Dive into the absurdity of corporate culture with Boston-based comedian Joe Fenti, who brings his sharp wit to our new game, Red Flag or Deal Breaker. Together, we dissect ten outrageous workplace traits to decide whether they’re merely red flags to watch out for or full-on deal breakers that would send you sprinting to the exit. From “unlimited PTO” that’s secretly a trap to bosses who evaluate you based on "vibes only," Joe’s deadpan delivery will having you chuckling as we debate what’s tolerable and what’s a hard pass. Highlights include Joe’s epic takedown of "we are a family" culture and his pitch to remove all sporting events during a company team-building retreat.

We also weigh in on the recent news of Jaguar Land Rover CEO Adrian Mardell stepping down after 35 years, following a controversial rebranding campaign that sparked a social media firestorm. Posts on X and web reports suggest the “Copy Nothing” ad, featuring androgynous models and no cars, led to a 97-98% sales drop and comparisons to “Bud Light 2.0.” Tune in for laughs, corporate shade, and a game that’ll make you rethink your job—or at least your boss’s Slack habits.
