We're here to dive deep into the world of cars, sharing practical advice and engaging discussions that'll keep you revved up. Make sure to subscribe and hit that notification bell, so you never miss an episode! In our bustling "shoe box studio" at PowerWorks Garage, we've got some incredible topics to explore today. Let me share a personal experience with you, folks. Remember when we discussed radiators and coolants in one of our previous podcasts? Not long after, I encountered a coolant leak in my car. It was a wake-up call, reminding me that those plastic tanks attached to radiators can develop cracks over time, leading to annoying leaks. It's a common issue, but one that's often overlooked. Now, let's get down to business and talk about handling coolant leaks because, trust me, you don't want to mess around with this. Glenn, my man, take it away. Glenn emphasizes the importance of strict adherence to the rules when dealing with coolant leaks. He warns about the dangers of trying to top up coolant by the roadside. Opening the hood in such scenarios? Not a good idea, folks. It can lead to additional risks. Glenn advises that if your car starts overheating, turn it off immediately to prevent further damage. Safety first, always! Here's a valuable insight from yours truly, folks. If your car overheats, please make sure to place a reflective triangle safe from your vehicle before even thinking about opening the hood. Safety should be our top priority. You can just pull over to the right side of the road and turn off that engine immediately. Glenn chimes in with deeper knowledge of the repercussions of multiple overheating incidents. He shares a Land Rover case where overheating led to head gasket failure. And let me tell you, that's a nightmare. If not addressed promptly, it can even lead to hydraulicking the engine. Trust me, you don't want that bill! Repairing a head gasket can cost you a pretty penny, folks. But fear not! We're here to help you avoid those hefty repair costs. By following the correct protocol when dealing with an overheating car, you can save yourself from major headaches down the road. So, if you're as passionate about cars as we are and want to gain insights into car maintenance, repairs, and everything automobile-related, tune in to the PowerWorks podcast with James and Glenn. Join us on our car-filled journey, and let's rev up our engines together! That's all for today, folks. Stay safe on the road, and we'll catch you in the next episode of the PowerWorks podcast.

James here👋 In our recent Powerworks podcast, my co-host Glenn Power and I dove headfirst into some seriously juicy motor talk!🔧🚗 We started again by talking EVs and the reality of the Electric Vehicle transition. 😅 Yeah, we all know it's the talk of the town, but we're here to break it down in a way you might not have heard before. Glenn doesn't mince words - he's skeptical about this 'green revolution.'⚡️🌍 But trust me, the guy knows his stuff, and you'll find yourself nodding to his insights! Between our serious discussions, we found time to chat about the joy of driving manual cars 🚗🕹️. In an age where automatics rule the roost, we reminisced about how different it feels to drive a stick. There's a charm, a romance to it. 💭💕 Our chatter inevitably led us to the topic of car regulations. That might sound boring, but Glenn's perspective fascinated me. He's a little miffed (putting it lightly!) about the "politics" involved in car manufacturing. You'll want to hear his take on it!👨‍🔧🚦 Then, we had a little fun and talked about the Mitsubishi Expander. Sure, it's spacious and functional, but let's say that Glenn wasn't a fan... at all! 😂 Is it a Minecraft-inspired design or just a bad entertainment system? You decide! 🚐🎮 To round it all off, we even dove into the debate about the Toyota Prado vs Mitsubishi Pajero. Two rugged SUVs, a world of difference! Glenn wasn't pulling any punches here!🥊🚙 This conversation is filled with deep insights, hilarious anecdotes, and everything. So if you're curious about cars or want to hear two buddies chat about their favourite topic, hop in and join the ride! 🚀 --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thejamescast/message

James here! I recently had an interesting conversation with Olga Nayda, the co-founder of Gloc.al, a tech startup. Olga is an amazing example of a game-changer in the digital age. Olga shared her struggles as an entrepreneur, from encountering resistance in online communities to facing difficulties in getting valuable user feedback. But, she took it all in stride and used a unique approach called the 'Wizard of Oz' methodology, which helped her simulate user interaction and gather feedback efficiently. An inspiring part of our conversation was hearing about Olga's experience conducting a workshop for young and motivated entrepreneurs. These kids showed an incredible amount of creativity and entrepreneurial spirit which left us in awe. Our chat concluded with a look into the future of Gloc.al. With new advisors on board and a focus on the hospitality and tourism sectors, the future looks promising. However, Olga acknowledged that the b2b world is a new ball game, requiring relationship-building that's distinct from her b2c experience. Overall, my conversation with Olga was enlightening and left me inspired. Here's to more such encounters with the movers and shakers of the tech world! --- --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thejamescast/message

James here. In this DocTalk podcast short Dr Jenna and I had a fantastic conversation about fillers. We discovered that fillers could enhance lips and significantly improve skin hydration levels when used correctly. However, it's important to remember that fillers should only be a complementary part of your beauty routine rather than the focus. Of course, fillers are only for some people. Jenna shares that the beauty of fillers lies in their ability to enhance and restore, not just inflate. She prefers to keep her patients looking fresh and natural by occasionally using a touch of Botox. We also discussed how overly plumped faces can make someone appear older than their actual age, and we debunked several myths about fillers. Did you know that fillers can last 6 months to 2 years and break down evenly once injected?

James here! 👋 Today, we're delving into the fascinating world of needling in this podcast short episode of the DocTalk podcast, along with Dr. Jenna Burton. Needling is an excellent, low-cost, non-surgical treatment that promises impressive results without any downtime! 💉✨ In our chat, we discuss the magic of needling and how it helps rejuvenate your skin, erase acne scars, and banish pigmentation spots. ✨ By creating micro-traumas, needling stimulates the skin's natural repair process and also creates pathways for beneficial products to penetrate deeper into your skin. 🌟 Moreover, the effects from needling last; it's not a temporary fix but a solution to the problem! Dr. Jenna shares some intriguing information on two types of micro-needling: dry needling and needling with products inside. 🎭 While it may sound daunting, the process is comfortable with numbing cream, and the needles are smaller than you'd think! 🔍 We also explore the regimen for anti-aging treatments and maintenance, which will give you a new lease on your skin life. 🌱 Three key takeaways: 1️⃣ Needling is a low-cost, non-surgical treatment with minimal downtime. 🕐 2️⃣ It creates natural, long-lasting improvements in the skin by treating acne scarring, pigmentation and enabling deeper penetration of beneficial skin products. 💯 3️⃣ The results from needling are natural, and the problem, once treated, does not return. 🎉 --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thejamescast/message

James Here! 👋 In this latest podcast short episode of DocTalk, Dr. Jenna Burton and I dive into a topic many wonder about the right time to start anti-aging treatments like Botox and fillers. 🧖‍♀️💉 The consensus? It all depends on you! 🎯 Those with a healthy lifestyle who avoid sun damage and take good care of their skin might not need these treatments early on. Instead, these treatments are best utilized to restore what's been lost over time – usually kicking in around our late 20s and early 30s. The industry's take on Botox and fillers has dramatically shifted in the last decade. 🔄 No longer are we injecting 18-19-year-olds to prevent aging, but rather using these treatments to subtly dial back the hands of time when people start feeling the need to look fresher. 💫💁‍♀️ Overuse of Botox, especially, can lead to issues like developing antibodies against it and muscle thinning, so caution is advised. Remember, your skin in your early 20s is still producing collagen and maintaining elasticity – there isn't necessarily a need to intervene at that stage. The key takeaway is: start when you have a need, not a moment sooner! 😌 --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thejamescast/message

Hey there, it's your host James Piecowye, bringing you another insightful episode of our We Will Fix It podcast short! This time around, Colin Thomas and I get our hands dirty (not literally!) and dive into the nitty-gritty of toilet connections. 🛠️💧 In this episode, we've got something you don't want to miss! We're talking about a common yet overlooked aspect of home plumbing: the toilet connector. This unassuming piece of hardware can cause big trouble when it fails, especially in hot climates where the rubber seals can crack and break over time.🔥 We also discuss the interesting observation I made about an old elbow joint and how its placement could potentially impact your sewage pipe. We ponder over the need to raise the joint a smidgeon - a quarter of an inch maybe - for a smooth flow. 🤔💭📏 What's more, there are three different styles of toilet connectors: the straight one, the slight offset, and the big offset one. You need to know which one fits your needs perfectly and we keep them all handy in our van. 🚐🧰 Oh, and don't get me started on the irony of having to schedule another visit just because the hardware wasn't replaced when the toilet was. If you're replacing the toilet, why not replace the hardware that goes with it, right? 🚽🔄 Stay tuned for more insights like this! Don't forget to hit subscribe to keep up with our podcast shorts.

👋 Hey folks, James here! This short clip from the PowerWorks podcast is a must-watch for all motorheads and curious car owners. My co-host, Glenn Power, and I discuss a common phenomenon: the mysterious disappearance of torque from older vehicles. You know what I mean, that Nissan Sunny or your beloved Jeep just isn't quite the sports car it used to be. 😏 🚗 In this episode, we dive into the mechanics behind torque - that force which throws you back into your seat when you hit the gas. Glenn gives a crystal-clear explanation of how, as your engine wears down over time, it becomes less efficient and, unfortunately, torque takes a hit. This leads to the sad reality where you floor the pedal and... well, not much happens. 😅 But fear not, we also discuss some potential solutions for extending the life of your engine and preserving that precious torque! 📌 Top Takeaways: 1️⃣ Torque, as Glenn explains, is the effort you put into getting the horsepower to move the car. As your engine wears down, torque decreases due to less compression. 2️⃣ Engine wear doesn't always happen uniformly - factors like defects in spark plugs, ignition coils, and fuel injectors can cause more wear in certain cylinders. 3️⃣ Regular oil changes can help maintain engine life and, as a result, help preserve torque. Clean oil can help control carbon deposits and prevent oil burn. ❗️ So, if you want to keep that Nissan Sunny or Jeep feeling like a sports car for as long as possible, buckle up and join us on this torque-full journey! 🎥 Don't forget to hit that Like button, share this video with your car-loving buddies, and subscribe to our channel for more exciting motor talks! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thejamescast/message

Welcome to the We Will Fix It podcast short, where Colin Thomas and I, James Piecowye, talk about all things home maintenance.  In today's episode, we're discussing the joys and pains of having a kitchen island, and what you need to consider before installing one.   Colin shares that a kitchen island can be a magic addition to your home - it's not just a place for food prep, but also a gathering spot for family and friends. However, installing an island can be a huge challenge, especially if you're retrofitting one into an existing kitchen.   To make sure you're prepared, Colin recommends three things: water supply, water waste, and power. You'll need power for appliances like dishwashers, and water supply and waste for sinks and filters. But the biggest challenge is drainage - you need the right angle for the pipes, and you'll likely need to dig a channel through your floor to make it work.  And that's not all - once you've got the utilities in place, you'll need to choose the right tiles for your island.  Colin shares his own experience of having to rip up and replace tiles due to a shoddy installation job, and warns that this can be an ongoing issue.  So, before you decide to install a kitchen island, make sure you've thought through all the challenges and costs involved. But if you do it right, it can be a wonderful addition to your home.   Highlights:   Installing a kitchen island can be magical, but it comes with its own set of challenges:   -Consider water supply, water waste, power, and drainage before installing an island   -Choosing the right tiles can also be a challenge, and shoddy installation can lead to ongoing issues --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thejamescast/message

James Piecowye here, and welcome to this We Will Fix It podcast short featuring Colin Thomas and his recent mishap with his pool cleaning system.  Colin thought he knew what he was doing when he attempted to use the automatic waste system to fix an overflowing pool after heavy rains.  However, he made a few critical mistakes, such as not turning off the pump and reversing the order of the waste valve and the selector for the pool filter.  The result? The high-pressure pump caused a blockage and shattered the clear cover of the filter. Luckily, Colin was able to find a replacement cover with the help of his purchasing team and his daughter Ruby, and everything is back in working order. Colin admits that he should have read the instructions from his dad more carefully, but he and his wife Natalie have a division of labour when it comes to pool maintenance. Lesson learned?  Always read the instructions carefully before attempting any home improvement project.  And remember to turn off the pump, open the waste valve first, and then put the multi-selector from filter to waste before turning the pump back on. Highlight 1: Colin's failed attempt at using the automatic waste system for his pool and the resulting mishap. Highlight 2: The importance of reading instructions carefully and following the correct order when attempting DIY projects. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thejamescast/message

Colin Thomas talks about using social media at WeWillFixIt.   Colin Thomas   Well, no, we're not. Let's be honest. So we have a marketing team. And the marketing team said, we recently realized that what works really well is YouTube talking. So now, if we did another session last week, I think it was where we literally were just told, right, you need to discuss this topic. And what they've worked out now is, whatever you do, do not give us a script. I can't do it. I'm like a goldfish, I can do six seconds beyond that. I'm absolutely stuffed. If you give me a subject area, I can give you five hours if you want it, it's absolutely fine. But make me talk a script. I'm never going to be an actor. Can't remember lines for love or money, but subject areas tend to work quite well. So that's exactly what we're doing now. which coincidentally fits quite well with Instagram where it's not really supposed to be quite so pre-planned. So we're coming away from the highly polished advert style that we used to do and instead making it a little bit more air and now it seems to be connecting really well with people.   That's a real challenge, isn't it? And that's what I constantly say to podcasters I say like you keep it real. Yeah, absolutely real as soon as you look, scripting is good, and having an idea and preparing and doing research all good. But at the end of the day, your content has to sound real. If it just sounds like you're reading a script. Yeah, nobody's gonna listen to that. That's exactly it. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thejamescast/message

Welcome back to the We Will Fix It podcast, where we share stories and tips about home improvement and DIY projects.  In this podcast, Colin Thomas talks about his recent DIY mishap with his pool cleaning system and the plumbing issues he's been having in his home in Dubai. Colin's pool was overflowing after heavy rains, and he attempted to use the automatic waste system to fix the problem. However, he made a few critical mistakes, such as not turning off the pump, and he ended up breaking the clear cover of his pool pump filter. Fortunately, he was able to find a replacement cover at a local shop and get his pool back in working order. Colin also came across a website that claimed to have a DIY solution for heating your pool using hula hoops, noodles, and a black bin liner. However, he and our host agree that this method is not very effective and would not work for most pools. Instead, Colin suggests using a solar water heater panel to heat the water flowing through the pool pump system. Moving on to plumbing issues, Colin explains why copper pipes can be a problem in Dubai, where the desalinated water has more salt than in Europe, causing corrosion. He emphasizes the importance of using the right grade of copper piping and how retrofitting an island in a kitchen can be a challenge. To properly install an island in your kitchen, you need a water supply, water waste, and power to be able to do it, and you may need an almighty channel going through your floor. He also talks about the importance of having the right angle for drainage and how it's not a patch job. Lastly, Colin discusses how he uses his kitchen island as a utility center for his daily life and how it's a great place for family gatherings. So, if you're looking to heat your pool, skip the hula hoops and go for a solar water heater panel instead. And always read the instructions carefully before attempting any home improvement project. Thanks for tuning in to the We Will Fix It podcast.  Two highlights include the DIY pool heating solution using hula hoops and noodles being debunked and Colin's advice on installing an island in your kitchen.  #DIY, #homeimprovement, #plumbing, #poolmaintenance --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thejamescast/message

Of course, you have heard about dumpster diving, right?  Well in this podcast it's not what you might think. It's actually a really interesting way to learn about the world of repairs and what goes on behind the scenes. And that's exactly what Glenn Power and I are doing on our latest podcast, Powerworks Dumpster Dive.   In this short episode, we take a tour of the Powerworks garage dumpster and show some of the things we found in the recycling bin.  We start off by looking at an engine block, which is a complete disaster. Glenn explains that if your warning light comes on while you're driving, you should stop immediately. If you continue to drive, it could cause complete engine failure, which can be expensive to repair.   We then move on to a controlled suspension on a Landrover, which looks like it's in good condition, but in reality, the ball joint is completely exposed and has no rubber around it to keep the moisture and dust out. Excessive movement on this arm could lead to extra strain on the other arms and cause your car to wear out faster.  We also talk about brake discs, and how important it is to measure their thickness to make sure they're safe to use. If they're below the minimum thickness, they can't be reused, which can be dangerous.   Finally, we show a radiator with a plastic tank that has a seal between the aluminum and plastic. This tank can fail under the pressure of holding the hose on, which can block the radiator or take it out of the system completely. Plastic is cheaper than metal, but it's also more prone to failure, which is why it's important to keep an eye on it.   So there you have it, folks!  Dumpster diving can teach you a lot about the world of repairs, and it's definitely worth checking out Glenn and James' podcast if you want to learn more. Here are some highlights from this episode:   If your warning light comes on while you're driving, stop immediately.   Excessive movement on suspension arms can cause extra strain on other parts of your car.   Always measure your brake discs' thickness to make sure they're safe to use.   Plastic is cheaper than metal, but it's also more prone to failure, so keep an eye on it. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thejamescast/message

And myself James microwave had a nice conversation that if you listen to this podcast, you've heard it very recently about vacations and summer air conditioning. And we had a good talk. My advice didn't. James, let's build the advice was sage, it worked. Excellent. Everything should have gone as planned. In fact, when we got home, and we get into our house, and so there's two The first thing happens is I'm open.

Thankfully, one of them I couldn't get in. And it was really like, come on. And you know, and it's late at night. And fortunately, I didn't have any children with me because that would have added to it. But I get into the house. And the advice was leave a unit on downstairs. Leave a unit on upstairs, open up your doors. Maybe keep an extractor fan on maybe keep the fan on. Have it set at you know, I don't know. 2829? Yeah,  Colin Thomas   well, that's a little bit too. What actually said was just one upstairs, right? Yeah. For the simple reason that cooler air is obviously going to go down. Okay, that will help the process of circulation.

As we're walking up the stairs that halfway point. It's like, oh, Houston, we have a problem was like oh, and I don't Okay, well, you know, I'm looking at the the fan is going so the air is circulating upstairs. But it is near as I can figure so we had an air conditioner failure. And I as near as I can figure must have failed pretty early on in the summer because I have never come home to the upstairs part of my villa being this hot.  Colin Thomas   That's bizarre considering admittedly the circulation wouldn't be nowhere near as good. Yeah, but if you've got a fan that's operating in one room with all doors open downstairs, upstairs, that should have been enough to move enough air. I would have thought too, too.

They're like five dirhams for a box of like, 1500. Right?  Colin Thomas   Have you used it? Ever, ever? No, it's a definite you must drill.

Even if you've done two or three, you will have that effect. Back I'm dead easy. Use it all the time. Not here without a doubt. So drill a hole. Normally six mil is about right spot.

She has dedicated her life to cross-cultural, multi-disciplinary, global collaborations spotlighting and celebrating different cultures through the arts. Her passion and drive for representing other cultures, has seen her work and those cultures be celebrated by millions all over the world. To write about everything Spira has done and achieved would be a book, but there are Grammy nominations, award-winning world-touring live cultural theatre productions, millions of YouTube hits, mass participation social Impact initiatives and now a Golden Jubilee Fine Art Series and exclusive NFT drop. Pietra Mello-Pittman was born in Rio de Janeiro to a Brazilian mother and English father. Growing up in England she trained in both Ice skating and Ballet to the point at which Pietra had to choose her path. Pietra was one of the rare few to win a place with the Royal Ballet Company after entering full-time ballet training, with the Royal Ballet School, at the latest possible stage at 16 years old. She performed all the classics, created roles in new productions and has performed all over the world with the Royal Ballet including at The Mariinsky and Bolshoi Theatres in Russia and in Cuba with Carlos Acosta. After winning the Ursula Morton Choreography Competition in 2001, while at the Royal Ballet School in London, Pietra started on the path to becoming a producer through her subsequent choreographies. Passionate about cross-cultural, multi-disciplinary collaborations and carrying with her, the high standards she is accustomed to from her 13-year professional life as a ballerina, Pietra retired from the Royal Ballet in 2015 to focus on producing for Sisters Grimm. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thejamescast/message

Until now, whenever automotive designers wanted to draw attention to highlights, they often used chrome details and strips – on the inside and outside. For a few years now, the trend has additionally been moving towards new light elements in the vehicle interior, but most of all on the outside of the vehicle. “Light is the new chrome,” Klaus Zyciora explains as the Volkswagen Group Head of Design and former Head of Volkswagen Brand Design. “Light plays a major role, especially for an electric vehicle.

More recently, her "Happiness Matters in University" program showed sustainable increases in wellbeing after three months relative to a control group, as well as decreases in the fear of happiness (Lambert, Passmore, & Joshanloo, 2018), while her Kuwait positivity program showed increases relative to a control group in both eudaimonic and hedonic wellbeing at the university and school level (Al Sabah, Lambert, Passmore & Scull, forthcoming).

I love the Lincoln brand and that goes back to my uncles coming to Toronto in the mid-70s to buy these giant Lincoln Town Cars to take back to Regina. When Sue Nigoghossian at Ford Middle East asked me if wanted to meet Sarah Rae the MD of Lincoln Middle East and talk the Lincoln Experience with a 2019 Nautilus I couldn't say no. We talked Lincoln from the back seat of a Nautilus and then headed to the Al Tayer Lincoln Vitrine, wow.  The automotive ownership experience is being reimagined in Dubai. Sony Elias at Al Tayer Motors introduced me to Keith Phillips the Lincoln sales manager and we had a look around the new home of the Lincoln experience in Dubai.
