Some questions must be manufactured. "What to do if your captain has a 5 o'clock shadow?" So fake and cringeworthy.

Sadly this is true. Anything 'new' ever revealed there always came through a different channel first. Perhaps it had value when it was first started.

It’s just an example of “out of touch” with an aging manager and trying to “tap into” what he/they think pilots want.

I would like something like this if he took real questions, stopped this banter with him and Joy, and again, answer real questions. I can only imagine the tough questions that are submitted that they won’t touch with a 10’ pole.

Why don’t we wear name tags?? Serious?

The nametag suggestion made my skin crawl. Is there really some clown out there WISHING that we have names tags on?

Good god, NO!

the simple answer is to do nothing because it's not your responsibility.

Wouldn't be surprised if they have an affair at this point. My wife listens in sometimes and is always asking WTF is going on

Its so cringe, and I'm sure he hates doing it. Why else have a non pilot co host, other than to burn time not answering questions? It rings of the classic "put my own leadership twist on something that I 100% want to get rid of." I'm sure it will be "re-imagined" soon. This weeks episode was literally "Joy isn't here, so go pack sand."

Asking leadership questions has worked literally never. It's all downside for him. Either he says nothing with non-answers--or he makes some sort of news. The latter probably makes his career warning light flash.

My wife has found it entertaining as well. She likes counting how many words he uses to convey absolutely 0 information.

Agreed 100%. It's a clumsy attempt to present the illusion of open communication with employees. The reality is, it's the same old corporate mushroom style management.

Haha. Yeah. We do wear em though...our crew badges. If I had to guess, its some CKA who wants his/her name tag back along with the CKA wings they still wear although they are no longer...
