In this no-filter episode of Business Babble, Johnny and Mike are back from their mini break in Munich and diving headfirst into the brutal truths facing businesses today.

They unpack the fall of high-street giant River Island, discuss the bold moves of Pure Spa’s Becky Lumsden—who turned her 200-strong team into empowered self-employed mini-franchisees—and explore how brands like Next and Screwfix are thriving by thinking way outside the box.

From rent hikes and minimum wage pressures to consumer apathy and the Amazon effect, this episode is packed with lessons on:

  • 💥 How failing to evolve can kill even the biggest names (Blockbuster, anyone?)
  • 💡 Why bold leadership beats slow decay
  • 🔄 The real difference between businesses that pivot and those that perish
  • 💰 How to spot hidden revenue streams during downturns
  • 🧠 The mindset shift needed to survive rising costs and uncertain economies

This episode is a wake-up call: shape your business—or someone else will.
