The Brothers Deeney podcast

33:58

In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

The Book of Noel - Hot Frosty 34:32

πριν 11 weeks34:32

34:32

Does the film live up to the title? No. It's your classic "girl puts scarf on a sexy snowman with abs and it comes to life and the village all believe him and they end up rattling" story. Packed to the gills with Mean Girls references and even a mention of A Christmas Prince. Netflix love reminding us of just how much shit they've made. Last one of this run, be sure to check out all our other episodes on terrible Christmas films. Merry Christmas to you and please never change. Support the show…

The Book of Noel - Father Christmas Is Back 38:26

Father Christmas is coming to town. A town in Yorkshire to be precise. Do you like bad acting, contrived plots, sarcastic sex scenes, vandalised Christmas trees, and no jokes? Then do I have a film for you! This one's definitely on the naughty list. A surreal blend of boring and slapstick that appeals to absolutely everyone... that reads the Daily Express. The moral we take from all this is that, no matter how terrible your script, Kelsey Grammar can still weave his magic. Support the show…

The Book of Noel - Holidate 38:33

You better watch out, you better not cry, you better not pout I'm telling you why... Holidate is awful. Just bloody awful. We're up to our old tricks reviewing terrible Christmas films and I'm ashamed to say, we picked this one. It's crass, it's not funny, it's boring, the characters are horrible, there's no chemistry, it's all in a bloody shopping mall. Bon appetite! Oh and excuse the weird non sequitur about "lady buffets". Support the show…

The Book of Noel - Jingle All The Way 2 34:20

Merry Christmas everyone (you can't even say that any more apparently my dad told me) and welcome back to the Book of Noel: our crazy adventure into Christmas's darkest stocking. Today, we clearly haven't learnt our lesson and are talking about the sequel to a film we all hated and we hate this one slightly less, but that means it works less as a piece of entertainment. Given there's so little to talk about here, we end up deciding which of the Mean Girls characters is most likely to soil themselves. Silent niiiiiight.... Support the show…

The Book of Noel - The Princess Switch 36:54

πριν 1 year36:54

36:54

The final one of 2023 and it's a doozy. The Princess Switch is a cinnamon sprinkled malarial dream and no mistake. It takes all the best bits of Trading Places and Comedy of Errors and completely ignores them. It glorifies all monarchies like all of these f***ing things do, and reminds us all that all you need to do to find the one, is to start proceedings with knockabout deceit. Hudgens is good company, though. Merry Christmas Support the show…

That's better! Proper Hallmark nonsense. Never before has a movie had lower stakes. It's your classic boy meets girl, boy gets girls... that's it. Set in smalltown USA, we felt absolutely back home here after the car crash that was Christmas on Mistletoe Farm. Support the show

Book of Noel - Christmas on Mistletoe Farm 43:07

πριν 1 year43:07

43:07

Prepare yourselves... For something so foul it sends zombies back into the ground, vampires back to their coffins, and Frankensteins back to their labs. This. Is. Mistletoe. Farm. Easily the worst film we've ever reviewed/seen. Seriously, we dare you... we DARE you to watch this abomination. It ruined films for the both of us and now we only watch flick books and them zoetrope things at the Media Museum in Bradford. We thing it might be a bit like the ring in that we're gonna get done in by a lass from out of a telly if you don't watch it and pass on the curse. Awful, awful business. Support the show…

This film is great. Yeah, we're shocked too. The world's best handsome writer has a mum that's dead now and meets a lady who's mum isn't dead but it feels like it. They fall in love and its genuinely touching. Join two men gushing over a Hallmark romcom. Support the show

Book of Noel - A Christmas Chronicle 45:18

πριν 1 year45:18

45:18

Netflix describes this movie as "feel good". Don't believe them as you won't feel ANYTHING. A Christmas Chronicle was the vanguard of the Netflix Christmas vehicle that spawned two sequels. TWO! It's trash. If you like Kurt Russell so much you'll watch anything with him in it; even Escape from LA, even Deathproof, even Crypto... Id' still recommend you stay away from this. It's a lot of things, but most of all it's boring. Conal and Joe do share their favourite Christmas presents ever though. That's a good bit. Support the show…

It's Christmas time, that means it's time to delve into the Netflix Christmas Universe and this time we've gone for the big one: A Christmas Prince. Do you like vague European monarchies? Have you ever posed as a personal tutor to get a scoop for a magazine? Have you never heard of Aldovia either? If the answer to any of those questions is "yes", this could be the video for you.

We know, we know. It's been an embarrassingly long time, but we're back now. Shut up! In this, the last episode of the series, we look at something very close to our hearts and our new branding: brothers. So many good brothers: the Marxes, the Kemps, them Roman ones that drank off a wolf. Add to that list the brothers Deeney and we've got ourselves a podcast. We don't ask that you like us, we only demand that you love us unconditionally. Support the show…

We're back (sorry about the delay) for the penultimate episode of the series and what a ride it has been. This time the Brothers Deeney turn their hand to the wonderful world of weird animals. These aren't the one you'll see on a family crest (even though Deeney has a snake on its crest. Fact.). These are the animals you have to call a professional to get rid of. Ugly, slimy, spikey, and just generally minging, these are the creatures that make you challenge your faith and lock your doors. Oh, and Joe went to a sperm bank. What an episoide description!

Grandma we love you. And we really do. Pack your pyjamas in a bag, you're staying at your nanna's tonight. Grandmas are an amazing, often patronised group that pass on their invaluable wisdom for no fee other than a wrinkly kiss upon parting. Without grandmas we wouldn't be, and we're eternally grateful for that. Ignore the weird political beliefs and quaint insistance on things being done in a very particular way and you've got yourself the best people going. Coincidentally, Conal and Joe have EXACTLY the same grandparents. Weird. Sazzie doesn't. Support the show…

What's scarier than being away for six weeks? Nothing, that's what. Yes, we're back and scarier than ever with a whole 50+ minutes dedicated to all the scariest stuff. Heights, spiders, confidend spaces, the number 13, and even spoons. It seems like there's a phobia for everything. One thing you shouldn't be afriad of though, is supporting us on Patreon.
