Welcome to The 232 Degrees Podcast and we’re stoked to be back for Season 2.

In this episode, we dive into the world of sport science and the wonderful book from Alex Hutchison. This book presents the complex world of brain and body, and how it impacts us not just in sport, but also our everyday lives. How far can you really go? How does your body deal with thirst, heat and fuel? We totally geeked out and burst through our usual podcast length (sorry!) We hope you enjoy it.

Welcome to The 232 Degrees Podcast and we’re stoked to be back for Season 2.

In this episode, we explore sustainability with Tim Loftus and how the concepts of The Good Ancestor translate into the world of business. We were also able to record in sound studio of our wonderful central library Tūranga; one of the new “cathedrals” that have been developed post-earthquake in Ōtautahi-Christchurch. Tim brings a refreshing perspective to business and marketing, and we manage to convince him to give fiction a chance…

Welcome to The 232 Degrees Podcast and we’re stoked to be back for Season 2.

We love books and reading, and in this episode we unpack Think Again by Adam Grant. This book is really important, and is full of things that you can use to catch yourself falling into the most common thinking traps. And another very accessible book opening up the world of academic research to all of us. We discuss thinking, rethinking and how debates should be a dance, not a war. We hope you enjoy it!

Welcome to The 232 Degrees Podcast and we’re stoked to be back for Season 2.

We love books and reading, and in this episode we unpack Uncomfortable Conversations With a Black Man by Emmanuel Acho.

This is a powerful read, and we step into some uncomfortable convo as Emmanuel encourages us to do. He wrote this book in around 8 weeks - amazing. 

We discuss privilege, unconscious bias and the power of individual action. This was hard, and important.

We love books and reading, and in this episode we unpack A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson. In a bit of a homage to the great writer, we talk the magic of travel books, ‘all the gear and no idea’ and time travel. Strap on the hiking boots, we’re off on a wander…

We love books and reading, and you need to find books to fill that need!

In this episode Seán becomes roving reporter to visit the Avonhead Book Fair, hosted by St Christophers Church in his hometown Ōtautahi-Christchurch, New Zealand.

What is the magic of a book fair? Why do people visit? What are people looking for? There were some magic cross-generation conversations.
