Mariana and I sat down to talk about her book, 'That Suburbia Lady', and the conversation really ended up being about so much more!

Career, success, visible to invisible, family, writing this chat really has something for everyone.

Toastmasters started this chapter of Mariana's life and I am certain you will be laughing and nodding your head along with this conversation as I did.

Glenn Power and I podcast a CarTalk show called POWERRWORKS and this is it!

We are still talking chips and cars and that doesn't seem to be ending any time soon.

Oh and then there is our customer service chat...

And the new Honda Civic is out and it is interesting and that is worth talking about.

A nice chat to keep you company!

Just over 9 years ago Shady Ahmed joined me in the DubaiEye 103.8FM studios to talk about his exciting new album.

Fast forward to 2021 and Shady and I are talking again about an album this time he is in Cairo and I am in Dubai.

This is a wonderful chat about creativity, music, marketing, ideas and the value of stubbornly sticking with your decisions.

Great conversation and great music is what this podcast is all about!

Andrew Thomas and I talk tech on our PODAHOLIKS podcast and this is that chat!

Andrew is fresh back from the USA in this conversation and where is he going now to get the tech pulse of the nation, Best Buy!

We also had a chat about the new iPhone, battery power and lots more.

Glenn Power and I podcast a show on the automotive industry called POWERRWORKS and thus is that chat!

We spend a lot of time talking about VW as a brand because Glenn loves VW and that got me thinking about brands and such and do we stick to a brand regardless of the quality and innovation?

Of course, there is a bit of a chat about eccentrics like Brock of Moose Jaw and fuel economy and lots more.

As always a great conversation.

 I had the opportunity to sit down and talk about the space industry with Jason Michaud the chief executive officer at Stardust Industries.

Jason is a disrupter but in a good way, he has been affectionately called the mosquito because he is persistent.

Jason's mission has not changed since he started Stardust Industries in 2014. The mission is to empower the space industry through innovations in technologies, science, with the goal of making space more accessible to humanity.

We talked about how Jason came to represent the Canadian space industry in Dubai, the human side of space living and more.

Sit back and enjoy the ride Jason has so much to share!

Dr. Jenna Burton and I met up on ZOOM and talked about training and injuries!

Plenty of laughs and advice here!

Glenn Power and I talk cars on the POWERWORKS podcast and this is it!

Oil in the coolant, not a good mix.

The simple fix for a display that can't be changed and engine repair intimidation why we don't fix our own cars so much!

Just great talk!

Colin Thomas from WeWillFixIt Dubai and I talk DIY and in this episode, we did that and more!

Storms were on our mind and the cost to an annual maintenance provider!

Sweepers, paint and more made the cut!

Rents are climbing and what that means for DIY!

Just great talk! 

This is the podcast version of our October 2021 breakfast lecture by Priyal Mehta on the theme DESIGN.

Priyal Mehta is the chef and owner of Dulce de Mirchi. With a

background in design and the culinary arts, she curates

multi-sensory dining experiences where the diners can explore

her playful mélange of flavours and dishes inspired by her third

culture existence.

Priyal studied Strategic Design and Management from Parsons

The New School for Design in New York. She later started her

culinary journey with an intensive and enriching Chef’s training

program at the Natural Gourmet Institute for health & culinary

arts in Manhattan. During her time in the U.S.A., she had the

opportunity to receive training from Jean George’s ABC

Restaurants to learn about Japanese Shojin cuisine at Kajitsu.

As a chef, she wants to design food experiences that introduce

people to plant-based food through carefully crafted menus —

her contemporary creations inspired by her childhood in Asia,

memories from her travels and design explorations.
