In this episode of TEEBOX Talk, we hit the fairways with Brad Burton — the UK’s No.1 motivational business speaker — for one of the most raw, honest, and important conversations we’ve ever filmed.

A single selfie in 2019 spiralled into a four-year campaign of online harassment that devastated Brad’s business, reputation, income, mental health, and family life.

False accusations. Forged documents. Thousands of social posts. A fanatical online audience. And a justice system that struggled to keep up.

Whether you rely on your personal brand, operate in the construction space, or run a business built on trust, this one will hit home. Hard.

When compliance meets chaos, you get the HardHats Party Hole.

We rolled up to the TSM Charity Golf Day at London Golf Club and turned the 18th hole into something the industry won’t forget.

- DJ booth? Check.

- Tequila shots? Flowing.

- Energy? Through the roof.

But behind the fun was a serious purpose — raising money for the Chris Aked Foundation, supporting children and families through loss.

This video gives you a front-row seat to what happens when business, community, and a bit of disruption collide.

HardHats doesn’t do quiet golf days — we do unforgettable ones. 

Listen now for:

→ Highlights from the Party Hole

→ The story behind the event

→ How construction’s most disruptive brand does charity the HardHats way

From Umbrella to Ecosystem — Adam Jordan on rebuilding trust, redefining compliance, and reshaping the future of construction payroll.

In this episode of TEEBOX Talk, we hit the fairways at Golf at Goodwood with Adam Jordan, founder of the SupplyIN2 ecosystem and one of the sharpest minds in contractor payroll.

From scaling one of the UK’s biggest umbrella firms to 10,000+ contractors a week, to now building a tech-driven platform focused on transparency and trust, Adam’s journey is one of experience, reinvention, and calling out industry BS.

This conversation pulls no punches. We dive deep into the realities of construction payroll, the hidden traps of the umbrella model, and why Adam believes HardHats represents the next evolution of how compliance should be done.

Whether you’re a subcontractor trying to protect your pay, or a business owner navigating a messy supply chain — this one’s packed with insights you’ll actually use.

What you’ll get in this episode:

→ The journey from running an umbrella empire to building a full ecosystem

→ The lessons from scaling 10,000 contractors per week (and when to pivot)

→ Why the industry needs HardHats — straight from a payroll veteran

→ The truth about subcontractor safety nets and how to fix them

→ Payroll vs CIS vs Umbrella — what works, what doesn’t, and why

→ Why compliance isn’t just box-ticking — it’s confidence

→ Rebuilding trust in one of the UK’s most “dodgy” industries

→ What makes a payroll business valuable (and how to prepare for exit)

→ Adam’s best advice for subbies and business owners playing the long game

This isn’t another corporate compliance chat.

It’s real talk from people who’ve seen every side of the system — and are now building something better.

TEEBOX Talk brings golf, graft, and grounded conversations to the world of construction and business. No fluff. No filters. Just the truth behind the industry.

From Portsmouth lad to club captain — this is how Marlon Pack came full circle, led his Portsmouth FC, and found his rhythm both on the pitch and on throughout his life.

In this episode of TEEBOX Talk, we tee off at Golf at Goodwood with Marlon Pack, captain of Portsmouth FC. From loyalty and leadership to pressure and performance, Marlon opens up about his journey back to Fratton Park, what it means to wear the armband, and the lessons football has taught him that apply far beyond the game.

We cover everything from the highs of a title-winning season to the realities of slumps, setbacks, and keeping a squad focused when the chips are down. Along the way, Marlon shares his mentality under pressure, how trust and culture define a team, and why golf is his escape from the chaos of professional sport.

This is what happens when you mix football honesty with golf banter — no fluff, no clichés, just the raw story of what it takes to lead from the front.

What you’ll get in this episode:

→ The emotional pull of returning to your boyhood club

→ What real leadership looks like in a modern dressing room

→ Resetting after setbacks — lessons for sport and business

→ Behind-the-scenes moments from a title-winning run

→ How golf sharpens focus off the pitch

→ The “Pack Mentality” and what legacy means to Marlon

This isn’t your polished, PR-approved football podcast. It’s TeeBox Talk: golf, graft, and grounded conversations that actually matter.

Watch it now — and take the lessons back to your own game, on or off the pitch.

From apprentice spark to national contractor; This is how Colm Doyle built NCD Group and kept quality at the core.

In this episode of TEEBOX Talk, we’re walking the fairways with Colm Doyle, founder of NCD Group - a business built from the ground up with a clear mission: raise the standard.

From starting as an apprentice electrician to running one of the UK's most trusted electrical and smoke ventilation specialists, Colm shares how his obsession with detail, team culture, and subcontractor management has helped scale his business — without cutting corners.

We cover everything from the real-life challenges of commissioning life-safety systems to Colm’s views on payroll vs. subbies, digital QA tools, and the worst mistakes he's seen on site.

This is what happens when you combine trade pride with modern thinking — no fluff, no gimmicks, just real business insight from someone who’s lived it.

What you'll get in this episode:

→ A no-BS journey from spark to specialist

→ How to build a high-performing team without lowering standards

→ Subbies vs payroll: when to use what (and how to stay compliant)

→ Horror stories from the field — and what they taught Colm

→ Why culture beats process when scaling trades businesses

Colm is also a HardHats client. We helped prove his subcontractors were genuinely self-employed — and HMRC agreed.

This isn’t your polished, airbrushed business podcast. It’s TeeBox Talk: golf, graft, and grounded advice that actually applies to the real world.

Watch it now. Then go raise your own standard.

This episode of TeeBox Talk is unlike anything we've filmed before—because we shot it on a frozen lake in St. Moritz. Yep, once a year, the lake freezes solid and becomes a golf course. So obviously, we packed our clubs, grabbed the cameras, and invited our own Chief Weirdo and marketing mastermind Lewis Ellis to join us.

Lewis is the founder of Hussel, the agency behind the madness of HardHats. From drones delivering cocktails to fake celebrity stunts, his team specialises in disruptive marketing—and he’s now bringing that same energy to the construction industry.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

→ Why most marketing in construction is painfully bland—and how to fix it

→ The real reason HardHats is leaning so hard into creative content

→ How Ash & Dan grew to create smashing content that actually builds brand equity

→ What it takes to lead a business from the front

→ Why being memorable is more profitable than being perfect

If you work in construction, run a business, or just want to know how to make your brand unforgettable, this one's for you.

Forget suits, scripts and studio lights—this is TeeBox Talk.

Just golf, grit, and some serious marketing sauce. 🏌️‍♀️🔥
