Summary

About Built It. Broke It. Fixed It.

So many podcasts focus only on success, but sometimes we learn more from mistakes, failures, and the difficult moments along the way.

Built It. Broke It. Fixed It. is a relaxed podcast about the real side of business, life and everything that comes with trying to build something. Hosted by Chris Carroll, Vladeta Radovanovic and Anthony Leung, this podcast looks at what running a business is really like behind the scenes. Not the polished version.

With over 25 years of combined business experience, they've been through it all, the highs, the lows, building teams, creating culture, defining USPs, marketing, scaling up and everything in between.

Coming from different business and cultural backgrounds, it feels more like sitting down in a coffee shop for an honest chat than a corporate interview. There's humour, different opinions, real stories and plenty of moments most business owners will relate to. We want to keep it lighthearted, but the messages are real.

We talk about the real issues, employing people, leadership, growth, mistakes, failures, setbacks and the things that don't always get spoken about. The aim is simple, to remind you that you are not alone and to keep going.

Because sometimes you build it, sometimes you break it, and sometimes fixing it is where the real growth happens.

  • When Your Business Nearly Breaks You
    3 Nov 2026

    Ever looked at your business and thought, would it just be easier to get a job?

    In this episode of Built It. Broke It. Fixed It., Chris, Vlad and Ant talk about the moments that made them question whether it was all worth it. Chris shares how a client going into liquidation left nearly £70,000 unpaid. Vlad recalls a long-standing client trying to take his team. And Ant talks about nearly six months without work and seriously considering becoming an Uber driver.

    They discuss putting too much reliance on one client, using personal savings to pay wages, and why rebuilding your confidence can be harder than recovering the money. There’s also an honest conversation about protecting your business, finding support from people who understand, and giving yourself a bit of credit.

    We hope we did a good job.

  • Is AI Ruining Lead Generation?
    29 Sep 2026

    Nobody likes opening their inbox to another automated sales pitch. So why are so many businesses still sending them?

    In this episode of Built It. Broke It. Fixed It., Chris, Vlad and Ant are joined by lead generation expert Jenny Ashdown to talk about what happens when everyone uses the same tactics. They discuss AI-written outreach, why approaches that once worked lose their impact, and the difference between a long list of leads and people who might actually become customers.

    Is it time to rethink how we generate leads? We hope we did a good job.

  • Friends, Family and Business: Can It Really Work?
    16 Sep 2026

    Hiring friends and family sounds like a great idea. You already trust them, you know them well and you want to see them succeed. But what happens when business starts affecting the relationship?

    In this episode of Built It. Broke It. Fixed It., Chris, Vlad and Ant share their experiences of working with siblings, partners and close friends, including the times it worked and the times it became complicated.

    They discuss setting boundaries from day one, agreeing responsibilities properly and why trust alone is never enough when money, pressure and difficult decisions are involved.

    Can working with friends and family really work, or is it a risk best avoided?

    We hope we did a good job.
