  • Since when did ghosting become a thing?

    Ben and Ryan discuss a new phenomenon in the business world - tardiness. What’s even more shocking is not only are people late, they do not let you know they are going to be late. The worst of all cases is when you get ghosted.

  • The future of work from home
    I love working from home. I’ve been working from home on and off since 2017. I’m not saying I’d never go back to the office, but it’s not my first option.

    I brought on Nicholas A. Bloom who is the Professor of Economics at Stanford to chat about that issue and more. Hope you enjoy!
