What’s it like to be in charge of a failing company? And then, just a couple years later, running Silicon Valley’s most buzzed-about startup?
In the first episode of “Re/code Decode,” Slack CEO and founder Stewart Butterfield answers questions like these (and more!) in conversation with Re/code co-Executive Editor Kara Swisher. Thanks to the work of our fabulous intern Rachel Bracker, you can watch video of the interview below.
To listen to the full podcast episode, which features Apple Music and Reddit talk — plus a “Jesus, Take the Wheel” sing-along — check out our website or get it on iTunes.

Will you support Vox’s explanatory journalism?
Most news outlets make their money through advertising or subscriptions. But when it comes to what we’re trying to do at Vox, there are a couple reasons that we can't rely only on ads and subscriptions to keep the lights on.
First, advertising dollars go up and down with the economy. We often only know a few months out what our advertising revenue will be, which makes it hard to plan ahead.
Second, we’re not in the subscriptions business. Vox is here to help everyone understand the complex issues shaping the world — not just the people who can afford to pay for a subscription. We believe that’s an important part of building a more equal society. We can’t do that if we have a paywall.
That’s why we also turn to you, our readers, to help us keep Vox free. If you also believe that everyone deserves access to trusted high-quality information, will you make a gift to Vox today?
Yes, I'll give $5/month
