🎙️ Still Not Cancelled
AI Readiness Podcast
A look back. A lot of laughs. A whole lot of learning.
We’ve officially made it to double digits — and we haven’t been cancelled yet.
In this special compilation episode, Lucy and Andrew look back at the best (and most chaotic) moments from the first 10 episodes of AI Readiness.
But this isn’t just a blooper reel.
It’s a behind-the-scenes tour of what’s really been going on in the world of AI culture, adoption, and capability.
💡 In this episode:
Just giving people AI isn’t the answer
We explore why dropping Copilot into people’s laps doesn’t mean they’ll actually use it — or trust it. Culture, support and context matter more than rollout.
AI isn’t a technical problem — it’s a cultural one
You’ll hear how poor communication and lack of inclusion can quietly sabotage AI adoption before it’s even begun.
What happens when people get it
We talk about the shift that happens when people go from “I don’t get this” to “I actually love this.”
The before-and-after of real AI literacy is kind of magic.
👀 Other moments we featured:
AI Guilt & Immersion
We get into the emotional blockers (especially for women) around using AI — and how guilt is holding people back from using tools that could transform their work.
Live avatar testing
Yes, we had a conversation with a digital coach. Yes, it got weird. Yes, it’s in the episode.
“Bananas!” — featuring Rich
You’ll finally understand the origin of the “bananas” outburst — and why Rich might be the real star of the show.
How we chose the theme tune
You’ll hear how the iconic AI Readiness music came to life… and how close we came to something truly awful.
🎧 Listen if you’ve ever thought:
- “Surely AI is a plug-and-play tool?”
- “Why is everyone else getting this and I’m not?”
- “Can we please make AI less serious for a second?”
🟣 Let us know your favourite moment
Drop a comment, send us a message, or shout “bananas” at the next client meeting.
We’re still not cancelled. And we’re still just getting started.
