    Getting Schooled on Your Resume, with Chris Harper, co-founder of ZippedScript

    Getting Schooled on Your Resume, with Chris Harper, co-founder of ZippedScript

    Chris Harper, co-founder of ZippedScript, stops by to talk about the number of people who lie on their resumes and shares his company's approach to flipping the script on education verification.  ZippedScript offers global degree verification (in the U.S. and for any country in the world) instantly using new technology that connects directly to an institution’s database with 100% accuracy. Chris says this is only the beginning as they have plans to expand into other areas on the resume where people are even more likely to misrepresent the truth. So, if you didn't go to Harvard or didn't get that Master's Degree in Political Science, it's time to either update your resume or get to work on those applications.

    BRAIN CANDY with Alexander Zaitchik

    BRAIN CANDY with Alexander Zaitchik
    As returning guest and investigative journalist Alexander Zaitchik researched the twisted history of the pharmaceutical industry and big pharma's approach to patenting medicine for his book OWNING THE SUN:A People's History of Monopoly Medicine from Aspirin to COVID-19 Vaccines, a movie kept coming into his mind: Brain Candy, the Kids in the Hall's 1994 cult comedy about the devastating life cycle of a fictional cure-all psych med. He discovered that while the Kids in the Hall had set out to make a comedy broadly satirizing the widely prescribed '90s mood boosting drug Prozac, they'd accidentally created a comedy nightmare with surprising bearing on the real life practices of drug manufacturers. Brain Candy is an unheralded, rare example of perfect comedy. It's as dense with jokes as Airplane that ties together those hundreds of jokes into a tight, original story with a coherent argument. It was made at a time when the Kids in the Hall were estranged from each other and suffering from a range of crippling personal losses. It was critically lambasted, ignored by audiences and quickly dumped by its studio. I'd include a link for where you can stream it legally but, hey! Guess what? There's no such link. You can buy it on Blu Ray or DVD (and maybe find it and watch it, hint hint) but you can't legally stream it. This episode is a long time coming. Alex and I are both longtime Kids in the Hall fans and have been talking about doing a CDC episode about Brain Candy for years. Our dawdling worked out well. Our plan was to devote an episode to a largely forgotten cult movie. Little did we know that the Kids in the Hall would release a new sketch show on Amazon Prime that opens with a sketch about Brain Candy and features characters from the movie in several sketches.
