The Roundtable Rethink Podcast
Welcome to The Roundtable Rethink podcast, where three sharp minds come together every week to discuss the topics that shape our world.
Meet the voices behind the mic:
- Uncle Paddy – The seasoned entrepreneur and tech veteran, bringing years of wisdom, wit, and firsthand experience in building and scaling businesses. Expect a mix of pragmatic advice and sharp observations from a man who’s seen it all.
- Andy The Asshole – The unfiltered provocateur with a knack for cutting through the noise. Andy’s no-holds-barred takes challenge the status quo and keep the conversations refreshingly honest (and occasionally controversial).
- Stevie Telavivie – The lawyer-turned-visionary weaving insights from law, politics, and life into a compelling narrative. With a knack for seeing the big picture, Stevie keeps the conversation grounded and thought-provoking.
Together, we explore the worlds of tech, AI, politics, entrepreneurship, business, sales, marketing, and current affairs. Our mission? To be the go-to podcast for thinkers—people who are intellectually curious, unapologetically opinionated, and hungry to learn.
At The RoundTable Rethink podcast, we believe in sparking meaningful conversations that challenge your perspective and broaden your horizons. Whether you’re a startup founder, a policy wonk, or just someone who loves a good debate, this is your space to connect with ideas that matter.
So, grab a cup of coffee (or your drink of choice) and join us as we unpack the stories and trends shaping our lives and the future. Let’s brew some thoughts together!
