After Dinner Chats
After Dinner Chats
Podcast Description
These conversations started over dinners where I get to introduce everyone at the table in a way that interests me.
Dinners are always fun. And sometimes useful, but the end of the day doesn’t really matter if it’s fun or useful it’s just the fact that we are all there connecting and making sure that we can all see what’s coming round the corner.
And the next thing we’ve got to do is to stay in touch with each other.
Yes, we have ended up having dinner parties where people have made new jobs, got new contacts for work . For me, it’s been just a way over the last 17 years to get to know the fabulous people who are always a little bit senior and a little bit fun and a little bit smarter, brighter, shinier than most!

He even wrote the book on the subject, SHIFT.
Yes, our host James Welch chats with Jules to break down exactly how Generative AI is upending the agency model. And what he’s helping agencies do about it
In this session, we’ll explore a bunch of topics, in the usual format. What’s caught your eye, what are you up to then the quick fire ‘high five’ round that is never as quick as that as it’s so interesting to find out what makes people tick.
Key Takeaways:
