Podcasts about seaniebee

David Hayes began his ad career on October 4th 1982 and now runs the media company, Wavemaker in Dublin. One of Seaniebee's oldest pals, he sits down to discuss existentialism: from the future of the creative industries; to his own (following a recent brush with prostate cancer); and, in a table-turning-judo-move, quizzes Seaniebee on how he sees his own life working out going forward. The concept of “Stop Pedaling” and “Optimistic Nihilism” are also discussed.

Secondly, there are 3.6m truckers in the US (not 300k as Seaniebee dumbly pronounced). And thirdly, the Wright brothers first flew in 1903 (not “1906 or 1909” as Seaniebee lazily guessed).

Returning to the pod for the fourth time, our resident future-thinker, Richard Watson, arrives in fine fettle to guide us through the global mayhem that confronts us all at every turn these days. Richard is a thoughtful, questioning, truth seeking, self-obsessed, neurotic, contrarian writer that, due to luck more than anything else, has ended up being labelled a futurist (NB: correct term is futurologist). Most days he manages to make a good living telling people that everything will turn out OK despite the fact he's not sure himself sometimes. He enjoys thinking about artificial intelligence and what (if anything) makes us human and especially likes drawing ‘maps' that provoke conversation and debate. When he's not doing all this, he can normally be found gardening, trying to book flights to Greece, drinking wine, arguing with his lawn mower, smoking cigars, or pulling dead mice out of his old sports car (they're cute, but they eat the wiring, especially over winter). Oh yeah, and somehow, he has managed to get five books published and blagged his way into both the Technology Foresight Practice at Imperial College London and the Judge School at Cambridge. Not bad for someone that got a ‘B' in English language O-level and failed maths twice. Go figure. Two of his best books are Digital Vs Human (2017), and Future Files (2007).

HOW TO REACT TO ROE V WADE? The Don (aka, the activist Repeal O'Neill) unpacks last week's Supreme Court reversal of Roe V Wade and offers a unique perspective on how activists in the US might respond in kind. The fun continues with a dig down into the wider fragmentation of the US and society in general, and our continued doom-loop into a kind of psychotic tribalism. But never fear, there are some fun things towards the end, including a review of glorious Toulouse, Mick Lynch, Stewart Lee and speculation on when exactly (wo)man(tran) first decided to wipe her/his/their arses.

Having come close to reigniting the Balkan conflict with their last pod, The Don & Seaniebee return to pick over the detritus that is the world today and how best one can navigate it. They discuss why world governments appear terrified of driving critical legislation to curb capitalism's global emissions: instead preferring to persist with the usual puffery that all of us have to play a part at a micro level if we are to achieve climate goals. Four sample creative macro solutions are unveiled across aviation, agriculture, telephony and energy that could begin to move the world in the right direction but will likely never be tabled until it's too late (if ever). And, if it is becoming clear that we, a species, are going to collectively fail in our climate endeavours, what are the ethics of hypocrisy surrounding eating as many burgers and flying as often as you like in the meantime? Were the "good old days" pf the 70s and 80s really any better for kids or are we destroying them today with our own narcissistic selfishness, cosseted infantilization, borderline-abusive medicalization, and un-checked digitalization? And is it finally time to just abandon the USA for the utterly broken #shitholecountry it really is, following its latest repugnant response to the latest gun massacre of terrified schoolchildren in Texas? They also talk the sudden preponderance of Doireanns; the low-down on Frankfurt; more bollocks from Ryanair, the airline that wrecks everything; were Scrabble right to ban the “N” word and why our inbuilt penchant for hatred and conflict means it's likely that we'll never fully eradicate such words designed to belittle and demean other races and nationalities.

For the penultimate show of the year, your favourite podmongers return to discuss the recent emergence of the Omicron Variant that currently has the globe in a lather. They review a new documentary – The COVID Chronicles – by former guest, Donal O'Neill and ask why so many people around the world are taken in by conspiracy theories with regards to the pandemic and the often nefarious, ulterior motives behind the people promoting them. They also ponder whether base-line stupidity is what really drives the human race; what it would be like to actually work in the Gestapo; adult breastfeeding; and why Garth Brooks is an utter gobshite (and Ed Sheeran, isn't).

May he rest in peace. ----------------------------------------------------------- Seoirse & Gerald have a pint with Seaniebee Seaniebee's father has been one of Ireland's pre-eminent ventriloquists for the past six decades. On the occasion of his 82nd birthday, Seoirse (George Boyle) joins the pod with his sidekick Gerald to share their adventure stories down the years. We discuss what it was like growing up in Dublin during the War and how his love for ventriloquism bloomed, as he made his fist dummies from papier-mâché and daub. Seoirse and Gerald represented Ireland and reached the final on The Original Gong Show with Ted Mack, and were the opening act when Ireland's TV station RTE launched in 1961. George dovetailed his ventriloquism with a successful career in engineering and shares his wisdom on the current state of the world and ideas on how we might get back on course.

What with the sentencing of the Irishmen responsible for the deaths of 39 Vietnamese immigrants; the appalling travesty of the Mother & Baby homes report; and the country's bumbling, greed-centric approach to COVID19 and vaccinations...the Don and Seaniebee ask whether there's ever been a worse time to be ashamed of being from Ireland. They also give Donald Trump a fond fare-thee-well and The Don reaches number 2 in her 'Best of' countdown. *********************** GEORGE BOYLE HAS A PINT WITH SEANIEBEE To celebrate the somewhat surprising milestone of the fiftieth episode, Seaniebee is joined on the pod today by his architect sister, George, who shares the story behind the launch of The Fumbally Exchange (a not-for-profit movement of creative and innovative professionals who share co-working spaces).

She talks openly about her battles with mental illness and her challenging, shocking and destigmatizing related artworks; her work to bring creativity and dignity to Romanian orphans; and the astonishing story of her befriending inmates on death row in Texas, which led to her attending an execution in Huntsville and a subsequent fight against the inhumanity of capital punishment. Carrie believes that creativity is what gives us our humanity and our sanity; in art as a form of therapy to deal with emotions and life-changes; the importance of empathy; and in using provocative, boundary-pushing, irreverent and often politically incorrect expressions to engender meaningful reaction, response and change. In 2017 she was appointed the first ever visual artist for Shakespeare's Birthplace Trust; and has also spent the last 21 years mosaicing the outside of her three story home in Chiswick.

The Don and Seaniebee deliver their US Election post-mortem and discuss why so many people voted for more of the same from Trump and how the trajectory "The Left" is taking right now may be doing more harm than good. The Don also continues her top 20 "best of" with technology and blockchain specialist, Ben Jones. *********************************** Ben Jones is all over the future of technology. As the founder of Bull In a China Shop, he advises brands and organizations on how best to navigate what's next. He joins the pod to explain the workings and importance of the emerging Blockchain phenomenon and how the Internet has been hijacked to the point that its founder, Tim Berners-Lee, has recently re-emerged to try and course-correct his invention.

The world is watching and it doesn't like what it is seeing. **************************** The ironic trolling group - The Temple of Satan - have come up with seven rules for living without Religious dogma. (Check out the movie, "Hail Satan") THERE ARE SEVEN FUNDAMENTAL TENETS I. One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason. II. The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions. III. One's body is inviolable, subject to one's own will alone. IV. The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own. V. Beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one's beliefs. VI. People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one's best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused. VII. Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.

As they prepare to go off the booze for a month, The Don and Seaniebee discuss addictions: from alcohol to gambling to religion before introducing number 5 on her Top 20 Countdown. *************************************** Craig Smith has a pint with Seaniebee Probably the most candid, humble, philosophical and emotional episode to date; the pod with Craig Smith is a no holds barred descent into the madness of drug and alcohol addiction, suicidal thoughts and how to emerge stronger from such darkness. From almost being a professional footballer with Sheffield United and a soldier with the British Marines, Craig tells his amazing story of growing up in the class system, getting away to see the world, rising to become one of the world's great admen, only to see it all eventually unravel before his eyes. We learn a good rule of thumb is to never die on your own doorstep; why the journey is essentially one of finding your true self; and why your life is usually never as bad as your mind might be telling you it is. Craig is a man who has thrown his many regrets into the chasm of the past and really worked hard to come out much stronger and more vital. He approached this chat with a desire to be totally open about his difficult experiences in the hope that his learnings and experience may be helpful to others going through the same thing. Today Craig runs www.smithandko.com with his wife, and this spring they welcomed their first child – Scout Hana – into the world.

In the aftermath of the death of John Hume, The Don and Seaniebee attempt to explain the history of the Northern Ireland situation and why he mattered so much to the world. And there is an amazing interview from the archives with the head of one of New York's most violent crime gangs. **************************************** Antonio Fernandez (KING TONE) has a pint with Seaniebee This is an astonishing story of redemption and by far the most controversial and polarizing guest we've had on the show so far. Antonio Fernandez, aka KING TONE, is the former leader of The Latin Kings, the largest Hispanic street gang in the US, with over 50,000 members worldwide. Growing up in a Brooklyn ghetto, he left school at the age of 9 to become a drug dealer and begin a life of violent crime that eventually led to crack addiction and him being incarcerated whilst still in his teens. In Riker's Island he joined The Latin Kings, at the time a primarily prison-based gang that eventually transferred itself out onto the streets of New York, where they quickly became one of the most vicious and feared operations in the city. Antonio recounts how he set out to transform the gang away from crime and into a political movement, fighting for social justice for all Hispanics. A disbelieving NYPD called him ‘a gangster with a PR campaign', and so began a long running feud with Mayor Rudolph Giuliani that ended with King Tone being put away for 13 years. In addition to his extraordinary story, we discuss how Donald Trump might feasibly be leading America towards another civil war, and how it is now time for all marginalized groups to come together and ACT to combat the growing divisiveness across the country.

Following his inclusion last time at number 10 in The Don's Top 20 Countdown, and due to popular demand, the futurist, Richard Watson returns to give us his take on the pandemic and how the world might change as many economies take their first tentative steps in opening up. We speculate on everything from Black Swan events like God or aliens appearing and more practical things like the BLM movement as a potential antidote to identity politics; continued erosion of privacy; curing blindness and whether it's actually even worth fretting over things anymore in this increasingly crazy world.

With all the mayhem in the world today, it's interesting to go back two years to listen to the thoughts of a futurist back then and how he saw things unfolding. In the intro, The Don and Seaniebee also discuss how one might procure a lock of Donald Trump's hair in order to make a voodoo doll...plus: the magic of Pennys; why the left is continuing to disappear up its own arse; and how the far right have been gifted Harry Potter in the latest advancement of the identity politics wars. ********************************* RICHARD WATSON HAS A PINT WITH SEANIEBEE Were there ever any ‘good old days'? World renowned futurist, Richard Watson joins the pod to parlay what's coming next for all of us: climate, loneliness, humanity, AI and, of course, Mister Trump.

With COVID19 continuing its federally down-played rampage, and two days after the horrific George Floyd murder, the wheels continue to fall off the clown car that is Donald Trump's America. Seaniebee and The Don take off the gloves to call out the relative ambivalence, inaction and lack of urgency that seems to permeate those educated Americans who appear content to continue sleep-walking their way to four more years of the current regime. There follows a pertinent interview with Cheryl Sharp, who was sounding the warning bells four years ago, prior to Trump being elected. ************************************ Attorney Cheryl Sharp - the Deputy Director of The State of Connecticut Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities – joins the podcast today to discuss all that ails America: how Donald Trump is providing permission and voice to racism; why we should retire the ‘N'-word; the debate on guns and cop-killings; why Seaniebee cannot continue to blindly hire women; and why being a civil servant doesn't necessarily have to be a dead-end job bereft of creativity. ************************************** Release date: May 30th 2020 Runtime: 71m Recorded: Dublin (Cheshire, Connecticut)

The first non-face-to-face episode ever (and boy can you tell): The Don and Seaniebee talk their new movie script - Paddy Kavanagh Ha Ha Ha - and she introduces the wonderfully wise Tadhg O'Donoghue who grew up on a remote Irish island off the coast of Ireland in the middle of the last Century. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * TADHG O'DONOGHUE HAS A PINT WITH SEANIEBEE For the final podcast of 2016, we get a fascinating insight into what it was like to grow up in Ireland in the middle of the last century. Tadgh O'Donoghue was raised on Valentia Island in the Kingdom of Kerry; graduated from UCD, and eventually became a partner in PWC where he played a pivotal role in attracting foreign investment into the country. Like most Kerrymen, he is a Gaelic football fanatic and tells us all about the most popular sport in Ireland. We also discuss the future of capitalism and the factors that lead to economic crashes, the rise of Trump, inequality, and the current populist dissention that is spreading across our world. Seaniebee would like to thank all of you who have supported and helped grow A Pint With Seaniebee since its launch last January.

The world lost a legend last week. A man who, in his own words, was oscillating on a different frequency. Pete Dunne was an artist, singer, storyteller and raconteur. He decided to hitchhike from London to Afghanistan in 1977, and spent ten years as a Celtic Sadhu wandering Indian Himalayas, allowing the universe to provide for him, which it always did. Pete was a kind man. A kindred spirit, but so much braver than I could ever be. I only met him in the last two years of his life. But I am honoured to have known him. Pete got married to his beloved, Gilly Kelly Dunne the week before he died. My heart and love goes out to her and all those who cherished him. ALSO IN THIS EPISODE: The Don and Seaniebee share tips and advice on how to reduce anxiety and protect your mental health during the ongoing pandemic lockdown.

The podcast turns 4 years old today and to celebrate, Seaniebee and The Don hack through the search for truth: how hard it is to find these days and how we need to start accepting that none of the ancient texts of the major Abrahamic religions will ever provide us with the answer. As the relevance and plausibility of faith continues to dissipate, perhaps it is time for the world to collectively create “Religion 4.0” – a new belief system predicated around the stored knowledge and realities of being a human in the 21st Century.

David Brain and Seaniebee worked together as the first planning directors at BateyAds in Singapore under the mercurial Ian Batey. He subsequently rose to the top of Edelman where he spent 13 years running Asia from his home in Auckland. We share old war stories, Arthur C. Clarke's predictions for the future of flight, and why if you are looking to get into strategy, it's better to have Brain as a surname rather than Boyle.

It's Time for a New Kind of Advertising Agency Dave Dye has just launched a new ad agency in London – Love or Fear – focused on a return to common sense and emotionally big ideas when it comes to selling stuff. Having worked for many of the best agencies in the world, he and his team have set about attempting to answer the million-dollar question: how do you run an agency if you aspire to do really great work? He also shares the results of a fascinating, 6-week experiment he did with the chalkboards outside his local delicatessen, where he endeavoured to apply his thirty years experience to see if he could increase their sales of fine foods and other cheesy comestibles. Dave's podcast – Stuff From The Loft – is essential listening for anyone in marketing and advertising and an amazing resource for anyone planning to venture into the business.

“They were saying ‘certain stories shouldn't be told'…that was the reason they wanted it to be removed…like a quarter of a million people…there was one festival in the UK, they got so much hate mail, people saying they were going to boycott the festival if they were going to show the film, they ended up dropping it.” Filmmaker Vincent Lambe was the centre of much controversy earlier this year, when his short film – Detainment - was nominated for an Oscar. The movie charts the immediate aftermath of the arrest of two young boys charged with, and subsequently found guilty of, the 1993 murder of a two-year-old toddler named Jamie Bulger in Liverpool. The case was so disturbing it left a nation floundering for answers that never really came, and it remains a raw wound to the degree that a film such as this can cause the visceral backlash it did with many believing it should never have been made, not to mind being accepted into the Oscars. Vincent came under huge criticism for not engaging with Jamie Bulger's mother prior to making the film. The tabloid media eviscerated him and his film (including spreading many mistruths about its content), and more mainstream journalists found themselves gagged by editors when it came to reviews and any attempts to divorce content from hysteria. Detainment is a powerful work that is difficult to watch, and raises many questions about what constitutes responsible film-making around such sensitive subjects.

From humble farming beginnings, Roger Burton's career took him from selling antiques and clothes at Leicester Market, to one of the leading voices on the UK fashion scene. He had a huge role in the styling of early MTV videos and movies like Quadrophenia and Hackers, and is also the driving force behind the restoration of The Horse Hospital complex in Central London, where his huge clothes archive is currently housed. We discuss why Levis 501s are still one of the world's great icons and why fashion today is generally so blancmange and utterly lacking in shock, attitude or rebellion.

After 9 years as CEO, Tim Lindsay recently assumed the Chair of D&AD, the world's premier advertising awards organisation. With over 800 shows worldwide, and almost 1000 awards on offer at Cannes this year, we discuss whether award-bloat has jumped the relevance shark. We also debate the general health of the business and what the industry could be doing better to not only fix its ongoing diversity problems but also, the wider consumption-driven issues that blight the planet. It is becoming increasingly apparent that the world could do with a “Live Aid moment” perhaps driven by the world's top advertisers.

In the week that saw the happy announcement that Spitting Image is returning to our screens, we are joined by one of the original crew (he made Rolf Harris). Wilfrid Wood is one of the pre-eminent sculptors (not the Rodin type) and modern artists working in Britain today. His work is unique, playful and often ironic, especially his 3D portraits of the likes of Macca, Wazza, Bojo and Greta. He is also known for his superb caricatures. Amongst lots of other things, we discuss what it means to be beautiful and the current craze for over-doing the old makeup. [Oh, and correction: It was Cheryl Cole whose waxwork was recently removed from Tussauds. Seaniebee would like to apologise unreservedly to Sheryl Crow (who is probably too classy to have ever had one in the first place)].

"I've always believed that you're just trying to create one [important] work in your lifetime, it just takes all your fucking lifetime to try and achieve it." Filmmaker, artist and writer Denis Buckley was raised in the repressive, hypocritical, religious Ireland of the 1970s. His only respite came from the Cinema Paradiso-esque joy of film at a local cinema. The early death of his father caused him to rebel and escape the country at 20 and he has lived and worked in London ever since. We discuss what it means to be Irish and the ideas of national identity and fidelity to one's country as it applies to the growing global populism and isolationism. He also shares his profound wisdom on the role of the artist and art in today's society. His new project, which explores the immediate aftermath of the Grenfell fire, opens at Galway 126 on September 6th.
