Tired of skipping ads while someone tiptoes around workplace truth? We cut straight to the power dynamics that define your job, explain why “employment at will” keeps bias hidden, and share the practical moves that help you protect income, reputation, and momentum. After nearly three decades in employment law, I’ve watched the same tactics repeat across famous brands and billionaire-led companies—selective layoffs, weaponized performance plans, hush clauses in severance, and policy gray areas that punish anyone without leverage. So I’m putting the playbook on the table, clearly and without sponsors shaping what can be said. This is a podcast for employees.

We talk about the dysfunctional parent–child model many employers create and how that robs you of a voice in security and growth. I break down why cause-based termination and real contracts change behavior, and how you can push for fairness even when the system resists it. You’ll hear how to build your own paper trail, turn verbal promises into written commitments, and ask the questions that force transparency around criteria, metrics, and promotion paths. The point isn’t to spark conflict for sport—it’s to give you a calm, proven method to navigate bias, negotiate severance, and avoid traps that trade your rights for vague “opportunities.”

This podcast for employees stays raw and ad-free because independence matters. I use AI to speed case analysis where it helps, but the judgment is earned through courtroom scars and settlements with household-name employers. If you want straight answers about discrimination, termination, retaliation, and severance strategy—without euphemisms or corporate spin—you’re in the right place. Listen now to this podcast for employees, share it with a colleague who needs backup, and if it helps, leave a review on Apple or Spotify so more workers can find it. Let’s grow a community that knows the rules and plays to win.
