Acquired: My New Favorite Podcast

About a month ago I started listening to Acquired per a recommendation from a family member. the first episode I listened to was on Mars INC. I’ll be honest I did not think a 4 hour podcast on a candy company would be of most much interest. I am glad to say that my first instinct was incorrect. The hosts Ben Gilbert and David Rosenthal have such an engaging delivery, that I found myself on the edge my seat waiting for more information. Since then I have listened to episodes on Walmart, Trader Joes, and Disney just to name a few. I highly recommend checking out this podcast if you want to learn more about how some of the world’s most influential businesses got started and continue to retain customers year in and year out.
