Corporate confessions: because therapy is expensive and podcasts are free. This week, the Hotline is open—and it’s as unhinged as ever. From choking out a sales rep at a company offsite to fish-related crimes in the office kitchen, we read the wildest workplace stories you sent in. We meet a lactose-intolerant oversharer, debate whether “Demoted” is really for the children, and swap tales of questionable vacation flexes. Plus, we weigh in on dog allergies at work, suspicious “Book an Appointment” profile buttons, and whether Lake Tahoe is genuinely relaxing or a little bit deadly.

When talent meets opportunity…and sometimes total chaos. This week, we’re joined by Colleen Pelly, CEO and founder of The Linchpin Co, to pull back the curtain on how recruiting actually works. From her time hiring for companies like Lululemon and Tesla to building her own firm, Colleen shares the wildest candidate stories, the nightmare clients, and why some companies still won’t hire women. We dig into personality bias, the decline of DEI, and whether AI is about to ruin the hiring process completely. Plus, we debate "crying a little for the bag," if referrals really matter, and whether recruiters ever read the résumé you spent four hours formatting. We want to hear from you!

HR: part therapist, part referee, part corporate cleanup crew. This week, we’re joined by Amy Lentz, Chief People Officer at TOMS and the creator behind HackYourHR, to answer the big question: what does HR actually do all day (besides read your Slack messages)? From her early days working for the Obama administration to landing at TOMS, Amy shares what it really takes to keep a workplace semi-functional. She also gets a front-row seat to some of the wildest corporate confessions we’ve ever collected and breaks down each scandal with her HR perspective. We dig into the secrets of anonymous feedback forms, the ethics of outing an STD at the office, and whether HR is quietly tracking your office romance. Plus, we debate job title upgrades, “Open to Work” etiquette, and whether you should ask for a raise while you’re on a PIP.

Perfectionism: the socially acceptable way to ruin your own life. This week, we’re joined by Dr. Thomas Curran, professor of psychology and author of The Perfection Trap, to explain why perfectionism isn’t a flex—it’s a full-time mental drain. We dig into the difference between high standards and high stress, how perfectionism feeds imposter syndrome, and why social media keeps making it worse. We also break down how to work with perfectionists (or at least survive them), and how to reframe failure before you burn out trying to “fix” something no one even noticed. We want to hear from you!

Warning: this episode contains workplace behavior that would make HR spontaneously combust. The Corporate Hotline is back—and it’s absolutely unhinged. From naked Zoom calls to office hookups and confessions we legally can’t verify. We’re reading the most salacious, shocking, and mildly traumatic workplace stories submitted by followers of Corporate Natalie and Corporate Bro. Natalie shares her engagement story, and we wrap with a debate on jalapeño poppers, cosplay conventions, and the distinction between people watching… and people watching.

From “emotional push-ups” to whether ADHD counts as a superpower, we unpack the psychology of ambitious entrepreneurs, overthinkers, and yes—Ross and Natalie. We break down emotional fitness, how to spot burnout before it wrecks you, and the fine line between rewatching The Office and spiraling.
