The episode starts with a detailed look at the saga between Elon Musk and Twitter. At the time of recording, Elon had rejected an offer to join Twitter's board and was holding an almost 10% stake in the social platform. Next, a look at the Etsy seller strike over the craft marketplace's increases to its take rate. Is this a classic example of a dominant platform squeezing its producers or does Etsy need this increased revenue to spend on platform improvements? The show closes with a look at luxury fashion platform Farfetch making a $200 million investment into luxury department store owners Neiman Marcus Group.
