Simon GatesHOST
i don't want to go off on a mad tangent now but i'm a few hundred episodes into this podcast and uh you know some of the names including yourself i've been able to have on the podcast over the years has been incredible and it's like well that didn't just happen overnight it's taken hundreds and hundreds of conversations being in the right rooms if i was to actually going back to what we said about leaders earlier a real pinnacle moment for me in my career peter and how this podcast conversation has kind of come about was um I was watching on YouTube the podcast you did with Peter Rowlings and Matt Giggs, which was brilliant, by the way.
Simon GatesHOST

You know, it's funny that, isn't it? The harder I practise, the luckier I get.
Gus HumphriesHOST
Yeah.
