And how does he keep reinventing himself?

To help me answer this question, I'm joined by chief correspondent and business insider and host of channels, Peter Kafka.

you know, an everyday, you know, conversation about why they think our economy is so messed up in their opinion or why they feel like it's impossible to get a job or why groceries are so expensive.

I mean, increasingly people are looking at finance boroughs like, okay, is this your fault?

I mean, how many times have you seen on social media outlining the ways in which private equity have kind of broken a lot of like American institutions that people really lean on?

It's exotic.

Hello, hello.

I'm Brittany Luce, and you're listening to It's Been a Minute from NPR, a show about what's going on in culture and why it doesn't happen by accident.

So for those who have not yet tapped into industry, the show follows the lives of young bankers and traders looking to make their way up the financial food chain in London.

And its lead character is one of the most chaotic finance bros we've seen in a while, Harper Stern.

Eric, look at me.
