Sam Dixon of CWAC Labour (currently dissolved), found time in her busy schedule to chat with me ahead of the big day on Thursday. We covered Boundaries, the NHS, Sewage, the imoprtance of Pragmatism in politics, why Kier is purposefully being boring and why Chester is the fabulous place that it is.

Mike's journey to Pavey Ark from Llandudno triggered a lot of memories of the North West. You might even think that Place roulette was a fix - it isn't. Mike is a true Maps fan - it was a pleasure to discuss his work with maps and get some insight in how he would make this journey as a mapping professional.

Chester South and Eddisbury's candidate for the General Election took time out to answer some low level questions about the Liberal Democrat outlook both nationally and locally. We touched on Proportional Representation, Connectivity (floats my boat), Education, Modern Languages, parades and discussed without saying it, exactly what the Romans have done for Chester. Great bloke, great chat

Katie brought some interesting ideas about Rich Pictures and navigating uncertainty (with Camels) in this episode as she journeyed from Walvis Bay to Llandudno Pier. We used Katie's expertise to carve out some thinking time and discussed, Mental Maps, Coaching, Hinterlands, Ecotones and the value of slow ways.

Maps or Politics? It's all Politics..... Nick braved the fresh breeze to talk through a few things with me about politics and specifically local politics in Chester. The format is simple, Favourite National Policy, Local Policy, Radio Station, Chester Event, Wort/most embarrassing National & local policy and the Highly recommended info source. Wondering if you'd vote Green and if they have more to offer than just legalising cannabis? Find out here.

Managed to catch up with James who is on a mission with the Outward Bound Trust to give more young people an outdoor education. Cracking conversation about adventure, maps as a metaphor for life. Food and specifically fell food and the attitude of always exploring and adventuring - what else is there?

The CEO of The Survey Association Rachel sat down with me to talk music and adventure plotted clearly on a mapping background. A master of creativity and doing, it was a pleasure to talk to Rachel and create some sparks of ideas on how to promote our shared profession of Survey to a wider audience.

A shared interest of doing connected myself with Steve, who in his words, is someone that helps people to understand why their customers feel what they feel and do what they do. This is clearly a process that needs maps. Steve described his journey to the Isle of Wight and we touched lightly on climbing, politics and customer journey mapping.

Neil, a massive fan of simplyfying tech, raised himself from his deathbed to talk Baddie Core, Steam Punk and Fusion and linked it to maps, navigating and journeying bewteen Hallstatt in Austria to India's Taj Mahal. Off the cuff exploration in a pod - what more could you want?

The link was loose, but you should all know that the link is always loose in the What's the Point podcast. Justin is a Roadmap Hero. A seasoned product management and road mapping expert passinate about helping technology teams do their best work. Of course he loves Maps!
