This week, the Drs discuss [ridiculous] reactions to the NFL’s announcement that Bad Bunny will be performing at its 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Show and recap a few cases recently argued in front of SCOTUS. The cases at issue could have profound effects for LGBTQIA minors and the voting rights of racial minority groups in the U.S.
Word of the Week [02:25] Anocracy: The inbetween space governments occupy as they transition from democracy to authoritarianism or autocracy. Sometimes called semi-democracy, it is generally not a good sign we are describing the U.S.A. this way.
Phase 1 [06:37] Bad Bunny: The NFL announced that Bad Bunny would be the Superbowl Halftime Show performed next year. Despite Bad Bunny’s global fame and his U.S. citizenship, many influencers and pundits on the right took umbrage to the NFL’s choice. Apparently, a significant number of these commentators did not know that Puerto Rico is part of the U.S.
Phase 2 [24:00] LGBTQIA rights are for Suckers: The Supreme Court of the United States recently heard arguments in two cases that will cause profound harm to marginalized communities in the U.S. if they go the way the hosts fear. The Court seems poised to invalidate state laws banning conversion therapy for minors and to enact the death blow to the Voting Rights Act as it turns 60 years old this year.

In this episode, Dr. Lisa and Dr. Shaunna unpack two big stories shaping business and society. First, we look at Harvard Business School research on why leading companies are endorsing purpose as a strategic driver of performance and profit, yet they aren't employing it. Then we look at the Supreme Court's 6 -3 decision that lifts restrictions on roving ICE patrols in Los Angeles, allowing factors like race, accent, and language to inform stops, sparking yet another debate over constitutional rights.
Word of the Week [2:25]: Xenophobia: Fear of people seen as foreign or "strange" can be systematized.
Phase 1 [7:48]: The Business Case for Purpose: A global report of 474 executives says that 90% recognize the importance of a clear purpose, but only 46% say purpose informs their strategic and operational decisions. Why the gap?
Phase 2 [25:48]: ICE Heats Up Profiling: Noem v. Vasquez Perdomo, a case on the shadow docket, lifted a temporary restraining order barring ICE agents from making roving patrol stops based solely on apparent race or ethnicity, speaking Spanish or accented English, presence at day-labor pick up sites, and the type of work performed. The court’s conservative majority approved racial profiling, providing no reasoning save Kavanaugh’s ‘detached from reality’ concurrence.
