About this episode
The Chad & Cheese Holiday Clip Show (aka: HR’s Greatest Hits of 2025)
We cracked open the vault and stitched together the smartest, loudest, and most brutally honest moments from this year’s conversations — because nothing says “holiday cheer” like calling BS on broken hiring.
This episode delivers a full snack tray of takes from leaders who actually run hiring at scale:
🍿 Fake applicants, AI fraud, and résumé chaos🍿 Why job boards are quietly losing leverage🍿 How companies are cutting spend and improving quality🍿 The real role of AI 🍿 Why owning your candidate data actually matters🍿 Human vs chatbot: where the line really is🍿 What happens when recruiters stop playing defense
From Marriott to Domino’s, SmartRecruiters to healthcare, retail, and enterprise — this is the unfiltered stuff people only say when the mics are hot.
Consider this your year-end mixtape of truth bombs, hot takes, and “wait… they actually said that?” moments.
🎄 Press play.🎧 Eat the leftovers.🔥 Start 2026 smarter than your competitors.
