Nadia and Rob sort through the big moments from this year's Grammy Awards before circling back to Zoom's DEI layoffs and the results of a study on remote work. Then, they talk about the US Census' backtracking on a proposed change to identifying disability, and companies' efforts to root out child labor in their supply chains. Finally, Rob rants about age bias and Nadia highlights the work of a special music educator.
