Writer and "craictivist", The Don continues her top 20 picks from the first 144 episodes of A Pint With Seaniebee. (A perfect starting point for first-time listeners to the series). THE DON: An intelligent man of great integrity and a really cool life story. ************************************************************ TONY PIGOTT HAS A PINT WITH SEANIEBEE Growing up one of 7 kids into a construction family in rural Ontario, Tony Pigott did most of his exploring early in life. After a spell in the steel mills, he studied Russian history before deciding to set off and see the world at the tender age of 21. A brave and adventurous circumnavigation followed, including a journey across Russia on the Trans-Siberia Railway; a fascinating number of years spent teaching remote Neolithic tribes in the mountains of Papua New Guinea; jumping freighters to Hong Kong and arriving in Laos during the civil war. We also discuss the differences between Australia and Canada and why the latter is doing so much better than America right now, across so many important criteria. On his return to Canada, he joined the ad agency JWT, where he spent over 30 years rising to the top as Chairman. Ten years ago, he established BrandAid Project – a business focused on bringing best marketing and design practice to small artisan producers in developing countries. Now named BrandTrade, they have done much work in Haiti, and more recently Peru where they brand and match small producers with resellers and are at the leading edge of the new, technology-led, ‘microtrade marketing’.
