We visit with Ajay Shamdasani and Jonathan Armstrong, both award-winning international podcasters. In this inaugural episode of the Compliance Podcast Network Agora Awards, Tom introduces two guests, Ajay Shamdasani and Jonathan Armstrong, both leaders in compliance and podcasting. Ajay, a veteran writer, editor, and researcher based in Hong Kong, discusses his background, the inception of his podcasting career, and the themes explored in his shows Regulatory Ramblings and Reglex Perspectives. His approach emphasizes the art of conversation and engaging discussions on law, regulation, and technology. Jonathan Armstrong, a UK data privacy and protection expert, shares insights into his podcasting journey with shows like Life with GDPR and Tech Law 10. He elaborates on how his background in broadcasting as a child influenced his podcasting style today.
