Back by popular demand (ish), the Mind Tools L&D Podcast team are wrapping up this year with a tenuous spin on festive favourite Home Alone! This time it isn’t Macaulay Culkin getting left behind: it’s Ross G, Ross D, Nahdia and Owen!

What would WE do if left for Christmas in the L&D department of a large organisation? When our colleagues return, what will they find?

We discuss:

  • the laughs we’d share if we could get hold of IT admin privileges
  • how stock photography haunts us still
  • the benefits of an AI personal assistant on every device.

In ‘What I Learned This Week’, Ross D recommended the Scrubs podcast Fake Doctors, Real Friends: open.spotify.com/show/6qckOLN3q2qpZilM6i1MKv

And for something festive, he shared ‘Baby, It’s Cold Outside’ by Zach Braff and Donald Faison: youtube.com/watch?v=ZAGCZMQUeXo

Nahdia shared a Dolly Parton fact. If you don’t already love Dolly, check out the Dolly Parton’s America podcast: wnycstudios.org/podcasts/dolly-partons-america

And Ross G shared a Twitter thread from @Ammaar, who wrote a children’s book in a weekend with ChatGPT, MidJourney and other AI tools: twitter.com/ammaar/status/1601284293363261441?s=20&t=I60XsKrPtGFMEQi7uUwA2A
