Hello and welcome to the Fountainhead episode of Slate Money Goes To The Movies.

I'm Felix Salmon of Axios, I'm here with Emily Peck.

Hello.

And oh my God do we have a doozy view this week.

We have Michael Beirut, Michael welcome, who are you?

Hello, my name is Michael Beirut.

I'm a graphic designer, a partner in the firm Pentagram and a recovering iron ran ban.

Iron ran being one of the great bugaboos of 20th century America.

She has huge influence in the Republican Party to this day and she wrote this book called

the Fountainhead that she then turned into a script which she insisted on being filmed

without changing a single word.

This script actually got made into a surprisingly watchable movie starring Gary Cooper as the

Fountainhead from 1948, 1949, something like that, that's all coming up on a very fun

episode.

I have to say, Slate Money Goes To The Movies.

All right, I'm Jack Gruelish.

I think you can listen to music from relaxing, to celebrating, to getting yourself prepared.

I like all sorts, honestly I like hip-hop, R&B, and then house music as well, so yeah there's

no guilt with pleasure as R&D.

Jack wears the Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra headphones, enjoying his favourite music with more immersive

sounds than ever before.

Wow, the music's just everything isn't it?
