3 Anti-Comfort Businesses That Are Making Millions

Synopsis

Sam and Shaan challenge each other to Misogi-style discomfort (Shaan's Speed Project, the Monkey Run, Barkley Marathon), riff on iconic branding, declare 'the definition of luxury is dominating your customer,' call Harvard Shaan's favourite luxury brand, walk through how to put a 10% remix on an idea (with Greg Isenberg's free-jacket movement as case study and Marissa Mayer's 'hilarious launch'), use Oncken/Halaris's 'Who's Got the Monkey?' manager-time framework, and feature $14K specialty beds.
