I am studying for my masters/cipd level 7 and with working full time and having 2 young children I find it very difficult to read. I had 24 hours to read up on employment status, specifically issues surrounding the gig economy and this gave me a really really good understanding in less than half an hour!! thank you so much. I'm listening to all of your podcasts ad hoc whilst cooking the dinner, driving to work, even bathing the kids.

so helpful!!

I have recently found out about this podcast and been working my way through the impressive previous years' offerings. This podcast has made my walks and commutes my Employment law classroom. As somebody fairly new to HR, the podcast has given me access to EL content which is clear, free of jargon and easy to understand (and memorise). The fact that this resource is free to access is invaluable. Thank you very much Daniel Barnett

Daniel gives absolutely top quality content for free! Who does that? And when he links up with Darren Newman, well that's like my two favourite rock stars getting together.
