My first solo episode of 2025!

The aim is to regularly release short 5- to 10- minute solo episodes on a range of different topics.

And, as we're halfway through January, I thought we'd make this first one new year’s resolutions-themed...

Enjoy.

Russell Baker is my buddy from down under.

We connected a couple of years ago, he’s been on the show before and I’ve been a guest on his podcast (“New Ways”).

He’s my guy when I have questions about tech, social media, website, AI and more. When I needed a new website, logo and branding, he’s the one I messaged and thanks to him and his design studio, A Modern Remedy, theinsightpodcast.com is alive and kicking with a back catalogue of all my episodes, searchable by topic and guest!

Today’s episode is all about the changes and events we're seeing on social media, at Google and the future of AI.

I talk to Russell about:

- The recent exodus of users from Twitter and the roles of Trump and Musk

- The history and makeup of Bluesky and why users are increasing

- His predictions for social media in 2025

- Why you need to know about the breakup of Google and how it could affect you

- Why he thinks we need to be wary of the rise of AI

- Ways to protect your data, privacy and, more importantly, your creativity and authenticity in the modern age

- & much more

Welcome to a special bite-sized (4-minute) episode of the Insight Podcast.

There are three questions I ask every guest.

One of those questions is, "What's one lesson you wish you'd have been taught as a child?"

More often than not, the answers I get are pretty profound and inspiring.

So, I thought it'd be cool to put together a selection of those answers for you to enjoy.

Get ready to hear from Dr Brendon Stubbs, Suzy Reading, Ross White and more!

Order of guests:

Adele Kamel Whitley

Andrew Sewell

Brendon Stubbs

Steve Foster

Helen Kewell

#130 is a 30-minute solo episode.

A quick life update followed by some questions that I asked ChatGPT to come up with to help me reflect on where I am and get some clarity on my next steps.

If it provides just a little comfort and support to someone who's in a similar position, then I'll be glad a took the time to record it and feel a little better about my slightly self-indulgent, cringe-worthy ramblings.

Enjoy!
