Cool Beans Pod Episode #31 - Pedro Maçana (Co-Founder of Wayz)

From Porto to Europe — building a sneaker brand with purpose 👟🇵🇹 On this episode, we sit down with Pedro Maçana, co-founder of Wayz (alongside Daniel Gonçalves), the Portuguese sneaker brand born in 2019 with a bold mission: 100% designed and crafted in Portugal. What started as a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo quickly turned into a movement — with their first pairs shipped by the end of 2019 and a physical store opening in Bonfim just months later. 🚀 But this isn’t just about sneakers… Wayz is built on a deeper belief: that brands should take responsibility for people + planet 🌍♻️ Pedro gets real about: 💥 What ethical branding actually means 💥 The role of leather in responsible production 💥 Working with local Portuguese suppliers 💥 Scaling across Portugal → Europe without losing purpose It’s a conversation about building something that lasts — not just products, but impact. 👉 Walk your way.

Cool Beans Pod Episode #30 - Prof. Alexandre Quintanilha

🎙️ Cool Beans Pod — Episode Spotlight Professor Alexandre Quintanilha In this episode of Cool Beans, Gary chats with Professor Alexandre Quintanilha — one of Portugal’s most respected scientists and thinkers — about curiosity, education, risk, and how ideas travel from classrooms into real life. Alexandre began his academic journey studying Theoretical Physics at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, before completing a PhD in Physics in Europe. He later moved into biophysics and molecular biology, spending almost 20 years at UC Berkeley and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in the United States. 🇿🇦➡️🇺🇸➡️🇵🇹 Returning to Porto, he helped shape modern Portuguese science by founding and leading major research institutions, including the Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (IBMC), and playing a key role in creating i3S, now the country’s largest health‑science research centre. 🧬 His work focuses on oxidative stress, ageing, and how humans understand risk, and he is the author and co‑author of several scientific books and more than 100 peer‑reviewed papers. Alongside research, he has always been passionate about education, the public understanding of science, and ethical decision‑making. Alexandre is currently Professor Emeritus at the University of Porto and remains actively involved with i3S, science policy, and public debate. Grab a coffee — this one’s proper cool beans. ☕🫘

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
