About This Podcast

Welcome to No Bollocks with Matt Haycox, the business podcast for entrepreneurs, CEOs, and anyone who wants to build big without the bullshit.

I’m Matt Haycox: investor, founder, and straight-talking business mentor. I’ve funded nearly £1 billion in UK business loans, bounced back from bankruptcy, and now own and advise multiple 7- and 8-figure companies across sectors, from property and e-commerce to finance and hospitality.


This podcast cuts through the noise. No bollocks. No gurus. Just raw conversations, real strategies, and the lessons you actually need to succeed in business.

Each episode features unfiltered insights from me and guests who’ve built it, lost it, and built it back bigger.


So buckle up. It’s time to learn how to do business, properly.
