Shownotes
Companies already view payroll as a tax, and private equity is quietly consolidating the trades — that's stated plainly before any optimism enters. Jerremy Alexander Newsome and Dave Conley and guests Ryan Kohler and Sarah Montana open on nervous-system basics — quiet time, morning light, breathwork, hydration — as the floor for staying functional during prolonged workplace volatility. The old American employment deal isn't being renegotiated; it's dissolving, and no government, school, or company addicted to the status quo will adapt first. In the lightning round, the biggest lie sold to 18-year-olds gets a name: the idea that one fixed career path exists. The episode closes on the question the whole series has been circling — when the dust settles, will employers own the AI agents, or will workers.
