Career Advice is Bullsh*t | Business is Bullsh*t Ep. 23
from Business is Bullshit · host Jon Tsourakis, James Hornick and Jared Gibson
Everyone's been told the same tired career advice: "Follow your passion." "Learn to code." "Get a degree and you'll be set." Yeah… about that. In this episode, James Hornick, Jon Tsourakis, and Jared Gibson dismantle the entire playbook of "safe" career moves — from the myth of job security to why AI, offshoring, and corporate downsizing have made traditional advice completely useless. They dig into: Why "follow your passion" is a rich kid's game. How "learn to code" turned into the new unemployment trap. The STEM vs. liberal arts flip no one saw coming. Why the real safety net today is adaptability, soft skills, and your personal brand. The $2,000 "upskill or die" scam that blames workers for corporate greed. If you've ever wondered why doing everything right still feels like you're falling behind, this episode explains it — and why the smartest move now is rewriting the rules entirely.
