Boy, we cover a lot of ground in this episode. First, we answer a common question: if we had to launch our careers again, how would we do it? To be fair, both Charlie and Gemima come up with some good answers for this one - at least, on the surface. Something we realise more and more each week is that AI answers look good on the surface - but does regurgitated good advice still constitute good advice? Martin and I chip in with our own thoughts, of course. Martin is a big advocate (and shining example) of writing consistently, almost obsessively, so that you stay top of mind and on top of your game.On the other hand, I argue that it’s not enough to write - you have to offer something more. Something AI can’t [yet].But that’s all I’ll reveal for now - you’d better listen to the episode for the actual advice.You’ll also need to listen to hear our pick of the entries for the latest Y-Fronts for Songwood Meadows Retirement Village. Despite getting the In-Pod Award for Best Line last time around, I am soundly beaten by at least one of our listeners.Oh, we also dive into the HUGE topic of James Bond films and talk a little bit about biscuits with questionable origin stories.Enjoy, and please do keep sending us your questions and hate mail.Hayden Get full access to BRAVE NEW WORD at www.bravenewwordpodcast.com/subscribe
