I discuss the important topic of Instagram addiction with my sister as I quit the app, again, after only 6 days this time. Cleo and I have weaned ourselves off social media over the years and she has read a lot of books on the behind the scenes of social media companies and the effects on us.

12. Marcel Altenburg - from military to marathons, bomb threats, flood response, deviance, crowd science, risk, control rooms.

Marcel, who is Senior Lecturer in Crowd Science at Manchester Metropolitan University is a friend, colleague and teacher, whom I met when studying the MSc in Crowd Safety and Risk Analysis. There were many routes this episode could have gone down has I had so many questions to ask. What I value about Marcel is his exceptionally unique perspective and outlook on life and situations, always challenging me to see things differently. This approach has aided him in developing unique solutions to challenges at the major marathons he works on across the globe. In this discussion, he shares his experience of responding to a bomb threat at one of the marathons he worked on, demonstrating the importance of training, experience and self awareness when working in a control room. We discuss an important event in his military career, his journey to crowd science, deviant behaviour in audiences and the importance of working as a team.

11. John Dundas - spectrum management for major events, code words, protocol and interoperability

John Dundas, a Radio and Spectrum Manager for major events, provides insight into the world of spectrum management and how this work underpins Command, Control and Communications, sharing how his unique background taught him problem solving. I learn just how much work goes into spectrum planning and how events cannot operate without good strategies. Learn how this is key to interoperability, what we can learn from Manchester Arena attack and Astroworld, and the critical importance of the big red button. We discuss the debated use of code words and key protocol tips for operating a radio. I have always been amazed by John’s breadth and dept of experience and hope you will enjoy this episode as much as I did.
