The Agile Pubcast

From The Channings, Bristol. Happy 2024!! Geoff and Paul met up with Nigel to bring the new year in with a pint and a chat about the year ahead. The three lads talked about how companies have changed post-COVID and some of the strange decisions many orgs are making on cutting roles and jobs. Is this the end of "agile" roles as we see them?

From The Hatherley, Cheltenham, UK. Our final pubcast of the year! All about rituals.. or are they traditions? Make sure you stay to the end for the special Christmas message...

From Deus Ex Machina, Boscombe UK. The name of this pub took us on another meandering conversation into the realms of possibilities with an AI-related future and how our role as humans may need to adapt into a creating more people-centric (or even planet-centric) processes. Most of Paul's AI knowledge is based on the Terminator film franchise, which Geoff hasn't seen (no surprises there!!)

From The Long Bar, Bristol. It's been a long time since our last episode, but Geoff and Paul are back! Taking a short break in our busy schedules brought us together for a catch up in Bristol, where we discussed everything from karaoke singing to kanban training! We hope you enjoy the episode, and we hope to get back to a more frequent recording schedule!"I’m not the pheasant plucker, I’m the pheasant plucker’s son. I’m only plucking pheasants ’til the pheasant plucker comes."(This rhyme was first published in 1899 and should be recited with care and not in front of children.)

Are you superstitious? Do you believe in ‘luck’? In this episode, Paul shares his excitement about an upcoming football match for his favourite team and whether his superstitions about the game are a good or bad thing. The conversation moves onto being “lucky” and how an agile approach could quickly proves or disprove a lucky occurrence. Enjoy!The Secret of Luck - Derren Brownhttps://youtu.be/RuRGzZAk7S4
