The War and Treaty’s Michael and Tanya Trotter grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, and Washington, DC, respectively, but both have family roots in the South. They also grew up in the musical traditions of their churches – Tanya in the Black Baptist Church and Michael in the Seventh Day Adventist Church – where they learned the power of song to move people. After becoming a father at a very young age, Michael eventually joined the armed forces and served in Iraq and Germany, where he took up songwriting as a way of dealing with his experiences there. Meanwhile Tanya embarked on a singing and acting career after a breakthrough appearance in Sister Act 2 alongside Whoopi Goldberg and Lauryn Hill. Now, after a long and sometimes traumatic journey, Michael and Tanya are married, touring, winning all sorts of awards, and set to release their fifth album together, and their fourth as The War and Treaty. Sid talks to Michael and Tanya about the new record, Plus One , as well as their collaboration with Miranda Lambert, what it was like to record at FAME studios in Muscle Shoals, and how they’re blending country, soul, gospel, and R&B.

1 Another little filler - 2 mugs, talk about mugs; business failures on the rise; ends with a cheese story 26:35
Send us a text The boys have returned from their festive adventures! Trev enjoyed sunny days on the Southampton docks, while Dave endured the cold on the Algarve—or maybe it was the other way around. Either way, they’re back, and this episode is packed with the usual mix of humour and insight. First up, there’s an emotional chat about their new mugs, proudly adorned with both the Podcast logo, and The Guild’s logo to highlight the strong partnership between the two. The conversation then turns to a sobering topic: the troubling rise of business failures throughout 2024. Trev and Dave express their concern about this ongoing trend and their frustration at the lack of action to being taken by those that run the run country et al. They share their personal insights and some practical, common-sense solutions for tackling the issue, adding some unusual depth to the discussion. Of course, it wouldn’t be an episode without a dose of light-hearted chaos. This time, Trev discovers a mysterious tub of cheese in the boot of Dave’s car, leading to some hilarity that only these two could deliver. In an exciting new twist, the boys announce a monthly competition and, in addition, they’re calling on Guild members to submit case studies, with the chance to win... well, some very cheap looking mugs. As always, we encourage you to listen, share, and keep the comments coming. Who knows? If luck isn’t on your side, you might just end up with a mug!

Send us a text In this final episode of the year, David and Trevor bring some much-needed festive cheer to the often serious and challenging world of business finance. Their efforts are made even merrier by the lively presence of guest Martin Lewis, founder of 'EVESS' (Graduation Attire Ltd). At just 36 years old, Martin shares his remarkable entrepreneurial journey, which began on the very day he graduated—12 July 2013. He reveals how a chance meeting with business finance professional and Guild member Duncan Payne (aka Martin Kemp) from 'Adamantean' became a turning point. Thanks to Duncan’s introduction of a tailored asset finance and trade finance facility, Martin’s business found the support it needed to thrive. This inspiring conversation is packed with valuable insights for business owners, but it’s not all serious! Martin’s sense of humour matches the hosts’ clownish charm, leading to hilarity as they dream up a band called “Rock & Robe,” with Duncan as the lead singer. If you’re looking for the perfect blend of laughs, light-hearted banter, and practical business wisdom, this episode is a must-listen!

Send us a text After a sun-soaked break enjoying beers and beaches in the Algarve, Dave and Trev are back! Riding on the success of Series 1, the duo couldn’t resist returning for another round of lighthearted chatter. This time, they’ve teamed up with The Guild of Business Finance Professionals . Since the Guild’s launch in June, the timing feels spot on, with a natural synergy bringing these two worlds together. While Dave’s wedding bells are still echoing in Trevor’s ears—along with the groans of other fellow “sufferers”—this new collaboration aims to strike a chord with business owners in need of financial expertise. So, kick back, toss a log on the fire, and see if you can stay awake for the full 21 minutes and 35 seconds!

Send us a text After nine previous episodes, Dave and Trev wrap up Series 1 with a recap of all that’s unfolded on the show over the past six months. The duo reflect on memorable guests, including Jo Hughes, the business owner from Episode 3, and Andrew Frost, the lender from Episode 9. Between these, there’s been a mix of other guests, some awful humour, and a quiz effort that didn’t quite capture the audience’s enthusiasm. Since the founding of The Guild of Business Finance Professionals on June 6th, it seems fitting that future shows will align with the Guild to strengthen it's growing membership and communication channels. As for Series 2, plans remain hidden under a big red blanket and still waiting for a clear direction. In the meantime, Dave and Trev will continue their playful mission to conquer South America, ponder a world tour, consider selling out to Netflix, or perhaps go off gallivanting with their showbiz pals, Mr Benedict Cumberbatch and Ms Gillian Anderson.

1 The Lender - through the keyhole with Frost; Royalty included, toilet chat and we welcome Bolivia 45:58
Send us a text On this penultimate episode of Series 1, David and Trevor enjoy a lively conversation with Andrew Frost from Genesis Asset Finance, a family business with nearly 25 years of experience lending to small businesses. Andrew, now leading the company alongside his brother Edward, offers his candid perspective on the current marketplace, emphasising that lending is an "art," not a "science." He speaks passionately about the importance of personal connections in business, such as meeting customers face-to-face and working closely with intermediaries. This approach highlights the company's traditional values in a rapidly evolving industry. As usual, the podcast gets lost down a pathway of both serious and light-hearted topics. In a fun twist, this episode marks the milestone of the podcast being downloaded on every continent, after finally reaching Bolivia—unlocking the long-closed and bolted South American "door." On the lighter/darker side, "toilet chat" makes its debut, and there's a quirky introduction to the Royal Family of Bhutan, all in line with the usual mix of serious insights and awful banter that has become a flaw and frailty of the show. This episode also welcomes the podcast’s first external sponsor, Finance Technology Services Limited, and introduces a new website that gathers all the key people and moments from the podcast's journey so far.

1 A Little Filler...some mental health chat...balanced by an awful quiz and a few words from Gillian Anderson 17:50
Send us a text As with all of the 'Little Fillers' to date, David & Trevor have tried to keep the content short, sweet and engaging. Despite their best efforts, the chat bounces from one extreme to another and many are forced to switch off and never to return! Following the last episode, the conversation around mental health was spoken about with Gordon Larson and the feedback received was interesting and hence it was felt necessary to raise this important subject again. Trevor decides to become a Quiz Master...and fails, leaving David bemused by the unfair scoring that was implemented...and David surprises Trevor with an alleged fan message sent to him by Gillian Anderson, yes, the American actress best known for her X-Files and Sex Education. Finally, Trevor leaks out a personal secret that David has been keeping under wraps and now there is an unwanted and unnecessary competition between Oasis and David to see who can sell the most tickets. Currently, Oasis are ahead by a supernova and more. Enjoy Support the show Please subscribe and follow us on LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube and Twitter/X. Just search for 'Business Finance Matters'.

Stephen talks openly about why The Guild has been formed and what he hopes The Guild will become.

In addition, Trevor and Stephen explain how The Guild we work along alongside the existing industry trade bodies including the NACFB, FIBA and the FLA As always, this episode is peppered with a mix of various attempts to be comedic, witty, sarcastic and unique.

Send us a text On this show, the boy's are tickled pink to bring you their 2nd 'little filler'...and especially as they have some exciting news to deliver. Dave and Trev have also been receiving positive feedback from the business finance marketplace including a number of case studies that clearly demonstrates the many advantages for business owners that are seeking the best-fit access to a very crowded lending landscape. The message continues to remain clear and support the fact that the vast majority of business owners should not engage with directly with any lender without seeking professional guidance beforehand. In addition, avoid engaging with many of the online or social media adverts that may be offering quick access to cheap finance.

Send us a text On this show we welcome Jo Hughes. Jo is a director and co-owner of MaxWifi (UK) Limited. Jo talks openly about her career path and explains how she and her husband Richard, were able to cope with the many financial challenges that they had to endure...including a conversation with their bank manager that could have lead to their demise had they taken his advice. The good news is that Jo was able to engage with a business finance professional shortly after and ignored the advice of the bank manager. Today her business is thriving once more. Most importantly, Jo gives an honest and frank view on the importance of why every small business should be able to gain quick access to a nearby business finance professional.

Send us a text Following on from the 1st Episode that went live on 19th April, this next Episode will cover off the feedback and responses received so far and continues to push home the principle cause ie to ensure that the UK's business owners are given the signposting that will give them the access to the best-fit finance. Dave & Trev, of course, add their own twist of humour and banter that most of the listeners appear to enjoy, however, some have already switched off and moved quickly into a dark room to reflect.
