Recently there has been a lot of discussions and social media debate about the apparent crisis within the farriery profession.This has centred around the economy of farriery as a profession and the lack of training providers and people coming into the profession.Like all farriery rants on social media, we all shared it on our feed so no doubt your customers can see it and feel sorry for you! Id like to add at this point “they don't care”. I have personally thought for some time in the UK that we are most of the time subsidising their hobby and their want to own a horse compared to the prices with the rest of the developed world.To fix this it will take more than farriers sharing a well written post by another farrier on their social media. We need to get in a room together discover how we got in this situation in the first place, work on strategies to improve our value and to raise the price of farriery and go up together.Up until this point apart from moaning no one has proactively done anything to resolve this situation until now.Tom Smith FWCF, an experienced farrier who has been in the business since 2006, discusses his career journey, the challenges faced by the farrier industry, and the need for change. He highlights the potential lack of farriers in the future, the struggle with proper pricing, and the undervaluation of their work. Tom introduces 'Forge Smart,' a 10-month program designed to help farriers improve their business acumen, raise their prices collectively, and enhance the professionalism of the industry. The discussion covers the importance of community, professional development, and re-evaluating traditional practices to ensure the sustainability and growth of the farrier profession.www.forgesmart.co.ukThank you to the Podcast Sponsorswww.silverbackchaps.comwww.theshoeinglab.com

The Go-To Food Podcast proudly introduces The Legends' Roundtable— a brand-new monthly series celebrating the chefs, kitchens, and ideas that have shaped modern gastronomy. Each episode, we gather some of the most respected names in the industry to reflect on where food has come from, where it's going, and what it truly means to dedicate a life to hospitality.For our inaugural Round Table, we are delighted to be hosted in the extraordinary Trinity restaurant where we are joined by Michelin starred legends, Adam Byatt of Trinity, Phil Howard of Elystan Street and John Williams of The Ritz to dive into Escoffier's Legacy and the timeless foundations that still underpin great kitchens today.In a lively and honest conversation, three legendary chefs open up about the evolution of the industry — from the old-school days when chefs could focus solely on craft, to today's harsher realities where financial precision is critical to survival. They explore the irreplaceable thrill of cooking, the unique rewards of creating something ephemeral yet deeply meaningful, and the hard balance between natural flair and disciplined technique.The discussion peels back the layers of what it really takes to be a great chef: the importance of marrying creativity with meticulousness, the subtle but crucial connection between cook and ingredient, and the difference between chefs driven by pure love of food and those who focus on process. They reflect on the irreplaceable role of mentorship, the pride in seeing protégés rise, and the deep emotional bonds forged through years of relentless service.With unforgettable stories from iconic kitchens, candid reflections on leadership and legacy, and plenty of laughs (and tart anecdotes) along the way, The Legends' Round Tables is a love letter to the world of food — and to everyone who has ever fallen in love with it.-----------Grab hold of the hottest reservations in town with the app ResX - https://www.resx.coSupport the incredible work of the Royal Academy of Culinary Arts - https://royalacademyofculinaryarts.org.uk/ Hosted on Acast.

The latest Polys Ombudsperson of the Year is Ingrid Kopp, and previous winners Brittan Heller, Michaela Montagna, and myself gathered again on December 8 2024 to reflect on the current state of the XR industry as well as the specific ethical concerns about the intersection between XR and AI. We also speak about some of the power of storytelling to unpack some of these moral dilemmas, as well as tech policy in the context of the existing political climate, but also some of the broader and general trends of the XR industry. In my takeaways at the end, I also elaborate on the leaked memo from Meta CTO Andrew "Boz" Bosworth saying "We need to drive sales, retention, and engagement across the board but especially in MR. And Horizon Worlds on mobile absolutely has to break out for our long term plans to have a chance. If you don't feel the weight of history on you then you aren't paying attention. This year likely determines whether this entire effort will go down as the work of visionaries or a legendary misadventure." A lot of their Meta's commitment to XR seems to be directly tethered to the success or failure of their own first-party app. Zuckerberg's AR/VR Strategy memo from 2014 leaked to TechCrunch by Blake Harris now seems particularly prescient: "for now keep in mind that we need to succeed in building both a major platform and key apps to improve our strategic position on the next platform. If we only build key apps but not the platform, we will remain in our current position. If we only build the platform but not the key apps, we may be in a worse position." Zuckerberg later elaborates that apps and experiences are their top priority in XR: "I think you can divide the ecosystem into three major parts: apps / experiences, platform services and hardware / systems. In my vision of ubiquitous VR / AR, these are listed in order of importance." As time has passed, it's become more and more clear that the success of Meta's Horizon worlds may be directly tethered to Meta's overall commitment to the XR industry. Just yesterday, Meta announced a $50 million dollar fund for Meta Horizon World creators, with special awards for mobile: "By investing in mobile content, we can reach a lot of new people who don't yet own a Quest headset and ultimately grow the pie for everyone. That's why, as part of our $50 million Creator Fund for creators of mobile and MR worlds, we're also announcing our first creator competition of the year with a focus on mobile." UploadVR did a really great follow-up report about "From Quest To Horizon: How Meta's Shifting Priorities Are Affecting Developers" that includes many anonymous statements from XR developers talking about the impact of Meta's shifting priorities. This is a listener-supported podcast through the Voices of VR Patreon. Music: Fatality
