Somehow we managed to talk about this book for an entire hour without using the word 'girlboss.'

A great ep as always! 1 of the 2 books that feel like "passed around the office & comes up at every meeting that people won't stop talking about" (ironically, the other is Quiet, which felt like it kicked off a fad of everybody saying they're introverts like it's the biggest identity piece for them)

Or that from 2016 to 2019, Sandberg dated noted scumbag Bobby Kotick, and according to the Wall Street Journal, helped him try to kill a Daily Mail story about an ex-girlfriend who filed a restraining order against him! www.wsj.com/articles/san...

Not quite Klein / Yggy October 2020 level of galaxy-brain misogyny, but also not very far from it. Hearing two dudes who have never held a regular-type job in decades hold forth on feminism in the workplace was, for me, that point where the idea of a thing meets disappointing reality.

The volume and ferocity with which I was yelling at my computer while listening to this podcast might have been a tad unhealthy. Feel free to HMU for the real real on this stuff, guys. Because I've seen some shit.

The word "girlboss" doesn't appear in "Lean In" and to equate it with the book denigrates its impact on so many women. You lost me as a Patreon subscriber over this episode.

The only juicy scuttlebutt I ever gleaned from living in the Bay Area was once in a Palo Alto restaurant the woman next to me told her dining companion that the way Sheryl Sandberg was able to โ€œhave it allโ€ was that she had moved her sister to the Bay Area to watch her kids for her

I started listening and *swoon* you dunked on Zuck in the first 30s. I may have a new favorite podcast! Is this episode also on YouTube for those of us who don't play well with Apple? I found other episodes, but couldn't find this one.

I worked for SurveyMonkey when her then-husband Dave Goldberg was CEO, before he passed. When it came out, our office was buried in copies of Lean-In. It fit in well with most of the other reading material the execs would get all excited about that you could do (and have done) episodes on.

Does this episode imply that @michaelhobbes.bsky.social hasnโ€™t seen Barbie, because he turned to Oceanโ€™s 11 as an analogy for the point the speech from Barbie made?
