The Webshow for Headhunters
Raw. Real.
Recruiting.
The Headhunters LIVE is the no-script, no-slides webshow about recruiting, headhunting, staffing, sales, and AI. Three hosts, real guests, plenty of opinions, and what’s actually happening in our industry. New shows every Thursday at 1:00 PM EST.

About the show
No scripts. No slides. No fluff.
The Headhunters LIVE is a casual, conversational show for headhunters, recruiters, and search firm owners. Every week the three of us, plus a guest worth hearing, dig into the stuff that actually moves a desk: business development, sourcing, pricing, splits, AI tools, and the wins and faceplants nobody puts in their LinkedIn posts.
It’s banter with substance. You’ll laugh, you’ll disagree with at least one of us, and you’ll leave with something you can use on your very next call. Whether you run a firm or run a solo desk, this show is made for you.
The hosts
Three headhunters. Zero filters.
