From all walks of life

The Outliers Inn is a place where people from all businesses and roles within business can examine goings-ons from different  and hopefully humorous perspectives.  It’s a place where we can be a lot less serious about ourselves, what we do, what our businesses do, and the manner in which they do it.

Whether you are in finance, sales, logistics, production. operations, human resources. facilities management. information technology – whatever your role might be – business people are always taking themselves too seriously – or are taken too seriously by others. All that ends here.

Posted on September 22, 2020

Recorded: August 3, 2020 About the podcast Topic: One of our regular guests, Don Burshnick, stands-in for Antlerboy and takes his place behind the bar – somewhere at which he is all too familiar and steps right into the roll.

Episode – 53; Lady’s Night

Posted on August 18, 2020

Recorded: July 14, 2020 About the podcast Topic: Okay, the notion was noble, but the presentation might have been better.  If this was an episode of Master Chef with Antlerboy and JP being the wanna-be cooks, we would certainly have presented a repulsive-looking dish, but it tasted darn good. So here’s the story;  Antlerboy and JP had noticed that all of the guests at The…

JP is happy for Antlerboy, but wonders; just how big is…

Come give a listen as we mash it up (see what I did there?). The episode starts with Antlerboy not being his usual joyful self, some would say “hacked-off”, “fed up”, or just “down…
