The Chad & Cheese Podcast
Evergreen Podcasts
Everything people and workforce—recruiting, marketing, technology, talent management, and workforce economics—delivered with biting sarcasm and unapologetic snark. Industry misfits Chad Sowash and Joel Cheesman bring their no-holds-barred opinions to dissect news, trends, and the occasional dumpster fire. If you’re a hiring company, staffing firm, or vendor looking for insights (and a thick skin), these two won’t just tell you what’s happening—they’ll tell you why you’re probably doing it wrong. Buckle up, buttercup.

Chad Goes Nuclear on SHRM
Maybe it was the fact Boston was cold in late-May. Maybe it was the rain at Fenway Park. But whatever it was, as the boys were in Boston this week, Chad was not very happy with SHRM this week. Additionally, Google it sticking it to cookies, LinkedIn looks smart and fake tans will get you blackballed in Australia … or is it New Zealand? Either way. Enjoy and give our sponsors a big, sloppy kiss. Sovren, Canvas and JobAdx rock our world.
