Patagonia - The Only Good Business Man?

from The Doomscroll Diaries · host Laura Sogar and Mae Planert

This week we discuss outdoor apparel company, Patagonia, and its founder Yvon Chouinard aka one of the world's only good businessmen. You may have seen him pop up in the news for giving away the (massive) company to a newly established non-profit dedicated to fighting climate change. Yvon may be one of the only billionaires who looked at his bank account and said "this is embarrassing" and actually gave all the money away. We discuss his past and how he came to be such an anomaly in our capitalist world.  We also cover the Nirvana naked baby lawsuit and a massive scandal rocking the world of chess (sex toys are involved...).
