About this listen

This episode dives into a scandal at Campbell’s where a vice president allegedly disparaged the company’s soup, claimed it contained “bioengineered” chicken, and admitted he no longer eats the product. An employee recorded the remarks, reported them to HR, was later fired, and has now sued for retaliation and emotional distress.

Ocean unpacks the fallout: executive misconduct, HR mishandling, whistleblower protections, and brand risk. Practical takeaways include the need for prompt, documented investigations, protecting reporters, and holding leaders to higher standards to prevent PR, legal, and cultural crises.
