Before we get stuck into the news stories this week we have what can only be described as a bit of a bitch fest. James has been bitching about Luke behind his back and Mike thought it would be a smart idea to hang that dirty laundry out on the podcast.

After we have put our differences aside, we then talk about the first-ever Amazon shop that's opened in the UK, how China is conducting anal swab test on Japanese citizens and how in 2027 you could be spending your two week holiday in Space, rather than on a beach in Benidorm.

Usually we rely on James to bring value adding/business related stories to the podcast. His stories can often be boring but you can't deny that they add some value.

This week James failed to bring a news article with him, which means that the responsibility falls to Mike & Luke. The news this week starts with an American man that lived in an airport unnoticed for 3 months & is followed up with an article which exposes why people are getting banned from Pokemon Go.

This week's episode is a bit disjointed as Luke's microphone was playing up which meant he was all over the place. Although, you could see that as a positive as it presents Mike & James with the chance to talk for once.

The first story of this week focuses on how Zuckerberg & Facebook have decided to take on the Australian government in a squabble over licensing of content and paying media outlets for the news displayed on the platform.

James then shares the big news around how NASA has successfully landed Perseverance on Mars and we finish off by talking about the cold snap in Texas that's resulted in nearly 5,000 turtles washing up onshore.

This week we talk about the two Zoom calls that have taken the internet by storm. The Lawyer that accidentally turned up to court as a cat & the Parish Council Meeting that saw Jackie Weaver take control.

Then after that's all done and dusted it's onto the real news - The Weetabix campaign which took the internet by storm.

The big question is - Would you top your Weetabix with beans?

It wouldn't be the 'Not Another Start-Up Podcast' if we didn't go off on some unrelated tangent and this week is no exception to that rule! We commence this week by discussing what James's wife packs him for lunch.

Which does keep us entertained for a while.

Following on from 'What's in James's lunch box' we move on to the news of the week by chatting about Amazon's new HQ, Jeff Bezos stepping down as CEO & the government's BYOB plan... Yea that's right... Bring Your Own Biro.

It's official, we've been stabbed in the back!

Mike Hennan has decided to break away from the NASP and start his own podcast. So before jumping into the news, we start this episode with a farewell to Mike.

If you've not already seen this story in the news, where have you been?!?! We kick off this week by talking about the shenanigans caused by users from a Reddit group who drove up Game Stop shares which could cost hedge funds $13 billion has been every where.

After talking about stocks and shares we jump over to a conversation about how Spotify has filed for a patient that will allow them to recommend you music, based on your mood.

Enjoy

This weeks' episode turns into a small therapy session as we get caught in an honest conversation about the struggles we're all facing in starting up on our own.

How do you deal with those moments when you feel like throwing in the towel or you're stuck in the office at 10 at night wondering if you should be spending more time with family.

The news stories that we have for you this week are pretty spooky!

Luke shares a story about a 10ft shark that was discovered in an abandoned wildlife park in Australia whilst James has more evidence that Matt Groening is a time traveler, as once again the Simpsons are predicting the future.

The NASP is back for the first episode of 2021.

As it's the first episode of the year, we kick off this week's episode with a quick catch-up to find out how everyone's Christmas was & what goals we all have for our businesses in 2021. Then we dive into the content which seems to be heavily focused on the 'World's Richest Man' (Elon Musk).

We talk about his rise to the top of the rich list as he's now jumped above Jeff Bezos and we discuss Facebook's new privacy policy changes to WhatsApp which means they will gain access to your data.

Enjoy...

IT'S CHRISTMAS and It's the final episode of 'The Not Another Start-Up Podcast' for 2020. As 2020 has been such a wacky year, we thought there's no better way to end it than eating the wacky 'Pigs In Blankets Cheescake' also known as the notorious P.I.B.

Join Luke Pitkin, James Hardy & Mike Hennan as we say goodbye to 2020 eating Cheesecake and playing Christmas Games. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you all!

We will be back in 2021
