About this episode
Bob Iger is back! Disney’s board has decided, shortly after renewing CEO Bob Chapek’s contract, that his predecessor Bob Iger is better suited to lead the company than his handpicked replacement. So Bob (the first) is back, and it’s awkward for everyone. New York Times columnist and “Disney War” author James Stewart teams up with leadership expert Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, from Yale’s School of Management, to discuss the succession mess at the House of Mouse, and what investors have ahead of them. Plus, the FTX mess continues in the Bahamas. CNBC’s Kate Rooney reports on the now shuttered FTX HQ in Nassau, and all the fallout for crypto investors and the man that triggered it all, Sam Bankman-Fried.
