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.

Howie Klein of Down with Tyranny and the Blue America PAC returns with lots to say about the wholly unqualified people who the convicted felon in the White House has chosen to be in his cabinet. The senate confirmation hearings are running ad nauseum, many concurrently so we can't possibly cover all of them. But we'll do our best today. In addition to the testimony, much of which was filled with lies and non-answers, we'll also expose the failures of many of the Senate Democrats who cast unconscionable votes in support of some of the worst cabinet nominees in history. And we'll recognize and thank those who did the work we elected them to do, asking tough questions and voting against nominees who should never have a seat at the table.

20250304 FOIA Master Jason Leopold on the Nicole Sandler show 1:16:43

11 hours ago1:16:43

1:16:43

Jason Leopold has been dubbed the "FOIA Terrorist" by the government. I don't like the word terrorist, so I call him the FOIA Master... He writes the FOIA Files for Bloomberg News, where he continues breaking news. Jason's work is truly important. I caught up with him a few days ago after our last conversation was delayed due to the LA fires. We have a few minutes left at the end, so I'm also sharing my interview with Craig Unger , author of the book American Kompromat recorded in 2021 when it was released. It's about how Donald Trump is a Russian asset. He'll join us live tomorrow...…

20250303 Another F'ing News Monday on the NicoleSandler Show 59:59

1 day ago59:59

59:59

Mondays are inevitable. Sadly, in recent weeks, the news on Mondays has been tragic and today is no exception. We're still reeling from the spectacle in the Oval Office on Friday and coming to terms with the fact that the man occupying the White House has aligned us with Russia over our allies in Europe. And as further proof that Dump is trying to crash the economy, the stock market took a huge dump today after the orange thing announced that his 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada would go into effect tomorrow.Jonathan Larsen of thefuckingnews.substack.com will be along to talk about the shit show.I'll start the show with what might be my favorite song parody from the Marsh Family. They turned "Puppets on a Kremlin String" around in about 24 hours. It's the perfect commentary on what we witnessed on Friday that we wish would have never happened...…

20250228 Emptywheel Friday And a Massive Oval Office Ambush & Meltdown on the Nicole Sandler Show 1:19:42

4 days ago1:19:42

1:19:42

Today is Friday, when we get together with Marcy Wheeler of emptywheel.net to recap much of what happened in the week leading up to our conversation. We record these shows on Friday mornings here in Arizona/Friday afternoons for Marcy in Ireland. Today, while we were recording, Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelinskyy arrived at the White House to meet with Trump, ostensibly to sign a deal for Ukraine to compensate the US for our help in defending them against Russia. I had the tape-delayed coverage running on a computer screen off to my right. When Marcy and I finished taping, I turned up the volume in time to hear the US president and vice president attack Zelinskyy in an outrageous spectacle that should be the end of this administration. I watched that surreal scene unfold and then replay for the next couple of hours. We saw President Zelinskyy get in his car and leave the White House. I'm still in shock. Although Marcy and I had already recorded the show for today, I knew I couldn't just run it as usual without addressing this sickening, embarrassing moment that history will not look kindly on. I reached out to Marcy who agreed to jump back on the line to start the show live with me so we could address the situation. I have no idea what will happen next, I just know that it's not a great time to be alive. Slava Ukraini.…

20250227 FL Can Help with Howie Klein & Josh Weil on the Nicole Sandler Show 1:00:06

1:00:06

I know. I escaped Florida after living there for half of my life. I don't have many kind words to say about the state that has mostly become a bad joke. But I'll sing their praises if the people of Florida come through on April 1. (And I'm not talking about an April Fools prank!)There are two special congressional races in FL being held that day to replace two of D'ump's cabinet nominees. Matt Gaetz left Congress as the rep for District 1 when he was ridiculously nominated to be AG. Thankfully we dodged that bullet and no longer have Gaetz in Congress. Rep Mike Waltz resigned from his seat representing FL6 to become D'ump's new national security advisor. The special election to fill those two seats from Florida is set for April 1, with the deadline to register this Monday, March 3. Early voting begins March 22.Today, the Democratic candidate running from FL6, Josh Weil, joins Howie Klein and me on the show today. Find out more about him and support him at joshweil.us.As usual, we'll start with the latest news....…

20250226 David Dayen on the State of the News on the Nicole Sandler Show 59:59

6 days ago59:59

59:59

The current regime has announced that they are following the authoritarian's handbook when it comes to controlling the media. Banning the AP from the Oval Office and other press events with the liar-in-chief wasn't enough for them, so now they've decided that they will decide which reporters and media outlets will be allowed to cover the office of the president in the WH Press Pool. The NY Times' chief White House correspondent Peter Baker likened the move to "how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access."Thankfully, David Dayen - executive editor of The American Prospect and one of the best journalists working today - had already agreed to be our guest today. In addition to the never-ending torrent of shit being propelled against the wall (and there's another ton of it today), I'll ask him about the current state of a free press in the US and what these actions portend.…

20250225 Tuesday Afternoon with Digby on the Nicole Sandler Show 59:59

7 days ago59:59

59:59

A huge part of surviving this assault on our nation from within is our ability to maintain our sanity. One lesson I've learned in the past five weeks is that some days are better than others. I look forward to those mornings when the usual pit in my stomach doesn't fully form and I'm able to make it through the day without dissolving into a trembling mess. So far, so good today. I like days like these because I'm more able to catch up on my reading and somehow digest the avalanche of surreal news that ,on a day when the stress, anxiety and depression take over, render me incapable of dealing with it. Sadly, those bad days still outnumber the good ones. But I know it's something I must keep working on because giving in to despair is not an option.On days like this, I like to find the good news. There was actually a bit of it from the Supreme Court, if you can believe it. The extreme court today actually sided with a man whose constitutional rights were violated by prosecutors who wouldn't correct false testimony at his trial. The extremes actually directed the Oklahoma courts to vacate his conviction. A huge step in the right, er, correct direction.I'm encouraged by watching videos of Senator Bernie Sanders who's embarked on a "Fight the Oligarchy" tour - going to Republican districts, encouraging citizens to stand up and demand their representatives stand up to the Trump/Musk regime and for the constitution...I'm thrilled that Heather "Digby" Parton is my guest today. I love talking with Digby any day, and read her blog (at digbysblog.net) every day. We'll talk about today's breaking news and how we continue to fight the oligarchy and save our future.…

20250224 Monday Madness with Joan Walsh on the Nicole Sandler Show 1:00:16

Despite our best efforts to keep the weekend going, Mondays inevitably arrive. And with Mondays come the reality of the shit that hit the fan over the weekend. And the madness began Friday evening when we learned that D'ump has his unqualified, drunken idiot of a Secretary of Defense fired the highly qualified chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. At "The Nation," Joan Walsh's article on this travesty carries the headline, "Make No Mistake, This is Trump's Worst Move Yet".And that says something, as we know the moves he'd previously made.Joan Walsh joins me today to discuss wtf is happening and assist me in my search to find reasons for optimism...…

11 days ago1:16:48

1:16:48

With the D'ump/Musk regime working at breakneck speed to destroy our democracy, it's hard to keep up with it all. That's one reason I'm so grateful that Marcy Wheeler of emptywheel.net sits down with us for an hour (or more) each Friday to help us understand what happened that week. Since Marcy is in Ireland and I'm in Arizona, we record these sessions right around noon ET. By the time it goes live at 5ET/2PT, some things may have already changed .. as is the case today.When we got around to discussing the case of NYC Mayor Eric Adams, we were still waiting on Judge Ho's ruling on the DoJ's order to drop the bribery and corruption charges against him. Shortly before 2pm ET, Judge Ho refused to immediately close the case. Instead, he appointed an outside lawyer -- Paul W. Clement, US solicitor general under Pres GW Bush - to advise the court on the matter.The Washington Post reporting that the "judge noted that 'there has been no adversarial testing' of the government’s push to abandon the Adams prosecution — a controversial move that prompted the resignation of at least eight federal prosecutors, including Danielle Sassoon, the former acting U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York.“Normally, courts are aided in their decision-masking through our system of adversarial testing, which can be particularly helpful in cases presenting unusual fact patterns or in cases of great public importance,” the judge wrote."This means that Judge Ho won't decide before mid-March whether to grant the dismissal of the case against Adams.As for the rest of what we covered on today's show... who knows?…

20250220 Opposite World Thursday with Howie Klein- Nicole Sandler Show 59:51

12 days ago59:51

59:51

I've long theorized about our existence in "Opposite World" but never has it been more apparent than today as the sitting US President lies to the world about who started and is responsible for Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the ongoing war, now in its third year. The ONLY chance we have at making it out of this mess with any semblance of democracy in place is in the hands of Congressional Republicans. We only need a few in the House and four in the Senate, but are any of them willing to challenge the self proclaimed King of America and put their country and our constitution ahead of their jobs? I wouldn't bet on it, as was clear this morning when Kash Patel was confirmed as Director of the FBI.It's Thursday, so Howie Klein will step away from his writing at DownWithTyranny.com to talk with us about the mess we're in...…

1:12:09

I try to follow what's happening closely, but there's only so much my mind and psyche can handle. I'm quite fortunate to have Marcy Wheeler as a friend who joins me every Friday to recap much of what happened in the week just ending. At least much of what we need to know. (We'd need much more than an hour to cover all the shit they throw at the wall in any given week!) Today we cover a lot of territory, but focus in on the "Thursday Afternoon Massacre" at the DoJ, as the Attorney General (sic) has ordered prosecutors to drop the criminal charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams (bribery, corruption, you name it) so that he can help President D'ump do his vile and dirty deeds to immigrants. We record these Friday sessions before noon ET, so more unthinkable betrayals of the law and the trust of the American people may have happened since...

20250213 DoJ Vet Lisa Graves Weighs In on the Nicole Sandler Show 59:59

My friend Lisa Graves served in the Justice Dept under Attorneys General Janet Reno and John Ashcroft in both the Clinton and GWBush administrations. She's been chief counsel for nominations under then Senate Judiciary Chair Patrick Leahy, and her CV has many more examples of her legal bona fides. These days, Lisa is Executive Director of the watchdog group True North Research, but she appears regularly on this show in her personal capacity as a citizen, not representing any organization.With all of the actions taken by this new horrific administration over the last 25 days, what I understand is that the vast majority of them are not only illegal but unconstitutional. Today, Lisa Graves returns to the show to try to help me make some sense out of what's going on.…

I frequently exclaim that we're living in 'Opposite World'. It's a place filled with gaslighting where things are pretty much the exact opposite of what we're being told. D'ump and his cult followers, while screaming that WE were stealing the election are actually the ones who've been stealing OUR votes. Remember the newish warning: Every accusation is a confession.In his new film, VIGILANTES, INC: AMERICA'S NEW VOTE SUPPRESSION HITMEN, Greg explains how they've been doing this and why Donald Trump is sitting in the Oval Office again. You can see it for free right now at gregpalast.com, on YouTube and Amazon Prime.I hope you'll watch both the film and my interview with Greg Palast, share them widely, and work to insure this never happens again.…

20250211 Knowledge is Power with Tom Schaller -Nicole Sandler Show 59:59

21 days ago59:59

59:59

It's been a long time since my 8th grade civics class. I did learn a lot from Mr. Patton back then, but I haven't brushed up on much of what I learned then since. But we're being told a lot of stuff about our government, and the newly empowered administration is doing a lot of things that appear to be not only counter to what I learned, but also unconstitutional. Speaking of the constitution, we hear we're either approaching a constitutional crisis or we're smack dab in the middle of one. But do we really know what a constitutional crisis is. And how do we deal with one when it happens? Tom Schaller is a political science professor at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. I first met & interviewed him years ago when he was a political columnist for the Baltimore Sun. We also spoke about some of his books including his latest, WHITE RURAL RAGE: THE THREAT TO AMERICAN DEMOCRACY . I couldn't think of a better guest to invite on to help us get back to basics so we can understand what's happening in and to our country today as we attempt to make sense of the nonsensical.We'll start with some of the latest news, then get some important knowledge from Dr. Schaller.…

Each Monday I'm joined by Jonathan Larsen who actually compiles the news every fucking day at thefuckingnews.substack.com - and then does more original reporting at jonathanlarsen.substack.com too. And he hangs out with us on Mondays to talk about as much of it as we can.Today, some good news is tempered by a depressing thought. It's the new existential question of our surreal life... who can enforce the laws in a system of checks and balances when the "executive" won't recognize the other two branches authority and power?…
