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.

Josh and Drew are still on vacation so here's one more rerun before they return next week to wrap up an eventful summer! In the meantime, they muse about some of the more eye-catching alien films and television shows of the 1980's. Enjoy!
Josh, Drew and Nick(!) pick up where their conversation left off last week and dive in to a full review of the 1984 Milos Forman classic, Amadeus. They determine the most memorable scene, what Mozart's mile time would probably be and how exactly to make Nipples of Venus. Plus lots of other fun facts. But they stop just short of one too many notes.…
Drew, Josh and Nick hop in the time machine and travel back 36 years to 1984 to start talking Amadeus but what ends up happening is they spend way more time talking about some of the huge films from that year and who cleaned up at the Academy Awards the following year, (spoiler: Amadeus). But, alas, they ran out of time, so be sure come back next week for a full review of the film that made classical music cool again. Oh, and please continue to stay safe out there all of you Pop U PUPS! The world may be upside down right now, but Josh and Drew are here to keep you cozy. Go follow us on Twitter @PopUniversityP1.
