The Action Catalyst · The Seven Rules of Trust, with Jimmy Wales | (Leadership, Internet, Entrepreneurship, Media) · 3 Feb 2026 podcast

Trust between different equals in the company and things like that.

It's fundamental to relationship.

And in business, it's fundamental to actually getting things done.

Where are you calling in from today?

I live in London now since 2010.

So 15 years, 16 years.

I mean, I'm trying not to, but the children tease me if I say zebra instead of zebra and that sort of thing.

Oh, I definitely had a Southern accent.

Yeah, as a kid.

I lost it as a teenager, I would say.

I went to a school where... Huntsville's a funny place.

Huntsville grew from about 20,000 people in 1960 to about 200,000 in 1980.

So it was a real boomtown.

When I got to high school, most of the kids didn't have a Southern accent, so I lost it then.

But my wife says I sound like Bill Clinton when I'm on the phone to my mom, so...

That's great.

I love that.

I mean, my mom bought it when I was three, as I understand.

I mean, I don't remember because I was three.

But as soon as I learned to read, probably, which was I was four when I started reading, but probably, you know, five, six, because the world book was actually very interesting.
