She Turned Food Waste Into Kimchi & Won an Award Doing It — Rebecca Ghim | The Third Half

She came to London for a master's degree. She needed a visa to stay. So she pitched a wild idea — turn food waste into kimchi — and accidentally started an award-winning business. In this conversation on the third half, Rebecca Ghim opens up about: Why she started a business just to get a visa — and never expected it to work Growing up in Korea, leaving at 15, and building an empire as an immigrant How her grandmother's zero-waste cooking became the foundation of a brand Rescuing 300kg of vegetable waste in a single night from one supplier The brutal tension between staying true to her values and scaling a business Why she's never spent a single penny on marketing Kimchi tiramisu — and why Italians should probably look away This isn't just a food story. It's about identity, culture, anger, and building something that actually means something. 🥬 Find The Ferm: theferm.net 📱 Instagram: @the.ferm.london 🌍 More from The Third Half: www.thethirdhalf.uk #TheFirm #Kimchi #FoodWaste #Sustainability #TheThirdHalf #FoodEntrepreneur #ZeroWaste

He Stopped Chasing Fame & Built 700K Fans — Bruce Soord | On The Turntable

He wore a high-vis jacket cycling to the office by day and wrote music by night. 25 years later, Bruce Soord is selling out tours worldwide without chasing a record deal. In this conversation, Bruce opens up about: - Writing his solo album Ghosts in the Park alone in hotel rooms on tour - How losing his father to dementia shaped every lyric on the record - The moment his mum — non-verbal for years — suddenly spoke his sister's name - Why stopping chasing success is what made him successful - The difference between writing songs at 25 vs writing them now - What it really feels like to headline shows 25 years after starting from nothing This isn't an interview. It's a proper conversation about music, grief, memory, and what it means to build something real over a lifetime. 🎵 Find Bruce & Ghosts in the Park: brucesword.com 🌍 More from The Third Half: www.thethirdhalf.uk #ThePineappleThief #BruceSoord #GhostsInThePark #TheThirdHalf #musicpodcast

TTH: A Wee Dram Episode 4 - Guest: Gillian Docherty

Three jocks on a Friday afternoon. What could possibly go wrong? That was my genuine warning at the top of this one — and I meant it. Gillian Docherty is Chief Commercial Officer at the University of Strathclyde, Chair of CodeBase, and former CEO of The Data Lab. But what really drew me to this conversation is the story underneath all of that. Twenty-two years at IBM. A recruiter who refused to hang up the phone. A CV written over a weekend for the first time in two decades. And a decision — no package, a four-year-old at home — to walk away and build something from scratch.

TTH Blueprint Episode 19: Michelle Prance

In this conversation, Michelle talks about how her eight-year-old son managed to ground her after what she called a crap day, and in doing so, articulated what financial services is actually for better than most boardrooms ever manage. She walks us through how she got into her career - economics degree, bars and clubs in London, a break that came through a personal recommendation rather than any recruitment agent - and then into the real substance of what good digital banking actually looks like today.
