    How did Ai do at creating a podcast? (Jan 2026)
    Jan 13 2026
    It's early 2026 as we write this and Ai has advanced sufficiently that we can start sharing some interesting podcast-related demonstrations.
    For this episode, we directed an Ai Agent (can we call them Aigents yet?) to 'scrape' our website and write a script. We then selected two ai-gen voices to 'perform' the script.
    This is the result...

    IP 101 with Rademeyer Attorneys
    Feb 26 2025
    In this IP 101 discussion, Jean van Vuuren and Kim Rademeyer explore various aspects of intellectual property, focusing on trademarks, copyright, and their applications in different industries. They begin by addressing the difference between trading names and trademarks, emphasizing that they don't necessarily need to be the same. Jean explains that a trading name is often associated with a holding company, while a trademark is used for specific products or services. They discuss the importance of trademarking both company names and individual product names. The conversation then shifts to the pharmaceutical industry, where Jean elaborates on the differences between original, generic, and clone medications. He explains how patent expiration leads to the creation of generics and how pharmaceutical companies create clones to compete in the market. The discussion touches on the benefits to consumers and the misconceptions surrounding generic medications. Kim and Jean also delve into the topic of copyright, explaining its automatic nature and the challenges in enforcing it. They discuss the importance of copyright notices and the concept of fair use. The conversation then moves to e-commerce and the role of intellectual property in online businesses. Jean highlights the importance of registering trademarks early to prevent issues with competitors. Finally, they discuss the future of AI in conference proceedings, touching on its potential for improving efficiency, accuracy, and engagement in meetings. Solid Gold Podcasts and Audiobooks Website

  • Memorability the Brain Skills Podcast with Kirti Ranchod

    Memorability the Brain Skills Podcast with Kirti Ranchod
    Dec 17 2024
    I was 37, already a neurologist for many years, the day my beautiful grandmother forgot how to get home. A home where I spent my happiest childhood days.

    I knew then that I had to do more to help her, now living with Alzheimer's disease, and more for the people I was seeing in my practice, in ways that academic neurology at that stage did not offer.

    There was so much research on what could be done to keep the brain healthy and mentally well. So much research on how to support better brain function, to reduce the risk of illness such as Alzheimer's disease, depression and stroke, but also to get the brain to function better, to learn and to remember, to solve problems and make decisions, to imagine and create different possibilities.

    The brain is incredibly powerful.

    Welcome to Memorability the Brain Skills Podcast where I help you to unlock your brain's potential using practical neuroscience so that you can work through your challenges and make the most of your opportunities.

    In 1979, the Buggles proclaimed that "video had killed the radio star." Yet decades later, the radio star continues to shine.

    At 11 years old, my dream of becoming a radio host was ignited by hearing the legendary Bonang Matheba on Metro FM. Now, as AI reshapes the media landscape, the resilience of the radio personalities faces never before tests.

    Join me on Leo's perspective as we delve into the enduring allure of radio, the impact of AI on broadcasting, and the future of radio stars in the 21st century, and ask the question - "will the radio stars survive the next 50 years?"

    For the transformation of unemployed youth.

    I was 21 years old evangelising around Umtata.

    Some of the people we met were hungry and I thought buying bread and milk would have helped them more at the time.

    This incident deeply bothered me and is connected to the scripture in James 2 verse 26, “Faith without action is dead.”

    This scripture propelled me to seek ways of ensuring people go to bed with a full stomach.

    Welcome to the Kingdom Business Podcast. For the transformation of unemployed youth through the Tsoha Africa Skills Hub’s artisan training, entrepreneurship activities, and events for a prosperous society. Connect on LInkedIn · Solid Gold Podcasts and Audiobooks Website

    At a very young age, my family went through an incredibly traumatic experience. Not understanding the implications of that as a young child, this influenced many negative decisions in my life, leading to self-sabotage. After 30 years of repeating the same pattern, I decided to speak about it and get help during this journey. I realised how powerful the mind is, and that communicating and talking is the first step of this ladder to success.

    My grandfather owned a trading store in a small village in Newcastle where he sold a variety of products. I have fond memories of being awakened by Coca-Cola and Albany bread trucks delivering their products. I was about 8 years old and I was already very brand conscious. I can still picture the captivating Mobil Gas advert featuring the red flying horse. I was drawn to that ad, and as I grew older I realised that my affinity for that brand and that of Coca-Cola was not coincidental. There was science to it. This piqued my curiosity leading me to pursue my in-depth study all the way to Masters level. Eventually, I founded my brand leadership company.

    I am Bongi Bako. Welcome to Brand Boss, a podcast where we engage with conversations with esteemed brands and brand builders to help you build robust brands that will endure for the next 100 years. Solid Gold Podcasts and Audiobooks Website
