Workplace Movie Hall of Fame: America's Sweethearts

Hosts: Steve Boese & Trish Steed

Today, Steve and Trish discuss the Netflix documentary "America's Sweethearts: The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders," which explores the high-pressure, low-compensation world of professional cheerleading.

The documentary reveals the rigorous recruitment process, where cheerleaders must reapply annually and face stringent criteria, including dance technique, showmanship, and personal appearance. The conversation underscores the need for better compensation, work-life balance, and safety measures in such high-performance environments.
