Description

Just before we take a break for the summer, we jumped on a call to chat through what we have learned from the season so far. we're about half way through and we've learned from some incredible people.

Our first segment was all about Curation: how to discover and qualify information.

• The BBC's Chris Warburton joined us to talk about how to ask good questions.
• Psychologist Dr Simon Moore taught us about all the different ways of listening.
• Dr Lauren Kirwan helped us to understand empathy better - what it is, and what it is not.
• Gemma Milne talked to us about the importance of scepticism and our responsibility to challenge and ask questions.
• Elections analyst Professor Rob Ford helped us to understand the meaning in people's words - even when they don't say what they mean.
• Finally, data scientist Caroline Keep taught us how to extract meaning from numbers.

Then we kicked off our segment on Creation: how to make new things.

• Fashion designer Supriya Lele shared where she finds inspiration.
• And start-up investor Jon Bradford talked to us about iterations and pivots.

Coming up we have loads more great guests. Superstar DJ Graeme Park talking about remixing, acclaimed author Sarah Butler on the editing process, and the brilliant Bec Evans on how to write.

Listen in to find out what has really stuck in our brains so far. And what we've got coming up.

Even though this was a very short episode, it had a lot of outtakes. And we thought they were pretty funny. So just as a one-off, we thought we'd share them at the end.

Have a great summer!
