About this episode
Billionaire businessman and investor Mark Cuban is known for making — or crushing — entrepreneurs' dreams on the TV show Shark Tank. But in reality, he's a big softie. Here, he talks about getting his start selling trash bags as a kid, opening a bar before he was even 21, and betting on the Internet early. Here are his seven songs, including his life’s “theme” and a song that brings him to tears.
Play That Funky Music – Wild Cherry
Life’s Been Good – Joe Walsh
September – Earth, Wind & Fire
Fame – DMX
Rapper's Delight – The Sugarhill Gang
Eminence Front – The Who
