The podcast where AI meets real life (and laughs)

Join Chris and Mark as they break down the latest in AI, tech, and innovation—minus the jargon, plus a bit of chaos.

Chris

Product Strategist • UX Pro • AI Builder

Chris helps startups and scale-ups turn smart ideas into real products—fast. With 15+ years in fintech, SaaS, and enterprise, he’s all about UX that solves actual problems and AI that pulls its weight.
From design sprints to MVPs powered by agentic AI, Chris is the guy who gets things moving without the fluff. If you’re building something new (or fixing something old), Chris is your go-to.

Mark

AI Strategist • Blockchain Advocate • Practical Futurist

Mark lives at the edge of innovation—then builds bridges to the real world. As AI Implementation Lead at NotCentralised and CXO at Sike.ai, he’s deploying AI where it counts: secure, purposeful, and human-centred.
He’s also President of the Australian DeFi Association, championing responsible decentralised tech. If it’s complex, emerging, and worth doing right—Mark’s already on it.
