37 分钟VVT Sounds Music Radio Podcasts Hello, what an exciting day today for us.
You're listening to the first episode of our new podcast,
the Big Boss interview brought to you by us, the BBC business team here in Salford.
I'm Will Bayne and each week you'll hear myself,
Felicity Hanna or Sean Farrington speaking in depth to one of the UK's biggest business leaders and it's our big launch day today.
So, Sean, our captain is in charge of it all.
No pressure, Sean, to kick it off then.
Fortunately, we're already done.
So the pressure of the actual interview off just the pressure of the reviews from the listeners from our bosses ourselves about what we're doing.
And it is exciting, isn't it?
Because we are able to tell everybody a little bit more about the insights we get from some of those bosses of the biggest businesses.
Not necessarily the biggest,
most influential businesses could be the most influential brands that impact us in so many ways with the careers that we have or the decisions we're making on a weekly basis of what to buy.
and for episode one.
a great choice, really,
a company that I think will touch a whole load of people's lives right across the country.
AO.com really came in to kind of shake up the way we buy, well,
to start with fridges and freezers, but then any kind of electrical items online, right, as well.
And so you've been speaking to John Roberts, who's the boss there,
but not just the boss, the founder of the company as well.
