  • 054 - Mitigate Risk and Drink Beer (AKA Employment Law)
    Tyson and Alexa learn how to make smart decisions and still drink beer with Jon Hyman, Employment Lawyer and Partner at Wickens Herzer Panza, who goes through Employment law 101—everything from why people sue their employers to how to reduce risk even in the riskiest situations, also periods, oh and why you don’t actually have freedom of speech. Yikes! We dive deep into the greyest areas of legal perspective, so grab a pen and paper for this one folks!

  • 052 - The Union Bomb
    Unions are basically an HR curse word. But are they really that bad? On this week’s episode, we sit down with an OG of HR, Connie Marie. Connie has worked a lengthy HR career alongside unions, and she shares with us what is and isn’t possible when you are governed by collective agreements. Connie shares that although unions might equal red tape, there is still so much opportunity to kill it as an HR partner and make shit happen. Oh, and did we mention that Connie is also Tyson’s mom! Alexa takes this opportunity to ask about generational views on HR, so buckle in for this family affair.

  • 050 - Abercrombie & Figure Your Sh*t Out
    Alexa's not-so-secret obsession with documentaries comes out in this episode, kids. The dynamic duo discusses the recent Netflix documentary about Abercrombie and Fitch, which involves talk of lawsuits, hiring practices, cologne, collars on collars, and lots and lots of nostalgia (sorry 'bout it). Please tune in for a spirited discussion about shallow hiring, illegal firing, and some of our high school drama.
