What happens when even basic business can’t be effectively done? How did we get here? Spencer and Laurie digest more of John Rao’s thoughts from various books and try to settle their argument from the last episode.
Spencer, Laurie and Emily delve into the history of Spencer’s attempt to form a collective of friends in Kansas City, and why it failed. The aim was to pool resources and labor, live better and influence the growing and food scene. The lessons learned are generally applicable and hopefully useful to anyone who is interested in cooperating with others in a quasi-communal setting or getting involved in smalls-scale local farming.
