    The Two Russells with Graham Patterson

    Buying a £5 book online is seamless.Buying a home, one of life’s biggest decisions, often feels chaotic, slow and stacked against the buyer. In Episode 52 of The Two Russells Podcast, Russell Quirk and Russell Jervis are joined by Graham Patterson, Co-Founder of Jitty, the AI-driven property platform aiming to rebuild the homebuying experience from the ground up. After careers designing intuitive digital products at Deliveroo, Graham and his co-founders all bought homes at the same stage of life and shared the same realisation:The system felt broken.Multiple portals to check daily. Endless map searching for schools and lifestyle needs. Unclear transactional processes. No trusted guidance on brokers or conveyancers. And a sense that nobody in the process was truly on the buyer’s side. So, they built Jitty! Not as another portal, but as a property search engine, helping buyers understand homes properly before they even book a viewing. In this episode, Graham shares:• Why property search hasn’t evolved with the internet • How AI can bring clarity and control back to buyers • The reality of raising early-stage funding (including 80 investor conversations) • Support from REA and Google’s AI fund • The pressure, and personal resilience, behind startup life • Advice for anyone considering an entrepreneurial leap Plus, a lighter moment as Graham reveals how he switches off from startup intensity and receives an unexpected musical request from the Russells.

    The Two Russells with Steve Eakins

    From Ceefax Leads… to Instagram IntroductionsOver half a century of podcast studio sessions for Russell and Russell… and the guests keep delivering.This week, Russell Quirk and Russell Jervis are joined by Steve Eakins, Key Partner Director at Lumon, the currency specialist trusted by agents, buyers and investors navigating international property transactions.Often saved in phones as “Steve Currency” or “Steve Money”, Steve works at the point where property and global finance collide, helping clients move funds smoothly when relocating, investing overseas, or returning to the UK.With 17 years at Lumon (a 25-year-old business now 200+ strong), Steve shares remarkable insight into the scale of modern property movement:• £25 million transferred daily• £10 billion moved last year alone• Europe’s strongest demand across Spain, Portugal and France• A growing trend of Brits leaving the UK while Americans increasingly move inAnd crucially, how real transaction data gives a clearer picture of whether the widely reported “millionaires leaving Britain” narrative truly reflects what’s happening on the ground.The conversation explores why currency brokers are now introduced at valuation stage, how better exchange rates and service can secure transactions, and why agents are referring clients earlier than ever.But this episode goes far beyond numbers.Steve talks openly about:• Building a career while navigating dyslexia• Starting out selling Chupa Chups with nothing but a van and an A–Z• Working for free to prove himself at Lumon• The realities of servicing a truly global client base across time zonesFrom first-time overseas buyers transferring £220,000 to multi-million-pound transactions, this is a fascinating look at the hidden engine behind international property deals, and what global money flows reveal about where people are really moving.Insightful, practical, and packed with real-world stories.

    The Two Russells with Annalese Walmsley Sales Director at Kotini

    ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode discusses sexual abuse, coercive control and suicide attempts. For our landmark 50th episode of The Two Russells, we revisit one of the most courageous and unforgettable stories ever shared on the podcast.Annalese Walmsley returns. In Episode 27, she revealed that she had been sexually abused by her father for nine years — and the extraordinary consequences of breaking that silence. This time, she reflects on what happened next. From the anxiety the night before it aired… To the overwhelming response from listeners across the property industry and far beyond… To discovering that sharing her truth may have helped save a life. On the Two Russells platform, a space built for honest conversation within the property world, Annalese chose to speak. Not for headlines, not for sympathy, but for truth. And that truth travelled further than any of us could have imagined. She speaks openly about motherhood, custody battles, grief, resilience, counselling, and the moment the weight finally lifted when silence no longer controlled her. This isn’t sensationalised. It isn’t edited for comfort. It’s raw. It’s human. It’s real. This is not just a follow-up. It’s a testament to the power of speaking out and what can happen when an industry platform becomes something bigger than business.

    The Two Russells with Regina Mangan

    After a relentlessly busy January at Proper PR and Rayner Personnel, we’re back with a powerful international perspective on property and one of our most compelling guests yet. Joining us from Ireland (via Teams) is Regina Mangan, founder of Liberty Blue. In this episode, Regina opens up about: • Why Ireland has no property chains and how that changes everything • A red-hot seller’s market with 57,000 transactions closed last year • Bidding wars, fast conversions, and what the UK can learn from a smaller but highly efficient market • A rental sector in crisis due to chronic lack of supply • The reality of heavy regulation in Ireland and why it actually works Regina’s personal journey is just as gripping. From growing up on a farm to setting up Ireland’s first specialist lettings company at just 24, she shares the reality of making losses for seven years, juggling multiple side jobs, and why failure was never an option. We also talk about: • The bank manager moment you won’t forget • The influence of her mother and the rule of “always keep the front door painted” • Transaction times, fee structures, and why 70% of their clients are first-time buyers • The importance of networking and community in building a resilient agencyPlus, Regina gives us a preview of The Real Estate Agency Summit, taking place on 11 June at Theatre Royal, Waterford.

    The Two Russells and Marc von Grundherr

    We are joined by the force of nature that is Marc von Grundherr, Director of Benham & Reeves. From a business that began in the 1960s with two feuding brothers in neighbouring offices… to a global network spanning London, Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai, Qatar, South Africa, Israel and beyond. Marc gives us the real story behind one of the industry’s most enduring brands. We get into his early property flips, why he’s a self-confessed “control freak in the best way”, the thousand emails a day he reads (yes, including the info@ inbox), and what he thinks is coming for the market in 2026. Plus: sales vs lettings, travelling the world, AI in property, and a few predictions that might surprise you. A fast, funny, high-energy episode. Don’t miss it.

    The Two Russells with Chris Kelly

    This week we’re joined by Chris Kelly, Head of Marketing at John D Wood & Co., the man who went from marketing Pizza Express’s American Hot… to shaping one of London’s most respected prime property brands. If that doesn’t qualify as range, nothing does. Chris has spent three years in post, brought in to boost brand awareness, grow the business, and put marketing back where it belongs: as a driver of profitability, not an overhead. Today, he oversees a seven-strong marketing team, supporting London, country, and an international footprint with the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea forming the crown jewel of their market. Average sale price? £1.5m. In other words: serious prime. What we cover in this episode: • Why effectiveness is Chris’s mantra and the metric every marketing team should be judged by • His career path: agencies, pizza, clothing… and now prime London property• How to actually understand your customer and build campaigns that resonate • Working agency-side across M&S, Disney, Santander and Travelodge all speaking the same marketing language • The brands under the John D Wood umbrella and how he differentiates their personalities• Why agents can run their own social channels… but the brand itself must stay curated • How JDW use AI in marketing execution, visuals and copy, and why in some cases it replaces the need for a creative agency • The brutal truth: 50% of applicants come from Rightmove • The bigger truth: ChatGPT will become a key property search tool • The biggest truth: 26 December is the most pointless day to “launch your sale”….Santa isn’t the biggest lie at Christmas… the Boxing Day Rightmove rush is. • 2026 predictions: a split market, challenges at the top end, huge opportunity for those who get the basics right because “it’s an agent’s market”. And we also learn why Chris believes JDW owe him £100k for his Jeeves & Wooster idea. (We’ll let him explain that one…) A brilliant brand. A brilliant conversation. Another one in the can by The Two Russells

    The Two Russells with Jesper With-Fogstrup

    This week we’re joined by someone who makes leadership look effortless (even though his path was anything but). Jesper With-Fogstrup, CEO of Moneypenny, leads a business serving 16,000 clients across the UK and US, with £75m in revenue and a culture so strong you genuinely have to see it to believe it… beehives, pub, subsidised lunches, sky-high retention… the lot. But it’s Jesper’s story that pulls you in: • Born in Denmark • Couldn’t read or write until he was 10 • Moved constantly as a kid (doctor dad = resilience on tap) • Michigan exchange year that shaped his outlook on diversity • MBA at London Business School • A career spanning travel, public and private companies, private equity, and industries you wouldn’t expect • And a behind-the-scenes look at how Compare the Meerkat actually came to be He calls himself the Chief Unblocking Officer, keeps a ‘did I make a difference?’ diary at 5.20pm every day, and approaches AI with curiosity rather than fear. The Two Russells tried their best to get him to spill the beans on Moneypenny’s future exit plans… Jesper smiled. And held his line. Beautifully. This is a warm, surprising, generous conversation with a leader who genuinely makes people better.

    The Two Russells with Gareth Samples

    It took him seven interviews to land a trainee job.He started on £1,500 basic and £35 a deal commission per property, armed with nothing more than a script and a bit of attitude.He worked 8am to 8pm, seven days a week and loved every second of it.Fast forward a few decades and he’s now CEO of The Property Franchise Group, overseeing more than 2,000 offices and a £400 million market cap.This is the story of Gareth Samples —the man who failed school, failed college, and decided that failure wasn’t for him.He’s been a negotiator, a manager, a managing director, a “retired” restaurant investor…And now the guy driving one of the biggest PLCs in the business.In this episode, Gareth joins Russell Quirk and Russell Jervis to talk:•⁠ ⁠How he turned failure into fuel•⁠ ⁠Why recruiting great people is his superpower•⁠ ⁠What the corporate world gets wrong about culture•⁠ ⁠The egos, red flags and realities behind today’s industryAnd why, at 50, he decided he had one big job left in him.From £1,500 basic to £1 billion turnover — powered by old-school graft.Proof that success isn’t luck.It’s earned.

    The Two Russells with Sam Cerrone

    ⚠️ Trigger warning: SuicideIn this episode, The Two Russells are joined by Sam Cerrone of Cerrone Estates one of EXP’s top performers, part of its elite icon group, and a true million-pound agent, having billed over £1m in fees in just five years. Sam’s journey is far from ordinary. She started out as a hairdresser, then rose through the ranks in estate agency, running the largest Countrywide branch in Selly Oak before being abruptly let go by email on a Sunday night. That setback didn’t stop her, instead, she built a business from the ground up, powered by personality, organisation, and especially Instagram. With 12k followers and 85% of her leads coming from social media, her face is now her brand. She’s so in demand that she sometimes pauses new instructions — with clients waiting until she’s ready to sell their home. But behind the success is resilience shaped by a turbulent childhood. Growing up in a council house, losing her dad to suicide, helping raise her younger brother, and navigating her mum’s struggles with alcohol. Sam’s story is one of grit, responsibility, and determination well beyond her years. Today, she leads a team of five (all close friends), balances work and family, and proves that authenticity and hard work can break every barrier. This is an open, honest, and inspiring conversation with one of the most impressive women in UK estate agency.

    The Two Russells with Matt and Neil Baldock 'The Baldock Brothers'

    Two brothers. One incredible journey. Matt and Neil’s story starts in Chelmsford with junior neg jobs, diverted phones at funfairs, and even setting up what they believe was the UK’s first online estate agency back in 2002. Life wasn’t easy...their parents divorced, they lost their dad young, and at times the brothers fell out completely. But grief, graft, and a pub fight (!) brought them back together. Since then, they’ve built something special. From Neil leaving the police to focus on lettings, to Matt grafting 13 days straight on door knocks, their paths merged in 2014. Today, they run a £1m turnover agency with 13 staff, managing sales, lettings, and HMOs all while raising families and staying true to their roots. This is a story of resilience, ambition, and a partnership built on trust. With a brand that’s growing in a unique way, their mum as their biggest fan, and their sights set on the future, Matt and Neil show what happens when brothers back each other all the way.

    We’re kicking off Season 3 of The Two Russells with none other than Mark Burgess, founder of Iceberg Digital a man who’s lived ten lives before most of us have had breakfast. Mark went from growing up in some of the toughest parts of East London, caught up in gangs and battling addiction from 13 to 18, to buying properties with no money, leading in estate agency sales, and ultimately building 7- and 8-figure businesses. He’s now the author of three best-selling books, an international keynote speaker on AI, marketing, and Big Data, and the creator of Iceberg Digital’s AI operating system for estate agents that’s changing the industry. This conversation is raw, dynamic, and inspiring. A story of resilience, reinvention, and always staying one step ahead.

    The Two Russells with Kim McGinley

    From a social media post to the Two Russells' big chair. We spotted a Facebook post that Kim McGinley published back in April that talked candidly of her anxiety at addressing a big crowd at an event Kim spoke at. 'This', we thought, 'is worth exploring'. Roll forward to June and our diaries aligned and we had the pleasure of speaking to Kim in our London studios to talk about 'that panic attack' and anxiety generally. Is it crippling? Or can it be utilised as a strength? A little nervousness keeps us all on our toes, after all. Well, we spoke about all that plus life as an entrepreneur in financial services, juggling family life, being a social media influencer and more. Tune in for yet another fabulous journey unwrapped on the Two Russells. Be inspired...

It’s for nothing to do with gender. Merit is merit.

    The Two Russells with Geoff Wilford

    Geoff Wilford founded Wilfords estate agents after a roller coaster career selling luxury homes in the Caribbean. But as he was about to bank enough commission from well-heeled celebrity buyers that would make him a millionaire, his world cam crashing down and he ended up with nothing. One day he drove up to the gates of the ‘rock star’ type development of villas he was mid-way through selling and was greeted by a sign that the company had gone out of business. But from this he salvaged an ‘ice cool’ contact that backed him in what is the extremely successful Wilfords business today. All from the proceeds of ‘Party platters for a pound’, or thereabouts. Listen to the latest Two Russells episode now to find out who this mystery supporter was and why he invested in Geoff.

    The Two Russells with Matt Giggs

    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.

  23. 30

    The Two Russells with Colby Short

    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?
