In this episode I attempt to position a point with Joanne concerning the culture where people demand compliance with their views on race, gender equality and almost any other view they take. We get a little bogged down in the subject.

In this quick episode I discuss Covid-19 and the reasons why so many countries are experiencing second waves, and potentially second lockdowns. To me, it is all down to Covidiots.

Idea for Jo’s podcast … You could chat about covid in respect to how it would have effected our generation as kids.. no mobiles, iPads, social media, 4 channels on TV .. would have been very different. Simon

In this episode my wife, Joanne, and I talk about how Apple manages to create entire families of customers and how it helped them reach a $2 trillion valuation, and also her views on Apple products and how they work for her.

Finally, are millions of us working at home or living at work?

Just a quick chat to myself about the Apple Watch and the fact that it could actually be the best watch available in the world today. It scares me to say it, but I think it’s true.
