About Land of the Giants - The Rise of Amazon: In 25 years, Jeff Bezos scaled an online marketplace for books into the world’s most valuable company. But at what cost? From Prime to the growing adoption of smart speakers and home cameras, to increasing scrutiny of Amazon’s power and its role in the changing nature of work, this show addresses it all, with detailed, thought-provoking, measured reporting. And it’s not just for insiders. This show is the essential guide to Amazon’s backstory for those unfamiliar, and offers never-before-told, behind-the-scenes stories for the Amazon-obsessed.
