Sam Delaney on grind culture and the danger of optimising your protocols

This week on Who We Are Now Richard and Izzy are joined by fellow podcaster Sam Delaney. After figuring out that the hustle and the grind are in fact not 70s dance moves, Richard and Izzy drill down into the murky world of high performance. From Huberman to coal miners, Richard, Sam and Izzy unpick the corporatisation of the human experience and where the perfect balance is when it comes to working hard.Listen on Global Player to hear the next episode a whole day earlier than anywhere else.

Om Podcasten

In 2006 Richard Hammond broke his brain. The high-speed jet-powered car he was piloting crashed at 319mph… and the thing that stopped the car from rolling? That was his head. Richard’s been on a journey of self-discovery and personal growth ever since, and now, he’s on a mission to demystify and destigmatise conversations around masculinity, mental health, and the issues that affect us all, in a bid to discover who we are now. Joined by his co-pilot and grown-up daughter Izzy, they’ll dive into the worlds of mid-life crisis’, what makes a modern man, how to raise daughters, and even question what it means to be a little shorter than average... Join Richard and Izzy as they try to figure out Who We Are Now. For advertising opportunities on this podcast email: dax@global.com
