Listen "325 — Christmas Special: Home Alone"
Episode Synopsis
Back by popular demand (ish), the Mind Tools L&D Podcast team are wrapping up this year with a tenuous spin on festive favourite Home Alone! This time it isn't Macaulay Culkin getting left behind: it's Ross G, Ross D, Nahdia and Owen! What would WE do if left for Christmas in the L&D department of a large organisation? When our colleagues return, what will they find? We discuss: the laughs we'd share if we could get hold of IT admin privileges how stock photography haunts us still the benefits of an AI personal assistant on every device. In 'What I Learned This Week', Ross D recommended the Scrubs podcast Fake Doctors, Real Friends: open.spotify.com/show/6qckOLN3q2qpZilM6i1MKv And for something festive, he shared 'Baby, It's Cold Outside' by Zach Braff and Donald Faison: youtube.com/watch?v=ZAGCZMQUeXo Nahdia shared a Dolly Parton fact. If you don't already love Dolly, check out the Dolly Parton's America podcast: wnycstudios.org/podcasts/dolly-partons-america And Ross G shared a Twitter thread from @Ammaar, who wrote a children's book in a weekend with ChatGPT, MidJourney and other AI tools: twitter.com/ammaar/status/1601284293363261441?s=20&t=I60XsKrPtGFMEQi7uUwA2A For the last time this year: you can find more from us, including access to our back catalogue of podcasts, visit mindtoolsbusiness.com.
