The Four-Day Work Week: Episode 1
Manage episode 358665770 series 2343033
Welcome to the first episode of The Tortoise - a podcast that digs deep into the power of slow.
Brooke and Ben are back with the first full episode of The Tortoise, and it's a good'un. They start by talking about what you can expect from the ploddie, and then dig in to today's juicy topic: is a four-day work week feasible?
This is a hot-button issue right now, as many companies around the world look to the results of a recent six-month four-day working week trial. Ben talks through his own experiment with trying to establish one, and the benefits and challenges of doing so as a self-employed person, while Brooke puts her idealist hat on and talks through a couple of interesting case studies.
They also dig into the topic of hobbies - What are they? Do we need to try and improve at them? What happens if we want to turn a hobby into an income? - and discover that it's harder than we think to separate productivity from leisure.
Brooke also gives an update on her 1% experiment and Ben talks about his Japanese lessons as his current form of continual improvement.
