A lot of times the big economic forces we hear about on the news
show up in our lives in small ways.
Three or four days a week, I would buy two cups of banana pudding.
But the price has gone up, so now I only buy one.
The demand curve in action.
And that's just one of the things we'll be covering on Everybody's Business from Bloomberg Businessweek.

And I'm Stacey Vanek-Smith.
Every Friday, we will be diving into
the biggest stories in business,
taking a look at what's going on,
why it matters,
and how it shows up in our everyday lives.
But guests like Businessweek editor Brad Stone,
sports reporter Randall Williams,
and consumer spending expert Amanda Mull
will take you inside the boardrooms,
the backrooms,
even the signal chats
that make our economy tick.
Hey, I want to learn about VeChain.

I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on good company,
the podcast where I sit down
with the boldest innovators shaping what's next. In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali
Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's anything but ordinary. We dive into the competitive
world of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream gold, connecting audiences
with stories that truly make them feel seen.
What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. It's this idea that there are so many stories out
there, and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content,
the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen.
Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide
and hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the
most crowded of markets.
