A Q&A and a search for stories. View this email in your browser Questions and answers

Happy 2017! There was a lot of discussion about our just-finished series on Dov Charney. Let's keep that going. Lisa Chow will be answering questions about it this coming Wednesday, 1/18, from 3 - 4 p.m. ET in the Gimlet subreddit.



Haven't heard the series? It's all here. Binge, and then join us! Onwards!



We’re searching for story ideas for our next season, which will be headed your way in April. Our favorite stories are built around entrepreneurs who are thoughtful, dynamic, and honest about their own strengths and weaknesses. We try to capture businesses going through an inflection point of some sort—a launch, a major reworking, a crisis. And we engage in deep reporting; we spend a lot of time documenting the life of the business and the people involved in it.



Beyond that, we’re open to all different sorts of ideas. If you have one for us, send them to us at startup@gimletmedia.com (or just reply to this email). Please make the subject line “Next StartUp”.
