Work Sucks x Peter Laughter (S1, E11)

On this episode of Work Sucks, we sit down with Peter Laughter — lifelong entrepreneur, former staffing-firm owner, and current public speaker who has accumulated enough leadership lessons to fill several very candid management manuals.  With a mix of charm, honesty, and the kind of perspective only earned by surviving a thousand tiny workplace implosions, Peter breaks down what great leadership actually looks like — and why most of us get it wrong. He reflects on his wildest staffing adventures, the surprising truths he learned while building companies from scratch, and the moments that forced him to become the kind of leader he wished he’d have been earlier.  If you’ve ever wanted a no-nonsense, deeply human roadmap for staying honest while guiding other humans, Peter’s stories and insights might just change how you think about work… and maybe even how you show up on Monday.  Check out Peter's website [https://peterlaughter.com/] and find him on LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterlaughter/]

Work Sucks x Greg Arthur (S1, E10)

On this episode of Work Sucks, we sit down with Greg Arthur, a product strategy and learning innovator who’s seen (and survived) his fair share of workplace chaos. From passionately debating the correct pronunciation of “Blink-182” to reliving the unforgettable era of the piano-key necktie, Greg brings humor, insight, and a surprising amount of nostalgia to the table.  Greg spills on his worst on-the-job moments and reveals the simple fixes that could’ve saved everyone a whole lot of pain, panic, and passive-aggressive emails. It’s fast, it’s funny, and it might even make your job feel slightly less terrible.  Check out Greg's website [https://twocirclesstudio.com/] and find him on LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/rethinkinglearning/]

Work Sucks x Steve Foulger (S1, E8)

This week on Work Sucks, we sit down with Steven Foulger, a Director of Organizational Transformation and People Services — and the HR guy everyone wishes they’d had. Steven wasn’t just hired into HR… he was handpicked for it, thanks to his uncanny, almost superhero-level ability to solve workplace problems with empathy, clarity, and a people-first mindset that makes every HR stereotype shrivel up and cry.  Steven walks us through the triumphs, chaos, and “please tell me this didn’t actually happen” moments of his career, all while proving that HR doesn’t have to be scary, bureaucratic, or allergic to fun. He’s equal parts strategist, empath, and workplace myth-buster — and yes, he makes it all sound easy.  If you’ve ever wondered what HR could be in the hands of someone who genuinely cares about humans, this episode will restore your faith in the entire profession.

Yes… an actual fish fight. We go there.  Kirsty brings the perfect mix of humor, heart, and “are-you-kidding-me” stories as she walks us through the wildest requests she’s ever been expected to handle — and how she learned to shut them down with style, clarity, and zero guilt.  If you’ve ever wondered how to stay sane in a world where your job occasionally demands the impossible, Kirsty’s insights — and boundary-setting superpowers — are the breath of fresh air you need.  Find Kirsty [https://www.linkedin.com/in/kirsty-baggs-morgan-hr-rebel-and-super-connector/] and Evolving HR [https://www.linkedin.com/company/evolving-hr-app/about/] on Linkedin.
