Episode 177 - The Value of the BS Credential

The Peluso Presents Podcast

Inspired by a surprising moment, today's show is all about the value offered by that advanced degree, both from a traditional institution and by a for-profit diploma mill. It asks the question: Is that 100K Masters and PhD really worth it even if it comes from a place that hands them out as long as you can pay the bill?

Episode 176 - The Good Old Days – Looking Back

The Peluso Presents Podcast

Inspired by a song I started to think about the good old days. Specifically, I wondered what makes 'the good old days' good? Why do we pine for them and what could you do to make them happen again?

Episode 175 - Calculating Risk vs. Investment With Your Life Choices

The Peluso Presents Podcast

Sometimes there is risk in where we want to go invest our time and money. The risk is in what we will get as a return on that time and money investment. Sometimes, we call it risk, but it's not really, it's a near guarantee of a return. Even so, you'll still have to pay the price in the form of the investment. The big question is: Are you willing to pay the price?

Episode 174 - The Great Reset Switch

The Peluso Presents Podcast

Sometimes you'll put in months and years, and work your way up. Then something happens, a private equity buyout, a market change, or just a new manager. Then the unexpected separation from the company means you have to go somewhere and start from the ground floor.

Episode 173 - The Case for Logic: Spock Was Right – Mostly

The Peluso Presents Podcast

We are emotional beings and emotional beings make emotional decisions. More often than not these emotional decisions can lead to a bad end. Logic works, but too few people use it. Listen and hear how emotions rule the world.

EPISODE 172 - Long Term or Short Term Commitments: Which is Better?

The Peluso Presents Podcast

In part one we looked at the career related aspects of having a short term outlook vs a long term outlook in planning and decision making. This show is part two where we look at the more Life related aspects of short term verses long term commitments.

EPISODE 171: Long Term or Short Term Commitments: Which is Better?

The Peluso Presents Podcast

In life we can have a short term outlook, or work towards the short term goal. Sometimes in life we are looking at the Horizon, we are thinking not about tomorrow, but where we want to be years down the road. We can have both these short and long term outlooks in many areas of work and life! This show is part 1 of 2 where we look at the more work related aspects of short term verses long term commitments.

Episode 170 - Being Savvy

The Peluso Presents Podcast

In this episode we learn how a YouTube influencer illustrates what is in involved in understanding all the things that they don't tell you at work. How did they do it? By being Savvy of course. For some, they are Savvy by nature, for others it takes time and experience. Listen and learn how we can change our perspective to increase our ability to be Savvy in dealing with work and life!

Episode 169 - Vacation Productivity and Planning Destroyers

The Peluso Presents Podcast

For the type A personality (like me), a vacation isn't a way to rest, relax and unwind. It's a great way to get away from the normal demands of life so you can get some work done you've been putting off. Unfortunately, friends, family, and anyone else you vacation with usually has other ideas.

Episode 168 - The Women’s Empowerment Movements Have Completely Failed (Shoot Me Now)

The Peluso Presents Podcast

Clickbait title aside, the commentary in this episode is valuable to really assess the impact of the millions of woman hours that have been put in to empower generations of females. Listen to four stories of four supposedly empowered women, who, when all was said and done, still looked to be rescued by their very own prince charming. Is this normal? Is all hope lost for the majority of women to become strong and independent? Did I just happen across four outliers? Listen an decide for yourself!
