episode EP 34: Ubuntu, Un-Managing and the Ultra Wealthy cover

EP 34: Ubuntu, Un-Managing and the Ultra Wealthy

After several weeks of beating up the billionaires, Veronica decides it’s finally time to ask if they really are so bad? Without a beat, Betty decides where she stands (with no wiggle room) but Veronica’s not so sure. And is Betty actually really such a socialist? Plus: Could the spirit of ubuntu be the saving grace for AI? Can anything get done in China with so many egos in the room? And does Jensen Huang have the right idea about managing people and organisations? Betty really (really) hopes so. KEEPING US HONEST: The actual definition of our word for the week means “to be absorbed, included or categorised as part of a larger whole”. But we didn’t want to ruin Betty’s moment so we thought we’d fact check ourselves here. Special thanks to our sound engineer, Ted Loukes [https://aten.co.za/] for making us sound so much better than we actually do. Support the pod: Share this episode with a friend.

episode EP 33: Dresses, Dodgy Diplomacy and Defying Death cover

EP 33: Dresses, Dodgy Diplomacy and Defying Death

This week, Betty opens up a debate on something she has long been obsessed with: longevity biohacking. Do we really want to live forever? And what, Veronica asks, is wrong with letting the tech billionaires pursue it? Couldn’t the world benefit from their god complex? Plus: The Met Gala shines a spotlight on the growing backlash against tech billionaires. Or, you know, just billionaires in general. Is Epstein’s supposed suicide note not eerily similar to certain “other” truth posts. And will China’s no-tariff gift to Africa turn out to be, instead, a golden cage? EXTRA. EXTRA. READ ALL ABOUT IT.: Interested in reading the full Mail and Guardian article that Betty was talking about in our chat about China and zero tariffs, you can find it here [https://mg.co.za/thought-leader/opinion/2026-05-06-chinas-zero-tariff-offer-to-africa-windfall-or-trojan-horse/].

EP 32: Cults, Conspiracies and Catching up to AI

Heather Baker [https://www.linkedin.com/in/realonesomebody/], founder of The AI Edit [https://www.theaiedit.ai/] and Humans in the Loop [https://www.thehumansintheloop.ai/], joins Betty and Veronica in studio to discuss what, if anything, can be done about AI. Betty learns some hard lessons about what not to do (spoiler alert: it’s too late!) and Anthropic scores another point. IYKYK. Plus: Has the global energy race levelled up and could it explain, well, everything? Betty has had enough of the unrealistic expectations placed on gay men and straight women (coming from the most unexpected sources). Trump makes another appearance.. on passports. And Veronica plugs another superb podcast that’s well worth a listen. EXTRA. EXTRA.

EP 31: Tiger, Trillionaires and Talking About Money

Mike Sharman [https://www.instagram.com/mikesharman/] joins Betty and Veronica in studio today for another “man’s opinion” segment. What starts as a curious question about the laws of attraction turns into a very honest conversation about the role of money in relationships as ardent feminist Betty, in a moment of true vulnerability, admits, well, she needs a man.  Plus: Betty shares the shocking truth about a growing online enterprise in the wake of the horrendous Gisele Pelicot case. Veronica sympathises with Tiger Woods. And have billionaires been really unhappy this whole time? Shed a tear with us in this week’s episode of NotJustOneThing.

episode EP 30: Change, Choice and Chief Country Officers cover

EP 30: Change, Choice and Chief Country Officers

A lot of the language emerging from the Trump administration revolves around actions being taking to "make things profitable" but, when it comes to running a country, is that what really matters? Is running a business and running a country the same thing? Reggie, with decades of experience in the private and public sector, joins Betty and Veronica in studio to discuss. Plus: Are we about to experience yet another global slingshot moment, hurling us to a better place? Betty sure hopes so. Is the Vance effect real? And did the UK government do the right thing declining Kanye West’s visa?  Support the pod: Share this episode with a friend. Subscribe so you never miss one.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
