THE SANTA CLAUSE Series: Scott Calvin's concussion induced nightmare

The Popcorn Isn't Real: Fan Theory Podcast

#Cinema #Popcorn Isnt Real

33:58

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.

Or... was it The Bobalorian? Today we embark on an epic quest to figure out what Disney has done to Boba Fett and why they have done it.

We need to talk about a small town named Bomont where music is outlawed, and dancing is forbidden. Why, you might ask, would any city make dancing an arrestable offense? Maybe because if they dance, the vibrations will awaken the beasts underground, and gigantic sandworms will burst out and eat everyone! We're absolutely delighted to be joined by S.S. Wilson (creator of Tremors, father of all Graboids) who will help us expose the hidden connection between Footloose and Tremors! Do you like what we do?
