The Data Malarkey podcast – and it’s audio-visual twin, the Data Malarkey Show on YouTube – a must-listen, must-watch resource of brilliant data storytelling. If only there were more people in the world with the pragmatic approach taken by my guests, well, there’d be rather less data malarkey about.

Data Malarkey
Most organisations are swimming in data… and still struggling to make sense of it.
In this free webinar, I share the core ideas behind my Using Data Smarter approach - how to ask sharper questions, find genuine insights, and tell stories that actually have an impact.
If you’ve ever felt like you or your organisation could be doing more with the data it already has, this is a good place to start.
It’s not about dashboards. It’s about decisions.
