About the show

REWORK is a podcast about a better way to work and run your business, from 37signals — the makers of Basecamp and HEY. While the prevailing narrative around successful entrepreneurship tells you to scale fast and raise money, we think there’s a better way.

REWORK is proudly hosted by Buzzsprout
