Enviroserve is a world leader if not the world leader in recycling, repurposing and even reverse manufacturing in the world of e-waste.

We had a chance to sit down and meet the people who make Enviroserve work and then take a hands-on tour of the facility, wow is all I have to say.

This is an informative, educational and even entertaining look at the world of e-waste.

Sit back and enjoy this ride.

Dustin Cherniawski is our guide.  

This is an extended version of the WeWillFixIt show on www.podaholiks.com.

Colin from WeWillFixIt and Dustin from www.enviroserve.org join me to talk about recycling of AC refrigerant gas and more.

I am the host of CreativeMornings in Dubai and this month the theme was SPECTRUM and it literally was a brain spa.

Meet the speaker.

Dr. Upasana Gala is the founder and CEO of Evolve Brain Training, a Neurofeedback-centred institute that focuses on using noninvasive brain training techniques to maximize the brain’s true potential.

Dr. Gala is one of the few women in STEM in the UAE, working on promoting and actioning future-forward technology to help individuals and businesses reassess the way they think and perform.

Her goal is to share her teachings, encourage others to tap into and expand their brain’s capabilities, and dispel any myths surrounding our most complex organ.

Cowboy is bringing crash detection smarts to its e-bikes by the end of this month. It has been beta testing the feature with a thousand users, but it’ll soon be available for free to all Cowboy 2 and Cowboy 3 owners.

Ali Mak and I go back many years, we met in the studios at ARN in Dubai, I was doing talk radio and Ali was on Virgin.

It is funny how we duck and dive with life and Ali has that story to share.

Life lessons from Ali Mak that is what this conversation should be called.

This is a podcast that has the extra bits in it.  The original show is playing on PODAHOLIKS.

Glenn and I are hooked on French car making for all the wrong reasons this week.

And of course, we wonder how Andrew, techtalk, is able to be up for a 7am podcast when he is late for most everything else.

Great conversation and just a lot of informative fun!

It is always a real hoot to get to sit down with Louise Lambert, professor, psychologist, Canadian, author and generally fun person.

We pick up where we left off in our last conversation and in this podcast we explore how to take ideas and turn them into action.

How can we fix our work environments especially since change is all around us.
