  • The One With The Very Expensive Phone Bill (feat. Anthony Hutton)

    Season 2 | Episode 6 | The One With The Very Expensive Phone Bill


    This week on How I Failed in Business, we’re joined by Big Brother 2005 winner Anthony Hutton—who’s swapped reality TV fame and dancing shoes for something far more meaningful.


    Anthony opens up about Never Throw in the Towel, his inspiring project supporting men’s mental health through honest conversations and pop-up barber shops. We talk about the highs, the lows, and the haircuts that happen in between.


    On the clippers this week:

    • Mental health & men’s spaces💈
    • Life after Big Brother 🌟
    • The power of never giving up
    • And a surprising dance career 🕺


    It’s real, it’s moving, and it’s a reminder that success isn’t always what it looks like on TV.

  • The One With Bamboozled

    Season 2 | Episode 5 | The One with Bamboozled


    This week on How I Failed In Business we’re throwing out the rulebook (and possibly our dignity) with our very own chaotic version of Bamboozled—yes, that confusing game from Friends. It makes even less sense when we play it.


    Here’s what’s on the board this week:

    Alternative Businesses 👀

    Musical Theatre Playlists 🎭🎶

    Our New Favourite Game !!! 🏆


    It’s competitive, it’s ridiculous, and it might just be our funnest episode yet.


    Join us every Tuesday for more fails, fixes, and fun. Because in business—and in fake game shows—you’ve got to play to fail, and fail to learn.

    • Our favourite childhood holiday memories
    • A spider-related incident we’re still recovering from 🕷
