FULL INTERVIEW: GameStop’s Ryan Cohen on Why He’s Buying eBay

from TBPN · host John Coogan & Jordi Hays

This is our full conversation with Ryan Cohen, recorded live on TBPN.We discuss his $125/share bid to acquire eBay through a half cash, half stock deal and why he believes combining it with GameStop could unlock massive value, how he plans to cut billions in costs, operate with an owner mindset, and use GameStop’s physical store footprint to authenticate collectibles and drive growth, and why he sees eBay as a durable but under-optimized platform that can be rebuilt through live commerce, creator partnerships, and a faster, more focused operating model.Sign up for TBPN’s daily newsletter at TBPN.comFollow TBPN:https://TBPN.comhttps://x.com/tbpnhttps://open.spotify.com/show/2L6WMqY3GUPCGBD0dX6p00?si=674252d53acf4231https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/technology-brothers/id1772360235https://www.youtube.com/@TBPNLive
