Host Show: Celebrating our 15th Anniversary!

Today, February 1st, marks the anniversary of our very first show with an air date of February 1, 2010 and we take a few moments to mark the occasion. Michael and Robin also discuss the first 12 days of the Trump Administration (part deaux) including the assault on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion as well as the massive changes afoot at the NLRB and the EEOC - and we're not even in week 2 yet!  So what's in store for HR over the next several months....and the next 4 years? They also chat about the need to move from DTHR's original home/platform (after 1,165 episodes and close to 1 million downloads on that platform alone) and look ahead to season 16 here at the Drive Thru!

Drive Thru HR : A New Home

On February 1, 2025, Drive Thru HR [https://drivethruhr.online/] will be celebrating the anniversary of our very first show - aptly titled "Everything HR."  (It's also quite likely that not a single soul would have predicted we would still be here 15 years later) After 1,665 episodes and well over a million listens/downloads (across all platforms), we have migrated from Blog Talk Radio to our new home base.
