The Business Show which was broadcast live on Marlow FM 97.5 on 21st Jan 2021 is now available here, with copyright material such as the news, adverts and music edited out.

My guests on this show were Jay Blake and Rai Richardson.  You can connect with them via https://www.linkedin.com/in/jayblakemarlow/ and https://www.linkedin.com/in/raimonda/ respectively if you want to talk to either of them about their day job, or indeed about today’s show.

Phil Spector is a controversial character, but despite that today's opening music The Crystals with Da Doo Ron Ron, which you can see and hear at https://youtu.be/L0dikX80Ed8 - don’t forget to come back to the podcast after you’ve watched it!

I first talk to Jay about his business, My Digital Village, details of which you can find at https://mydigitalvillage.co.uk/ - go there to see the graphics we talk about, as well as for a general look around!.  I then chat with Rai about her business, https://force4events.co.uk/.

A Million Dreams from The Greatest Showman was Rai’s choice of music.  Well, not actually hers – you’ll have to listen to find out what I mean by that.  You can hear it at https://youtu.be/pSQk-4fddDI .

The story at https://techcrunch.com/2020/04/18/clubhouse-app-chat-rooms/ kicked off our conversation about Clubhouse, the new(ish) audio app which is sort of a cross between talk radio and a huge WhatsApp group!  Listen in to find out more.

Jay’s music choice was Fight Song by Rachel Platten – you can hear it at https://youtu.be/xo1VInw-SKc .

The conversation about winter walks which Rai’s find at https://www.getreading.co.uk/whats-on/family-kids-news/best-wintry-walks-berkshire-weekend-19618440 started off wasn’t really about winter walks, it was about the mental health of both solopreneurs and he employed.

Our final business conversation starts by looking at the petition at https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/567747 which you may (or may not!) want to sign – spoiler alert – we all thought it a good idea.

I close the show with another Phil Spector influenced track, Be My Baby by The Ronettes – you can hear it at https://youtu.be/jSPpbOGnFgk.

I hope you enjoy the show!
