About this episode

Alexis Ohanian, 766 founder and internet venture capitalist, discusses the rebrand of X Corp. (formerly known as Twitter) as it makes a big push to win back advertisers. The Reddit cofounder examines the new social media landscape, the power of online communities, the impact of A.I., and more. And pop up shops are popping up everywhere. Susan Sandler, founder and president of PopUpSummer! discusses the business of short term immersive shopping, the economics behind it, and how brands like Barbie are capitalizing on the concept. Plus, autonomous driving scored a big win, FTX founder Sam Bankman Fried is back in court, and after 101 days of a strike, the Writers Guild and Hollywood leaders are returning to the negotiating table.
