Episode 305 – Football, Friends, and Fond Memories

Geek Out Loud

33:58

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.

Joseph Mulinaro (Joey Marinara) stops by to talk all things that come up. Steve and Joe discuss football, Star Wars, toys of old, kids today (read that like an old man complaining… “kids today…ugh”) and whether or not we should expect a younger generation to develop the same fondness for things that people from the Star Wars generation developed. It’s a wide range of discussions and some good times…AND STEVE DIDN’T GET TO THE ANIMAL STORIES THAT JOE SENT. In fact, it’s never mentioned…well…there’s always the next episode. Your safe place to geek out is on the air.

Steve’s podcasting partner for life Derek from the House of El podcast stops by along with new friend Luke the Geek of Steel from the Geek of Steel podcast. The trio discuss the new Superman trailer, Christmas traditions in the states and abroad, Buc-ee’s, and there are some unfortunate jokes made at the expense of an american icon. (Too many to edit) Basically, we think all of the potentially offensive language has been cut, but we cannot say the same for the offensive jokes. Basically, if you’re offended you can send Steve at e-mail by heading over to supermantvtalk.com and clicking the contact button at the top. This is your late Christmas show with Superman fans. This is the safe place to geek out! THIS IS GEEK OUT LOUD! MONKEYS RIDING DOGS!!!!…

Dave Jones sits in on this episode of Geek Out Loud as Steve tries out a new bit that makes Dave laugh…but not necessarily anyone else. The guys talk Chattanooga Comicon as well as other geeky type topics. Then Steve goes full Big Honkin Show with some serious Animapocalypse news out of South Carolina.

Episode 303 – Does The GI Joe Intro fit? 2:17:16

2:17:16

Steve decides to have a little fun. Classic Zoo Crewers show up in the chat. And a new game is born…will the GI Joe opening monologue fit in the instrumental break of pop or rock songs? Derek then stops by to talk about the big things that have stuck with us since childhood as well as just chew the fat about the first ever Smallville convention. From there chaos strikes as Steve’s computer crashes…and let’s be honest – that kind of thing always takes the wind right out of Steve’s sails. So the show ends after that pretty quickly. It’s a fun time on your safe place to geek out!…

Steve opens the show waiting to join another show, only to discover that other show isn’t happening. It is Steve’s fault…he’s neither a good listener nor a good reader. He may need to walk the reading rainbow. From that confession we enter back into the March(ish) Madness(ish) Bracket(ish). Titanic v. Halloween, Braveheart v. Inception, The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly v. Forrest Gump, and The Godfather tries to make Rocky an offer he can’t refuse. Spoiler Alert…Steve refused. Have fun with episode of GEEK OUT LOUD!…

We’ll celebrate episode 300 later. For now we continue the quest to find the greatest movie score to date. On this episode to help us do that is David Fischer. David has been very active in the chat in these discussions, so with his knowledge of movie it made sense to call him up and bring him in. He did not disappoint. Together with the mixlr chat, he and Steve finish out round one of the comedy/other division. After that Steve talks a little Ghostbusters and offends Italians everywhere while doing a Big Honkin Show style story about a an escaped lion. So much more to happen with the brackets, and it will be happening soon! For now, enjoy this episode of your safe place to geek out.…
