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.

SMALL TALK & BIG KITCHENS, our mini-series on the romcoms of Nora Ephron and Nancy Meyers, continues with the story of a divorc é e looking for love in the wrong place. With the financial success of The Holiday , Nancy Meyers basically had a blank check to get anything greenlit she wanted, so for her next film she looked at her own life and her relationship with Charles Shyer as inspiration for a what if scenario in which a divorced woman has a steamy affair with her ex husband. Join Nick and Scott as they pretty wildly different experiences with a film that doesn’t demand much from it’s audience (despite its title) with 2009’s IT’S COMPLICATED.

In this episode, we’re slicing into one of our all-time favorite conversations with the wickedly talented and endlessly entertaining Todd Farmer .

SMALL TALK & BIG KITCHENS, our mini-series on the romcoms of Nora Ephron and Nancy Meyers, continues with the story of two women ready to be the protagonists of their own Christmas romance. The reaction to Something’s Gotta Give was largely positive, but Nancy felt every compliment came with an asterisk: if this chick flick hadn’t been about people over 55, it never would have been as interesting. So with her follow-up film, Meyers wanted to make a romcom that gave women permission to embrace the simple pleasures of the genre no matter how dopey and tropey they might be. Join Nick and Scott as they swoon over the impeccable vibes of a Nancy Meyers’ transatlantic Christmas classic, 2006’s THE HOLIDAY.
