How Malcolm Gladwell Comes up with Ideas

“A book comes out and there’s a whole world out there that pounces on it and tells you why it’s bad. A podcast — there is no critical infrastructure. None. Zero. No one ever tells you not to listen to it. And not only that, there’s no expectation of what a podcast is supposed to be.”

Gladwell explains that he’s opposed to simplistic readings of complicated social phenomenons and why he launched a podcast.
