Netflix vs. HBO. Nike vs. Adidas. Business is war. Sometimes the prize is your wallet, or your attention. Sometimes, it’s just the fun of beating the other guy. The outcome of these battles shapes what we buy and how we live. Business Wars gives you the unauthorized, real story of what drives these companies and their leaders, inventors, investors and executives to new heights -- or to ruin. Hosted by David Brown, former anchor of Marketplace. From Wondery, the network behind Dirty John and American History Tellers. Don’t forget to subscribe at wondery.fm/businesswars

Well folks, we've arrived at the end of the line for the first season of I Hate My Boss. The show will be back, new and improved, early next year, so don't worry — our sage advice won't be gone for too long. But first, on today's episode, Liz and Larry give out some awards, and then we check back in with Rebecca, Manny, and some of the other listeners who were featured in last week’s best-of episode. And Liz and Larry go over the things that matter most to us in the workplace, and the signs that you've arrived at a great job. Because that's what we've wanted from the start: for you to be happy and fulfilled at work, and hopefully, we've helped you accomplish that.

S1E32: The Season Finale

Watson and his department received a new boss about five months ago, but their new boss hasn't put any effort into learning what his team's working on, or even what their workflow's like. And since this has been going on for months, word is starting to spread within the company, and it's making Watson's entire department look bad. So how far should one go to cover for their ineffective boss, particularly when it's your reputation on the line? Then, Emilio's boss of two years has become flaky and inattentive over the past couple months, and our sages think there's more than meets the eye with this case.New to I Hate My Boss?

After Hours 27: When your boss ain't cuttin' the mustard

We've almost arrived at the end of the first season of I Hate My Boss, and we couldn't resist taking a look back at some of the most memorable stories and hate-able bosses that we've discussed over the past few months; that's right, it's time for a clip show! Meghan's boss has set her up to fail, while Rebecca's boss has allowed his micromanaging wife to sour a perfectly good working relationship. Then, Jane's been dealing with a weirdly overprotective boss, while the honesty box in Manny's office was compromised by a scheming manager. And, of course, there's some Bad Bathroom Behavior going around in one office out there.New to I Hate My Boss?

S1E31: I hate my boss, but I I love this clip show!

About three months back, Raquel's company hired two new employees, and somewhere along the way she became the go-to person for any and all of their questions. But now a project on Raquel's team is over budget and behind schedule, and the new crew's inability to figure things out on their own has become a real problem. So how should she handle the situation when she talks to her boss? Then, Liz and Larry help a listener whose self-esteem issues at the office have turned into a vicious cycle.New to I Hate My Boss?

After Hours 26: Too many questions, too little confidence

Everyone's had a coworker like this: they're nice enough, but they do one thing that is just so annoying, like eating carrots at maximum crunch volume every day of the week, or kicking off their shoes to unveil their smelly feet. However, this episode isn't about those annoying coworkers; instead, we're talking about the truly toxic people that can make work a living hell, and how you can best deal with toxicity in the workplace. First off, Liz and Larry share their experiences dealing with — or, as is often the case, getting away from — overly-aggressive clients and employees. Then we help some listeners! Ryan's boss wields his timecard like a weapon in the office, and his martyrdom complex is wearing thin, while Chuck's coworker steals his ideas while acting like his only friend in the office. And Miranda's dealing with a promotion that wasn't everything her CEO promised.New to I Hate My Boss?

S1E30: Bully bosses, emotional vampires, and toxic coworkers

There are few universal truths in the world: death, taxes, and the fact that freelancing can be really, really hard. It feels great when everything's working in your favor, but there are plenty of pitfalls that even experienced freelancers can fall into. So on today's episode, Liz and Larry help two listeners who want to better navigate the (sometimes) wonderful world of freelancing. First up is a listener who's feeling stuck after seven years with their current employer, and while they want to start their own consulting firm, they've never been their own boss before. Then, our sages offer their advice to Donovan, who's been freelancing for a year but still hasn't mastered the time-management and work-life balance skills involved.New to I Hate My Boss?

After hours 25: A crash course in freelancing

How many unread emails are currently sitting in your inbox? What about those voicemails waiting on your office phone, or those DMs on Slack, Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook...you get the point. There are so many ways to communicate with people these days, and when you merge communication technology with business, things can go a little haywire. On today's show, Liz and Larry talk about email horror stories and life before computers at work. Then Molly Fischer, Senior Editor at New York Magazine's The Cut, joins us to talk about how Slack and instant messaging is changing the contemporary office — and not entirely for the better. And we help some listeners, too! Celia's company wants her to promote their business on her LinkedIn on a weekly basis, while Raven's boss can't send a clear email to save his life. And a listener's still anxious about some angry Slack messages that showed up during a company presentation.New to I Hate My Boss?

S1E29: Call me, beep me, if you want to reach me...at my office line

Rey is dealing with one of the many double standards that exist between men and women in the office: the workplace wardrobe. In an otherwise great performance review, her boss said that she dressed like an airhead, and now that she's applying to a new job, she doesn't want to worsen her chances with a wardrobe faux pas. But does that mean the only correct choice is a stuffy black business suit? Then, another listener's new company is obsessed with office bonding, to the point of scheduling mandated pillow fights and "root beer float" time...outside of company hours.New to I Hate My Boss?
