So you knew about him from the tech and finance space.
Do you know much more about his bio?
Not really.
I know that he, like, is pretty outspoken about...
For example, things like public education.
Like, he'll often talk about how his mom was a single mother and, like, he was not excellent in school, but because of the University of California education system and, like, the fact that he was able to go there and, like, it wasn't exorbitantly expensive, that that, like, changed his life.
And, like, if it had not been for affordable public education, he wouldn't be a deca-cent-a-millionaire or whatever the fuck he is now.
So...
From the tech and education or like tech and finance space, I think he's a pretty, I don't want to say banal figure, but like he is like, I would say definitely to the right of me, but generally speaking, like one of the better finance and investing voices out there.
Yeah, so I did a little bit of research into Scott Galloway's bio after I read his book, and I agree with you.
I think something that I find really interesting about him, I mean, a few things I find really interesting about him, but one thing is that he is largely very progressive.
Like, a lot of the conclusions that he will come to in podcast interviews and, you know, in op-eds are ones that we come to in this podcast all the time.
He has a very similar systemic lens on the world as we do, which is why I find his relationship to the masculinity crisis so baffling to me because it seems like he really throws a lot of his own intellectual tools out the window when he starts talking about this.
But I'll prove that to you.
I'll prove that to you in this conversation today.
So yeah, so he is a podcast host and entrepreneur who has had a number of career phases.
He first worked at Morgan Stanley for about four years after college, and then he founded a brand and marketing consultancy firm.
Then he founded this gift monogramming company called 911 Gifts that would eventually go belly up and declare bankruptcy.
Probably not a great name after 9-11.
Oh! Yeah.
Never forget E.
So
yeah.
You're ensuring your mission accomplished t-shirt.
Yeah, exactly.
