The Cult of We

Eliot Brown of the Wall Street Journal joins Felix Salmon, Emily Peck, and Stacy-Marie Ishmael to talk about his book The Cult of We about the wild rise of WeWork under its eccentric founder Adam Neumann, attempting to answer their many questions such as, “Why?”. They talk blitzscaling, founder control, and why we keep giving white men with good hair so much money.  In the Plus segment: Unpublished tidbits from Eliot’s book.  Email: slatemoney@slate.com Podcast production by Jessamine Molli.
