Chuck and John do a twist on the normal episode, taking headlines you may have read and heard about and diving into them to pull out the lessons to be learned. In this jam-packed episode, the team talks through a several topics. 

Can making someone work longer shifts be illegal? The team's favorite answer - It depends. 

When companies are pulling back the reigns on WFH, is it inadvertently creating a boys club? How is this shift in policy putting unfair challenges on men vs. women? 

And what is to be done about poaching employees from other teams? This complex and not-new topic may have some important considerations around it.
