Martin Walker's Bruno, the French police chief at the heart of his best-selling Perigord mystery series, is everyone's ideal cop – as well as the town's most eligible bachelor and a talented host with an international award-winning cook book in his name . . . . Hi there, I'm your host Jenny Wheeler and today Martin Walker talks about French charm, his passion for the Perigord, and his years as a diplomatic correspondent in Gorbachev's Moscow and Clinton's Washington. Six things you'll learn from this Joys of Binge Reading episode: Why Martin's wife Julia is his most important assetThe freedom of writing novelsHob nobbing with world leadersBruno's passion for good foodCharmed by cave dweller sensibilitiesPerigord food and wine ambassador Where to find Martin Walker: Website: http://www.brunochiefofpolice.com/ Facebook: @BrunoChiefOfPolice What follows is a "near as" transcript of our conversation, not word for word but pretty close to it, with links to important mentions. Jenny: But now, here's Martin. Hello there Martin and welcome to the show, it's great to have you with us. Martin: Hello Jenny. I don't think I've ever had an interview from such a long distance before! Author Martin Walker - Bruno Chief of Police mysteries and former diplomatic correspondent Jenny: Yes. It's wonderful what modern technology can do. You're in Washington DC and I'm an Auckland New Zealand, and that's really fun. You've had a distinguished career as a journalist with top newspapers, including as diplomatic correspondence for The Guardian in London. What made you switch to fiction? Martin: When we were based in Brussels, my wife decided that we'd been foreign correspondents for all of our lives and our children needed a place to be rooted. She decided we should get a house in the Perigord, which we'd visited from time to time because we have some friends who were there. Remarkable prehistoric caves Caves of Perigord - where it all began. Martin Walker's first novel I became increasingly fascinated by the Perigord, particularly by the prehistory, the prehistoric caves, like Lascaux. I remember the shock when I first saw it and thought, my God, these people were in no sense primitive. We've been quite wrong about this. I mean, the artistic sensibility, it was like our own. And so I began researching, interviewing the archeologists and reading books and visiting all the caves. And I wrote my novel, The Caves of Perigord, which is still in print, I'm proud to say, which is really about what kind of human society that could have produced at Lascaux. Before that, my books were pretty conventionally journalistic - a history of the cold war, a book about Gorbachev in Peristroika. A book about modern America and the history of America and so on and a book about the National Front in England. So the sense of liberation in writing this novel about the Perigord, got me even more locked into the fascination with this part of France. Art work from the prehistoric Lascaux caves - setting for Martin Walker's first novel. Moving into Bruno mysteries Jenny: That's fantastic. So you moved on to the mystery genre and a French police chief called Bruno. How did you make the choice of genre? You've explained the setting, but why did you go to mysteries? Martin: Well, because in our village in France, I became friends with a local neighbor who took me down to the tennis club and rugby club. And I began playing on Friday mornings when I was there, in a little foursome of three local people and me. Of course, it was a very gentle game of tennis from about 10 30 till about midday. And then we went into the tennis club, which being France has a wonderful kitchen, and we made ourselves a pretty spectacular lunch. And one of the four people I played with was a man who have been in the French army for 10 years and spend his spare time teaching the local kids to play tennis and rugby.

Martin Grider went to college for an english degree with a creative writing focus and is a freelance software developer focused on game development and you can see his website at Abstract Puzzle and also Chesstris. [1:20] how Martin got into game development – even though he was an English major he started doing web development, actually for the English department in college. There have been times where a 4 year computer science degree was required and those jobs, even with experience, were not available to Martin. [4:30] Goes into the background of getting into game development – writes in his game journal every day, and tries to have a new idea every day. You can use a tool called Unity https://unity3d.com/ [7:00] Making money in the gaming world is extremely challenging, about 1 in 6 from the big game companies will make money. [9:08] Martin is really fired up about the Nintendo Switch. [10:40] An Ah-ha moment is that he gets most of his ideas in the shower – figured out some grid movement for Tetris and chess – Action Chess. [14:00] Getting through college – he had a big gap in math from freshman year to college – do not have any math gaps – keep taking the math. [15:25] Why Martin went for English vs Computer Science – he always thought he wanted to be a writer and not a game developer – the computer side was always just for fun and that turned into the career. He highly recommends getting a computer science degree / software development – it is very practical. [18:12] Lightning Round – while he did not take the advice, go to California to start a company. He follows what he thinks is really interesting and that has led to success. His favorite internet resource is Board Game Geek and a book he recommends is “Snow Crash” by Neal Stephenson.

Welcome to the What’s Next! podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week, we have Martin Lindstrom on the show. Martin has developed an unorthodox method of doing what every company says it wants to do: understanding its consumers’ deepest desires and turning them into breakthrough products, brands or retail experiences. He’s a change agent, brand futurist, best-selling author, and pioneer in the fields of consumer psychology, brand marketing, and neuroscientific research. Martin is also the anchor and producer of NBC’s popular show, ‘Main Street Makeover.’ Martin is living with less technology. He believes that we should get out of focus groups and into the homes of real customers. When you see how people are truly living and using products, you can create real value, spark creativity for future projects, and see the tiny details of the big picture.

But it turns out, it’s easier than you might think. And there are some fun tricks. This includes one where your dog tries to tell you which way is north in an exceptionally odd way. ~ Navigation Skills for Preppers Topics Discussed: * His backstory * Why Martin wrote Prepper's Survival Navigation * The case for learning how to navigate overland * Teaching kids about how to navigate overland * Talent vs pure skill * Simple exercises for learning and retaining the skill * Why not simply use a GPS and forget about learning the skill * Wilderness survival tips for in case you get lost ~ Become a supporting member here: http://www.itrh.net ~ Resources from this episode can be found at: http://www.intherabbithole.com/e225
