Episode description
Fasten your tech-hipster bum bags—Chad, Lieven, and Emi globe-trot through HR mayhem, startup soap operas, and political facepalms.
🦄 Parloa’s riding high while Builder.ai’s IPO dreams crash-land like dad jokes at a startup open mic.
🚁 Ukrainian drone startups schooling old-guard giants in DIY warfare.
🇪🇺 Tesla’s getting ghosted harder than your last online date.
🥂 Emi toasts bottomless brunches; Lieven mourns EV glory days. Harmony achieved.
🦘 RecruitRoo bounces across Europe like a kangaroo on espresso.
🥐 And yes—Americans swapping MAGA hats for croissants, universal healthcare, and slightly saner politics.
Plus: Red wine splashes, tipping etiquette atrocities, and a Putin punchline that'll make you think (and chuckle).
Chaos never sounded so charming—hit play.
It’s The Chad & Cheese Podcast: Global Edition.
