Part Two of our special chat with Richard Archer from Hard-Fi, recorded at The Steam Packet in Kew, sees Billy "The Bee" Grant, Dave "Laney" Lane and Martin "The Dutchman" Holland settle in for one of those pub conversations that takes on a life of its ownRichard reflects on Hard-Fi's incredible rise from Staines to worldwide success, opening up on the highs, the lows and everything in between. He shares stories of touring the world, playing to crowds of almost a million people, working with Paul Weller and Mick Jones, his love of Brentford, and why AI will never write the next great football anthemBut this isn't just Richard telling stories. Around the table everyone gets involved. Billy recounts how he signed Vindaloo and ended up DJing soul and R&B at the VIP after-party after both of Oasis' legendary Knebworth concerts. Laney digs into the memory banks to recall a rather hazy tale involving a Shamen gig that he still can't quite piece together, while The Dutchman reminisces about New Order and some of the greatest football records ever madeWhat unfolds is less of an interview and more of a proper pub story-fest, with football, music, travel and life all colliding as one brilliant tale sparks another. It's the sort of conversation that only happens when four mates get together over a pintIf you enjoyed Part One, you'll love this - a funny, fascinating and wonderfully unpredictable conversation packed with stories, laughs and plenty of unexpected detours

Most directors focus on securing their first board appointment. Andrea Staines OAM took a different approach. Nearly 20 years ago, she made the deliberate decision to build a portfolio career as a full-time non-executive director, long before it became a recognised career path. Today, Andrea is regarded as one of Australia's pioneers of the professional portfolio director, serving across transport, infrastructure and retail while continually evolving her career. Speaking on the latest 20 Years of Women on Boards podcast, she shares the principles that have guided her journey. One of Andrea's strongest messages is that directors need to manage their careers with the same discipline they would apply to running a business. "You have to think of yourself as a business," she says. That means continually building your network, keeping your profile current, investing in your professional development and always looking ahead to the next opportunity. Building a board portfolio doesn't stop once you've secured your first appointment, it requires ongoing business development and a clear understanding of the value you bring. Rather than pursuing every opportunity, Andrea carefully identified where her executive experience would have the greatest impact. She deliberately built a portfolio across transport, infrastructure and retail services, creating diversity while staying true to her expertise. Perhaps her most memorable observation is that the greatest rewards of board work aren't financial. "Don't do board work for the money. If you want the money, stay as an executive." Instead, she believes board careers offer something far more valuable: professional diversity, personal flexibility and the opportunity to keep learning. After nearly two decades in the boardroom, Andrea's message is simple. A successful board career isn't built on a single appointment, it's built through continuous learning, thoughtful choices and a willingness to keep evolving.

The Wests Tigers have signed New Zealand Warriors cult player, Bunty Afoa. Always a strong performer when playing against our club, Afoa is coming across the ditch on a one-year deal with Wests Tigers for season 2026.But what does the signing of the 29-year-old front-rower mean for the 2026 prop rotation, and in particular, for existing impact prop, Royce Hunt? Joel Helmes is joined by Nick Hayes and Declan McCutcheon on this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast to discuss the signing of Afoa and make some predictions around the impacts in 2026 on Hunt, Pole, Sione Fainu, and Twal.Another "off the back fence" type prop has also been linked to the Wests Tigers in recent times, Nathan Brown. Brown, who debuted with the Wests Tigers way back in 2013, could be heading back to the club as a swap for Jack Bird. Is this a good move? Does the Afoa signing put an end to this deal? And what do we expect from Jack Bird next year if he remains with the club?Also on the agenda of this off-season edition of the podcast is the announcement that Terrell May has won the 2025 Kelly-Barnes Award. The boys discuss the reasons why May was the standout for the award, but a few other potential winners also get a mention. There's also a look at what we might get from the 2025 Rookie of the Year, Tony Sukkar, in 2026.Lastly, the Wests Tigers bus has made a stop and let a few guys off. Staines, Feledy, Matamua, etc, didn't come as a great surprise. However, there was one name on the departing players list that we might not have seen coming: Brent Naden. We take a look at the reasons why Brent was put through the shredder and what that might mean for our backline next year.As the weather starts to heat up and the countdown to the start of pre-season training commences, we hope you enjoy this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast.

Audio from the 2024 Charleston Conference Leadership Interview Series. Heather Staines, Senior Strategy Consultant, Delta Think interviews Kamran Naim, the Head of Open Science at CERN (Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire). CERN was founded in 1954 as a project not only to advance our fundamental understanding of basic scientific questions about who we are and where we come from but also as an instrument to get European countries to work together on a common scientific mission. It is the world's largest particle physics laboratory and largest research organization. In this conversation, Kamran tells us about his work as Head of Open Science at CERN to make all CERN research freely and publicly accessible.  Kamran has helped build national digital library access systems in countries like Pakistan, Madagascar, and Iraq. He has supported the Iraqi Virtual Science Library to reconnect scholar's post-conflict, and has worked with USAID on extending similar models across North and East Africa. Kamran was recruited to CERN to manage SCOAP³, the world's largest collective OA initiative, serving over 3,000 institutions. He works closely with librarians across the globe through CERN's partnerships and programs, and praises librarians as essential allies in open science.

Audio from the 2024 Charleston Conference Leadership Interview Series. Heather Staines, Senior Strategy Consultant, Delta Think interviews Andrea Cayetano-Jefferson, a sixth-generation Gullah Geechee sweetgrass basket sewer from Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. We had the pleasure of having Andrea speak with us at this year's Charleston Library Conference and got to experience her beautiful sweetgrass basket display inside the Gaillard Center. In this conversation, Andrea shares the history of sweetgrass baskets, which is one of the oldest African American art forms still practiced in the United States. She tells us about her personal journey in the craft which began in her childhood, the difficult process of collecting materials to create these baskets,  the cultural significance of the Gullah Geechee language, and the challenges of sustaining this ancient art form today for future generations. Today, these baskets are cherished not only as works of art but as a living connection to history, preserving the skills and stories of a people who have called the Lowcountry home for centuries.
