G’DAY WORLD #300 – The End Of Season Three and James Masini from Hippo

Posted on 02. Nov, 2007 by in entrepreneurialism, Melbourne, Melbourne's Leaders, Podcast

Well folks, here we are, 300 episodes and 3 years in, and I’m just getting warmed up! However, with a new year of G’Day World comes a new format, a new topic and a new question which demands The Cam’s attention – what are you doing on a daily basis to make the world a better place? As you’ll hear in today’s show, that is going to be my focus in the Year Four of G’Day World and TPN.

Also on today’s show, I’ve got a recording from MODM 7 where Simon Chen and I chatted with James Masini, 24-year-old Melbourne entrepreneur and founder of Hippo, an online job board to 15 – 24 year-olds. There’s a lot of background noise and we were standing too far away from the mics, but it’s audible and a great story. I hope you don’t mind the low quality. I was using the new Blue Snowball and Macbook for the first time and over-estimated it’s ability to pick us up amid the noise.

Speaking about my new Macbook Pro – it was sponsored by the awesome folks at Global1Training who are also sponsoring my interview from a few months ago with Dr John Demartini. If you didn’t hear that show, I highly recommend it, especially if you’re feeling like you could be getting a little more out of your life. Demartini has some great tips for asking yourself the right questions.

Thanks to everyone who has supported the show over the last three years – I’ve had the time of my life. Three years making this shit for a living. It should almost be illegal.

We caught up for lunch in South Yarra today and chatted about why visionaries often feel frustrated with their own progress, the need for a world democracy and how shareholders can use their voting power to effect political change.

    I’m very pleased to be able to chat with Adrian Giles from Hitwise on the show today. Back in 1997, Adrian and his partner started the company age 23 and they recently sold it to Experian for US$240 million. We talk about the beginnings of the company, the business model, the challenges with raising VC in Australia, and what it feels like to be this cashed up by 33.

    Posted on 15. Mar, 2007 by in Melbourne's Leaders, Podcast

    I caught up again with Dr Peter Ellyard today for another enlightening and invigorating chat about where the world is heading. Every time Peter and I catch up it’s like sticking my fingers in a power socket. I come out of the time with him feeling inspired.

    Today we talk about:

  • Buckminster Fuller’s last book “Critical Path” and some of his recommendations
  • Some of Peter’s ideas on ways future entrepreneurs can change the world and make BEEEELIONS of dollars
  • Becoming a “Future Maker”
  • Why Peter has been a vegan and doing Iyengar yoga for 35 years
