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.

A podcast where creative goofballs George Westberg and Eric Tortora Pato fail to avoid discussing every and (more honestly) any topic to the peak of nerdiness, geekiness, and tangential randomness. Now with 100% more existence.

Our first and pilot episode! AKA "My Favorite Podcast", Where Eric introduces George to "My Favorite Murder" (Hosted by Georgia Hardstark and Karen Kilgariff, and George introduces Eric to "Talk Salad and Scrambled Eggs", a Fraiser and Terminator SMODcast with Kevin Smith and Matt Mira. Also in this episode: George and Eric Ramble. George shares a "Hometown Murder" from his involving florists and drug cartels. The guys talk about Desert Bus for Hope and the currently climaxing DesertBusX run (www.desertbus.org). The guys shamelessly promote friends and creators they like. George and Eric remain blissfully unaware of election results. Corrections and Promos! 1- We Watch Wrestling (hosted by Vince Averill, Matt McCarthy, and Tom Sibley) is not actually part of the Feral Audio brand, but some podcasts that are “Slumber Party with Ali & Georgia,” “We Should Have A Podcast,” and “You’re Welcome World News”. We haven’t listened to them yet. 2- The host of Ask Me Another is Ophira Eisenberg and she’s awesome. 3- Desert Bus For Hope 10 is on now! desertbus.org #DesertBusX 4- As of the writing of these corrections, the world still hasn’t ended. More on this as the story evolves.…
