"The Disgruntled PM Podcast helps project managers transform daily frustrations into leadership opportunities by sharing clear strategies, no-nonsense advice, and a relatable dose of humor from experienced guests." Are you tired of endless meetings, scope creep, and stakeholders with "good idea fairy" syndrome? You're in the right place. Welcome to The Disgruntled PM, a therapy session for the modern project manager. We're the podcast that says what every PM is thinking. I skip the corporate jargon and dry theory to bring you honest, humorous, and hard-hitting conversations from the trenches of project management. I feature guests who have actually been there—from PMP coaches who failed the exam multiple times to PMs who have led groundbreaking (and chaotic) AI and tech projects. Each week, I sit down with seasoned project leaders, industry authors, PMP coaches, and innovative thinkers to have candid conversations you won't find anywhere else. I tackle the tough topics, including: • The critical soft skills and leadership tactics not found in the PMBOK. • Strategies for managing first-of-their-kind projects and emerging technology. • Real-world advice on stakeholder management, risk, and corporate communication • Actionable career advice and certification strategies If you're looking for real-world solutions and a community that understands the struggle, you've found it. I believe the best project managers are forged in the fire of frustration. Let's get disgruntled, and let's get better, together.

  • Coaching High Achievers: Why Founders Need Coaches

    Coaching High Achievers: Why Founders Need Coaches
    Jul 13 2026

    The corporate world loves to worship at the altar of the "Lone wolf" executive, but the reality of leadership is usually a lot more nuanced. In this episode, executive coach Mike Howerton tears down the delusion that your job title makes you a superhero. We dissect the difference between a consultant versus a coach. The "Delegation tax" that turns founders into the ultimate bottlenecks and the harsh truth about why your core values could actually be destroying your team’s culture are also covered. This is a reality check for anyone addicted to controlling every detail of their projects.

  • Defending The Bottom Line: The True ROI Of Project Leaders

    Defending The Bottom Line: The True ROI Of Project Leaders
    Jul 6 2026

    In this episode, Guest Justin J. MacBale strips away the corporate theater of enterprise project management to expose what actually drives business value. Justin breaks down the systemic dysfunctions of M&A integrations, the fatal flaw of treating PMs like glorified administrators, and why forcing arbitrary personal expectations onto a burned-out team is a guaranteed career killer. We skip the toxic positivity and dissect the messy reality of mitigating disaster, reading the room, and forcing terrified decision-makers to actually make a choice before a project bleeds out.

  • More Than Admin: HR Is Your Secret Weapon

    More Than Admin: HR Is Your Secret Weapon
    Jun 29 2026

    Most project professionals treat HR like the corporate principal's office, that we place we all try to avoid until someone makes a bad joke or a hire falls through. In reality, abdicating your talent management to a siloed department is the fastest way to doom your deliverables. Former Sazerac CHRO Joe Bongiovi drops in to explain why positional authority is a complete joke if you lack the influence to back it up. We tear down the "Golden Rule" in favor of the "Platinum Rule," expose the delusion of Ivy League recruiting, and break down why treating people like static puzzle pieces destroys project agility. If you think shouting "I'm in charge" actually makes you the leader, prepare for a harsh reality check
