Where's the whiskey?
That should be part of your, like, mobile kit.

Like a tequila shot or something.
Welcome to season four, episode eight of Acquired, the podcast about technology, acquisitions and IPOs.
I'm Ben Gilbert.
I'm David Rosenthal, and we are your hosts.
To introduce our episode today, I want to play you a little clip from Emily Chang on Bloomberg tv.
This is from the day of the Zoom ipo, where she interviewed Eric Yuan, the founder and CEO of Zoom.
As you can tell from this clip, Eric is incredibly grounded, humble, and quite a different type of Silicon Valley CEO, as we will see when we get into this episode.
And that's very exciting, but it's also.
A lot of pressure.
We've seen some of the recent IPOs.
Like Lyft have a lot of volatility.
Do you feel that pressure?
I do, I do.
Because the prices are too high.
So.
So you think the price is too high?
