Hosts Lauren Hogan, Nathan George and Chris Davies are three operators from different corners of business who realised there was too much gold sitting in the group chat, so they pressed record instead.
Lauren works in talent and people strategy.
Nathan builds brands and growth engines.
Chris implements operating systems and accountability.
Different lenses. Same skin in the game.
People. Performance. Culture. Consequence.
Between them, they’ve hired, fired, led, scaled, steadied, advised, carried risk, cleaned up messes, and occasionally created a few. They’ve seen what works in theory and what survives contact with reality, and they have very little interest in business cosplay.
BUT Pod is what happens when the off-the-record jousting becomes the main event. The “are we allowed to say this?” moments. The uncomfortable clarifications. The polite disagreement that unexpectedly turns into something more useful.
There’s no script, no guests, and no performative hot takes. Just three people who care about how business actually functions: how talent moves, how expectations collide, how we behave when it matters, how systems either liberate or suffocate, and why some organisations level up while others quietly unravel.
It’s not a masterclass.
It’s not a manifesto.
It’s the conversation behind the conversations — the one that usually happens between us three.
