Summary

Inside the rituals of two happy businesses. Over the last couple of months a few people have come up to me to tell me stories about things their companies do.

Firstly Andy Puleston - a Radio 1 alumni - came up to me and chatted to me about some of the things they did during the Andy Parfitt reinvention. Pizza meetings, heroic leaving speeches and lots of private offices filled with eclectic music and chat. I've let this run on because I found it fascinating. Ask me one time how I applied to get a job at Radio 1. Had an interview with Andy Parfitt and everything. Ah well.

Secondly we talk to Claudia Newman - Head of New Business at Young and Rubicon. She tells me about Crisp Thursday and their Start the Week meeting. I loved this chat.

0:37.2	Which is amazing right but the prospect of writing 80,000 words of amazingness is daunting and every weekend I've prioritised
0:45.3	that over this and to be honest someone made a catty comment that I couldn't do my
0:50.3	job and the podcast so I've been very focused on making sure that all the
0:54.2	cats didn't win. Those cats man, they are so catty. So hang on, there's a better way of me sharing
1:00.2	that news. So I've got a book coming out in early 2018 about fixing
1:04.0	work and I know that feels like miles away but I need to submit 25,000 words
1:09.5	before you finish your Easter eggs and I'm sending out an SOS right now for people to send me some
1:14.2	Adderall to get it done.
1:16.2	Despite the break and demands on me, West Wheat here.
1:18.6	Over the next few episodes I'm going to be sharing some ways to improve work and I really
1:24.0	really want to hear your stories and your experiences.
1:28.0	Maybe go into the book.
1:29.0	I could maybe make you a sort of one out of 10 degree of fame. The good news is I've got loads of
1:36.0	amazing episodes recorded so we're good to go. Now today's episode was
1:40.0	inspired by a chat with a chap that you're going to hear from called Andy Paulson.
