ICYMI: Who Is Afraid of Woke Capitalism?
Mihir, Felix and NYU’s Dolly Chugh discuss the pressure on business leaders to conform to the demands of woke capitalism. Should you give in? Push back? What are the risks and rewards? Also: Feeling low lately? Chances are you are just getting older. We speculate why most people go through some sort of midlife crisis and talk about ways to better cope with life’s seemingly inevitable ups and downs. (Originally aired Nov. 2, 2022)

Customer Reviews
Exquisite
They are that rare combination of intelligent, articulate, and hilarious. I learned something new every time I tune in, which is every week.
Grade: Fail
I loved this show for so long, loved the intelligence, perspective, learned so much, couldn’t wait for the next episode, but just like Harvard Institution failed to protect the right of their Jewish students so have Felix and Mihir failed to accurately reflect what is happening on its campus right now. It would have been better for them to hold their opinions then to misrepresent and offer no real challenge to their students to be open minded and educated them on the issues. I have lost all my respect for them. FAIL
Fantastic
I could listen to this group talk all day. So insightful, educational, funny and down to earth. Thank you for making a great podcast I can listen to while working in my studio.
