On this episode of the Fundraising Everywhere Podcast Live, host Simon Scriver chats with Marina Jones, Executive Director of Development at English National Opera, about why fundraisers love chasing shiny new ideas instead of learning from the past.

They’ll dive into some timeless tips rooted in behavioural science and explore how the fundraisers of the past mastered persuasion long before terms like "heuristics" and "nudges" existed.
