The world is drowning in Mediocrity, we’re bringing the lifeboat.
There are those who embrace mediocrity, and while they may be great human beings, they just aren’t our tribe. For those who share our values and want better, we invite you to join us at www.mediocrates.wtf.
On the mediocre podcast, we want to poke fun at the mediocrity in the world, because sometimes laughing is the only way to keep from screaming. More importantly, we talk with people who want to do — and be — great, having them share what excellence means to them, and how they work toward it.

Nina Sunday’s journey: survived bad management, became less-than-ideal manager, had the courage to question her own approach, became student of leadership, became a guide. One of the “mediocratisms” that grinds her gears is “That’s what I pay them for”, which assumes the leader’s superiority in all things. Let’s discuss.

The founders Barefoot wines, heard a lot of excuses as they were building off the world’s largest wine brand. The one they choose to talk about with me is “That’s not my fault. That was all on sales”. Micheal and Bonnie teach entrepreneurs worldwide, and at major business schools about their leadership philosophy: the two-division company (sales, and sales support). This philosophy makes sales everyone’s job, and, well…it seemed to work for Barefoot wines. Michael and Bonnie are excellence junkies on the mediocrates.wtf platform, and we invite you to get to know them better.

Cristina and I loved this article, and wanted to discuss our takes on it. Enjoy!

We’ve all made an impulse purchase; some of us just spend more on them than others. Was Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter a mediocre impulse buy, a move in his 3D chess game, or something else? Cristina and I had some thoughts about some very mediocre aspects of the acquisition. After listening to the conversation again, I reminded myself that value is based upon the outcomes one achieves when they make a purchase, and wondered what outcomes Mr. Musk envisions.
