Real life job stories from an engineer building projects in Africa and beyond.
This podcast shares real world engineering experiences, business journeys, technical problem solving, and what it really takes to build something from nothing.
If you’re into engineering, entrepreneurship, factory life, or inspiring work stories — this is for you.
Nearly a year ago, this journey began as little more than a dream.
Since then, we have built relationships, developed ideas, created an organisation and laid the foundations for something much bigger than any one person.
In this honest and personal reflection, I talk about stepping away from the Secretary General position and returning to the technical engineering role where I belong. I reflect on the work nobody sees, the personal battles behind the progress, and why building the mission for love rather than money has strengthened my belief that it can succeed.
There is also room for a mysterious new adventure, a possible return to Poland, the expanding Bear Brigade, Billy the Engine’s accidental roly-poly, Dave the Digger, Dara the Wheelbarrow and why nobody should ever be embarrassed to sit outside reading a library copy of Business Plans for Dummies.
The dream became a vision.
The vision became a platform.
Now, after nearly a year of building, we may finally have reached the starting line.
This is Being a Legend, Not an Expert! Honest, imperfect and still moving forward.

He’ll Be President!
A raw voice-note style episode about friendship, belief, The Gambia, and the mad little ideas that somehow grow into something bigger. Jon Bear reflects on Jatto, the Bear Brigade world, fishing jokes, future possibilities, and why sometimes the best conversations are the ones that are unplanned.
