Hello and welcome to the next Cove Julius episode of Sleep Money Succession.

We are back.

People succession is back, succession season 3 is coming next week on HBO and of course

I, Felix Salmon of Axiose, will be watching every episode as will be Emily Peck of

Fundraise.

Hello, I'm so excited, I can't wait.

We are going to be watching every episode, we're going to be talking about it right here

on Sleep Money and to set the scene, we have the most insightful succession observer that

I think probably exists outside the walls of the succession writing room itself, Rebecca

Meade from the New Yorker, welcome.

Thank you, delighted to be here.

You wrote a fantastic piece about Jesse Armstrong and calling him the real CEO of succession.

He runs this show, he runs a really tight ship, controls more or less everything about

the show.

This is normal in television, by the way, this is your own, does this on shows, but you

had some amazing insights, so we're going to talk to you about season one, season two,

and although none of us have actually seen any of the episodes, season three of the best

show on TV, all coming up on Sleep Money Succession.

Rebecca, there has been, I believe the technical term is a fuck ton written about succession

in every single publication that I subscribe to, but you win the prize for the best

succession article, it's amazing in the New Yorker.

So we needed to have you on, to kick off this season of Sleep Money Succession.
