Ben and Ed are back after Ben's ridiculously long holiday!
Good news is they're armed with stories, sarcasm, and a few questionable dance moves from a Tina Turner musical.
Cam belt updates and holiday recovery quickly evolves into a deep dive into the British Franchise Association Conference, exploring how networking, supplier relationships, and human connection keep the franchising world spinning.
They do get stuck into music though covering AI-generated music to the future of content and creativity. The duo debate whether machines can really groove, why face-to-face beats feed-to-feed, and how visuals can transform storytelling.
It’s a blend of business insight, creative reflection, and musical chaos — proving once again that franchising isn’t just about systems; it’s about people, rhythm, and keeping the lights on when AI takes over the stage.
🎵 Featuring:
BFA Conference highlights and networking wisdom
The rise (and rhythm) of AI in music and business
Lessons from supplier partnerships and creative projects
A surprisingly emotional take on Tina Turner
