Antonio García Martínez is no stranger to controversy. He sold a company, was a key architect of Facebook's advertising products, wrote a bestselling book (which was critical of some of his old colleagues), and now lives in a yurt in Washington. Put lightly, he has some strong opinions.


García Martínez eloquently explains some of his own experiences in San Francisco, how he would solve some of the city's biggest problems, and how privilege doesn't insulate you from problems. The conversation bounces from subject to subject in frenetic style. We hear about García Martínez' upbringing in Miami, his time at Goldman Sachs, and his experience at Facebook. García Martínez finds himself - at times - in the position of defending his old employer (whereas in his book he comes off as critical of Facebook).


This is a must-listen interview.
