    #338. UK’s Most Successful Rave Promoters ‘Slammin Vinyl‘- Grant Smith & Paul Rooney

    Paul Rooney and Grant Smith open up about a life built on risk, resilience, and relentless graft - from teenage beginnings in the underground music scene to becoming pioneers of the UK rave and events industry. Starting out young, they threw themselves into record production, launched their own label, and quickly learned hard lessons after being burned by shady distributors. As the rave scene exploded, they evolved with it - moving from pressing vinyl and selling records directly to shops, to promoting club nights, running record stores, and staging major events at iconic venues like Bagley’s, Brixton Academy, Alexandra Palace, and the Sanctuary. But behind the success was constant pressure - financial gambles, volatile crowds, industry setbacks, and moments where one bad call could wipe everything out. From building brands like Dreamscape and One Nation to navigating the shift from underground raves to large-scale festivals, they reflect on a journey shaped by reinvention, risk-taking, and a genuine love for bringing people together. Through it all, their long-standing partnership has remained at the heart of everything - built on trust, instinct, and decades of surviving the highs and lows of the events world side by side. This is the eventful life of Paul Rooney and Grant Smith.

    FOUNDER #19. £4 Billion Exit for British Entrepreneur - Richard Harpin

    Richard Harpin reflects on the journey of building HomeServe from a struggling startup into a multi-billion-pound business - a story shaped by risk, resilience, and relentless belief. From nearly going bust in the early days to transforming a simple plumbing emergency service into a global home assistance giant, he opens up about the pressure, pivots, and hard-won decisions that defined the ride. He shares the reality behind scaling a company over three decades - making painful mistakes, giving away equity to survive, almost running out of money more than once, and learning when to back people better than himself. From cracking the UK market to navigating the brutal lessons of France, Australia, and America, Richard reveals what it really takes to build internationally, lead through uncertainty, and keep growing without losing focus. But this isn’t just a story about money. He speaks honestly about the sacrifices behind success - the family time missed, the emotional weight of leadership, and the lessons that only come from building something the hard way. He also reflects on life after the HomeServe sale, why wealth never became the end goal, and why he’s now focused on backing the next generation of entrepreneurs. This is an insightful look at what it really takes to build at scale, survive the setbacks, and create lasting success. This is the eventful life of Richard Harpin.

    #335. - Lewis Moody EXCLUSIVE - England World Cup Winner Fighting Motor Neurone Disease

    Lewis Moody opens up about life after rugby, reflecting on the highs of captaining England to World Cup glory and the brutal physical and mental toll the sport took behind the scenes. From relentless injuries to the pressure of leading a national team, he shares how discipline, resilience and identity shaped both his playing career and the transition that followed. He speaks about the reality of elite sport - the constant pain, the sacrifices away from family, and the struggle many athletes face when the career that defined them suddenly ends. Moody discusses rebuilding purpose after retirement, channeling the same drive that fueled his rugby career into business, media and charity work, while learning to adapt his competitive mindset to life beyond the pitch. Fiercely committed and deeply reflective, Lewis reveals how leadership, adversity and accountability forged the person he is today - and why the lessons from rugby continue to shape everything he does. He also speaks openly about his Motor Neurone Disease (MND) diagnosis, sharing how the progressive condition has changed daily life while highlighting the resilience and mindset he’s using to face it - focusing on staying positive, adapting to the challenges, and continuing to support awareness for MND within the rugby community. This is the eventful life of Lewis Moody. https://uk.emma-live.com/LewisMoodyDinner All Enquiries - Hello@DodgeWoodall.com Website: DodgeWoodall.com YouTube: Dodge Woodall Facebook: Dodge Woodall Instagram: @Dodge.Woodall TikTok: @DodgeWoodall LinkedIn: Dodge Woodall Hosted on Acast.
