Super Pumped: The Battle for Uber, tells the story of one of the most successful tech companies to emerge out of Silicon Valley - Uber.
Based on Mike Isaac's book, Super Pumped takes us through the rise and fall of Uber CEO Travis Kalanick. Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays the role of Kalanick, who rose to fame following the launch of his ride-sharing platform and in 2017 was ousted amidst multiple issues and allegations.
The story highlights how one has to come out of the founder's state of mind and change his/her mindset as the company evolves around them.
Uma Thurman plays Ariana Huffington, while Kyle Chandler plays the role of venture capitalist Bill Gurley.
Super Pumped: The Battle for Uber is now streaming on Voot.

Watched the first episode and thoroughly enjoyed it. Rating it a full 5 stars. I love business shows and a story on such a game-changing company is as good as it gets. Joseph Gordon-Levitt has played the role of Kalanick really well.
The downside? Unlike Netflix which releases all episodes at once, these guys are coming out with 1 episode every week :Frustrati:Frustrati. Oh man, it's a long wait to next week! Platforms & producers should let the user decide when he / she wants to watch.
Watched 4 episodes and am hooked. Thanks for the recommendation, guys. Its the most compelling case study of a game changer that is Travis Kalanick (a complete egomaniac), and quite toxic at that. But then these guys bulldozed established taxi players, so it did need guts and gumption. JGL (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is in his element and sets it up nicely with Kyle Chandler. Cant wait for the rest. Super Awesome!
