#9 The Amazing Pierina
Bond Villains, Broke Parents and Asbestos in Soils Assessments: A Wild Ride with Pierina Otness
Gunnar and James are back with another high-flying guest on their podcast! Somehow this episode feels very James Bond-ish.
Scene 1: The Asbestos Assessment Authority
Gunnar and James, sit down with none other than Pierina Otness - the undisputed authority on asbestos in soils (ASBINS) assessments.
Scene 2: James vs. James Bond
Gunnar feels that James needs an introduction worthy of 007.
Scene 3: Broke Parents Club
Pierina drops truth bombs: having kids is like investing in a black hole. Your wallet? Empty. Your sanity? Questionable. But hey, at least you’re broke together.
Scene 4: Research Papers and National Guidelines
The gang dives into research papers like treasure hunters. Turns out, the Western Australian guidelines on ASBINS were inspired by ancient scrolls hidden in a dusty library. But Pierina and her colleagues read them all, summarised them and produced a Bible-like guidance document that stands the test of time (and Gunnar is not impressed with the Bible comparison of course).
Scene 5: Pierina’s Masterclass
Consultants, listen up! Pierina spills the beans on how to ace an ASBINS assessment and Gunnar and James find it hard to become worthy Pierina disciples due to a lack of adequate training opportunities.
Scene 6: The Sydney Seduction
Gunnar, ever the smooth talker, tries to woo Pierina to move to NSW. Pierina somehow seems to be able to resist though. How weird.
Executive Summary: Pierina’s Awesomeness
Gunnar and James transform this seemingly mundane topic into an electrifying episode. It’s all thanks to Pierina’s awesomeness. Tune in - you won’t want to miss it!
Remember, dear listeners, asbestos might be hazardous, but this podcast? Pure gold.
