The Weekly Yap w/ Joel and Callie

This week on The Weekly Yap w/ Joel & Callie, we’re joined by special guest Executive Recruiter Brittany Hitt for a school-themed episode full of stories, nostalgia, and a little friendly debate. Joel and Callie talk about their favorite school field trips, including Joel’s memories of Camp Dixie, before taking a trip to Kennedy Space Center to uncover the incredible concrete engineering behind NASA’s launch pads. In Concrete Careers Corner, the conversation turns to whether a college degree really matters when it comes to hiring, with Brittany bringing her perspective as an executive recruiter. Then it’s time for a school-themed Yap Debate: Math or History, Pizza, Burgers, or Mystery Meat, and Homework: Necessary or Unnecessary?

This week on The Weekly Yap w/ Joel & Callie, they tackle the question, “What’s Something You’ve Done That You’ll Never Do Again?” and share the stories, experiences, bad decisions, and memorable moments that led to those hard-earned conclusions. They also take a lap around Bristol Motor Speedway to explore what makes its concrete racing surface so unique, then dive into the growing role of AI in the hiring process and ask whether companies can expect candidates to be completely authentic when AI may be screening them before a human ever sees their application. Finally, the Yap Debate brings three rounds of disagreement over the best pizza chain, best fast-food breakfast, and Walmart vs. Publix.

They also get into a pretty gross but surprisingly cool concrete innovation called “poopcrete,” explore whether taking a counteroffer is actually a good career move, and wrap things up with some highly debatable questions about toilet paper, pineapple on pizza, and Christmas music before Thanksgiving.
