In this episode of The Big List, the hosts begin with a lively discussion on the excesses of bakery culture, from over-the-top croissants in Boston to standout pastry experiences in Seoul. But the heart of the episode is Mihir's compelling list of six "hardheaded financial questions" everyone should ask before joining a new company. From understanding who owns the company to decoding its financing model and performance metrics, the conversation dives deep into how these factors shape culture and career trajectories. The episode ends with thoughtful reflections on male friendships, digital nutrition paranoia, and a minimalist electric truck called Slate that just might be the future.
