He makes fun of himself, his co-presenters and basically everything about the UK and British people constantly (especially when it comes to manufacturing). For that matter, they've done entire episodes about how terrible the UK is at t

He makes comments about every group, I've seen no persistent bias against any group (aside from politicians who make it less fun to drive). And he certainly doesn't exclude himself/his own type, as there's something nega

If he wasn't on BBC (which as a state broadcaster has far more political sensitivity) it probably wouldn't have been so much of an issue in the UK. Most of his "controversies" would not even be news in the US. A person o

There's not really any market justification for running it in the first place (aside from what value it has for scenic purposes), nor is there ever likely to be. A flight from Denver to San Francisco is $150-200 roundtrip and takes abo

It seems like it's a direct IT support position. Meaning that someone is supposed to be there ready to answer calls/problems from 9AM to whenever. Clients, whether internal or external do not want to call in at 9:15 and hear tha

"In fact, when we funded Airbnb, we thought it was too crazy. We couldn't believe large numbers of people would want to stay in other people's places" I don't understand why anyone would have thought this at that ti

Most large companies do/have done exactly that. Arguably 9/11 was the big catalyst for DR planning. There were Wall St firms that literally had to get the military to escort them into Lower Manhattan in the days after to rescue se
