Strategic Moves, Summer School Dreams & the Road to UKREiiF

Friday, May 9, 2025 • Duration 43:03

In this lively and thought-provoking episode, the PAD Pod trio - Jackie Sadek, Catriona Riddell, and Alex Notay - take listeners on a whirlwind tour of the latest developments in planning, regeneration, and local government.

Fresh from conferences and committee rooms, the hosts unpack the current state of play across the sector. From select committee evidence on the Planning and Infrastructure Bill to the evolving landscape of local government reform, no stone is left unturned. The team delves into the power of strategic planning, with reflections from the Building New Communities Conference and an eye on the accelerating pace of devolution.

There’s also a nostalgic yet serious rallying cry for the return of the legendary Planning Summer School - complete with shoutouts to past heroes and current efforts to revive the spirit of sector-wide training and camaraderie.

Looking ahead, the hosts gear up for UKREiiF in Leeds, sharing their plans, panels, and perspectives, including the anticipated launch of the Strategic Planning Group’s report and the much-hyped “MegaPod” crossover with Our World is Local.

Whether you’re a policymaker, planner, developer, or just planning-curious, this episode is packed with insight, energy, and a touch of irreverence. Tune in for sharp commentary, big ideas, and plenty of laughs.

Forgotten Heroines, Rain-Soaked Real Estate, and the Power of Mayors

Friday, April 11, 2025 • Duration 47:00

In this jam-packed episode of Planning After Dark, Alex Notay, Catriona Riddell, and Jackie Sadek kick things off by righting some wrongs - shouting out the influential women in planning they regret missing last time, from Pat Brown to Janice Morphet.

Then it’s off to the South of France (metaphorically, and soggily) for a no-holds-barred MIPIM roundup: leaky carpets, invisible ministers, and a baffling British PR display featuring lookalike rockstars and a phone box.

The conversation flows into strategic planning, mayoral elections, and the magic (or madness) of charismatic local leadership. Who’s stepping up? Who’s missing the moment? And why do mayors matter more than you think?
