Who's meowing? Who's that meowing? Hi, everyone. This is Pivot from New York Magazine and the Vox Media Podcast Network. I'm Kara Swisher.
Scott Galloway 1:45
And I'm Scott Galloway.
Kara Swisher 1:46
Scott, get excited because we're doing your favorite show of the year. Horn? No, no. Scott, immediately you go.
Emily Ratajkowski 1:53
Emily Ratajkowski is finally on.
Kara Swisher 1:55
She's not calling you.
Emily Ratajkowski 1:56
No?
Kara Swisher 1:57
Not at all. None of them are. None of them are. Nope, nope, nope. Okay. Anyway, we're here doing things a little differently today with some help from our audience, our beloved audience, our fan base.
Emily Ratajkowski 2:06
Because you're such a woman of the people.
Kara Swisher 2:09
I am. I am. I am. I get stopped all the time. Last night, someone screamed when they saw me in a good way.
Emily Ratajkowski 2:15
I scream when I see you.
Kara Swisher 2:16
Yes, that's true. Coming up, Pivot listeners will be calling in with questions on topics that matter to them, and therefore, they matter to us. And we're going to be highly respectful, Scott Galloway, because our audience are the reason we do this. And we're going to meet the people, Scott, the people who listen to us. They have questions for us. Okay, let's jump right in and get to our first call. All right, our first caller. Hello, caller. Who are we talking to and what's your question?
Christine 2:44
Well, hello. I'm Christine. I'm calling from San Marcos, Texas, just outside of one of your favorite towns of Austin. And my question today is about enoughness. Because I've worked for two decades with materials, I'm an artist, that would otherwise go in the trash. So I've thought a lot about this idea of what is enough, both personally and as a collective. And so I'm curious what your relationship is to the concept of enoughness and wonder how you practice it in your life, how you discuss it with your kids. and how you speak about it within your spheres of influence. So, you know, generally, how do you personally square the capitalist drumbeat of scarcity and never-enoughness with the real human need to feel sated?
Kara Swisher 3:29
Oh, wow. That's a serious question. That's a good one. Scott, shall I start? Who's meowing? Who's that meowing? Oh, I'm sorry.
Christine 3:37
I have a meowing cat. Let me...
Scott Galloway 3:39
That's our Christine. By the way, one cat is enough. Yeah, I agree. Kara, do you want to kick us off?
Kara Swisher 3:46
Let's keep the cat going. It's okay. It's okay. I love a cat. I love cats. Scott only likes dogs. That's how we live with each other. That is a really good question. I think a lot about enough, actually, my whole life. It sounds really weird, but it manifests in kind of crazy ways. I don't like things very much. I like experiences.
