About this listen

This bonus episode kicks off our “Workplace Tea, Explained” series, where real HR scandals meet real talk. We’re breaking down the alleged drama between the CEO and Chief People Officer of Astronomer at a Coldplay concert (yes, you read that right) and what it means when HR becomes part of the headline instead of handling it.

We unpack why undisclosed relationships at the top are a compliance nightmare, how power dynamics create toxic risks, and why your company might need a Monday-morning damage control plan for Friday-night antics.

Whether you’re leading HR or just dodging dysfunction, this episode is your guide to protecting credibility, culture, and common sense with a dash of humor.
