Don't be sad. I know it's hard to hear but this is our final episode of this season. But do not worry as we have a hell of an episode. James Erskine (the host) gets his once a season treat of interviewing someone where it gets rather nerdy. James Brown is a journalist, author, music reviewer, cultural observer and visionary genius that kickstarted the world of "lad mags" with his magazine Loaded. James talks to James (don't worry its not that confusing in the podcast) about it all. His roots back in the day of the underworld culture of zines. His days at NME and GQ UK. How Loaded came to be and how it started the cultural phenomenon of the "ladmag". He also talks about the stories with some of the music icons he met back in the day and where he is going next. Then of course James asks James for his rocket fuel!

You found us again. And today we are sticking to what we know best, talking about youth audience with a young person. Ali Suleman is one of those young people that you meet, have a small conversation with and walk away thinking "that guy is gonna rule the world". In university he started a podcast with his friends from his class to help other people like him at university navigate the world of finance and hopefully land them a job. The podcast has become a HIT and now Ali walks into networking events at some of the biggest companies in the world and they are starting to know who he and his friends are. We talk to him about the journey of the show. Where could it go. Why it is even called Dumb Money and then at the end we do what we always love to do is we as Ali Suleman of the Dumb Money Podcast for his rocket fuel.

In our 1st of something a bit new we are launching a yearly bonus episode between seasons. This is what we are calling Retro Rocket Fuel! It will feature an episode from the back long followed by James's take on how thing may or may not have changed in the world since then and if the our guests rocket fuel stands the test of time or not.
In our retro episode we take you back to 2019/20 just before the world changed dramatically. James (the host) Erskine spoke to James (the guest) O'Malley!
James O’Malley is a technology and politics freelance journalist.
At the time of broadcast this is what we wrote about James and the episode:
“The problem with being a technology journalist is, these days, you’re basically an everything journalist.”
Technology has become so ubiquitous throughout modern society that it now pervades every nook and cranny of our lives. Of course it has afforded us amazing benefits, but luxuries are not without their costs; we use technology, but it, in turn, uses us. As such, James O’Malley has made it his mission to report and document on how technology catalyses change in the world.
Having been the editor for Gizmodo UK for two years, as well as having written for publications such as WIRED and The Spectator, James has become an expert at discussing technology and culture. He has reported on how TfL breaches privacy, the horrors of China’s social credit system, and even coded a free-to-use Trump notification bot.
Our discussion includes: how technology and politics affect our society, the importance of data, healthy skepticism, and TikTok confusion.
This is James O’Malley’s Rocket Fuel.
Don't for get to stick around after to hear thoughts from James (the host) as he reflects on his discussion with James (the guest) and what can we learn and still apply to today.

Nathaniel Hunter is someone who is taking play into the future. His company D1srupt1ve (no the 1’s are supposed to be there) partnered up with the toy giants Mego to bring back a classic some of our listeners may recognise. The 2-XL robot. It has had many forms over the years but this time its pushing the world just a little bit further with the thanks to AI. We talk with Nathaniel about AI ethics and the future of it. How it works in a family setting to improve mental health in a semi-screen free way to blend in to every part of a day from brushing your teeth to telling a joke. We talk about Mego and its history of pushing out innovative toys and always betting on the future of play. 2-XL even chimes in to have a chat with James as they go on a little adventure and James tries to see what the limits are… all in the name of research and children's safety. Then Nathaniel gives us their rocket fuel for todays episode.

A small word of warning this episode has some quite frank language and the occasional word bomb may be dropped.
This week James talks to Jamie East the presenter, broadcaster, punk singer and journalist. Who paved his way almost accidentally by being someone who was willing to look at what was there and tell them where they needed to go.
We take a deep dive into who is Jamie East and what makes him tick. We talk about the days Big Brother's Bit On The Side and what was Holy Moly and how did it create its place in a world where others were stuck in more "old media" tendencies. We also have a rather frank conversation about influencers and how they compare to celebrities past.
We chitchat around Jamie's podcast Smart 7 and why he decided to go full into podcasting over
We will be back fortnightly (that’s every 2 weeks) on Thursdays. We can’t wait for you to listen in.

Welcome back to Rocket Fuel!
This week James sits down with Rachel Beech. She and James go way back and catch up with Rachel's newest and best venture yet... We Are Fetch. An amazing app and network system revolutionising the way we all do the school run and more.
We talk to her about where she got started and why being a tech head helped her get ahead of the game and why working with todays younger humans is rewarding in multiple ways.
We also discuss We Are Fetch, why was it needed, how it works and ways its being used right now to make not only the school run and play dates easier to organise for parents and schools but also that more important part safer.
And then we ramble around the topic of parents as an audience to brands and how some but not all may not be reaching the full potential of a youth audience by just talking to the ones with the money. And then we move on to our headlining question of Rachel's Rocket Fuel where she has some amazing advice.
We will be back fortnightly (that’s every 2 weeks) on Thursdays. We can’t wait for you to listen in.
