    The Gut Doctor: “We’ve Been Getting Food Completely Wrong”

    Professor Tim Spector is one of the most cited scientists in the world and a leading expert in gut health, nutrition, and the microbiome. In this conversation, we break down why much of what we’ve been told about food is wrong - from calories and dieting, to why two people can eat the same meal and have completely different biological responses. We talk about the connection between the gut and the brain, how your mood and energy might be more shaped by what you eat than we've ever been taught, and why habits like flossing could even have an enormous impact on your risk of dementia. Tim also explains how modern food systems are designed to keep us hooked, why willpower isn’t the issue, and what simple changes can actually make a difference. This is a conversation about how your body really works - and what you can do about it.

    I ran away… then won The Apprentice - Karishma Vijay

    Karishma Vijay had £7 left, a collapsing business, family pressure, and everything to prove.

In her first and only major podcast interview since the win, Karishma opens up about anger, ambition, rejection, resilience, beauty standards, Lord Sugar, and the life she refused to accept.

  3. The Biggest Killer of Men Under 50 - Dr Susie Bennett

    APR 12

    The Biggest Killer of Men Under 50 - Dr Susie Bennett

    Dr Susie Bennett researches suicide in men at Glasgow University. She is one of the world's leading experts on the topic. In this episode, I wanted to understand why the biggest killer of men under 50 is still themselves. This isn’t a conversation about empty slogans or easy answers. We get into what suicidal pain actually feels like, why “men need to talk” often isn’t enough, and how isolation, hopelessness and a lack of real support can build over time. We also talk about community, male friendship, and why spaces where men feel they belong might matter more than we realise. This isn't a light-hearted conversation, but it's an honest one, about something we’re still not getting right.

    The Recipe for Success: Food Review Club’s Matt Binge

    Matt Binge is the founder of Food Review Club - a platform he's built to become one the UK's most popular food critics, with millions of followers, hundreds of millions of views, and a relentless output of content. On the surface, it’s food reviews. Travelling the country, finding hidden gems, eating great meals. But it was never just about the food. In this conversation, we get into what really drives Matt. The reality of building something from nothing, the pressure of constant content, and the chaos that can come with filming in public. We also go deeper. Matt opens up about a childhood he describes as chaos, how that shaped his mindset, and the fuel that still drives him today. We talk about anger, resilience, fatherhood, and why success now looks very different. This is a conversation about identity, drive, and building a life on your own terms.

    “I Played Rugby for England… and Felt Like a Fraud”

    Andy Long is a former England international rugby player. He captained England under 19s and 21s, captaining and playing with the likes of Jonny Wilkinson, Lewis Moody and Ben Cohen. He is now a performance coach, specialising in mindset and self-awareness. In this episode, Andy talks about finding his dad dying at just 10 years old, the impact that had on his life, and the drive that took him all the way to his England debut at Twickenham 10 years later, aged just 20. He opens up about the pressure of elite sport, feeling like a fraud despite reaching the top, and how those experiences shaped the work he does today helping others perform at their best. We also talk about his close friendship with Alex Gibson, who is living with motor neurone disease, the reality of that diagnosis, and why Andy is taking on the Marathon des Sables in support of Challenging MND. This is a conversation about resilience, perspective, and making the most of the time you have.

    From “Nobody” to Ice Swimming World Champion - John Myatt

    John Myatt is an ice swimming world champion, English Channel swimmer, and extreme endurance athlete who went from a chaotic, violent childhood in Gloucester to achieving things very few humans on earth ever will. He’s: - An Ice Swimming World Champion - One of a small number of people on the planet to complete an official Ice Mile - A two-way English Channel swimmer, and also part of the first winter English Channel Relay - One half of the first-ever 2-man, 2-way English Channel swim (a world-first achievement) - A Guinness World Record holder - An endurance athlete who has completed extreme challenges including 24-mile continuous swim formats, multi-hour cold exposure swims, and ultra-distance open water events But that’s only half the story. While living in a home marked by violence, fear, and instability, swimming became his escape. A scholarship gave him a shot. Then he walked away from it all. For over 20 years. At nearly 40, feeling lost, drinking heavily, and convinced he’d achieved nothing… he decided to start again. What followed was a journey into some of the most extreme environments on earth. Freezing water, hypothermia, mental battles, and ultimately… becoming a world champion. This is a conversation about trauma and resilience. Discipline and obsession. How environments shapes identities and what’s possible when you decide to change your life.

    "The Food Industry is Following Big Tobacco's Playbook" - Jonathan Wolf, CEO of ZOE

    Jonathan Wolf is the co-founder and CEO of ZOE, a company using large-scale science to understand how food affects our health and the trillions of microbes living in our gut. In this conversation, Jonathan explains the emerging science of the microbiome, why two people can eat the same food and have completely different responses, and why ultra-processed foods may be driving the modern health crisis. He also argues that some major food companies have followed a playbook similar to the tobacco industry in shaping public understanding of nutrition - lying to us and the government for their own financial gain. Before building ZOE with scientist Professor Tim Spector, Jonathan worked at the ad-tech company Criteo, helping to scale the business from a startup into a NASDAQ-listed company with more than $1 billion in revenue. ===== Interviews that might just change your life.
