Sometimes you know you should be doing something but you just don't feel like it. It's tough to form new habits when we've spent a lifetime doing things a certain way.Here are the headlines:Combine activities to make the most of your timeWhen talking to strangers, a few set phrases can be very useful for starting conversationsTurn it into a game - can you make a stranger laugh?It's not about you. It's about the world.Ask people questions.Know why you're doing something. If you know why, you'll go through a bit of discomfort for a potential great result.---- This week's links ----[1] Michael’s new video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XV8wdrEVEmc [2] Thinknation - https://thinknation.co/ [3] The Marvellous Mrs Maisel - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B06X95VRRQ [4] Good and Kind - goodandkind.org [5] Positive News - https://www.positive.news/ [6] Meat or Two Veg on BBC - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-46459714/comments [7] Pineapple Project - women’s finances - https://www.abc.net.au/radio/programs/the-pineapple-project/ [8] Countries for Winners; Countries for Losers - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbpY-2nOYRI [9] Podcast on Universal Basic Income - https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/waking-up-with-sam-harris/id733163012?mt=2&i=1000414084329 ---- Credits ----Music by http://michaelforrestmusic.comTalking is by Ivanka Majic and Michael Forrest---- Follow us on Twitter ----https://twitter.com/ivankahttps://twitter.com/michaelforresthttps://twitter.com/PodcastGrand---- Grand Podcast Library ----Find links to everything we've mentioned on the podcast at http://grandpodcast.com/library---- Find us on Facebook ----https://www.facebook.com/grandpodcast See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

A realistic discussion of the challenges of space travel and colonisation preceded by a bit of nerding-out about rage and spreadsheets. We both know someone who went to space and Michael studied Physics so we're reasonably well-qualified to give you some original tidbits.---- This week's links ----[1] Thinknation - https://thinknation.co/ [2] Banksy's thing was supposed to work - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-45900314 [3] Frontier game (Elite 2) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontier:_Elite_II [4] Astronaut: The Last Push (film with protagonist called Michael Forrest) - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1541123/ [5] Rob Shrab why don’t they go down? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_Q0fYG5ajM [6] YouTube video about Halo - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNmHC5qfJfU ---- Credits ----Music by http://michaelforrestmusic.comTalking is by Ivanka Majic and Michael Forrest---- Follow us on Twitter ----https://twitter.com/ivankahttps://twitter.com/michaelforresthttps://twitter.com/PodcastGrand---- Grand Podcast Library ----Find links to everything we've mentioned on the podcast at http://grandpodcast.com/library---- Find us on Facebook ----https://www.facebook.com/grandpodcast See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

If we’re not getting our questions right, we’re not going to empower young people to create astonishing answers. This is why we’re shifting from framing questions of challenges around ‘problems’ to ‘solve this’. Subtle, but important. And puts us all on the front ‘can do’ foot rather than the back foot of ‘it’s all crappy and we can’t do anything about it.’ Because that’s NOT how this is going to play out, people… - We’re partnering with creative college, DV8!!! We're inviting young people from the college to create film responses to our 4 BIG questions for upcoming ThinkNation at Brighton Digital Festival. Why? Because if we empower young people and give them the opportunities and the framework to DO STUFF, THEY WILL!!! - We have a new member of our Advisory Board! Meet Professor Ruth Blakeley. Not only is she Professor of Politics and International Relations at the University of Sheffield.

WHAT WE'VE LEARNT: COMMUNICATION is key. Obvious. But more to the point, human communication matters - talking, being in the same space. Obviously, this is in ADDITION to the Slack’s and other such tools, but think this human element will play out more and more in coming years (PLUS I didn’t add to the vlog potential positive impact Voice COULD have… if we get it right). WHAT WE’VE DONE: Cross-pollination of my OTHER podcast with Brandon Relph, called “The Z-X Spectrum”. Last week’s episode (see links below) focused on young people and work - it was an interesting discussion, especially if we need to help young people understand the value of PATIENCE, PERSPECTIVE & PERSEVERANCE. WHAT WE’RE DOING: We’re putting on a special ThinkNation as part of Brighton Digital Festival, and we’re looking for mentors. We’ll be bringing young people & mentors together to help create stories/talks/responses to 4 BIG questions. LINKS: The Z-X Spectrum Podcast: https://anchor.fm/the-z-x-spectrum

Hello! In this week’s I cover: 1: WHAT WE'VE LEARNT: Sharing is caring - and that’s something I need to be doing far more of. We’re all in this crazy world together and there is strength in shining a light on great stuff, and supporting when other’s are experiencing hard times. But it’s more than that - we need to smash silos and learn from each other from all industries and professions: what work’s, what doesn’t. 2: WHAT WE'VE DONE: More on Project Twist-It and the story behind how we got the music for our film from the band She Drew The Gun (it’s a simple tweet-tale…). I also cover how we’re developing our audio and re-appropriating our ThinkNation talks, discussions, documentaries through a brilliant podcast platform called Anchor. YOU SHOULD USE IT TOO! 3: WHAT WE'RE DOING: Heads up for an event I’m talking at in November - the Good Tech Conference, which is focusing the discussion around tech that can have an impact in reducing food and packaging waste, 
and homelessness.

We talk about seeing famous people in public and Ivanka describes a bout of Brexit depression before we get down to the serious business of wondering what's so difficult about being self-aware.

I met 15-year-old serial entrepreneur--CEO of goCreative--and budding Drupalist Brandon Relph at the inaugural ThinkNation event in Canterbury, in December 2015. In this podcast, we talk about how he got to know Drupal 8 and what he thought of it. And I was surprised to learn that there is a world of professional Minecraft out there, in which Brandon runs two professional ventures and employs a couple dozen people around the world.
