With All Due Respect by Kass and Zena
This show was born from one truth. People are tired of pretending. There are so many things we all think but never say out loud. So we decided to say them.
Two people from very different worlds. One recruiter who deals with every side of human behaviour. One HR leader who sees how people act when the doors close. Together we talk about everything people avoid. Work. Life. Relationships. Culture. The situations everyone feels but no one admits. The uncomfortable honesty that usually stays in private.
Sometimes it is serious. Sometimes it is funny. Most of the time it is both. The goal is simple. Bring real conversations back. Remove the filters. Keep it honest. Keep it human.
If you like truth with humour, if you enjoy the kind of conversations that usually only happen with close friends, you will feel right at home here.
With all due respect, it is time to talk about the things people avoid.
