Chad n Cheez Podcast

Well it’s no secret, Joel and I have been trying to sync schedules, for about a month, to launch a new podcast show.

What to expect from the Chad and Cheezhead Show?

Well I wouldn’t set your expectations too high, but imagine a couple of guys on bar stools with their favorite lager talking about the online recruitment industry. That’s how I would describe the Chad ‘N Cheezhead Show, and any ERE event you’ve probably attended. We’ll purposely touch on subjects that are controversial and more than likely disagree on certain topics, although don’t expect any RecruitingAnimal WWE rage performances.

On this very first installment our idea was to pick 10 topics and talk, debate, or just laugh about it for 2 minutes, in theory giving us a 20 minute show. Well the end result was an hour, yea no kidding an hour!

After listening check out my version, slightly funnier than Joel’s, of the Chad and Cheezhead Show page, and without further adieu here’s the very first installment… We hope you enjoy!

In this episode:
1. Super Bowl stuff (0:58) - It’s a tad dated although Joel asks if the typical “Colt-fan” was happy Eli got the W? Also SB commercials winners, losers, and favorites.
2. The economy (7:36) - How will the turbulence affect our industry?
3. Acquisitions (12:30) - Who is being gobbled up and why?
4. Startups (19:12) - Our thoughts on Notchup & Standoutjobs.
5. Vertical search engines and permalinks (31:11) - I have to drag Joel away from the ledge on this one. Dude, relax already..
6. Video’s growing influence (42:57) - How will the online recruiting industry leverage video? Monetize? or will we try to stuff it in a traditional box like we always do?
7. High tech vs. high touch recruiting (52:00) - Can the recruiting industry be high tech and high touch?
8. Off to Fort Benning (57:38) - Where? Why? Huh?
9. Closing remarks - (59:17)
