Work Chat: The podcast that's about more than just your job

Work Chat is a podcast about the humanity behind and in work. We explore the current state of work, what "modern work" or "the future of work" means, how work came to mean what it does today, what it meant in the past, why work sucks so much today, and how we build a society that celebrate the choices we all make to build, do, and create things with other people, teams, and the relationships we build through them.

In this first episode, I'm interviewing the amazing John Cutler, Head of Product at Dotwork. John has an incredible background and trust me - this is SUCH a great conversation.

But let me tell you about the podcast and why I’m launching it:

Look, I think one of the coolest things people do is work together. It's AMAZING that humans come together and build things! What's truly special about collaborative creation is how it changes us, changes others, and improves our lives.

The relationships we build through work are everything. But let's be honest - work isn't always great. HOW do we make it better? What's good about it? What's bad about it? How do we actually enjoy it?

These questions matter so much today in our world of capitalism and... *gestures broadly*... everything else going on.

That's why this podcast exists! I'll be interviewing business leaders, people outside traditional business, researchers studying work culture, and community builders (because

great communities make companies and work better).

Sometimes I just want to lay around doing nothing, but then I remember how much JOY I get from creating things - especially with other people. THAT'S the whole point of Work Chat.

Let’s GOOOOOO! Welcome to Work Chat! Available wherever fine podcasts are found!!

(and if you can’t tell, I’ve been *heavily* influenced by Atlassian and the previous podcasts they’ve done, along with my wonderful friend & mentor @imyke over at @relay! Also, shout out to the brilliant JD Davis for his epic design work and the awesome @caseyliss for his consistent support!)

@blackqueeriroh Oh brilliant! Technically Queer left such a hole, it’s great to have your wisdom, and mellifluous tones back in my ears.
