Okay, we've got an amazing interview for you today, not borings.

Packing McCormick is on the program.

We cover his time at Breether, competing with WeWork, at the peak of Adam Newman's craziness.

And we talk a little bit about how he borrowed a little bit from my playbook and turned it

into his own playbook by combining a newsletter, a venture fund, and doing really interesting

adveratorials in it.

It's a pretty crazy model, and I was actually taking some notes, but first I want to cover

two news stories, both of them very interesting.

A unicorn SaaS startup called Headspin has been accused of a massive fraud by the SEC

and DOJ, defrauding investors allegedly out of 80 million dollars.

I'm going to break it all down.

There's a lot of startup lessons here around diligence for investors and had to not bend

the truth and get yourself in trouble as an entrepreneur.

And then the second news story we're going to get to is a super innovative real estate

startup that's offering fractional ownership in second homes, aka vacation homes, and it's

causing an outrage in one country, which means it's probably going to be a tremendously

successful startup.

Stick with us.
