Über diesen Titel

So Much Bullsh!t Leadership Podcast cuts through the myths, platitudes, and motivational nonsense to expose what bad leadership actually looks like—in history, in power, and in real life.

Each episode tells the true stories of failed leaders, disastrous decisions, and catastrophic judgment calls that were justified at the time with confidence, credentials, and—yes—bullsh!t. These are moments when leaders sounded smart, looked strong, and spoke in grand language… while quietly steering everything off a cliff.

From empires to corporations, revolutions to boardrooms, this podcast examines toxic leadership, ego-driven decision-making, mismanagement, groupthink, and the psychology of power. It’s about how bad ideas survive, how bad leaders stay in charge, and why obvious mistakes are often celebrated until it’s too late.

This is not a leadership podcast about best practices or inspirational quotes. It’s about bad leadership, false confidence, performative authority, and the stories we tell to justify terrible outcomes.

If you’re tired of leadership clichés, fascinated by historical failures, and curious why smart people keep falling for the same nonsense—this podcast is for you.

So Much Bullsh!t Leadership Podcast Because the problem usually isn’t a lack of leadership. It’s too much of the wrong kind.
