Why Nigel Farage Recruits Tories
By Russ Jackson
Dr Russ Jackson is one of the deepest thinkers currently posting on social media. This is an abridged podcast version with some interventions by myself of a post on X this week.
It examines an interview by Nigel Farage with the BBC‘s Nick Robinson.
Dr Jackson points out that the leader of the Reform party has to deal with an awkward fact. He had declared the Conservative Party “dead” (and not to be trusted). Yet party is composed almost entirely of former @Conservatives, including himself…

4 min - My System: A new way of teaching chess
Send us Fan Mail
I hesitate to explain my approach to teaching Chess. It is a fact universally recognised among close friends that I am not the strongest Chess player on Buzzsprout. Indeed, I am not the strongest Chess player in my circle of friends.
Nevertheless, I have found myself introducing the game to pre teenage members of my tennis club.
I find it a quite rewarding experience. Maybe it has been possible for me to draw on many years working with post-graduate business students…

4 min - The Free Ocean effect: Will it appear in next year's dictionaries?
Send us Fan Mail
The free ocean effect was generated by prescriptive text as a title for my next podcast. Returning to the original note, I was puzzled at first.
Because nothing I was working on dealt with a free ocean effect.
But when I retraced the note I had made I realised that the prescriptive text had translated something quite out of context from its original intention.

4 min - Stop the singing
Send us Fan Mail
These are the lyrics I wrote recently to be turned into music. The history is quite interesting, and maybe I’ll make a podcast about it origins, if it becomes a hit.
Stop the singing
Stop the people having fun
With music they are bringing.
Stop them basking in the sun
Stop all the singing
The Grinch has crept back into town
And with him fear he’s bringing.
Dirty business! And he’s bound
To stop the singing …

About TudoRama
From the publisher's feed
TudoRama explores the nature and practice of creativity in the arts, sciences, politics and above all in everyday life. Tudor Rickards is Emeritus Professor of Creativity and Organizational Change at…
the University of Manchester. Tudor studied chemistry and radiation chemistry at The University of Wales at Cardiff. Following post-doctoral research at New York Medical College, he returned to the UK to work in technical management before joining Manchester Business School. He has published numerous books and articles on creativity, sporting management and leadership, as well as fictional works involving the mythical University of Urmston. He has been influential in the development of creativity-related projects in Europe, including the European Association for Creativity and Innovation (EACI), and was co-founder (with Susan Moger) of the journal Creativity and Innovation Management. He is also author of detective stories centred around the fictional University of Urmston, and a nearby chess club which houses a top-secret government surveillance operation. His recent switch to podcasting reaches out to a wider general audience interested in current affairs, and the processes of creativity previously described in his lectures, blogposts, and textbooks.
