Under the eccentric management of CEO Adam Neumann, the baffling real estate/tech company WeWork became a multibillion-dollar corporate giant without ever turning a profit. The new Hulu documentary WEWORK, OR: THE THE MAKING AND BREAKING OF A $47 BILLION UNICORN (2021) explores how it all came crashing down... but we're joined by  startup veteran turned leftist writer Wendy Liu (author of Abolish Silicon Valley: How to Liberate Technology from Capitalism) to discuss how its prescription falls short.

I’m sure you’ll find a way to work it in elsewhere

This was amazing. I went to film school and had a similar belief in the power of cinema and entertainment to positively change the world. After ten years of peeking behind the curtain of that industry I came away feeling pretty sick and disillusioned about our society (I’m in the U.S. fyi) at large. Still struggling to regain balance. Really felt seen by Wendy and empowered by this episode. Thanks!
