Untold: the rise and fall of and1 - JJJ - 04-06-2023

I don’t know if this has been posted before. I just happened to watch this Netflix documentary on And1 and I had no idea one of the 3 founders was a Stanford alum. It was very entertaining but also not a happy ending.

Also, in movie theaters, another, more famous Stanford (GSB) alum's company, played by none other than Ben Afleck:

And the GSB alum and his company were featured and came across as a bit of a bully in the And1 story. But they're still around.

Saw it when it first dropped, very entertaining documentary about an interesting story. I didn't know about the Stanford connection either but regardless it was a fascinating "rise and fall" story.
