Season 2 Ep 4 The Company You Keep

Given all we had heard about the gig economy we were skeptical there could be an ethical business model.  In The Company You Keep, one businessperson set out to convince us that better alternatives are possible.  We explore how, if we keep humans in the loop, it's possible platforms for domestic and care work can be an opportunity, not a curse.  

Guests:  Aaron Seyedian, CEO, Well-Paid Maids and Sayem, a cleaner working with Well-Paid Maids
