Business is Bullshit
Is biohacking about health? Or is it just marketing? In this episode of Business Is Bullshit, James Hornick, Jared Gibson, and Jon Tsourakis break down how modern biohacking has become a playground for hucksters selling simple solutions to complex health problems. This is not an attack on people trying to get healthier. It is a critique of the influencers, supplement companies, and self-appointed experts who profit from confusion, fear, and distrust of institutions. We get into: Why cold plunges, alkaline water, carnivore diets, coffee demonization, and other trends sound smart but fall...

Nothing meaningful gets done after December 15, yet somehow everyone pretends it does. In Episode 27 of Business Is Bullsh*t, we tear into the absolute nonsense that shows up in offices during the holidays. From forced cheer to fake productivity, this is a full teardown of corporate holiday culture: Treating the week between Christmas and New Year’s like a normal work week makes you an asshole “Use it or lose it” PTO policies are garbage Busy work exists solely to make bad managers feel better Year-end “spend the budget or lose it” thinking is institutional stupidity ...

Everyone loves to talk about “the grind.” No one wants to talk about what happens after it breaks you. In this episode, we call bullshit on the idea that burnout is just weakness, laziness, or something you can power through with another coffee and a motivational quote. We break down what burnout actually looks like, including emotional exhaustion, brain fog, irritability, and loss of empathy, and why high performers are often the ones most affected. We talk about: Why burnout is not just about working too much, but working on the wrong things The difference between time management and...

Your network is everything until you torch it. In Episode 25 of Business Is Bullshit, James Hornick, Jared Gibson, and Jon Tsourakis break down why people keep burning their networks to the ground, often without even realizing it. From sloppy introductions to unreturned emails, ghosting, bad client work, bogus referrals, and the all-too-common “I definitely want to connect!” lie at networking events, the guys dig into the small behaviors that quietly destroy trust and opportunity. They cover the three roles in every referral situation: the referral, the referee, and the connector. And why...

Everyone wants to be a “disruptor.” But let’s be honest—most of the time, it’s not disruption. It’s survival. In this episode, Jon, James, and Jared break down why “disruption” is one of the most overused (and misunderstood) buzzwords in business. From Kodak and Blockbuster to Uber, Amazon, and Netflix, we get into what actually happens when companies don’t adapt—and why the ones that do often stumble into change rather than plan it. We also dig into the personal side: why people resist change, stay too long in bad jobs, and call it “stability.” Sometimes disruption...

Everyone’s been told the same tired career advice: “Follow your passion.” “Learn to code.” “Get a degree and you’ll be set.” Yeah… about that. In this episode, James Hornick, Jon Tsourakis, and Jared Gibson dismantle the entire playbook of “safe” career moves — from the myth of job security to why AI, offshoring, and corporate downsizing have made traditional advice completely useless. They dig into: Why “follow your passion” is a rich kid’s game. How “learn to code” turned into the new unemployment trap. The STEM vs. liberal arts flip no one saw coming....

Most people suck at networking. They treat it like speed-dating for sales, pitch everyone they meet, and wonder why it never works. In this episode of Business is Bullshit, we break down: **Why only 25% of professionals actually network (even though 80% know it’s critical). **The difference between genuine relationship-building and “transactional sharks.” **Horror stories: zombie networkers, liars who never follow up, and yes—clowns. **Proven strategies for making networking actually work: listening first, quality over quantity, and building centers of influence (COIs). **Why AI will...

Why do we put founders on a pedestal like they’re visionaries instead of just people? In this episode, James Hornick, Jon Tsourakis, and Jared Gibson break down the myth of the “genius founder” — and why it’s mostly smoke and mirrors. We dig into: The Zuckerberg-in-Hawaii land grab and other billionaire bad behavior How Adam Neumann, Travis Kalanick, Elizabeth Holmes, and SBF went from celebrated founders to cautionary tales Why fans side with NFL owners over players (hint: worshipping billionaires over millionaires) The cultural forces that drive founder worship: media mythmaking,...

Cold calls. Spammy LinkedIn DMs. “Bumping this up” emails. Outbound sales tactics are everywhere—and they’re garbage. In this episode, James Hornick, Jon Tsourakis, and Jared Gibson go off on why outbound is broken, how lazy salespeople kill their own chances, and why relevance matters more than fake personalization. We break down: **The worst cold outreach tactics we’ve seen (and why they fail) **Why chasing the 3% “in-market now” buyers is a losing game **How AI tools like Clay can help—but only if you know what you’re doing **What actually works: strategic lists, events,...

Grinding 24/7 isn’t a flex. It’s a problem. In this episode of Business Is Bullsht*, we torch the myth that constant busyness equals success. From tech bros “sleeping under their desks” to LinkedIn humblebrags about 80-hour weeks, we break down why hustle culture kills creativity, wrecks teams and hides bad business models. The most successful people we know? They work less, think more, and build systems that run without them. Work smarter. Stop bragging. Hustle culture is bullsh*t.

info_outlineThe Get Shit Done Experience asked to interview us.
Word is, Jared’s got dirt on someone — or maybe John Morris just lost a bet.
Either way, the host had his hands full.
Watching the circus is one thing. Getting pelted with elephant shit is another.
But John didn’t flinch.
He juggled our three overly opinionated personalities like a seasoned Gibsonton carnival clown — and didn’t drop a single pin.
