In this episode of Who’s Elvis Round Here?, Chris Baréz-Brown sits down with long-time friend, creative leader, and Multiply founder Dr. Mark Fowlestone for a rich conversation about creativity, business, humanity, and the energy that brings people to life.

episode The AI mistake no one saw coming artwork

The AI mistake no one saw coming

What happens when you introduce AI to “help” your people… and they all go on sick leave? In this episode of Who’s Elvis Around Here?, Chris sits down with leadership expert Joe Hildebrand to explore the human side of AI — and why so many organisations are getting it wrong. As AI rapidly reshapes the workplace, leaders are facing a critical choice: 👉 Use AI purely for efficiency, cost-cutting, and productivity 👉 Or use it to unlock human potential, creativity, and growth Joe shares real-world stories (including one AI rollout that completely backfired), powerful leadership frameworks, and why psychological safety, storytelling, and co-creation are more important than ever. This conversation dives into: - Why removing “mundane work” can actually harm employees - The hidden stress AI can create in teams - The “Red Pill vs Blue Pill” decision every leader faces - How to balance structure and freedom in modern leadership - Why the biggest risk right now is losing the human connection If you’re a leader, founder, or simply navigating change in the age of AI — this episode will challenge how you think about work, people, and the future.

Painted Nails. Broken Rules.

What if changing masculinity… started with something as simple as painted nails? In this episode of Who’s Elvis Around Here?, Chris sits down with author, entrepreneur, and rule-breaker Sam Conniff for a surprising, thought-provoking conversation about identity, culture, and the hidden rules we all live by.

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.
