Summary
Who’s to blame for the Downfall of WeWork?
This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) welcomes tech journalist and podcast host Molly Wood to discuss the troublesome history of the WeWork empire. And lucky Alarmy(!), having reported extensively about WeWork on Marketplace, Molly is THE guest (and basically expert) for the job! Did WeWork have a vibes problem? Perhaps too many Vibes? Could Founder Worship be to blame? Maybe a Lack of Oversight had something to do with it. Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early join the conversation. Tune in and find out what #bananapants is all about!
