James here!

Welcome back to another episode of the PowerWorks podcast joining me as always is Glenn Power from PowerWorks Garage. We're here to dive deep into the world of cars, sharing practical advice and engaging discussions that'll keep you revved up. Make sure to subscribe and hit that notification bell, so you never miss an episode!

In our bustling "shoe box studio" at PowerWorks Garage, we've got some incredible topics to explore today. Let me share a personal experience with you, folks. Remember when we discussed radiators and coolants in one of our previous podcasts? Not long after, I encountered a coolant leak in my car. It was a wake-up call, reminding me that those plastic tanks attached to radiators can develop cracks over time, leading to annoying leaks. It's a common issue, but one that's often overlooked.

Now, let's get down to business and talk about handling coolant leaks because, trust me, you don't want to mess around with this. Glenn, my man, take it away.

Glenn emphasizes the importance of strict adherence to the rules when dealing with coolant leaks. He warns about the dangers of trying to top up coolant by the roadside. Opening the hood in such scenarios? Not a good idea, folks. It can lead to additional risks. Glenn advises that if your car starts overheating, turn it off immediately to prevent further damage. Safety first, always!

Here's a valuable insight from yours truly, folks. If your car overheats, please make sure to place a reflective triangle safe from your vehicle before even thinking about opening the hood. Safety should be our top priority. You can just pull over to the right side of the road and turn off that engine immediately.

Glenn chimes in with deeper knowledge of the repercussions of multiple overheating incidents. He shares a Land Rover case where overheating led to head gasket failure. And let me tell you, that's a nightmare. If not addressed promptly, it can even lead to hydraulicking the engine. Trust me, you don't want that bill!

Repairing a head gasket can cost you a pretty penny, folks. But fear not! We're here to help you avoid those hefty repair costs. By following the correct protocol when dealing with an overheating car, you can save yourself from major headaches down the road.

So, if you're as passionate about cars as we are and want to gain insights into car maintenance, repairs, and everything automobile-related, tune in to the PowerWorks podcast with James and Glenn. Join us on our car-filled journey, and let's rev up our engines together!

That's all for today, folks. Stay safe on the road, and we'll catch you in the next episode of the PowerWorks podcast. Remember to like, share, and leave your comments below. Keep those engines roaring,

Episode 121

James here👋 In our recent Powerworks podcast, my co-host Glenn Power and I dove headfirst into some seriously juicy motor talk!🔧🚗

We started again by talking EVs and the reality of the Electric Vehicle transition. 😅 Yeah, we all know it's the talk of the town, but we're here to break it down in a way you might not have heard before. Glenn doesn't mince words - he's skeptical about this 'green revolution.'⚡️🌍 But trust me, the guy knows his stuff, and you'll find yourself nodding to his insights!

Between our serious discussions, we found time to chat about the joy of driving manual cars 🚗🕹️. In an age where automatics rule the roost, we reminisced about how different it feels to drive a stick. There's a charm, a romance to it. 💭💕

Our chatter inevitably led us to the topic of car regulations. That might sound boring, but Glenn's perspective fascinated me. He's a little miffed (putting it lightly!) about the "politics" involved in car manufacturing. You'll want to hear his take on it!👨‍🔧🚦

Then, we had a little fun and talked about the Mitsubishi Expander. Sure, it's spacious and functional, but let's say that Glenn wasn't a fan... at all! 😂 Is it a Minecraft-inspired design or just a bad entertainment system? You decide! 🚐🎮

To round it all off, we even dove into the debate about the Toyota Prado vs Mitsubishi Pajero. Two rugged SUVs, a world of difference! Glenn wasn't pulling any punches here!🥊🚙

This conversation is filled with deep insights, hilarious anecdotes, and everything. So if you're curious about cars or want to hear two buddies chat about their favourite topic, hop in and join the ride! 🚀

As Glenn rightly mentions, the landscape of the motor industry has changed drastically over the years, with petrol and diesel engines becoming significantly less polluting than they were a few decades ago. 🌍💨

One big takeaway from this discussion is the importance of the raw materials required for EVs and the consequential environmental impact. Glenn suggests an essential question: "Is it really something that it's worth putting all this engineering mind into?"💡🔧

Another key point from our conversation revolves around the political role in the push for EVs. We discuss how governments and policy-makers can make a difference and highlight potential obstacles and drawbacks. We discuss whether the quest for EVs is our current solution or whether other alternatives, such as hydrogen fuel, might hold more promise.🔬🚗

From the Wankel rotary engine to hydrogen fuel, we explore it all! Listen in to find out more about these intriguing topics and join the conversation. Together, we can navigate the exciting future of power engineering. 🔭🔌

In this DocTalk podcast short Dr Jenna and I had a fantastic conversation about fillers. When used correctly, we discovered that fillers can enhance lips and significantly improve skin hydration levels. However, it's important to remember that fillers should only be a complementary part of your beauty routine rather than the focus.

Of course, fillers are only for some people. Jenna shares that the beauty of fillers lies in their ability to enhance and restore, not just inflate. She prefers to keep her patients looking fresh and natural by occasionally using a touch of Botox. We also discussed how overly plumped faces can make someone appear older than their actual age, and we debunked several myths about fillers.

Did you know that fillers can last 6 months to 2 years and break down evenly once injected? If you want to learn more, tune in to our podcast for further insights!

Today, we're delving into the fascinating world of needling in this podcast short episode of the DocTalk podcast, along with Dr. Jenna Burton. Needling is an excellent, low-cost, non-surgical treatment that promises impressive results without any downtime! 💉✨

In our chat, we discuss the magic of needling and how it helps rejuvenate your skin, erase acne scars, and banish pigmentation spots. ✨ By creating micro-traumas, needling stimulates the skin's natural repair process and also creates pathways for beneficial products to penetrate deeper into your skin. 🌟 Moreover, the effects from needling last; it's not a temporary fix but a solution to the problem!

Dr. Jenna shares some intriguing information on two types of micro-needling: dry needling and needling with products inside. 🎭 While it may sound daunting, the process is comfortable with numbing cream, and the needles are smaller than you'd think! 🔍 We also explore the regimen for anti-aging treatments and maintenance, which will give you a new lease on your skin life. 🌱

Three key takeaways: 1️⃣ Needling is a low-cost, non-surgical treatment with minimal downtime. 🕐 2️⃣ It creates natural, long-lasting improvements in the skin by treating acne scarring, pigmentation and enabling deeper penetration of beneficial skin products. 💯 3️⃣ The results from needling are natural, and the problem, once treated, does not return. 🎉

Episode #64

James Here! 👋

In this latest podcast short episode of DocTalk, Dr. Jenna Burton and I dive into a topic many wonder about the right time to start anti-aging treatments like Botox and fillers. 🧖‍♀️💉

The consensus? It all depends on you! 🎯 Those with a healthy lifestyle who avoid sun damage and take good care of their skin might not need these treatments early on. Instead, these treatments are best utilized to restore what's been lost over time – usually kicking in around our late 20s and early 30s.

The industry's take on Botox and fillers has dramatically shifted in the last decade. 🔄 No longer are we injecting 18-19-year-olds to prevent aging, but rather using these treatments to subtly dial back the hands of time when people start feeling the need to look fresher. 💫💁‍♀️ Overuse of Botox, especially, can lead to issues like developing antibodies against it and muscle thinning, so caution is advised. Remember, your skin in your early 20s is still producing collagen and maintaining elasticity – there isn't necessarily a need to intervene at that stage.

The key takeaway is: start when you have a need, not a moment sooner! 😌

2. "You can use it anywhere... I've used it to help with migraine sweating." 😮💡

Hello there, folks! 👋 James Piecowye here with another enticing episode of the We Will Fix It podcast short, this time alongside Colin Thomas. 🎙️

In this short, we dive into maximizing the potential of your precious space with savvy storage options, with everything from the simple yet powerful hooks to Ikea's new age pegboards. 🛠️🚲📚

We begin by talking about the underrated art of wall mounting, the magic of hooks, and the sheer wonder of shelving. Imagine freeing up a ton of space with smartly-placed shelves or storing your impressive bike in style!

🏍️💡 Remember, folks, as Colin rightly points out, if you're storing a bike outside, you've got to protect it from rust and sunlight. ☀️🌧️

Of course, we cannot ignore the importance of our environment in our storage decisions. Remember that story where I almost placed my stand up paddleboard outside? 🏄‍♂️ I quickly realized that direct sunlight could destroy it. So inside it went!

Speaking of inside, have you ever tried Ikea's legendary lack shelves? They look beautiful, almost ethereal, but folks, you have to be careful with the weight. 📚📚📚 Colin shares a hilarious story involving these shelves, an overbearing load of reference books, and a very prominent European president's ex-wife. You really can't make this stuff up! 😂👑

And then there are the roof hoists. 🏗️ If your stuff is indoors, and you want to free up some space, roof hoists could be just the ticket. But what about pegboards? Do people still use them? Colin and I explore a new, plastic version of pegboards from Ikea that come with a whole system of hooks and baskets. 🧺🔨

From fiberglass roof systems to horizontal and vertical poles, we discuss a lot of options for storage. But remember, be it indoor or outdoor storage, you must consider weight-bearing and non-load bearing aspects. 👷‍♂️⚖️

Get ready to tune into a riveting chat full of DIY tips, clever storage ideas, and a fair bit of laughter. Hit that play button, and let's maximize that space together, folks! 🎉💼🧰

Hey there, it's James Piecowye from the WeWillFixIt podcast short, back again with Colin Thomas, bringing you the big updates straight from our shop! This week we're talking about a service that's increasingly in demand - replacing and repairing AC units. 🏠🔧💨

In just one month, we've quoted a record number of replacement jobs, and it turns out we're darn good at it. We're focusing on ensuring we continue to provide blissfully happy service to our customers while documenting the journey we're on with our Repair and Replace service. 🗂️🛠️👍

Something that's caught our attention lately is the phasing out of the traditional AC gas that's been used in Dubai. It was chock full of CFCs and nasties, but now, it's time for change.🌍♻️👏

The replacement process is not a walk in the park; it takes time and the new gas is more expensive. But at We Will Fix It, we don't take shortcuts. We have the officially approved system to make sure we recycle the old gas responsibly, sending it all to EnviroServe. 🌳🔄🌐

Did you know some companies vent the old gas into the air? Not us, we're doing things the right way, investing in the proper equipment to prevent this. We've made it our mission to protect the environment while ensuring your AC units are working optimally. 🛡️🌳👷‍♂️

Don't worry, we've got you covered! With some initial investment and understanding the benefits of a system upgrade, you can avoid potential future costs while also doing your bit for the environment. Win-win, right? 🏅🌍💸

Hey there, it's your host James Piecowye, bringing you another insightful episode of our We Will Fix It podcast short! This time around, Colin Thomas and I get our hands dirty (not literally!) and dive into the nitty-gritty of toilet connections. 🛠️💧

In this episode, we've got something you don't want to miss! We're talking about a common yet overlooked aspect of home plumbing: the toilet connector. This unassuming piece of hardware can cause big trouble when it fails, especially in hot climates where the rubber seals can crack and break over time.🔥

We also discuss the interesting observation I made about an old elbow joint and how its placement could potentially impact your sewage pipe. We ponder over the need to raise the joint a smidgeon - a quarter of an inch maybe - for a smooth flow. 🤔💭📏

What's more, there are three different styles of toilet connectors: the straight one, the slight offset, and the big offset one. You need to know which one fits your needs perfectly and we keep them all handy in our van. 🚐🧰

Oh, and don't get me started on the irony of having to schedule another visit just because the hardware wasn't replaced when the toilet was. If you're replacing the toilet, why not replace the hardware that goes with it, right? 🚽🔄

👋 Hey folks, James here! This short clip from the PowerWorks podcast is a must-watch for all motorheads and curious car owners. My co-host, Glenn Power, and I discuss a common phenomenon: the mysterious disappearance of torque from older vehicles. You know what I mean, that Nissan Sunny or your beloved Jeep just isn't quite the sports car it used to be. 😏 🚗 In this episode, we dive into the mechanics behind torque - that force which throws you back into your seat when you hit the gas. Glenn gives a crystal-clear explanation of how, as your engine wears down over time, it becomes less efficient and, unfortunately, torque takes a hit. This leads to the sad reality where you floor the pedal and... well, not much happens. 😅 But fear not, we also discuss some potential solutions for extending the life of your engine and preserving that precious torque!📌 Top Takeaways:1️⃣ Torque, as Glenn explains, is the effort you put into getting the horsepower to move the car. As your engine wears down, torque decreases due to less compression.2️⃣ Engine wear doesn't always happen uniformly - factors like defects in spark plugs, ignition coils, and fuel injectors can cause more wear in certain cylinders.3️⃣ Regular oil changes can help maintain engine life and, as a result, help preserve torque. Clean oil can help control carbon deposits and prevent oil burn.❗️ So, if you want to keep that Nissan Sunny or Jeep feeling like a sports car for as long as possible, buckle up and join us on this torque-full journey! 🎥 Don't forget to hit that Like button, share this video with your car-loving buddies, and subscribe to our channel for more exciting motor talks!

Welcome to another DocTalk podcast short, where I, James Piecowye, chat with Dr. Neil Galletly about the intriguing world of gut health, probiotics, and the human microbiome. In this episode, we dive into the critical role that gut health plays in our overall well-being and how we're just beginning to understand the complex connections between our gut, heart, liver, and mental health.

A well-balanced microbiome is essential for various aspects of our health, but we are still scratching the surface of understanding how to manipulate it effectively.

Welcome to the We Will Fix It podcast short, where Colin Thomas and I, James Piecowye, talk about all things home maintenance.

In today's episode, we're discussing the joys and pains of having a kitchen island, and what you need to consider before installing one.

Colin shares that a kitchen island can be a magic addition to your home - it's not just a place for food prep, but also a gathering spot for family and friends. However, installing an island can be a huge challenge, especially if you're retrofitting one into an existing kitchen.

To make sure you're prepared, Colin recommends three things: water supply, water waste, and power. You'll need power for appliances like dishwashers, and water supply and waste for sinks and filters. But the biggest challenge is drainage - you need the right angle for the pipes, and you'll likely need to dig a channel through your floor to make it work. And that's not all - once you've got the utilities in place, you'll need to choose the right tiles for your island.

Colin shares his own experience of having to rip up and replace tiles due to a shoddy installation job, and warns that this can be an ongoing issue. So, before you decide to install a kitchen island, make sure you've thought through all the challenges and costs involved. But if you do it right, it can be a wonderful addition to your home.

Highlights:

Installing a kitchen island can be magical, but it comes with its own set of challenges:

-Consider water supply, water waste, power, and drainage before installing an island

-Choosing the right tiles can also be a challenge, and shoddy installation can lead to ongoing issues

James Piecowye here, and welcome to this We Will Fix It podcast short featuring Colin Thomas and his recent mishap with his pool cleaning system.

Colin thought he knew what he was doing when he attempted to use the automatic waste system to fix an overflowing pool after heavy rains.

However, he made a few critical mistakes, such as not turning off the pump and reversing the order of the waste valve and the selector for the pool filter.

The result? The high-pressure pump caused a blockage and shattered the clear cover of the filter.

Luckily, Colin was able to find a replacement cover with the help of his purchasing team and his daughter Ruby, and everything is back in working order. Colin admits that he should have read the instructions from his dad more carefully, but he and his wife Natalie have a division of labour when it comes to pool maintenance.

Lesson learned?

Always read the instructions carefully before attempting any home improvement project.

And remember to turn off the pump, open the waste valve first, and then put the multi-selector from filter to waste before turning the pump back on.

Highlight 1: Colin's failed attempt at using the automatic waste system for his pool and the resulting mishap.

Highlight 2: The importance of reading instructions carefully and following the correct order when attempting DIY projects.

Colin Thomas talks about using social media at WeWillFixIt.

Colin Thomas Well, no, we're not. Let's be honest. So we have a marketing team. And the marketing team said, we recently realized that what works really well is YouTube talking. So now, if we did another session last week, I think it was where we literally were just told, right, you need to discuss this topic. And what they've worked out now is, whatever you do, do not give us a script. I can't do it. I'm like a goldfish, I can do six seconds beyond that. I'm absolutely stuffed. If you give me a subject area, I can give you five hours if you want it, it's absolutely fine. But make me talk a script. I'm never going to be an actor. Can't remember lines for love or money, but subject areas tend to work quite well. So that's exactly what we're doing now. which coincidentally fits quite well with Instagram where it's not really supposed to be quite so pre-planned. So we're coming away from the highly polished advert style that we used to do and instead making it a little bit more air and now it seems to be connecting really well with people. That's a real challenge, isn't it? And that's what I constantly say to podcasters I say like you keep it real. Yeah, absolutely real as soon as you look, scripting is good, and having an idea and preparing and doing research all good. But at the end of the day, your content has to sound real. If it just sounds like you're reading a script. Yeah, nobody's gonna listen to that. That's exactly it.

Episode 85

Welcome back to the We Will Fix It podcast, where we share stories and tips about home improvement and DIY projects.

In this podcast, Colin Thomas talks about his recent DIY mishap with his pool cleaning system and the plumbing issues he's been having in his home in Dubai.

Colin's pool was overflowing after heavy rains, and he attempted to use the automatic waste system to fix the problem. However, he made a few critical mistakes, such as not turning off the pump, and he ended up breaking the clear cover of his pool pump filter. Fortunately, he was able to find a replacement cover at a local shop and get his pool back in working order.

Colin also came across a website that claimed to have a DIY solution for heating your pool using hula hoops, noodles, and a black bin liner. However, he and our host agree that this method is not very effective and would not work for most pools. Instead, Colin suggests using a solar water heater panel to heat the water flowing through the pool pump system.

Moving on to plumbing issues, Colin explains why copper pipes can be a problem in Dubai, where the desalinated water has more salt than in Europe, causing corrosion. He emphasizes the importance of using the right grade of copper piping and how retrofitting an island in a kitchen can be a challenge.

To properly install an island in your kitchen, you need a water supply, water waste, and power to be able to do it, and you may need an almighty channel going through your floor. He also talks about the importance of having the right angle for drainage and how it's not a patch job.

Lastly, Colin discusses how he uses his kitchen island as a utility center for his daily life and how it's a great place for family gatherings.

So, if you're looking to heat your pool, skip the hula hoops and go for a solar water heater panel instead. And always read the instructions carefully before attempting any home improvement project. Thanks for tuning in to the We Will Fix It podcast.

Two highlights include the DIY pool heating solution using hula hoops and noodles being debunked and Colin's advice on installing an island in your kitchen. #DIY, #homeimprovement, #plumbing, #poolmaintenance

Of course, you have heard about dumpster diving, right?

Well in this podcast it's not what you might think. It's actually a really interesting way to learn about the world of repairs and what goes on behind the scenes. And that's exactly what Glenn Power and I are doing on our latest podcast, Powerworks Dumpster Dive.

In this short episode, we take a tour of the Powerworks garage dumpster and show some of the things we found in the recycling bin.

We start off by looking at an engine block, which is a complete disaster. Glenn explains that if your warning light comes on while you're driving, you should stop immediately. If you continue to drive, it could cause complete engine failure, which can be expensive to repair.

We then move on to a controlled suspension on a Landrover, which looks like it's in good condition, but in reality, the ball joint is completely exposed and has no rubber around it to keep the moisture and dust out. Excessive movement on this arm could lead to extra strain on the other arms and cause your car to wear out faster. We also talk about brake discs, and how important it is to measure their thickness to make sure they're safe to use. If they're below the minimum thickness, they can't be reused, which can be dangerous.

Finally, we show a radiator with a plastic tank that has a seal between the aluminum and plastic. This tank can fail under the pressure of holding the hose on, which can block the radiator or take it out of the system completely. Plastic is cheaper than metal, but it's also more prone to failure, which is why it's important to keep an eye on it.

So there you have it, folks!

Dumpster diving can teach you a lot about the world of repairs, and it's definitely worth checking out Glenn and James' podcast if you want to learn more. Here are some highlights from this episode:

If your warning light comes on while you're driving, stop immediately.

Excessive movement on suspension arms can cause extra strain on other parts of your car.

Always measure your brake discs' thickness to make sure they're safe to use.

Plastic is cheaper than metal, but it's also more prone to failure, so keep an eye on it.

Welcome to the PowerWorks Podcast Short with James Piecowye and Glenn Power, where we dive into the latest issues surrounding electric vehicles and dirty electricity.

In this episode, we discuss the practicality and limitations of EVs, as well as the need for clean energy production.

It's easy to take electricity for granted, but where does it come from and what is its impact on the environment?

We touch on the importance of renewable energy sources such as hydrogen, and how the UAE is setting ambitious goals to be a leader in this field.  While internal combustion engines have their benefits, it's clear that the future of transportation lies in electric vehicles. However, the current limitations in charging infrastructure and range make it a less practical option for many.

As always, we bring our unique perspectives to the table, discussing the importance of clean energy production and the need to think beyond just individual modes of transportation.

Takeaway #1: The shift towards electric vehicles is inevitable, but there is a pressing need for clean energy production to support it.

Takeaway #2: While internal combustion engines will eventually become a thing of the past, we should also recognize their contributions to the advancement of transportation and the need for a practical approach to the transition to electric vehicles.

SPEAKERS Colin Thomas, James Piecowye James Piecowye Hello, you're listening to a we will fix it podcast short with Colin Thomas. And myself James microwave had a nice conversation that if you listen to this podcast, you've heard it very recently about vacations and summer air conditioning. And we had a good talk. My advice didn't. James, let's build the advice was sage, it worked. Excellent. Everything should have gone as planned. In fact, when we got home, and we get into our house, and so there's two The first thing happens is I'm open. So we got two things we're going to talk about the first we're going to talk about AC But second, we're gonna talk about gates because is Versa couldn't get in the gate. Oh, well have two gates. Thankfully, one of them I couldn't get in. And it was really like, come on. And you know, and it's late at night. And fortunately, I didn't have any children with me because that would have added to it. But I get into the house. And the advice was leave a unit on downstairs. Leave a unit on upstairs, open up your doors. Maybe keep an extractor fan on maybe keep the fan on. Have it set at you know, I don't know. 2829? Yeah, Colin Thomas well, that's a little bit too. What actually said was just one upstairs, right? Yeah. For the simple reason that cooler air is obviously going to go down. Okay, that will help the process of circulation. I loved ones tell me that she's downstairs when that failed. No, James Piecowye I so I left one on upstairs one on downstairs get in. This is nice. As we're walking up the stairs that halfway point. It's like, oh, Houston, we have a problem was like oh, and I don't Okay, well, you know, I'm looking at the the fan is going so the air is circulating upstairs. But it is near as I can figure so we had an air conditioner failure. And I as near as I can figure must have failed pretty early on in the summer because I have never come home to the upstairs part of my villa being this hot. Colin Thomas That's bizarre considering admittedly the circulation wouldn't be nowhere near as good. Yeah, but if you've got a fan that's operating in one room with all doors open downstairs, upstairs, that should have been enough to move enough air. I would have thought too, too. If

SPEAKERS Colin Thomas, James Piecowye

Colin Thomas Okay, so the other side of that we've got the basic rules within houses of Dubai, which still aren't important for this part, which are never ever, ever use nails. Okay, yeah, so picture nails which are perfectly okay in the UK can use it in Canada. James Piecowye What a picture nails. Colin Thomas So more kind of thick, strong nails that are quite short, probably like an inch, inch and a half. They literally just can hammer the wall and put a picture up nice and easily. You don't know how would you hide your picture in them in Canada? James Piecowye Well, you know, it's drywall. So. Colin Thomas Okay, so which goes butterfly clips? Yeah. Okay, yeah, well, no, that's still decimal. perfectly, perfectly useful until you try and hang a TV, which I have done. This before, during the the dentists where we ceiling, customers. And that looks pretty scary. But at the end of the day, because my insurance was involved, the amount of support behind that literally, we spread that out over the whole ceiling up to quite a trapeze on that thing. Oh, yeah, we've done all sorts like, in that regard. James Piecowye So the nails, the nails, or the concrete nails that you can buy here, they're readily available. They're like five dirhams for a box of like, 1500. Right? Colin Thomas Have you used it? Ever, ever? No, it's a definite you must drill. Otherwise, you end up with these blast holes that are two inches wide, and you have a real problem on your hands. And you won't know about your blast most of the time until you're taking it out. And then at that point, it will crumble away with it. And it's we're talking nine times out of 10. Here, this isn't, oh, it might happen. It will happen. Without a doubt. Even if you've done two or three, you will have that effect. Back I'm dead easy. Use it all the time. Not here without a doubt. So drill a hole. Normally six mil is about right spot. And then yeah, this is what we need unless you go structural for a picture. Unless it's a big heavy mirror. You don't need you don't know anything too big. At that point. Just a simple screw going straight into a plug and you are ready to roll. Okay, yeah, I can do it in under a minute hole. So it's just

Rashid Al Awadhi does nothing halfway and in the process has consistently ushered in monumental shifts in the way we not only think but also do.

Rashid has over 24 years of Marketing and Communications experience, including various senior-level positions in Middle East based multi-national companies, as well as UAE government entities.

Before being named CEO of the New Media Academy, Rashid was the Senior Vice-President for Marketing and Communications at the Dubai International Financial Center, leading the transition of the organization into Digital Media and Content Marketing.

Prior to that, he founded and managed Barza New Media, a digitally-driven boutique-style consultancy that specialized in the production of social media-driven reality content, with a particular focus on Arabic-centric topics.

Before that, he was the co-founder of “Qabeela.tv” with his brother Mohamed. Together they produced, directed and hosted the award-winning social travel show “Peeta Planet”, which was the first-ever blended Social TV show in the world. The show was powered by Google and supported by twofour54.

In 2009, Rashid became the first Emirati Government Employee to win the prestigious "Communicator of The Year" Award from the Middle East PR Association, and in February 2020 he was voted onto its Executive Board.

He was chosen as one of "The 40 Most Influential Emiratis Under 40" during the UAE's 40th National Day celebrations and was featured on the Forbes Middle East List of "50 Impactful Marketing and Communications Professionals In The Middle East" in 2020.

Pietra De Mello-Pittman MBE and Ella Louvaine Spira MBE are the co-founders of Sisters Grimm and this is a conversation this dynamic duo had with James Piecowye.

Motivating, inspiring and WOW are all words that you might use to describe these ladies.

Ella Louvaine Spira MBE is a London & Dubai-based Grammy-nominated composer, theatre producer and painter. She has dedicated her life to cross-cultural, multi-disciplinary, global collaborations spotlighting and celebrating different cultures through the arts.

Her passion and drive for representing other cultures, has seen her work and those cultures be celebrated by millions all over the world. To write about everything Spira has done and achieved would be a book, but there are Grammy nominations, award-winning world-touring live cultural theatre productions, millions of YouTube hits, mass participation social Impact initiatives and now a Golden Jubilee Fine Art Series and exclusive NFT drop.

Pietra Mello-Pittman was born in Rio de Janeiro to a Brazilian mother and English father. Growing up in England she trained in both Ice skating and Ballet to the point at which Pietra had to choose her path.

Pietra was one of the rare few to win a place with the Royal Ballet Company after entering full-time ballet training, with the Royal Ballet School, at the latest possible stage at 16 years old.

She performed all the classics, created roles in new productions and has performed all over the world with the Royal Ballet including at The Mariinsky and Bolshoi Theatres in Russia and in Cuba with Carlos Acosta.

After winning the Ursula Morton Choreography Competition in 2001, while at the Royal Ballet School in London, Pietra started on the path to becoming a producer through her subsequent choreographies. Passionate about cross-cultural, multi-disciplinary collaborations and carrying with her, the high standards she is accustomed to from her 13-year professional life as a ballerina, Pietra retired from the Royal Ballet in 2015 to focus on producing for Sisters Grimm.

In December 2016 she won ITP’s Young Arab Awards as the philanthropist of the year.

In parallel to the humanitarian efforts, she has continued her production work since 2008. She has worked as a producer for six seasons of the popular Arabic TV show Khawatir. Nur was also the production manager of an award-winning film “Jareedy”, the first film to be narrated in the Nubian language.

Nur strongly believes in the existence of the strength every individual has to be able to accomplish his or her dreams. Her mission in life is to spread and be the source of light, blessings and love.

Light is the new chrome!

Until now, whenever automotive designers wanted to draw attention to highlights, they often used chrome details and strips – on the inside and outside. For a few years now, the trend has additionally been moving towards new light elements in the vehicle interior, but most of all on the outside of the vehicle. “Light is the new chrome,” Klaus Zyciora explains as the Volkswagen Group Head of Design and former Head of Volkswagen Brand Design. “Light plays a major role, especially for an electric vehicle. It represents energy and electricity, but also warmth and safety. Light is a perfect symbol for the mobility of the future.”

James had the opportunity to talk with LaRuche about music, dreams, ambition and more.

Laura Daniela Rudchenco, stage name LaRudche, is a blues and soul singer from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Despite growing up in the land of tango, she thrived on the music of Nina Simone, Etta James, Amy Winehouse, and Joss Stone. Her hunger for travel led her to pursue a career with a prestigious airline, trotting the globe for nine years. Now, she has devoted her focus to her musical career, performing live shows on Instagram under the name "Love in the Time of Quarantine" and releasing her debut album, Feathers, on all major music platforms. Swearing to be "born in the wrong era," she dares to bring back Soul and the Blues from their roots to our days with a new and colorful twist.

James had an opportunity to catch up with Ian Michael and Bert Ohnemüller for a talk about how business today is getting it all wrong, COVID-19, or not.

I love the Lincoln brand and that goes back to my uncles coming to Toronto in the mid-70s to buy these giant Lincoln Town Cars to take back to Regina.

When Sue Nigoghossian at Ford Middle East asked me if wanted to meet Sarah Rae the MD of Lincoln Middle East and talk the Lincoln Experience with a 2019 Nautilus I couldn't say no.

We talked Lincoln from the back seat of a Nautilus and then headed to the Al Tayer Lincoln Vitrine, wow.  The automotive ownership experience is being reimagined in Dubai.

Sony Elias at Al Tayer Motors introduced me to Keith Phillips the Lincoln sales manager and we had a look around the new home of the Lincoln experience in Dubai.
