Listen While You Browse Table of Contents About This Episode Welcome to the 100th episode of #KBNRS! Yes, I know, I can't quite believe it myself, yet here we are 4 years since the first episode celebrating number 100. We've had some amazing guests (and hopefully some great solo episodes) over the years, and I wanted to share this celebration with a really good guest - which is why I was delighted to be able to bring back a guest from series 2, podcast expert Gary Jones, so we could talk all things podcasting and a whole lot more. And oh my goodness did we have a great chat! Naturally we took dive into the world of podcasting and how to make it successful. From starting with just a phone to upgrading to fancy equipment, Gary shares tips on how to create consistent and valuable content. We also explored what it takes to create a good podcast, a good story, a strong narrative for your listeners, regardless of what sort of podcast you are creating. To better understand this, Gary discussed the storytelling techniques used in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and how they can be applied to podcasting, including a look at including criticism of Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumania's disjointed storyline, while exploring how individual perspective and consistent themes can help ensure quality and success in your podcast. Finally Gary and I discussed approaches to podcast creation, editing, and marketing.

Listen While You Browse Table of Contents About This Episode On this episode we take a dive into the topic of mindsets. We discuss how our fixed or growth mindset can greatly impact our personal, professional, and social lives. We break down the difference between the two types of mindsets and give examples of thinking patterns for each. We note that we are not purely fixed or growth mindset individuals but a complex blend of both. The highlight of the episode is the power of the word "yet" and how it can help us shift from a fixed to a growth mindset. And we encourage the audience to ask themselves questions, even in the face of confusion and frustration, and to consider new possibilities. Whether you identify with a growth or fixed mindset, this episode provides actionable ways to cultivate a growth mindset and continue to grow as individuals.

Listen While You Browse Table of Contents About This Episode Are You Taking Responsibility for Your Life? Do you often find yourself blaming external factors for your situation? Do you believe that everything happens for a reason, or do you think that sometimes things just happen without purpose? In this episode the concept of cause and effect, fault, and responsibility are explored, with the listener encouraged to focus on taking responsibility for their lives. While it may not always be easy, taking ownership of our actions and reactions can have a significant impact on the outcomes we experience. By shifting our focus from the reasons behind our circumstances to the results we want to achieve, we can create a more fulfilling life. It's important to note that what has happened in the past is not necessarily our fault, but what happens next is our responsibility. We always have a choice in how we respond to a situation, and even in the most difficult circumstances, we can choose to react in a way that will help us achieve positive results. So, are you taking responsibility for your life? Are you focusing on the results you want to achieve, or are you dwelling on the reasons why things haven't worked out? Remember, our internal search engine is programmed to find what we're looking for, so let's filter out the negative and focus on positive outcomes like success, happiness, and good health. It's time to be at cause in our lives, rather than being at the effect of everything that happens to us. That's what we explore in this episode.

Listen While You Browse Other Episodes Table of Contents About This Episode My guests this week are The Zebecks, one of the most exciting up and coming bands on the Glasgow underground scene. They have played the likes of King Tut's Wah Wah Hut, Nice 'n' Sleazy, Broadcast and more, and they have supported many acts including Scouting For Girls, The Big Pink, Callum Bowie and more. Having been honing their craft live and in the studio, and releasing a couple of demo EPs over the past couple of years, they launch their first fully-produced single Breakthrough on all the major streaming platforms today (7th April 2023), which is a definite notable milestone on their solid and inspiring journey. I first met them when we were both performing for a charity fundraiser back in 2019, and it's been very interesting watching them grow and develop. Which is why I was delighted when we were able to arrange our calendars so that finally we could make this episode happen! Join me Dan, Max, and Aiden from The Zebecks (sadly technical issues prevented Hayden from joining us this time round - next time!) as we explore where their name came from, what drives them to continue to create and evolve, how they managed to grab a headline spot so early in their career, what it meant personally to the to play King Tut's, what's in store for the future, and we took a look at their new single. As always, you can listen to this episode via the audio above, or if you prefer to watch us having a chat then there’s the video version of it below. Breakthrough - New Single The Zebecks set out to create a dynamic, upbeat post-punk track that is first and foremost Scottish and portrays their unique, inspired writing style. Whilst recording at Castle of Doom, producer Jamie Holmes stated his excitement that they are bringing back the early 2000s Scottish Indie sound with modern flair. After recording, they created an artistic vision to compliment the music. They worked with three independent Scottish creators to develop this vision: Music Video – MET Film School student Leon Miele created a psychedelic fever- dream story set in the Grosvenor Picture Theatre in Glasgow. The storyline follows concepts of internal struggles, finding a voice, and awakening, based on the song’s lyrics. Artwork – The artwork was created by Wolfalanis. The Zebecks loved her vibrant and constantly evolving styles so met for an afternoon to start a collaboration. She helped them to realise their vision and this proceeded to inspire the photoshoot that followed. Photography – The Zebecks entered Cove One Studio in the Southside of Glasgow with photographer Angus McLennan, a frequent collaborator with the band. Gus ran with their idea and helped form a visual of the band members which has tied the elements of the single release together. The single itself, Breakthrough, was released across the major streaming platforms on 7th April 2023, and you can find it on Apple Music, Amazon Music, and Spotify.

Listen While You Browse Table of Contents About This Episode What does success mean for you? What does success look like? How will you know when you are successful? Fairly common questions in the world of personal or even professional development. We are often encouraged to Think Big, to create grand visions, and to define success as being the achievement of our life-long goals. Which are all very nice, but unfortunately sets us up for disappointment and set-back. There is another way! And that is what we explore in this episode.

Listen While You Browse Table of Contents About This Episode In this episode, we explore the conscious, unconscious and intuition. We discuss the conscious mind, which is our awareness and is responsible for analytical and logical thinking. It can only handle about seven chunks of information at once and is relatively slow. We also discuss the unconscious mind which is the deeper, older part of the mind evolved over time and its primary role is to keep us alive. It is driven by emotion and processes information quickly. Lastly, we discuss intuition and how it relates to the conscious and unconscious minds. It is important to remember that our intuition is not infallible and we should take a deeper look at the information before making a decision..

As the owner of a thriving photography business, a popular business podcast, an author and marketeer, he gets involved with a wide range of industries and keeps himself extremely busy! Paul Newton has been a magician for most of his life, ever since his parents bought him a Paul Daniels magic set for his birthday. Magic has been his main career for over 10 years, having stepped away from the corporate world to follow his passion. He had many different jobs in the past, including working in theatres as a technician, and working within sales teams around the country. The last “proper” job Paul had was working for Thomas International, where he helped companies to understand their staff better through the use of psychometric assessments. Understanding people and how they tick has helped Paul produce and design shows all around the world. He uses trickery, stagecraft and blatant cheating to entertain and confuse crowds of people. In his book MentalTheft, he explains how his love of magic and mind reading techniques made him realise that people can be duped into giving away their closest secrets. This can include their passwords, PIN numbers and so many other things that could make personal and business security a massive issue. He now travels the world, in person or via the internet, helping people realise that their world could be so much more secure with just a few tweaks.

About This Episode The first episode of series 4, and we take a look at The Salem With Trials. Yeah, why not start on a light note!

It certainly did him no favours in terms of his confidence, his ability to socialise, and a whole lot more. Until he discovered magic. Join us as we learn how Angus used his new-found love of magic to enable him to develop his confidence and his social skills, and how he learned to live with his autism. We also take a look at Angus's business, how he built and grew it, and where he wants to take it in the future, as well as the people he is helping along the way.

She left school with no “A” Levels, had no idea what to do she - loved maths so tried accountancy. This didn’t work out, so she went out cold calling selling advertising in Building Control Handbooks. Loved the calling, hated the selling. Found out about Credit Control – Calling people, problem solving and maths – Brilliant!? Rachael went on to become a Corporate Credit Control Trainer, training herself into redundancy 4 times. After the 4th time, Rachael decided her motivation was helping small businesses get better, not big businesses get richer. So in 2013 she founded her company helping business owners to get control of their time through reviewing their processes, software and systems.

About This Episode OK, it's perhaps a little bit of a rant this episode, although still one I think will be worth listening to. After listening to it, I'd love to know your take on the topic, too! I'm discussing my take and insights into that old cliche "Everything happens for a reason". I'll share my take on it, why it is true everything does happen for a reason but that is not a helpful phrase to trot out, and how the reality and interpretation is down to each of us individually.
