  • An Unusual Book About The Workplace. "Holy Sh!t, It's Only... Tuesday?" with Bevo and Paul Rowse

    Check out the new book here: https://www.itsonlytuesday.com.au/


    The Backstory:

    'Holy Sh!t, It's Only... Tuesday?' is a book by Paul Rowse and his eminence, the one and only Joe Wehbe.

    What started as a serious non-fiction book inspired by Paul's multi-decade business and life journey, turned into a fiction book! A satire on the workplace, a comedic story about two cleaning companies.

    Instead of insight and wisdom, the story is full of clueless characters who try (largely in vain) to improve their workplace culture... and their lives.

    It's available to purchase online via Amazon.

  • 295: The Man Who (Almost) Ran The Circumference Of The Globe - With Dom Bullock

    Dom Bullock is Luke Smith's Co-Host of  @withthechiefsrunningpodcas1488  - Dom is an engineer, runner and all-round nice guy. He's been a friend of mine since 2007, and he's run the circumference of the globe.

    Well, almost.

    Enjoy a relaxed, laid back exploration of his journey with Luke, the significance of running in their lives and the impact it's had. This is a great interview, spoiled only by Luke's annoying comments, and a strange boot-shaped drinking glass.

    'I don't know how much I'd run if it wasn't for Strava.'

  • 293: The Psychology Of Activism & A Mysterious Backside Condition

    Activists... can't live without them, but sometimes, living with them makes you ask questions, especially when you feel like an outsider to their cause.

    We took a light-hearted stroll through many different angles to do with speaking up, speaking out and standing up for what's right... as well as the cases when it might be little more than a wonderful distraction from the deep dark misery lurking in the depths of our soul.
    Who knows.
    Also, one of us experiences a mysterious backside condition, so don't miss that....
