Sri helps you get the most out of your people, applying Friedrich Hayek's concept of "local knowledge" to companies with the help of "that 'copacetic' song." The movie 'American Psycho' is discussed in the same breath as an articulation of why corporate promotions are a confidence game. Coincidence? Perhaps not. ***Select songs and music videos by Local H: "Bound for the Floor" (“that ‘copacetic’ song”): Youtube"Eddie Vedder" ("as good as dead"): Spotify, YoutubeCover of David Bowie's “Heroes” (Spotify)Cover of Lorde's "Team": Spotify, Youtube  High-Fiving MF (EXPLICIT) -- Not mentioned in the episode but still worth a listen: SpotifyHayek: The Use of Knowledge in Society  David Henderson’s article on Hayek’s seminal article in EconLib Ronald Coase: “Nature of the Firm”: Wikipedia 💬 Have a question?

Humans have a visceral need to mold their environment, even if it means mindlessly mowing the lawn. Sri introduces the concept of Hobbit problems and wages an internal battle over strongly worded letters to the gym. Radiohead’s “Little By Little” serves as a warning to us all. Plus, Sri rants about fruit and Ross from Friends. ***So… who actually *is* Nestor Carbonell? Like Jeff Fahey, he played an interesting character on Lost.

Meanwhile, a Wall Street saleswoman talks about ripping people's eyeballs out. Intro music by Paul Sridhar (Spotify).💬 Have a question? Shoot us a text! 📌 FEELING STUCK?
