What's up Toasters and welcome to another episode of The Toasty Podcast. Today we had a special guest on our show regarding World Economic Forum, Davos Man and Capitalism. He's the author of a best seller book called "Davos Man: How the Billionaires Devoured the World". You can find it here
We don't always talk about products on our show because that isn't the point for us, but when I love something, I talk about it. EveryPlate is just another meal delivery service but it's the most affordable one and it's actually super good quality. You cook it yourself, but the portioned are accurate. If you don't like meal planning and shopping for all sorts of ingredients you'll only use once, this is your answer. If you want $20 off just for listening to The Toasty Podcast, click here
Transcript: Welcome back to another Toasty episode of the podcast. My name is Skye (and I'm Matty B). Here with us via Zoom today is Peter Goodman. Peter why don't we start by telling the audience a little bit about you -
- I told ya'll this one was good and I can't wait to get more into it, but before we begin, if you're listening for the first time please do us all a favor and click the "Follow" or "Subscribe" button on whatever app you're using to listen to us right now. Don't wait because I know everyone has ADD these days and you'll forget. We want open conversation and unlike several Right-Wing and Left-Wing journalists that I could name off the top of my head, we want it with everyone - not just our own echo chamber. If you agree with that idea then tell your friends about this show. That's the only way we grow! -
- Alright Peter I know time is important, but my first question isn't really directly from your book. Does Elon Musk fall into the Davos Man category in your opinion? For those that don't know you may also give people the quick version of what a Davos Man is actually...
- Well what made you even decide to research the Davos meetings? I mean I'm just really curious how you even found your way to these things
- Ok - let's talk stakeholder capitalism - the idea that big corporations will essentially own world powers like companies and shareholders, how real is this idea and is it something we should actually be concerned about

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
