| The FullStack AI Ethicist with Robin Lee | 27 oct. 2026 | 00:32:18 | |
In this special Book Club episode of Risky Women Radio, host Kimberley Cole welcomes the podcast's third "Risky Man"—global RegTech leader, author, and AI strategist Robin Lee. Spanning an extraordinary career that bridges Silicon Valley software engineering, Wall Street hedge funds, and Southeast Asian compliance, Robin unpacks the core thesis behind his latest book, The Full Stack AI Ethicist (co-authored with Adam Khan). Robin makes a compelling case for why ethics must precede traditional governance, risk, and compliance (GRC). Rather than treating AI governance as a solo technical assignment, forward-thinking institutions must establish multi-disciplinary committees that balance innovation with moral accountability. All proceeds from The Full Stack AI Ethicist are donated to Global Alms, an NGO dedicated to rescuing victims from Southeast Asian scam centres. Show Notes01:55 – From Silicon Valley to Wall Street: Robin's journey across software engineering, hedge fund analytics, and financial crime compliance. | |||
| Keanu Reeves is Not in Love With You by Becky Holmes | 03 sept. 2026 | 00:33:13 | |
What happens when an accidental Twitter viral star turns a boredom-fueled lockdown crusade against fake hunky soldiers into a bestselling book and a front-row seat at global anti-scam summits? In this special Book Club edition of Risky Women Radio, host Kimberley Cole sits down with author, speaker, and internet fraud-fighter Becky Holmes (known online as @DeathtoSpinach). Becky shares her journey from corporate PR to baiting romance scammers with absurd tales of ketchup murders and trips to the moon. She breaks down why blaming victims is both lazy and cruel, why relying solely on AI technology won't solve emotionally groomed crimes, and why 50% of romance fraud victims are actually men—despite the persistent social stereotypes.

| From Controls to Outcomes with Suzanne Allen | 20 août 2026 | 00:32:05 | |
Ever wondered what professional horse riding and Lehman Brothers' post-collapse cleanup have in common? Quite a bit, as it turns out. In this episode of Risky Women Radio, host Kimberley Cole sits down with operational risk powerhouse Suzanne Allen to explore how a background in championship show-jumping laid the ultimate foundation for proactive risk management, resilience, and spot-on time management. Suzanne shares her journey from competing at Hickstead to rebuilding control frameworks in global markets and fintechs. She pulls back the curtain on why counting risk assessments is just "measuring effort" rather than outcome, why the traditional three-lines-of-defense model might soon be extinct, and why women are uniquely equipped to handle the human, ethical side of AI governance.

| Valuing Social Capital in the AI Era with Katrin Gülden Le Maire | 23 juil. 2026 | 00:42:01 | |
In a 21st-century knowledge economy where tech valuations eclipse physical industrial giants, traditional accounting frameworks like IAS 38 are struggling to reflect what actually drives modern corporate value. In this episode of Risky Women Radio, host Kimberley Cole sits down with strategic advisor, researcher, and governance expert Katrin Gülden Le Maire. Bringing a rare interdisciplinary lens spanning finance, tech, ESG, and philosophy, Katrin unpacks why intangible assets—from human relationships and talent to organisational trust—require a radical rethink in governance. Together, they explore why relying purely on quantitative algorithms misses the mark, how AI is reshaping human connective labour, and why courageous business leaders must take charge of defining social capital before regulators do it for them.

| Navigating 2026 Compliance Priorities, a Mid-year Reality Check | 30 juin 2026 | 00:26:41 | |
Welcome back to Risky Women Radio, near the midpoint of 2026. If you've spent the last few months celebrating whispered promises of regulatory "simplification" and a "lighter supervisory touch," we hate to ruin the party—but you're likely basking in false comfort. In this fourth annual check-in, host Kimberley Cole reunites with Protiviti's compliance vanguards, Carol Beaumier and Bernadine Reese, to deliver a healthy dose of reality to the mid-year compliance calendar. As it turns out, tech fragmentation, AI implementations, and financial crime networks don't magically slow down just because a regulator changes their tone. Our guests pull back the curtain on why treating a drop in regulatory intensity as an invite to slash budgets is a massive trap , why your traditional siloed compliance stack is buckling under the weight of interconnected risks , and why the ultimate compliance hazard of 2026 might just be demanding high-quality executive judgment from a thoroughly exhausted, under-resourced team.

From navigating the "heady days" of Basel II in the immediate aftermath of Nick Leeson's Barings debacle to building the world's first operational risk database, Penny has spent her career gently exploding conventional thinking. She joins us to discuss why change initiatives fail when you only convince the C-suite, why the second line of defence needs to stop acting like an armchair referee, and how treating AI agents like messy human employees is the key to modern governance.

Welcome to another Risky Women Radio Book Club Edition. In an era dominated by rapid AI disruption, intensifying social scrutiny, and relentless geopolitical shifts, compliance can no longer be treated as a mere back-office box-checking exercise. In this episode, host Kimberley Cole sits down with Natalie McManus-Barnett, co-author of How to Be a Chief Compliance Officer and founder of Innovate Compliance. Shifting the narrative away from dry, bureaucratic policy-pushing, Natalie brings a refreshing dose of "polite disruption" to the table. She shares her "Jungle Gym" journey from the Financial Conduct Authority to Citibank, introducing a masterclass on how to weave compliance directly into the DNA of corporate strategy, execution, and culture to turn risk management into a genuine competitive advantage. | |||
