How Do You Browse The Web Without Being Tracked? (2026/682)

Every time you open Chrome or Edge, advertisers are collecting data on your browsing habits. If you have ever wondered how to take back control of your online privacy without sacrificing usability, Brave Browser is worth a serious look.

In this episode, Charly covers:

✅What Brave Browser is, who built it, and why it was created as a privacy-first alternative to Chrome
✅How Brave Shields work to block trackers, ads, fingerprinting, and third-party cookies — and how to adjust them per site
✅The advanced controls available in Brave, including filter lists, cookie notice blockers, and YouTube Shorts removal
✅How to use Brave Profiles to keep your work, personal, and banking activity completely separate
✅The Brave mobile app — including a free YouTube background play feature that usually requires a paid subscription

What Happens To Your Business If You Lose Your Laptop? (2026/705)

Your laptop could die, get stolen, or you might just forget to take it with you - and if you do not have a plan for what comes next, you could be in trouble. Without your laptop, you lose access to the very systems you need to run your business.

In this episode, Charly covers:

✅ Why losing your laptop means losing access to the systems your business runs on
✅ The critical difference between a dead laptop and a stolen one
✅ What to do in the first hour if your laptop goes missing
✅ How your downtime can grind your entire team to a halt
✅ The mindset shift needed to build a real continuity plan

Stop guessing and start planning - because the worst time to figure this out is when it has already happened.

Is Your Free VPN Selling Your Data? (2026/704)

You installed a free VPN to protect your privacy, but what if it is actually doing the exact opposite? Most free VPN providers need to make money somehow, and if you are not paying with your wallet, you are almost certainly paying with your data.

In this episode, Charly covers:

✅ Why running a VPN service is expensive and how free providers cover those costs
✅ How free VPNs collect and sell your browsing history, habits, and behavioural data to brokers
✅ Why “no logs” marketing claims cannot be trusted without independent audits
✅ Why a free VPN is worse than other dodgy apps - because ALL your traffic flows through it
✅ Three practical steps: uninstall, change passwords, and budget for a paid provider

Stop being the product. A decent paid VPN costs less than a coffee a month and keeps your data where it belongs - with you.

How Can You Add Gravity Forms To Any Page Builder? (2026/703)

Struggling to add a Gravity Forms form to a page builder that does not have a built-in connector? If you are using Divi, Thrive Architect, or another WordPress page builder without native Gravity Forms support, there is a simple workaround you need to know about.

In this episode, Charly covers:

✅ Why Gravity Forms is worth using over built-in form builders for better spam protection and integrations
✅ How to find and copy the Gravity Forms shortcode from the embed button
✅ Using the custom HTML or custom code block in your page builder to display the form
✅ Tips on customising the shortcode options like hiding the form title

This technique works across most page builders - if it has a custom HTML or code block, you can use it. Stop wrestling with missing connectors and get your forms on the page the easy way.
