August 01, 2022 BONUS Episode - A Shmoke and a Pancake, By Ekk
Geoff was in Hull and Paul was in Amsterdam for this one. Quite a bit of background noise so we painstakingly added the subtitles manually. Paul was supporting a CST applicant in their attempts to meet the requirements of the Scrum Alliance to become a certified trainer so we discussed how that came about, what it involves and how it was going for him, the co-trainer and the class.

The boys grabbed a nice summery pint at the Portwall Tavern in Bristol and, experimenting with some new kit, discussed visualising alternative perspectives to deal with different orders of magnitude. Inspired by Tim Urban of waitbutwhy.com

June 15, 2022 Episode 131 - Hedonism and Temporal Discounting
Geoff and Paul get together in The Libertine in Westbourne, Dorset for a mystery pint and a chat about hedonism - the theory that the satisfaction of desires is the highest good and proper aim of human life - and our tendency to over-value what we own in the here and now. We discuss a number of topics including Temporal Discounting, The Endowment Effect and Visualisation as well even drifting way off topic into Synaesthesia!
Enjoy!

May 11, 2022 Episode 130 - The Scrum Civil War
Hello patrons! Another episode has arrived! In this virtual episode Geoff was busy working away in Hull and stumbled across a VERY old pub connected with the English Civil War! That started some conversations around the battles between agile and scrum communities over the years.

We finished with a chat around crosswords! So here is a clue I mentioned at the end for you to work on...

Hard-line United Nations committee showing potential (14)

April 01, 2022 BONUS Episode - How do I do the "right" thing?
For those of you on the Regular and Legend tiers, you should see this in your feed today and our Legends will be invited to the Discord chat on Friday 8th April @ 1230 GMT+1.

We have trawled back through the pubcast archives and found an episode we recorded just before the pandemic hit, and the word "coronavirus" was merely a throwaway comment. In this one, Geoff & Paul discuss students who don't get certified in their classes, and how we can deal with conflict that arises and ultimately asking ourselves the question... how do I do the "right" thing?

March 25, 2022 Episode 128 - How can we motivate a low energy, apathetic team?
Welcome to another new episode of The Agile Pubcast!! Geoff & Paul met in a pub called The One Tun near Farringdon in London, a pub which dates back to 1759, but its moment of fame came in 1838, when Charles Dickens changed its name to the Three Cripples and made it Bill Sykes’ watering hole of choice in Oliver Twist.

In this episode, we get into a question about "motivation" from one of our patrons, Per Moller - especially as team members are low on energy after spending the best part of two years working from home.

We hope you enjoy the episode!!
