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.

Do Standup Stories Have to Be True? 52:26

منذ 1 year52:26

52:26

Syrian comedian Badr Laffar (@badr.comedy) joins Ariel (@ariel.bialski) and Jordan (@jordanthomasgray) to discuss truth in standup. How much of a standup story has to be true, if any? Can you lie about surviving 9/11 if it gets laughs? Does it matter that Bo Burnham was living with his girlfriend and dog while filming Inside? Does Ariel have diarrhea? The gang tackles these questions and many others in this titillating new episode.

Why is Stand-up Comedy So Difficult? 1:01:17

منذ 1 year1:01:17

1:01:17

Ciao! This week Beatrice (@beatricerossano) joins Jordan (@jordanthomasgray) and Ariel (@arielbialski) to complain about standup being so very hard. Everyone thinks their job is the hardest job in the world and almost no one is right about that. But why is stand-up comedy in particular considered to be one of the most notoriously difficult pursuits to engage in? Is standup harder than basketball? Can you master standup comedy just by doing open mics? Why don't top-level standup comedians teach standup? Is writing harder than performing? Could Louis CK beat Chris Rock in a fist fight? Do you have to be delusional to be a standup comedian? How does the Dunning-Kruger psychological phenomenon relate to standup? We meander around these questions and many more!

Ariel (@arielbialski) and Jordan (@jordanthomasgray) get together to discuss Jordan's recent confidence crisis after doing standup in New York and the overall role of confidence in standup. How do you gain confidence? What's the danger of being overconfident? Does confidence even matter? Ariel and Jordan also discuss the open mic scene in New York, the risk of doing solo shows only 2 years into standup, and the importance of believing in your material.

Mental Health in Stand-up with Andrzej Sosnowski 1:10:46

منذ 2 years1:10:46

1:10:46

On this especially strange, meandering episode of The Comedy Hole Podcast, Andrzej Sosnowski (@comedyandy) joins Ariel Bialski (@arielbialski) and Jordan Thomas Gray (@jordanthomasgray) to have a wide-ranging conversation about the delicate issue of mental health in standup comedy. We are not mental health professionals - we are comedians - so please ignore this entire episode if you are looking for advice on mental health. Nothing feels better to a comic than a fantastic set, and nothing feels worse than an epic bomb. When writing new material, comedians typically have to endure a lot of bombing to work out even a small amount of reliable, polished material. This push and pull cycle of on-stage success and failure has a way of exacerbating underlying (or overt) mental health conditions, and it's unfortunately a common occurrence for comedians to have a psychological break, especially in the open mic circuit. The gang makes several attempts to talk about this problem, but mostly they get distracted and talk about other stuff.

Jordan is writing this description and he wasn't listening during the recording, so he doesn't really know what was discussed. Stick around until the end for some JUICY interpersonal drama between Jordan and Ariel. Will The Comedy Hole Podcast collapse into chaos without Beatrice (@beatricerossano)? Will Jordan and Ariel get married? Will Gaweł go back in time to hand Martin Luther King Jr. a Pepsi? Only one way to find out! Gaweł has performed standup comedy for longer than he'd care to admit in both English and Polish. You might know Gaweł from Comedy Central Poland, or maybe from his hit podcasts "Did You Get That?" and "Nagrałeś to?!" Here are some things the gang discusses: Gaweł comments on Jordan and Ariel's masculine physiques Who are Laurel & Hardy? ADHD & Polish sausages #methree Ariel gets angry Which mental disability does Jordan have? What's it like to bomb in two languages? Why doesn't Jordan ever listen and doesn't Jordan appreciate how much time it takes for Ariel to edit this podcast? What's it like to perform on Comedy Central Poland? Do comics need a union? How to negotiate absurd venue fees when booking solo shows (just use a free venue) Ariel gets even angrier Gaweł's pet peeves at open mics How has standup in Poland changed over the last 10 years? Ariel gets angrier than ever and cures racism! Gaweł talks about his first English open mic experience in Seattle Should comedians ever pay to perform at open mics? Is capitalism bad?
