A podcast about the hiring world—starting with the stories we’ll never forget.

The hiring world is full of high stakes, big decisions, and even bigger learning curves. At Bchex, we’ve seen firsthand how one hire can shape a team—for better or worse.

That’s why we created The Bad Hire, a podcast hosted by Ken Monroe that explores hiring from every angle.

 

Yes, we talk about the missteps—the bad hires, the near-misses, the “what were we thinking?” moments. But those stories are just the icebreaker. The heart of this show is about something bigger: how people build teams, shape culture, and learn to hire better.

 

Every episode begins with a story (because let’s be honest, everyone has one), and then expands into honest conversations about hiring systems, leadership journeys, company growth, and what it really takes to build teams that thrive.

Whether you're a founder, a recruiter, a people leader, or just someone who’s been in the hiring trenches, The Bad Hire offers insights, laughs, and real talk about how hiring works—and sometimes doesn’t—in today’s world.
