One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four.

Ah! Hello, and welcome to I am the airport with me, Chris Shaw.

Before we start, I just want to say about Opera Holland Park,

which took place on the 1st of July. Just a few thank yous, really. Thank you, firstly, to James

Clutton, who's the CEO of this beautiful venue, without whom none of this would have been

possible. He actually moved two other events on that day to ensure that this actually happened. So thank you, James.

Also to the brilliant guests, Mark Lewis and David Contick, Stuart McConey, and lovely Samira

Ahmed, who basically I insured sat next to me because I was so terrified. Thank you, Samira.

Thanks to my amazing wife, who really does put up with a lot of beastless nonsense in her life, and she's just supporting me all the way through. But especially thanks to all of you who came. I mean, there were people from Edinburgh, Liverpool. It was just so lovely, and you were all beautiful. And you all filled that venue with so much love.

So thank you, thank you.

Anyway, the egg pods take a jaunty stroll through Peppeland,

discussing the Beatles and solo Beatle albums with a potpourri of delicious guests.

In this episode, I'm joined by a globally recognized expert in AI, technology, and public policy.

Verity Harding, hello.

Hi, Chris.

Thank you so much for having me.

I'm so excited to be here.

Oh, thank you so much for coming.

We're doing this emergency egg pot for reasons, which I'm sure people can probably guess.

But can we just start by just briefly telling us, I think, what do you do?

Yeah, what do you do?
