Join the Two Russells – Quirk and Jervis – as they sit down with Ben Madden, six-year Fine & Country licensee and founder of Digital Sparks.

In this candid conversation, Ben opens up about his inspiration behind the Boys Club – a safe space for male property professionals to talk openly about whatever life throws their way. He also shares his insights on the consumer appetite, authenticity, and personal branding.

Tune in for a look back on Ben's career, his impact in our industry and much more.

Serge talks candidly about the death of his young daughter and the challenges that he had leading up to that from her birth issues that should have been noted and remedied during his wife’s pregnancy. We discuss divorce, depression and more and once again, we reveal a person that has shrugged off the worst of things and somehow comes through as not only a successful international estate agent selling homes for millions, but a thoroughly nice guy too.

Grab the tissues once again for a teary half hour of the Two Russells and their probe into the industry’s most incredible of people.

A story of deep emotion, personal loss and regret from Matt but also a lesson in learning from such.

Matt lost his older brother when he was at Uni and his last conversation with him on the phone was not great. But a trip to somewhere that you wouldn’t expect, years later, became the catalyst for Matt’s change of approach to life.

This is compelling stuff.

Colby is a smart cookie.

He founded GetAgent with his business partner to help home sellers understand and choose the best agent for their needs. This proposition is perhaps misunderstood by estate agents themselves and this in depth interview with Colby explains why they should embrace his business and not think it's a rival to them.

Frankly, if their performance warrants it, they will be shortlisted for would sellers and placed in pole position. GetAgent spends £6m a year on marketing and therefore agents receive the benefit of that.

As to Colby himself, instead of Uni, a stint of 'Stockholm Syndrome' then brought him back to the UK where his entrepreneurial spirit could be unleashed on the world of property.

A new dad, how has being a father affected his appetite for risk, we wondered?

£1.63 away from bankruptcy. Well, such a challenge rather focuses the mind it seems.

If ever there was a tale of perseverance and indefatigability it’s that of Simon Leadbetter, former marketing boss at Knight Frank and at Countrywide and now guru to estate agents where he offers his famous ’30 years of marketing in a day’ to the ambitious amongst you.30 years?

We get his whole journey into just 30 minutes right here…

Nervous public speaker? This episode of the Two Russells profiles Vicky Bibris, boss of Location Location and her challenges around confidence and speaking in public.

Plus, another deeply personal account of her sexuality and how telling her family was far from easy.

Our second 'straight from the stage' interview at the WiEA conference 2025 and this one's a shocker.

An Deckers jokes that she is the most wanted lettings agent in London but was once on the Most Wanted list - by Interpol.

Watch to find out how the latter became the former.
