  • Always interesting

    Great to have a variety of guests. Helps me understand how the business world works and the real life impacts of decisions made around the world. Presenters always make sure that language is easy to understand and issues are relatable to general public.

  • Used to really enjoy it

    Listened to it every day when Micky was on it - but now so much of the show is political - and not at all balanced. I think the presenters think the Brexit referendum is upcoming and it’s their sole role to stop it. Ten years on it’s tiresome. Rarely get to end of an episode now.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

King of the Hill
Q: How might UAE leaving OPEC affect oil markets in the medium term?
It weakens OPEC's control, potentially increasing competition among producers and contributing to greater price volatility, though longer-term demand growth could still support price stability.
King of the Hill
Q: What is the significance of King Charles' diplomacy in Washington for UK-US business ties?
It reinforces long-standing ties and signals a reinforced alliance, which could stabilize cross-Atlantic trade and reduce political risk for UK businesses operating in the US.
Picking a new Apple
Q: What is the anticipated impact of Apple appointing a hardware-focused CEO on its future product strategy?
Experts suggest that Apple could push even more on hardware-software integration and AI-assisted experiences, with an emphasis on leveraging strengths in devices like iPhone and wearables while exploring how AI and new product categories might fit into Apple's ecosystem.
Mythos vs Reality
Q: What makes Mythos particularly threatening to cybersecurity?
Mythos can find unknown vulnerabilities quickly and execute a full attack chain rapidly, requiring organizations to automate defenses and patch weaknesses across networks.
Pret Sounds
Q: How are manufacturers like Denim Expert adapting to the energy shock?
They are facing higher generator costs and uncertain energy availability, but government support and location within special zones help maintain activity; long-term sustainability remains a concern if subsidies wane.
