Welcome to another episode of At the Table with Patrick Lynn Choney, where everything

we talk about is related to changing the world of work, so that more organizations can

be more effective and less dysfunctional, and employees can be more fulfilled and less

miserable.

I'm your host, Pat Lynn Choney, joined as almost always by my co-host Cody Tom.

And back from vacation, how are you doing, Cody?

Feels good to be back.

I know you can't say, as always now, that's a real ender there, that's a funeral of sorts.

Yeah, we had our guest host, Chris DeFanick last time, it's great to have you back, though.

I can't wait to listen to that episode.

As you know, Pat, I don't really listen to our episodes, but I will listen to one I'm

not on, so I can't wait to hear about it.

It's so much easier to listen to it when you don't have to listen to your own voice.

I can vouch for that.

Yeah.

Tracy, how are you doing today?

I am fine today, thanks for asking.

You're going to keep us on the straight and narrow, Matt's on the, on doing our engineering,

as I say, on the keyboard, like he's our musician, and Karen's sitting here with me, too, she

reminds me of questions that I forget to ask and comes up with great ideas.

Okay, Cody, what is today's topic?

The sport of business.
