Episode Description
The weird truth about modern life is that a robot might reject your resume, your phone might read you a transcript like closed captions, and a stranger in a restaurant might force you to hear their videos at full volume. We lean into all of it while keeping the Men of Leisure spirit intact and yes, there’s a big announcement tucked inside.
We start with a real update from the road, or at least from the studio: Adam is back upstairs with a new setup, better sound, and a space built for recording. Then we roll into Listener Spotlight with a town that literally had to move, plus a welcome to new listeners joining from Jordan. If you love travel trivia, small-town history, and the kind of details you only notice when you slow down, this stretch is for you.
From there, we get practical. Michael shares where things stand on the job search and why he’s rebuilding his resume and LinkedIn around ATS software and AI resume screening. We talk about learning the rules, adjusting strategy, and trying to “game the system” just enough to get a real human to see your application. Then we bring it home with show upgrades: fan mail now includes a 60-second voicemail option, we can reply to messages, chapters are getting better tools, transcripts are improving, and Road Adventures of Cycling Men of Leisure has been selected for Apple Video Podcasts.
We close with rants that hit close to home: headphone etiquette in public, endless hold times, and phone trees that swear the options changed when they didn’t. Subscribe, share the show with a riding buddy, and leave us a message then tell us what topic you want us to tackle next.
