We are talking everything from black tie outfit stress to internet pile-ons. Dani and Jordan start with a funny recap of their formal Christmas party prep: pregnancy body feelings, dress hunting, a last minute red Amazon gown, a steamer that soaks Jordan's shirt, and the kind of tiny misunderstanding that somehow feels huge when you are married and trying to get out the door on time. Then they dive into Alix Earle and Braxton, Jaclyn Hill's viral “it is the algorithm” video and why so many people are weighing in, plus what it is like to live and work online right now. They talk Trad Wife versus Girl Boss extremes, the Ballerina Farm discourse, “relatable” content in a rough economy, Stella at the Nutcracker, and how to stay sane when the internet is doing the most.

There was a time when the office Christmas party was the highlight of the corporate year — big budgets, elaborate celebrations, and stories that still get whispered decades later. But how did this tradition start? Who decided employers should host a holiday bash in the first place? This special holiday bonus episode looks at the surprising origins of the office Christmas party and why it evolved into the event it is today - usually a bit tamer and more subdued. That's what we explore as we kick off this special holiday bonus episode. https://www.ncnewsonline.com/archives/workplace-the-wild-history-of-holiday-office-parties/article_4895ce64-538c-59ce-810f-1f37fa71b816.html Every holiday season, people shoot hours of video — and most of it ends up dull, shaky, or misses the magic entirely. Yet your phone has the power to capture truly great moments if you know a few simple techniques. Steve Stockman joins me to explain how to get crisp, compelling holiday video using equipment you already own. Steve has directed hundreds of TV commercials and shows and created the popular video course and bestselling book, How To Shoot Video That Doesn't Suck (https://amzn.to/46Q7E5y). Steve's video course: https://stevestockman.com/ And if holiday shopping leaves you exhausted before you ever set foot in a store, it might not be the crowds — it's the parking. You'll hear a simple strategy that makes finding a spot much less stressful so the whole trip is more enjoyable. https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052970204026804577098451316357124 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS AURA FRAMES: Visit ⁠⁠⁠https://AuraFrames.com⁠⁠⁠ and get $45 off Aura's best selling Carver Mat frames by using promo code SOMETHING at checkout.

It's that time of the year when workplaces are winding down, the Christmas parties are gearing up, and the line between "festive" and "HR headache" can get pretty thin. Employment and Manufactures Association's manager of employment relations, Paul Jarvie spoke to Corin Dann.

The Christmas party season should be a time for joy and celebration — but for HR teams, it's often the exact opposite. Misconduct, blurred boundaries, alcohol, drugs, safety concerns, dignity-at-work issues, employer liability… every December, HR braces for what can become the messiest time of the year. In this episode, Dave and Mary are joined by Adrian Twomey, Employment Law Expert & Partner at Jacob & Twomey Solicitors, to unpack the real risks, legal responsibilities, and unexpected behaviours that regularly turn a festive night out into a January HR nightmare. Together, they explore what employers are actually liable for, whether pre-party reminder emails help, why managers play a pivotal role, and if Christmas parties are – controversially -past their sell-by date entirely. Guests Adrian Twomey – Employment Law Expert & Partner, Jacob & Twomey Solicitors Topics include: Employer Liability: Are Christmas parties an extension of the workplace? Real Case Law Examples – harassment, injuries & blurred boundaries Alcohol, Drugs & Lowered Inhibitions: The behaviour shift HR must prepare for Why pre-party “behave yourselves” emails may backfire Managing Complaints: What to do first thing Monday morning The role of managers in preventing party-night disasters Social Media, Privacy & Reputation Risks Should Christmas Parties Be Cancelled Altogether?

In this festive episode of JJ Meets World, JJ and Tucker dive into the unwritten rules of office Christmas parties, the art of planning unforgettable events (without becoming a party tyrant), and the real danger of losing a king-sized Snickers bar in your own house. From Mad Men, The Office, and Office Christmas Party (2016), to the genius of Sam Richardson, the team explores how pop culture shapes our expectations for holiday gatherings. You'll learn why the worst sin is hosting an office party AT the office, why drink tickets beat open bars, and how a toy poodle could (almost) steal Christmas. This episode also includes.

Lucinda welcomes Tabbin Almond, author of "Bottling Up Trouble," to discuss the impact of alcohol in the workplace.  As the holiday season approaches, they explore the cultural norms surrounding drinking, particularly in corporate settings, and the challenges faced by individuals struggling with alcohol use. Tabbin shares a personal journey to becoming alcohol-free and highlights the stigma that prevents many from seeking help. KEY TAKEAWAYS There is a pressing need to change workplace cultures that encourage excessive drinking, as many individuals feel pressured to conform to alcohol-related social norms, which can lead to serious personal and professional issues. Individuals struggling with alcohol use often feel shame and stigma, making it difficult for them to seek help. Coaching can provide a supportive environment where they can regain control and learn to live alcohol-free Younger generations, particularly Gen Z, are drinking less and are more aware of mental health issues. As they rise to senior positions, they are likely to influence workplace cultures towards healthier practices Organisations should prioritise inclusivity at events, such as Christmas parties, by providing a wide range of appealing non-alcoholic options and ensuring that alcohol does not dominate the event's focus BEST MOMENTS "There's so much shame and stigma around having a problem with alcohol that they can't ask for help. They fear that if they say they've got a problem, they will be branded forevermore." "The younger generation are much more aware of their mental health and proactive in looking after it. They understand that alcohol can never relieve depression or stress; it can only make them worse." "We need to change the culture. We're encouraged to drink by society, but if someone gets into trouble, it's only the individual's fault." "Think before automatically using alcohol to help people bond at work. Be more creative and ask, 'Isn't there something better we could do?'"

In this edition of our Inside Track podcast, we first discuss five tips for DJing Christmas parties. For DJs, it's one of the busiest times of year but also one of the most challenging. Whether you're just playing music at home or booked for the office party (or something bigger), here is how to survive and thrive behind the decks this Christmas.Next, we explore why 1990s Eurodance is suddenly cool. I mean, it was never really that cool in the first place, right? But it's certainly having a moment, and we know exactly why: it's a numbers thing.Finally, we chat about the one thing all good DJs have in common. It suddenly dawned on me the other day that I've been DJing for 40 years - played all kinds of gigs, all kinds of music, all kinds of styles, and seen countless DJs doing the same. And I think I've discovered what it is that unites us all...As ever, this was a really fun discussion, made more so by our wonderful live student audience here at Digital DJ Tips, who joined us for the recording.
