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.

TATER TOTS! Happy 25th episode! We're so glad to have you here with us, listening to our random ramblings. Hey, quick question - do you have Borax under your cabinet? What about old milk in the 'fridge? Did you know that individuals used to add borax and other cleaners to foods to make them appear unspoiled? There's even more, if you listen. And...patent labels for quacky remedies from the past.

Tater Tots! Do you have a green thumb? A long while ago, there was an insane market for tulips. That's right - the flower. If you happened to own one, well..you could've found yourself wealthy if you traded or sold it in time. Check out this episode for the rest of this odd historical event.

*DISCLAIMER* Jess, here. I wanted to apologize, some of my sound quality the past few episodes has been quite poor. I'm unsure what is wrong with my mic, but I aim to fix it ASAP. Tater Tots! Do you love potatoes as much as we do? Join us on our journey about the history of a potato battle, as well as the history of instant potatoes. There may also be some instant potato wrestling involved. Note: Wifey and Wifey are NOT involved in the instant potato wrestling. PSA: This episode does get a bit political. Please be respectful of the opinions stated, as we are all adults.

Hey Tater Tots! Join us for our first two-part episode about Alcatraz, one of the most famous prisons in the country.

We couldn't possibly go into everything, even if we did many more episodes. It's such an interesting subject for us and we can't wait to finish it up for you all! Loves!

Hey Tater Tots! This episode is a bit longer as we brush against some points from the Jonestown tragedy. Please note that this episode speaks of suicide, child death and captivity, as well as cults and other topics that can be upsetting. Listen at your own risk. We do not dive heavily into this topic, just graze over the transitions from compound to compound and discuss the spiral into psychosis that Jim Jones clearly suffered. We love you all and hope to hear from you soon. See you next week!
