"I think that's a great discussion to have. Like, hey, we're going to sacrifice our Christmas so people can get presents under their trees," he says. "And then you know what? Everybody's going to take an extra long July 4th Memorial Day at this company because like Amazon workers who give up their Christmas." He also talks about the woman from the wing and how she got barbecue too.

Today, Acquired’s David Rosenthal joins us. We discuss their recent Climate Pledge Arena Show (1:37), the new fundraising environment, and what the best founders and VC firms are doing (21:29), and we dig into the New York Times' latest hit piece on Glossier CEO Emily Weiss (37:40). We wrap with an optimistic look at what Australian billionaire and Atlassian CEO Mike Cannon-Brookes is doing to take on Australia's biggest polluter (1:00:59).
