This is Richard. Billionaire. Car wash mogul. The kind of boss who thinks clapping counts as leadership and jet fuel is a personality trait.

In this episode, Richard invites his top lieutenant on a private jet. What follows is a masterclass in power trips, precision scheduling, and a level of ego that makes Chad look downright self-aware.

It’s real. It’s ridiculous. And unfortunately, it’s just the beginning.

Oh—and wait until you hear what his car wash empire is called.

This is Big Mike. Executive. Former college athlete. The kind of guy who thinks “team culture” means open bar and bad decisions.

In this episode, one night out turns into one very public disaster—with HR, the internet, and a tow truck all involved by morning.

It’s real. It’s reckless. And it left a dent you’ll need more than PR to fix.

Chad is back. CEO. Shirtless in the suburbs. The kind of guy who skips the instructions, cracks a beer, and decides he’s got this.

In this episode, Chad takes on a backyard trampoline with nothing but overconfidence and a thirst for dad glory. What follows is a physics-defying disaster, one misplaced spring, and a moment so painful it echoes across the neighborhood (and his reproductive future).

It’s real. It’s ridiculous. And Chad’s still trying to convince everyone it was a bonding moment.

This story hits below the belt. Literally.

This is Rick. Executive. Bluetooth headset guy. The kind of leader who ends emails with just his initials and thinks “executive presence” is a real metric.

In this episode, Rick turns a routine meeting into a courtroom drama—complete with a panicked monologue, surprise evidence, and a final twist ending: he’s the one on trial.

It’s real. It’s reckless. And Rick has no idea he just fired himself.

This story has everything: drama, delusion, and one very confused HR department.

This is Bradly. CFO. Spreadsheet wizard. The kind of guy who can model a buyout in Excel but refuses to acknowledge expiration dates.

In this episode, Bradly ignores medical advice (from his doctor wife), basic food safety, and common sense—all for a pastry. What follows is a masterclass in self-inflicted disaster, featuring expired dairy, high-altitude regret, and a bathroom he may never emotionally recover from.

It’s real. It’s a mess. And unfortunately for Bradly, he has no one to blame but himself.

This story stinks. Bradly did too—just ask his ski house.

This is Chad. CEO. Loafers, no socks. The kind of guy who thinks bottle service counts as leadership and attention counts as admiration.

In our debut episode, Chad tells a story at a corporate dinner that he thinks makes him look cool. It doesn’t. What starts as a night out in Vegas turns into an accidental masterclass in how not to be in charge.

It’s real. It’s cringey. And unfortunately for Chad, it’s just the beginning.

This story is hot. Chad’s wife, according to Chad, is hotter. He made sure everyone at dinner knew it.
