Human Behavior & Data Audience

You reach listeners who live at the intersection of data, human behavior, technology, and innovation—people who actually influence tools, teams, and budgets.

Story-First Interview Style

You’re guided through episodes like “Different Brains Built The World We Live In” to surface your best stories, not generic talking points.

Credibility Beyond Dashboards

You position yourself as a voice on culture, governance, and AI (“Don’t Walk Past The Broken Data”, “AI Will Never Again Be This Cheap”) instead of just another tools expert.

Shareable, Evergreen Conversation

You walk away with a narrative-rich episode on topics like data governance and human behavior that’s easy to share across your own channels.

Episode Angles & Guest Pitches

✨ AI Enhanced
People First, Data Second

You reveal how human behavior, incentives, and culture make or break any data or AI initiative.

Moments when people completely overruled the ‘right’ data—and why they were still right How you’ve seen data governance succeed or fail because of culture, not policy What leaders get wrong when they treat humans as data sources instead of decision-makers
AI, Chatbots, And The Humans Who Hate Them

You cut through AI hype to explain why nobody wants to talk to bad chatbots—and what better human-AI design looks like.

Why “No-one Wants To Talk To Your Chatbot” and how you’ve seen this play out The tradeoffs when AI is incredibly cheap and widely available Designing AI systems that respect human attention, trust, and emotion
Painful Lessons, Better Decisions

You share the hard, sometimes embarrassing stories that taught you how to actually use data in the real world.

Your version of “The Best Lessons Are The Most Painful Ones” in data or innovation A time ignoring ‘broken data’ cost you—or your org—real money or trust How you now balance instinct, experience, and evidence when stakes are high
Inventing With Information

You unpack how information, not just infrastructure, drives innovation—from search bars to airline data and hacked Post-it notes.

What “The Genius Was the Search Bar” means in your world How data assets (like airline or Sony examples) become products, not just reports Where you see the world ‘running out of humans’ and what that means for work
How You'd Contribute to the Show
Audience Takeaways
