The Uber IPO
from Acquired · host Ben Gilbert and David Rosenthal
Welcome to the big one. On the day of its IPO, we tell the story of Uber. It’s a story whose roots stretch back 130 years, but whose impact reverberates perhaps more powerfully on our current world than any other. A story that, in all of its greatness and in all of its ugliness, may just be the story of our time.Sponsors:Sentry: https://bit.ly/acquiredsentryWorkOS: https://bit.ly/workos25Anthropic: https://bit.ly/acquiredclaude25Statsig: https://bit.ly/acquiredstatsig26More Acquired!Get email updates with hints on next episode and follow-ups from recent episodesJoin the SlackSubscribe to ACQ2Merch Store!© Copyright 2015-2026 ACQ, LLCLinks:Austin Geidt’s incredible journey: https://youtu.be/-NjaqDMYNVsTravis’s self-introduction as “the Wolf from Pulp Fiction”: https://youtu.be/VMvdvP02f-YTravis interview on TWiST: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=550X5OZVk7Y
