Description

No More Waffle is the podcast that cuts the fluff and tells the truth about the property industry. Hosted by Ben Madden, each week we dive into the real conversations agents avoid, from why the public doesn’t trust estate agents, to the impact of acquisitions, training, AI, and service standards on buyers, sellers, landlords and tenants. If you work in the property sector, or if you’re a consumer who just wants to understand how estate agency really works, this is for you. Raw, honest, and occasionally brutal, but always with the goal of making the industry better. 🎙️ New episodes every wee
