Hello and welcome to the super pumped edition of Slate Money, your guide to the business and finance

news of the week. I'm Felix Hammond of Axios.

I am here with Emily Peck of the Huffington Post.

Hello.

I am here with our other co-host, Anna Shamansky, who amazingly has a affiliation now.

Yes, I have shifted.

I'm no longer working at the mysterious company. I have shifted now officially to financial journalism.

Why would anyone voluntarily become a journalist? It's a very good question. Yeah, most people don't finish their CFA and then they'd be like, I'm going to go into journalism.

But welcome, welcome to the tribe. So, yes, I'm going to be working with Reuters breaking views. All right. You're alma mater. So now we have four journalists around the table because we also have Mr. Mike Isaac of the New York Times. Hello, hello. Welcome. You are here because you are on book tour. You've written an amazing new book called.

This is called Super Pumped, the Battle for Uber.

It's great. It's in all good bookstores. It's a fun read. And so, yeah, we're going to talk to Mike about his book and about Uber and about Travis Kalanick and then about the new Travis Kalanick, who's Adam Newman of WeWork and about what on Earth is

going on with all of the WeWork crazy. We are going to be talking about the power that workers

are beginning to show over companies like GM and maybe even Uber, thanks to Californian legislation.

It's a fun conversation.

You should stick around for it.

We're even going to talk about repo in Slate Plus because, you know, we have to.

All that coming up in Slate Money.

So, Mike, congratulations on the Berg.

Thank you.

How's it doing?

I think it's doing all right.

We hit the best seller list, which was nice, the New York Times best seller list.
