I heard you on the wireless back in '82... lying awake in bed and tuning in on you... That voice. So many tunes. RIP.

Asked for a quote on the Coutts/Farage row @geraldratner quips: “If I had £100 for every time I’ve seen people say some corporate decision is a ‘Gerald Ratner moment’, I could open a Coutts account.”

Persuading Peter Day to spend a day at Cisco in 2007, and the resulting World Service programme, was a career high for me. Very sad to hear he's no longer with us.
A sad loss. A great business broadcaster.

It’s tragic that Silicon Valley Bank could lose 80%+ of its value in a single day. But what’s crazy is that the financial collapse was largely driven by a communication collapse. Their storyline unraveled and their messaging went off the rails, in 4 big ways. (continued below)
I feel bad for Silicon Valley Bank right now. They have been the biggest capital partner to founders, employees, and investors over the last decade and they’re being completely turned on by all of them. If SVB goes under it would be detrimental to the startup community

How could I possibly not share this? (Props @chloetravers )
If a medieval French vagina could speak, what would it say? We actually have the answer to this. Allow us to tell you the tale of The Knight Who Could Make Cunts Speak.

This will be fun. Soon, in line with costly signalling theory, all formal and polite communications will need to be laced with profanities, to prove that we are not using ChatGPT. "Dear Fat Bastard, I am writing to apply for the dope fucking job you advertised...."
