The Global Affair Podcast

The DNA of an Entrepreneur: Risk, Shame, and the Future of Motorsport.

What actually separates a successful founder from everyone else? According to Benjamin Jarrett, it isn’t just intelligence, it’s a high tolerance for pain and an appetite for ambiguity.

In this episode, Nicole sits down with Benjamin Jarrett, an Australian founder who is now revolutionising motorsport fan engagement through his company, RPM. 

In this episode, we discuss:

- The Entrepreneurial Personality: Why "propensity for risk" is the ultimate differentiator.
- Institutional Wisdom: Applying market-structure thinking to blockchain and motorsport.
- The Inner Battle: Dealing with the cycle of shame and running away from "predictable" paths.
- The Future of RPM: How prediction-driven systems are changing the way we watch racing.

- Emotional data, emotion tracking ethics, and the risks of data commercialization
- Two-factor authentication using biometrics for privacy protection
- Governance and policy, including AI regulation, the EU AI Act, and global tech governance gaps

#authenticexpression #evolvinggenderdynamics #TheGlobalAffairPodcast

In this episode of The Global Affair, Nicole Gibson and Jack Bohannan step into a raw, nuanced conversation about the evolution of gender roles across cultures.

This is not a debate. It is a deep inquiry.

Jack shares reflections from his global travels, from matriarchal structures in Southeast Asia to patriarchal expectations in the West. Nicole unpacks how societal systems shape, limit, and sometimes liberate our experience of gender.

They explore the tension between honoring biological reality and allowing full-spectrum self-expression. The question is not who is right. The question is whether we can hold complexity without collapsing into conflict.

If you are tired of binary thinking and ready for a conversation that respects both science and soul, this is for you.

In this episode of The Global Affair, I sit down with Marquesa Finch—VC and founder who’s challenging the status quo, and Dr. Kaushik Ram, neuroscientist and InTruth’s Chief of Science. This isn’t a polite panel. It’s a bare-knuckled conversation about what’s really at stake as AI, blockchain, and emotional tech collide.
  
We speak frankly about:

- The cost of ignoring emotional data in the design of tech
- Why sovereign infrastructure isn’t just a technical issue—it’s a human one
- How quantum computing could unravel everything we trust about encryption
- The tension between speed, decentralization, and safety
- Who gets to own your health data—and why that matters more than ever
- The addiction to LLMs and the slow creep of emotional numbing in digital systems
- What it actually takes to build ethical leadership in tech—beyond PR statements

You won’t find hype here. Just hard questions, real frameworks, and a shared willingness to look at the emotional, cultural, and ethical layers of this moment.

This is for the builders who know responsibility can’t be outsourced. And for the founders who are done pretending they’re not affected.
