The Soap Box PodcastHow AI could make our systems fairer, with Tamara PolajnarLet’s be honest, for a lot of people in my world, AI feels like a bit of a villain right now. It’s been decimating creative industries, disrupting business models, and flooding the internet with content that’s at best soulless, and at worst, dangerous.

But today’s guest offers a different perspective. One that’s a littl...2025-07-1644 min

Vikki Yaffe says we’ve created systems and norms that don’t work for 95% of the population.

The Soap Box PodcastWhat do you REALLY need to do to market your business, with Danielle ThompsonWe think we know what it takes to market a business online.

How do you s...2025-05-1543 min

Thankfully, she’s not just insightful – she’s also scathingly funny, allergic to bullshit, and one hell of a communicator.Lauren is the founder of LBee Health, a...2025-04-1752 min
