Our long-awaited third season recap of the hit show "Succession" is HERE!  Even if you watched the show and loved it, you might not have understood all of the finer points when it comes to the scheming and negotiations at WayStar Royco.  We are here to break down the key corporate finance plot points driving the drama. 

This season has SO many great finance topics to explore, including merger of equals, company valuations, and much more!  We delve a bit into the real deals that inspired and are referenced in the show, and of course get into the drama and humor of our favorite characters.
