In this episode of The Unknowns hosted by Charlie Stone, New York Times journalist and author David Gelles discusses his new biography, Dirtbag Billionaire: How Yvon Chouinard Built Patagonia, Made a Fortune, and Gave It All Away. The conversation explores Chouinard's unconventional journey as Patagonia's founder-a climbing pioneer turned reluctant billionaire who donated his entire $3-6 billion stake in 2022 to fund environmental activism-while delving into broader themes of capitalism's paradoxes, corporate responsibility, and societal shifts.
