Last night me and my flatmates went to see the pilot for Dave Gormans’ new BBC show Genius.

I’m a bit of Gorman fan-boy anyway so this is all a bit biased, but it was really funny. If you listened to the BBC radio show of Genius then you will recognise (the voices at least) of a lot of the people presenting their ideas. As usual though Gorman was on-point, witty and bouncing off the audience/guests. Really looking forward to the series, make sure you check it!

There a few samples from the radio show online at the BBC

As i’m sure many of you know – but few of you care haha – the new football season is upon us! Found this a while ago and finally found an appropriate time to share.

You may rather watch this… thanks @555

This truely inspired me, the situation, the subject matter and the speaker.

“Carnegie Mellon Professor Randy Pausch (Oct. 23, 1960 – July 25, 2008) gave his last lecture at the university Sept. 18, 2007, before a packed McConomy Auditorium. In his moving presentation, “Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams,” Pausch talked about his lessons learned and gave advice to students on how to achieve their own career and personal goals.

Ben Brears just updated his website with this very nice (adbusters inspired?) campaign. Playing the big-brands at their own game.
