Welcome to another episode of At the Table with Patrick Linconey 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 Linconey and I'm joined as always by my co-host Cody Thompson.

How's it going Pat?

I'm also joined as always by Tracy Noble, but she's on the microphone today.

Hello, gentlemen, how are you?

And we've got our engineer, Matt in the room.

How you doing, Matt?

Good, silent, nod, yes, okay, good.

Hey, before we get into the topic, I wanted to say something.

So I listened to our podcasts as a form of sadomasochism.

In fact, you could say to me if I did something wrong,

you can go to prison or you can have to listen to your podcast over and over

and I'd probably take prison.

Because it's not fun.

But one of the things I noticed is that during these podcasts, I always feel the need to keep

the conversation going, like if there's ever any lull, and so I talk a lot just to fill in the spaces.

I'm going to try to fill in the spaces.

I'm going to try not to do that today.

Well, then you're just going to make me miserable
