Boeing had one job: build planes that don’t fall out of the sky.
We watched Downfall: The Case Against Boeing (on Netflix), a documentary about how one of the world’s most trusted companies messed up badly. Two crashes, hundreds of lives lost, and a bunch of execs pretending everything was fine.
We got into what went wrong, how greed took over, and why the system basically set Boeing up to fail. Also… why are their whistleblowers suddenly dying?
→ Next episode we’ll review Raising Kratos (God of War documentary), can't wait to discuss that one with y'all. It’s free on YouTube if you want to watch it!
