BONUS #1 🔥 The Inventor of Virality: Jonah Peretti, Buzzfeed Founder & CEO

In our first TBOY interview, we chat with the Founder and CEO of Buzzfeed, Jonah Peretti. Buzzfeed was the first media company built on virality, harnessing the power of the internet to scale humor, joy, news… and a listicle on which Disney princess you are. But before Buzzfeed went public for $1.5B in 2021, Buzzfeed really began when Jonah was a student and turned a sneaker email with Nike into the 1st viral sensation.

🏎️ “The rich don’t retreat” — Ferrari’s recession shield. OPEC’s new American tax. Crocs’ Hey Dude shoes.

Ferrari just unveiled its first SUV, starting at $400K — because Ferrari is “as recession-proof as it gets.” OPEC just cut oil production in order to jack up the price, because we all pay a gas tax to Saudi Arabia.

We just got the report on what brands Gen Z likes… and the shocker is how it’s the opposite of Millennials (can we still say Zillennials? TBD). Nike shares dropped 10% Friday because it’s got too many Nike shoes — so we’re preparing for a Christmas of discounts. And guess which company is #499 in the S&P 500 this year? It’s Meta.
