  • Killer of the Flat White
    2022/10/31

    Series 2 Episode 4, we speak to the talented, and ahead of his years, Harrison James, who you may have recently seen on The Voice UK 2022! Recently transitioned from a Barista, or "Killer of the Flat White" to a full time musician, we get deep into his experiences, his why and how he is doing with the pressure of following his dream. Harrison opens up on his family, negativity from the Karen's of the world and his ambitions and goals that he wants to achieve with music. A young man that we loved chatting to and genuinely believe will be a name many more people know of in the future.

  • I don't want your job
    2022/09/27

    We speak with David Powell, Co-Founder of 304 Clothing during this episode. An incredible 10 years has been had by the clothing brand where they've built a recognised fashion name, grown massively, found themselves on Love Island and had their offices and stock burnt to the ground to then start all over again. Yet Dave is on the cusp of becoming a Dad and feeling like he's ready to mellow his work and life balance. Making this a perfect conversation for us at Funny and the Money.

    Dave started out studying Architecture, then landed what would have looked like a dream job in that field. But when the fire doesn't burn, what can you do? A great example of following a passion and going all in on it.

    The next edition of series 2 continues with talking to Oli Hills, Director of Nonsensical, a TikTok Agency. We first came across Oli speaking at an event and he was fascinating during that 20 minute talk. However, getting to know him more during this episode made us realise he's way more fascinating and knowledgable than we first thought.

    Oli is another great example of someone on this journey we are taking. Nothing is set out the same. Oli came from investment banking originally, then tried his hand at a couple of "failed" businesses, lost 95% of his revenue when lockdown came and now here he is. Thriving in a completely new market. And still below 35 years old! But he does give us some really good perspective on how starting out where he did set a foundation he wouldn't of learnt anywhere else.

    He tells us more about the TikTok world, which to be honest we want to know so much more about and gives some of his insight into the standard topical, mentally provoking topics that come up.

    To start off Series 2 we have the delightful Stuart Cope from Yellow Panther.

    Stuart has enough stories and depth to make this our longest episode so far. He brings so much thought and insight into his own business and his mental health during the last 2 years. He too, has made a jump, but the pace of his growth to outsiders looks amazing and rapid. To him, the anxiety that hits maintaining enough business to ensure his growing team gets paid is enough to draw on experiences of doubt and depression.

    A hugely fascinating episode that takes us to discussions around India, Autism and the Education system. All done with beers, humour and with the entrepreneurial spirit we all have!

  • The Effing Jump
    2022/06/08

    Episode 6 - The Effing Jump.

    When starting this podcast, it was all with this point in mind. Making the jump. Sharing it with each other and whoever is listening, and to be really really real about it. Luke and Elliot are the same, but different. They're both going on a journey of following something they are passionate about, but they both look at it differently. Luke has been planning this for years and tells his story of planning up until the point of jumping. Elliot has too, but he is anxious and worried about the parts that could go wrong. Both perfectly exposing the vulnerabilities of people in these positions. Making it a great listen for anyone who has a dream or passion, and wants to quit their job to follow it.

    Episode 5 drops with another great guest, and somewhat of an icon for the boys here in the podcast game. Tom Ochoa has become a friend over the last year who is the co-host of The Fozcast with Ben Foster and the Commercial Manager for The CyclingGK. Essentially, he is now in the content creation business, which is a fair move away from a successful and enjoyable role in the corporate world with Heineken. Tom offers some great insight into the real down to earth elements of being involved in the Football, Sport and Entertainment realm, but also some useful reminders of reality when working in a business that is so demanding on your time.

    Luke and Elliot continue to take it all in as they navigate the advice for their own journeys of finally making their jump a reality!

    2022/03/24

    What an interesting episode we have here for you! Talking to a fellow creative who has already taken the plunge to become an artist. Something we all found hugely satisfying for our guest to say. That guest being Gemma Grao. The conversation flows from her jump, what style her art is, how it triggers people and the topic of feminism, along with some classic Elliot behaviour after a night out with Luke leaves Elliot fuming. Gemma also delivers just the advice we want to hear, whilst we all go a bit deep. Which is common talk of course.

    The third episode of Funny and the Money brings us our first guest - Poppy Valentine Hadkinson, who is a presenter on a TV shopping channel.

    Poppy is a brilliant, inspirational friend that we loved having on with us. Her background comes from a health trigger, but every day she is doing what she loves, which we admire. She has great stories and loved throwing the banter at Elliot. Something we enjoyed a lot. We may even have her on board again in the future!
