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.

Brad Polumbo on The Effect of Media on Young Ideologies 1:07:25

1:07:25

In this episode, we wanted to bring in a unique lens on pro-liberty and capitalism in the media with journalist and economic analyst Brad Polumbo . Mike & Brad cover a lot of ground and explore how young people often identify with their understanding of a freedom ideology, but are frustrated and not wanting to associate with political parties. They discuss the evolving media and mostly biased coverage, policy makers not being held accountable for horrific COVID policies, public schools and colleges nurturing an anti-individual, anti-capitalist approach. While understanding the alienation young citizens are experiencing, Brad provides a positive, often humorous and entertaining message. Brad Polumbo Media: Instagram X (Twitter) YouTube…

Bernie Sanders' 32-Hour Workweek 37:12

Bernie Sanders recently proposed a new bill, the "32-Hour Workweek Act". In this proposal, the act would include a reduction to a 32-hour workweek without a decrease in pay or benefits. Although this sounds appealing, Mike and Mitch discuss the possible implications and potential repercussions with a mandated 32-hour workweek. Instead, defenders of capitalism should advocate for freedom in the workplace when it comes to how people want to spend their time, rather than more government force.…

Who Is Poisoning the Blood? Trump's rhetoric. You heard that right -- it's time to call out Trump's rhetoric on immigration in December 2023 (and prior). Capitalism and immigration go hand in hand, and Trump's inability to acknowledge the connection is poisoning politics more than ever before and furthermore letting down the people who follow him. Mitch and Mike shed light on the disturbing quotes from Trump and how they are exactly the opposite of the ideals of capitalism.…
