A new podcast, What’s the Point?, launches on Friday, bringing together three leading voices in recruitment, marketing and HR tech: Clair Bush, Janine Owen, and Kristie Perrotte.
Designed for founders, marketers, and talent leaders who care about impact, What’s the Point? promises no fluff, just real growth. Each week, the hosts tackle the tough questions that cut through industry hype, including:
- What actually works in marketing?
- How should talent strategy evolve in today’s commercial climate?
- How can innovation be harnessed within recruitment and HR?
With decades of combined experience scaling recruitment and HR technology businesses, Bush, Owen and Perrotte bring an unfiltered perspective rooted in real-world impact.
Clair Bush, Co-Host and Founder of AM-Bush Consultancy said:
“This is the podcast we all wanted to hear — honest conversations, practical insights, and stories from leaders who are really shaping what comes next. We’re not here to entertain for the sake of it. We’re here to challenge thinking, provoke better questions, and make people stop and think — what’s the point?"
Kristie Perrotte, Founder of Thrive Recruitment Marketing, added:
"What’s the Point? is about cutting through the noise to focus on what truly moves the dial: strategic clarity, brand alignment, and commercial relevance. It’s for leaders who aren’t just reacting to change, but actively driving it. Recruitment 3.0 isn’t a theory, it’s a shift, and it requires a different kind of conversation. That’s exactly what we’re here to have."
Janine Owen, Founder of JO&Co. said:
"What’s the Point? is born out of the conversations we’ve all been having behind closed doors for years. The missed opportunities, the misaligned strategies, the lack of commercial rigour — it’s time to say it out loud. We’re putting real talk front and centre because the industry deserves more than surface-level soundbites. This is for leaders who are building something meaningful."
