Episode notes

The key words here are maximizing the present value of future cash flows, which necessitates building a brand around your stock. Amazon sort of got thrown in with all these other dot com companies when you sort of read that Barron's article, Amazon dot bomb. Michael Mobison has had more than a spidey sense that he would have strong opinions about Amazon at this time. Our episode with Michael is what like the seventh most listened to acquired episode of all time.

Amazon. No company has impacted the internet — and all of modern life — more than this one. We’ve waited seven years to do this episode, and are so, so excited to finally dive into every nook and cranny of this legendary company. And of course because we’re Acquired and this is Amazon, we couldn’t contain it all to just one episode… even a 4+ hour one! So today we focus on Amazon.com the retail business, and we’ll have another full episode on AWS coming soon. And because all great series are trilogies, to fully understand Amazon we highly recommend starting first with our previous episode on Walmart, which truly is the giant’s shoulder that Jeff Bezos stood upon. Let’s go!!
