The fourth part in a series about the films of
David Fincher and Paul Verhoeven. Jessa invites writer, Tech
StartUp employee, and Harvard Alum Austin Grossman onto the show to
discuss Fincher’s film about the bad men of tech, The Social
Network, all the new forms of misogyny, and why Mark Zuckerberg is
an asshole. “You are probably going to be a very successful
computer person. But you're going to go through life thinking that
girls don't like you because you're a nerd. And I want you to know,
from the bottom of my heart, that that won't be true. It'll be
because you're an asshole.”
