The Gregg Wallace Scandal, London's Phone Thieves & The Ultimate Attention Hack | The Emma Guns Show

In this week's Bullet Points, I discuss the Gregg Wallace scandal that has been a huge topic in the UK this week. I share my thoughts having worked with Gregg previously.
As London is 'crowned' the Phone Theft Capital of Europe, I share how a trip to London changed my perspective and how it has influenced my behaviour in the city.
Finally, I share a useful hack that might help you focus more. Johann Hari and I discussed attention span on the show a while ago and you can listen to that here: podcasts.apple...

A hello for the algorithm. I actually listen via my phone’s podcast app.

This is so interesting! Glad you found the show!

Hi Emma, I’m a fairly newcomer to your platforms and just wanted to say I enjoy your content and find you very engaging.
I also do not condone Greg’s behaviour and have described it as Benny Hill ish, very school boy playground stuff and although I have never used the term “read the room” I do think it applies to him and he just doesn’t do that.
I was planning on visiting London myself today and I’m exactly the same with my phone, only getting it out if I’m in a shop, why do so many people make it easy for the thieves?
I totally believe social media is to blame for my short attention span, I would never had watched TV whilst scrolling through my phone, my other half moans but I could look at it as being quite a skill 😂
Anyway keep up the good work and your top looks great ❤

I love this! I agree with you re: Gregg and I'm so interested in your experience of London and phones too. Thank you so much for watching!

Actually JUST finished Stolen Focus (fresh after Magic Pill - both phenomenal). I've heard someone suggest the audiobook with print combo before but have yet to give it a go. I've been on a bit of an audiobook kick so I may just try it. All the best 🖤

[@TheEmmaGunsShow]

Johann's research is, in my opinion, phenomenal. Yes, give it a go and let me know if it enhances the experience and/or information retention.

Love the top and the bag 😂

[@TheEmmaGunsShow]

Thank you! The bag is from Next, would you believe, and the top is Albaray.

I genuinely thought inappropriate comments about or towards women were a thing of the past but how wrong I was. Men are constantly making derogatory or homophobic remarks on the women’s football pages, it’s like they’re threatened and feel emasculated by strong beautiful women who play a sport that they claim is theirs and hate the fact that some of them prefer a female partner. I just challenged a man on I’m a celebrity fan page who stated his sexual fantasy about Colleen which was followed by several other men agreeing or supporting this. A few women tore them to shreds but had one woman condoning it which is why it’s still happening. Women need to be supportive of other women and challenge men that think this behaviour is ok. We’ve come a long way so let’s not lose our power.

[@TheEmmaGunsShow]

I 100% agree. As a woman, you don't realise your role in this and I suspect that's why it's why a lot of the women who speak up are older. They've seen it all before and can see how to stop it and call it out.
