In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

Think the world needs to hear two straight white women broadcasting their opinions in a podcast? No, it definitely doesn't, but we miss our friends and their crazy opinions so we threw together something fun for everyone. Romantic and platonic relationship advice, business tips (from two people who have extensive job application experience), awful jokes, cringe-worthy puns and general shenanigans abound with Gia and Avery in Just The Tits. Trust us, it won't be the pits.

This past year, we were able to meet up in person for the first time in years! Tune in to listen to our adventures and foibles, and learn how to avoid getting caught on the slippery rocks!
To burp and fart in front of a loved one or coworker can be massively embarrassing or just meh, that happened, so what. We asked you what you think about letting one rip around friends and significant others and had a gas over it!
We took on the monumental challenge and succeeded in being mentally (and maybe emotionally) impacted by some horrendously bad movies. Tune it to hear our reviews of some of your bad movie recs! Spoiler: they're terrible.
To be a supportive partner or a good friend, to revel together in how awful it is or because a bunch of cinema critics said it was worth a watch - who really knows but here are a few remarkably bad ones you've shared with us. Gia and I will suffer through (or enjoy) the experience of viewing one of your suggestions and report back!…
What do skittles, balsamic vinegar and pretzels have to do with one another? Nothing but a good snack!! ... Maybe, if you're into that. Join us as we discover why we crave certain things and try not to get too hungry afterwards!
What's your favorite word in another language? We tried our best to pronounce them as we learned what a face that needs punching is and also that inexplicable feeling of wistful sadness you feel after returning from a vacation.
It's been a very traumatic and sad 20* (depending on when it started in your region) months so we wanted to throw some fun and uplifting memories your way, plus pay tribute to those who experienced trauma and grief.
Not all fantasies are based on sex so we wanted to see what y'all thought about in your downtime: life before kids, working for pleasure instead of money and healthcare for all.
Whether it's relationship issues, new mom struggles or just general queries about life, we've got you. Or at least we've got some fun ideas in the form of our usual insane rambles!
We're baaack and coming in hot for Season 2! Bumping uglies, making whoopie or giving someone a token-whatever you want to call it, they're all euphemisms people use (or have used) to describe something else. We explore these and more in our grand return to the pod stage. So, sit back, enjoy and try not to be scandalized!…
We're stepping out for a bit, getting some fresh air ... or taking in the sights from inside. We'll be back soon but until then, enjoy a fun inverted version of Ding, ding, ding, Gia didn't get a movie thing!
Fork, shirt, Mother Fudger! Join us on our kid-friendly cursing spree. (Spoiler: it's not actually that kid friendly) Turns out, cursing has some fun health benefits and we also found a few zingers in other languages!
