  • How to Lose Your Dignity at 30,000 Feet
    2025/04/18

    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.

    Know a real-life Michael Scott?

    Or just have a workplace story so awkward it deserves its own HR file? We want to hear it. Funny, absurd, or jaw-droppingly tone-deaf—if it happened at work, it belongs here. Names will be changed (mostly), but the stories stay true.

  • One Last Round (and a Tow Truck)
    2025/04/11

    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.

  • This Is Why Chad Can't Have Tools
    2025/04/05

    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.
