On this episode of MinorityPlus1 Podcast, Britt and Sam, share a hearty laugh over the absurdities of job hunting, the unspoken rules of workplace hierarchies, and the sweet relief of landing a job with actual benefits. With Steve on sick leave, they dive headfirst into the pandemonium of professional life, balancing humor with genuine advice on how to navigate the 9-to-5 while keeping your health and sanity intact.

Turn the volume up as we switch from the office to the on-screen drama of "Vanderpump Rules" Season 11. We're dissecting Ariana and Tom Sandoval's shocking split and the scandal that's sent shockwaves through their friend group. The drama doesn't stop there; we're also weighing in on the cosmic debate of soulmates and Twin Flames against the fiery backdrop of Nicki Minaj and Megan Thee Stallion's latest online clash. It's an emotional rollercoaster with plenty of food for thought.

From the quirky to the profound, this episode of MinorityPlus1 Podcast is a tapestry of conversations you won't want to miss.

This show is a bunch of little snippets, so if you guys aren’t quite familiar with us on social media, that’s what we do. We’re all over social media. We do lives, we do reels, we do stories, we do posts, and we’ve been doing that for years. That’s kind of how we have grown our business, fortunately, and Reels is kind of the thing right now.

Everyone’s doing reels, so we got to do reels too. So obviously how social media works, they push the algorithms to do the kind of things that they want you to do for whatever reason. I think honestly tiktok’s blown up, so everyone’s kind of copying.

But at any rate, what I’ve done here is, we’ve put together 30 to 60 second clips we grabbed them from social media and we threw them together in a show. I think they’re pretty good clips. You may disagree, but I thought, why not throw those together in a show podcast audio format only so you guys can listen.

So you’re going to hear a bunch of different clips and they’ll be splitters in between, so you’ll know that there’s different topics. But my take on random topics that are going on, not just health and wellness, but around the world as well, because some things just don’t make sense. At any rate, I hope you enjoy!

Today, we invite one of our special friends Matthew Brennan, author of “Attention Factory; The story of TikTok and China’s ByteDance”. He is often featured in global media and has delivered presentations on Chinese digital innovation to global firms such as Google, Tencent, DHL, etc. Having monitored the Chinese tech ecosystem closely for a number of years, Matthew is well-positioned to answer our questions, dig deeper into ByteDance’s remarkable success, and share his insights on the mobile-tech environment in the East and West. We will also discuss the digital marketing schemes partaking in all startups and all kinds of business sizes. Last but not the least, some key insights on future tech innovations that can be observed from the ByteDance case.
