Episode notes
Schleifer and Galloway
- Teddy Schleifer attempted to connect with Scott Galloway by praising him.
- Galloway, however, only wanted to discuss other Puck employees.
Musk's Trumpian Behavior
- Elon Musk's behavior, including tweeting about a potential fight and then citing a neck injury, is similar to Donald Trump's.
- This behavior is considered pathetic and potentially harmful to Mark Zuckerberg's reputation.
Zuckerberg's Transformation
- Mark Zuckerberg's willingness to engage in public spectacle contrasts with his previous reserved demeanor. This change might be a reaction to Elon Musk or a broader shift in tech leaders' behavior post-Trump.
