabama 3, who penned the song ‘Woke Up This Morning’. A song that would become the opening theme song of long running drama, The Sopranos.The Risktory Podcast is created, written and produced by Jacinthe A Galpin.

If any of you have listened to the September Risktorian of the Month episode, my guest Emily Westmore, talked about how punk was, quote ‘beyond definition’ end quote, which allowed for it to be a disruptive and, with the influence of Malcolm McLaren, become an all conquering force in a world of music that had become stale and predictable.On this week’s double episode, I’ll explore the genesis of punk, the roots of its creation, and how the vision held by disruptor Malcolm McLaren molded a movement beyond definition into something truly special.The Risktory Podcast is created, written, produced and hosted by Jacinthe A Galpin.Soundtrack (sourced from www.freemusicarchive.org)Podington Bear - Elephants on ParadeAlan Spiljak – CloudsAlan Spiljak – ForgottenAlan Spiljak – Light BlueAlan Spiljak – Empty DaysAlan Spiljak – Stars AboveAlan Spiljak – Not the EndAlan Spiljak - SunBibliographyhttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/3668263/Malcolm-McLaren-Punk-it-made-my-day.htmlhttps://www.huffpost.com/entry/malcolm-mclaren-godfather_n_531595https://www.liveabout.com/timeline-of-punk-music-history-2803347 http://www.smearmagazine.com/posts/2016/9/6/a-history-of-punkhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malcolm_McLarenhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punk_subculturehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MC5https://sites.google.com/site/underappreciatedrockvocalists/home/the-pantheon/under-appreciated-items-3/jason-ankenyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York_Dollshttps://www.theguardian.com/music/2013/apr/17/rocks-backpages-ramones-new-york-1975https://www.sexpistolsofficial.com/bio/sex-pistols-timeline/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_(boutique)

Coming up on this week’s episode, I will be exploring the 1972 Munich Massacre. On September 5 1972, during the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich, West Germany, Palestinian militants, took eleven Israeli Olympic team members hostage, sparking off a crisis that ended in the death of all Israelis, 5 militants, and one German police officer.The Munich Massacre was an archetypal Black Swan in that: a) it was a surprise; b) it was a catastrophic event and c) in hindsight, it was entirely preventable.

Coming up on this week’s episode, I will be looking at the birth of Amazon, the internet juggernaut that redefined how we – as consumers – purchase in 2019. The origin story of Amazon is one of perpetual forward motion: through a mix of both incremental improvement and strategic leaps of faith. It’s truly incredible.In this week’s episode, I’ll explore how it all began in 1994, when Jeff Bezos, Amazon’s founder, ignited his ‘regret minimization framework’ and how he never, once, looked back.

Coming up today, it’s the September Risktorian of the month. One of the most common requests I have had, since starting the podcast, is to explore how every one of us can utilize risk in our day to day life.This month’s Risktorian – Emily Westmore - is someone who has changed industries, roles and functions multiple times over their career. She has taken leaps of faith, even when the future was utterly and completely uncertain. Emily is articulate, intelligent and one of the funniest people I’ve ever met… and a person who – perhaps unknowingly – is a risk management expert.The Risktory Podcast is created, written and produced by Jacinthe A Galpin.Soundtrack (sourced from www.freemusicarchive.org)Podington Bear - Elephants on Parade

Coming up on this week’s episode, I am going to look at the collapse of Ansett Airlines, an airline that was, at the time of its collapse in September 2001, Australia’s second largest carrier. 16,000 employees out of work and, on the day of the collapse itself, 47,000 passengers stranded across the country.The collapse of Ansett is what happens when external and internal threats collide in a perfect storm, setting off a maelstrom of events that forced a fundamental restructure of Australia’s aviation industry.

Coming up on this week’s episode, something a little different. We know that necessity is the mother of invention. If that’s true – and I think it is – risk is the vehicle and driver that makes invention possible. This week, I’ll explore inventions – from ancient modern to our modern times in 2019 – that amplify the role of risk management in human evolution.

Born a peasant in the Siberian wilderness, Rasputin expertly grasped opportunity to become one of, if not the, most powerful man in Russia. In this double episode, I’ll explore Rasputin’s life, how he rose to power and prominence by being in the right place at the right time, and how his life was cut short by those who feared that the master opportunist had gone one step too far and burned one bridge too many.Part 1 will be released on Monday September 9.
