Description

Matt, Rhona, and Jocelyn take on the latest headlines shaping the world of work — and they're not pulling any punches.


They kick things off with Points & Pints, unpacking everything from what’s haunting HR pros about past change efforts, to the viral story of faking sick leave when they aren't granted vacation. Then it’s off to The Situation Room for a deeper dive into the week’s most urgent workplace trends.


Special guest Sharon Papo, CEO and Co-Founder of LGBTQ eLearning, joins the show to talk about navigating anti-DEI backlash, building LGBTQ+ inclusive cultures, and how inclusion impacts employee morale and retention.


Finally, in Trending or Ending?, the crew breaks down the latest data showing that business travel is not only back — it’s booming.




Segments include:


- Points & Pints: The headlines HR pros are buzzing about


- The Situation Room: A deeper look at workplace culture flashpoints


- Guest spotlight with Sharon Papo


- Trending or Ending: Are we really back to frequent flyer life?
