The Two Russells – Details, episodes & analysis

This week it’s the Three Russells as Quirk and Jervis tackle Russell Manning of Manning Stainton.

This is another fabulous walkthrough of one of the industry’s most successful entrepreneurial estate agents and his journey from ambitious cheeky, door-knocking Yorkshire lad to one of the country’s youngest ever corporate regional directors.

Has it always been plain sailing? Not a chance. But Russ 3 does seem to have an uncanny way of knowing when to take a risk and to double down.

4p or not 4p, that is the question...

The next episode of The Two Russells is with Ev Foster, boss of Keller Williams Scotland.

Russell Jervis and Russell Quirk take Ev back to her Glasgow roots, her first job in nursing which she left because she was told she talked too much, and her role and challenges as a single mum. The truly compelling part of Ev's story is the moment she realised she had just 4 pence in her bank account and couldn't feed her kids or put petrol in her car to go to work.

But she shrugged that off and now runs a whole country (sort of).

Will Beresfords maintain their traditional branch model only?.....Or did Messrs Russell just give the bosses an innovative idea for future growth?! 🚀Ps. Beresfords is NOT for sale. No, really. It’s not 😉🚫Listen to Mark Lawrinson batting away incessant probing from Jervis and Quirk

Episode 8 of The Two Russells podcast isn’t just about a property industry person. It’s not just about their career. It’s about their life journey, their challenges and how they’ve overcome them. Prepare to be moved and inspired by this very personal account by Amy Shields. We hope it helps people in a similar situation to that which Amy was in.

The big one. The grudge match. The ultimate fight.

In the red corner the Professor of Caution, Charlie Lamdin. In the Blue Corner the Never Knowingly Underquoted Russell Quirk, a self-confessed optimist on house prices.

They’ve spent years tearing lumps out of each other on social media with Charlie expressing his view that prices will plummet ‘by 2025m whilst Russell has said repeatedly that they won’t.

Have they? Will they?

Decide for yourself who’s right.

And will there be a part two?

The one and only Tyron Ash, the Lambo driving, gold Yachtmaster wearing self-ordained King of Real Estate talks to the Two Russells podcast about Knight Frank, about being bold, about being in Dubai and … how his numbers stack up. How big a success is he exactly?We ask him questions that no one else has had answers to. Buckle up.
