The Future of Work Podcast
The media arm of a flexible workspace company, featuring multiple hosts who interview experts on leadership, AI, and workplace culture.
This is the content marketing podcast for Allwork.Space, a media company founded by a veteran of the flexible office industry. Episodes feature long-form interviews with consultants, authors, and strategists who study corporate culture and technology. The conversations serve as a platform to discuss and promote the ideas central to the parent company's brand, such as flexible, human-centric work environments.
“The podcast uses multiple hosts, including company executives Frank Cottle and Daniel Lamadrid, and has even experimented with an AI host named Nova for certain segments. This variety in hosts and formats, from deep-dive interviews to multi-guest roundups, distinguishes it from single-host shows in the business category.”

- 02Why Every Generation Is Asking for Dignity at Work with Angela R. Howard
A deep, philosophical discussion on whether current workplace friction is a true 'cultural reckoning' or a cyclical generational debate, hosted by Frank Cottle.

Hosted by Daniel Lamadrid, this episode provides a clear business case and actionable advice for leaders on the often-avoided topic of mental health in the workplace.
What you'll be asked on this show
The human hosts (Frank Cottle and Daniel Lamadrid) employ a conversational and probing interview style. They often open with broad, trend-spotting questions like "What trends are you seeing right now?" before drilling down. They actively listen for key phrases or strong statements from the guest, asking for clarification with questions like "What do you mean by 'bad behaviors'?" or "Who is the reckoning between?". Both hosts share personal anecdotes and professional opinions to build rapport and sometimes to gently challenge a guest's premise, as when Cottle brings up his Depression-era father to question if generational complaints are new. A common closing move is to ask for a single, actionable piece of advice or for the guest's contact information.
The show alternates between hosts and formats. Frank Cottle and Daniel Lamadrid conduct conversational, long-form interviews, often sharing their own experiences to frame questions. In contrast, some episodes use an AI host named 'Nova' to run structured, multi-guest segments where each expert answers a single, targeted question.
