Simon & I celebrate 50 episodes of this podcast, share our thoughts on the last 2 shows & disappear down a few tangential rabbit holes. It’s just your typical social episode really, including:

• getting it done - having ideas & then executing on them (even without a coffee boost)

• different ways to make CFD more accessible (AirShaper & Discovery Live) - a.k.a. “getting your 80%”

• how “democratisation” might have got lost in a cupboard with “digital twins” & “the internet of things”

• SPH (whatever that is) 😉
