0:00.0	Welcome back to Jimmy's Jobs of the Future. I really hope you enjoyed our episode with Tony Blair last week.
0:05.6	It's fair to say that it has made some waves, particularly regarding his comments around mental health.
0:11.9	It was picked up by the front page of the Daily Telegraph on Monday, and then it sort of led various radio stations throughout Monday and Tuesday.
0:24.3	I do think the context has been slightly lost. We were discussing how the UK almost has a million people out of the workforce than it did
0:30.7	pre-pandemic. Every government that comes in from Liz Trust to Kirstama says that their
0:35.3	number one priority is growth. At the end of the day, if you have a million people missing from your workforce,
0:41.3	you are going to struggle to find that growth.
0:43.3	That is a lot of what this show is about.
0:45.3	Where are people going to be employed in the future?
0:49.3	So I just think the context has been slightly lost at various points, and I am very keen to get that across because I think it's very important what he said and I think there is a lot of truth to it and we probably do need much more of a public conversation about it, as he said in the episode.
1:08.0	And it certainly feels like that has happened over the last week
1:11.2	looking at my various mentions and social media handles. But as always, we're keen to hear
1:16.4	your thoughts to do followers on LinkedIn where we're still posting about it, etc. Today, though,
1:22.7	is a bit of a different episode recorded live just before Christmas with some of my favourite thinkers on careers
1:30.8	and skills. The Squiggly Careers Founders in Helen and Sarah Ellis. Sarah has been on the podcast
1:38.5	a couple of years ago actually talking about their book, You Coach You. Then there's Bruce Daisley, who is a former
1:45.9	managing director of Twitter in the UK, and now hosts the podcast Eat, Sleep, Work, Repeat. He will
1:52.5	be coming on the show in a few weeks time. And also Isabel Berwick, who hosts the Financial
1:59.4	Times' Working It podcast.
2:02.5	We discussed AI and how to go about asking for pay rises and promotions, etc.
2:08.3	It was a really lovely evening and we raised some terrific money for the charity, Beam and Upreach.
2:15.3	So I really hope you enjoy it. Thanks as always for listening and thanks for
	...
