Customer Reviews
Platitudes & Clichés
This podcast really needs to hire some real producers and writers with actual (I.e. non-business-school) educations. There is not an original thought to be found here, just a torrent of corporate clichės and buzzwords. If you asked an A.I. to write a parody of striving business types trying to sound ethical and smart, it would give you something very much like this show.
