#33 - James Edwards - CEO & Co-Founder of PetCircle:

James Edwards - Pet Circle - Special Episode $1 Billion Dollars, that was the valuation of PetCircle [https://www.petcircle.com.au/] in 2023. $1 Billion and climbing, I should say. James Edwards [linkedin.com/in/jamesroyedwards] began the business with Mike Frizell [https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-frizell-3763b44/] in 2011, and never looked back. Sleepless nights, lugging 20kg bags of dog food, riding a bike to work and coding all night... it wasn't glamorous. This isn't the tale of a martyr though, James is one of the coolest founders on the planet. My intro can't do him (nor PetCircle) justice. Expect to learn * The effects of sleeping 3 hours per night for a sustained period of time. * Why the start-up world is cool, but they can still neg you, when they can't quite label you. * What to do in Chapter 2 of life. ... and much more. One of the ways I've been able to become a Top Ranked show so quickly, is by understanding the data behind my audience. For that, I'd like to say all thanks to Edge Red [https://www.edgered.com.au/] - my analytics heroes.

#32 - Threading The Future Of Fashion: Ottway The Label

The Making of Ottway In 2019, Neri & Manu stumbled on an abandoned 50-seater bus, in the middle of the forest in the Otway Ranges, now they've turned that bus, into a luxury off-grid accommodation with its own mezzanine level. This story isn't about renovation or living off-the-grid though, it's about Neri and Manu - the creative masterminds behind the vintage sustainable clothing brand 'Ottway The Label'. Clothing used to be something we cared about, it held a memory of a party or place in time. Then fast-fashion came along and in the midst of destroying our planet, began to destroy out attachment to what we wear. Ottway is tackling that, stitch by stitch, and it might just be the coolest brand in Australia, if not the world. On the verge of taking the US by storm, we speak to them and the world they have created.
