Podcaster sits down with billionaire Sir Tom Hunter

The episode is a full-circle moment for host David McIntosh Jr. who first met the Ayrshire billionaire 15 years ago when he visited Prestwick Academy to deliver an assembly on aspiration and resilience.

David, 26, described this talk as his “sliding-door moment”.

He said: “Sir Tom walked into my school gym in bright-white Nikes and rewired what I believed was possible for a kid from Ayrshire. Sir Tom changed the trajectory of my life that day.”
