In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

It started with an irresistible tweet: What are your favorite runs in comics? It’s the kind of easy/hard question grown ass men love to ask themselves, and this time it was being asked by writer Jimmy Palmiotti. Adam leapt into action, contacted Jimmy, and we made our lists. The conversation was a total pleasure because Jimmy’s not only knowledgeable and funny, he’s also a total fanboy of the comics he loves. We covered our favorite runs as well as some of the great work he’s done with the amazing Amanda Conner. Thanks for being on the show, Jimmy!

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’. That ampersand is significant, isn’t it? Because it could have been ‘Deadpool vs. Wolverine’, but the truth is a little more snuggly than that. These dudes are a match made in Marvel Heaven and in our latest episode, only 6 months late, we break down all the ways grown ass men felt about 2024’s blockbuster. Put this one in your ear holes to hear Doug make Adam say, “You must be joking”, to hear Sam give Deadpool & Wolverine a 12-star review, to hear Adam veer heavily in the other direction, and also to hear Acadia Bost’s plans to start a GAM chapter at her university. Music by Adam Bernstein, as always!…

Attention, true believers! We’ve just dropped a very special, no-nonsense, get-in-get-out episode of Grown Ass Men, all about the new work by our friend J.M. DeMatteis. JM makes his pitch for why you should support his new Kickstarter, and also talks about what can happen when hundreds of people contribute to the world of a single fictional character. Music by Adam Bernstein, natch. Oh, and here’s the link to that Kickstarter: http://kck.st/460rQ64…

There are men who carelessly skip over the letters pages in old comic books. But that’s not Doug or Adam. And it certainly isn’t JM DeMatteis, our charming, returning fan-favorite guest. On this episode, we all dive into the best letters ever published in comics, (yes, including the first writing George RR Martin ever had in print) and JM talks about his path from fanboy to letter-writer to comics scribe extraordinaire. It’s a good one! Original music by Adam Bernstein…

When Alex Maleev paints Daredevil, you can feel the sweat in that red suit. When he sketches Miles Morales you might get worried Miles is gonna fall off that building. We know and love his art from Spider-Woman, Moon Knight, Batman, Hellboy, and the Scarlet series, many created with Brian Michael Bendis. But we also know Alex because he lives here in Brooklyn and we were lucky enough to sit down in person with Alex to talk about his gorgeous new series Masterpiece. Also, to talk about why he loves the UFC. Music by Adam Bernstein!…

On this episode, find out why Doug and Adam will NEVER interview Jim Steranko—and why we love him anyway. Artist, writer, historian, magician, escape artist, musician, character designer of Indiana Jones, character designer of Coppola’s Dracula, and owner of an amazing head of hair, there is only one Steranko. We met him at Comicon this year and here’s the story of the handshake that almost cut off the circulation to my whole arm. With music by Adam Bernstein, natch!…

Sure, you’ve heard about Dr. Wu. Peg. Josie. Rikki, who really shouldn’t lose that number. But here’s a question: What do they look like? Well, wonder no more. In this episode, Doug and Adam sit down with the amazing artist who decided to paint every Steely Dan character. You read that right. Joan LeMay has painted ALL of the characters in Steely Dan’s songs in the book she created with the very talented Alex Pappademas. And Joan was just as much of a fun, unpredictable character as any of her subjects. Listen, download, like, subscribe and we promise Mr LaPage will be your man. Original music by Adam Bernstein!…

On the 101st Episode of the Greatest Comic Book Podcast of all time, we dive into uncharted territory: Power Records! In the 1970s, you didn’t just want to read your comics. You wanted to hear them, too. That’s where Power Records came in, creating comic books for your turntable, and this episode plays all the hits, from the Six Million Dollar Man vs Santa, to the Planet of the Apes, to Spidey vs Little Women. Elevating the conversation is the fabulous Kevin Maher. Kevin geeks out as only he can do, and also explains to us why these little 45 RPM records were actually good for kids! As if this isn’t enough, you’ll also get the superhero earworm you didn’t know you needed (by Adam Bernstein and Sam Mastandrea), but you really do need it. Put the needle on the record!
