Season 2 | Episode 34 | The One With the Human Mannequin

This week on How I Failed in Business, we’re back, and we’re easing in the only way we know how: a bit of life admin, big plans for the year ahead, and stories that quickly spiral into “how did we even get here?” territory.

We kick things off by catching up on what we got up to over the break and the goals we've been setting for the year ahead — the realistic ones, the ambitious ones, and the ones we’ll probably laugh about later.

Then we’re joined by Ryan Faulkner and John Mark from 42 Risk Management, who bring the chaos in the best possible way. From working security on the doors to concerts, festivals, and high-profile clients, they share some genuinely unbelievable stories!

We also dig into how Ryan and John Mark built 42 Risk Management, how they balance the business together, and how they push, challenge, and motivate each other when things get tough.

And... Ryan and Rob take a trip down memory lane, reminiscing about the first time they met, at a divorce party, with Ryan working the bar and Rob working as a naked butler.

In this episode, expect:

A catch-up and goals for the year ahead 🎯
