Acquired is a business podcast hosted by Ben Gilbert and David Rosenthal that examines the history and strategy of major companies. Each episode is a long-form narrative deep dive into a single company, often running three to four hours, and the hosts have described the format as a "conversational audiobook" rather than a conventional podcast. As of 2025 the show reached more than one million listeners per episode and was among the highest-ranked technology podcasts on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
