In this episode, Billy discusses the Shlensky v Wrigley case, which centers around a shareholder's push to install lights at Wrigley Field for night games. Philip K. Wrigley, the director of the Chicago Cubs, opposed the installation. The case highlights the tension between prioritizing shareholder profits and deferring to the judgment of directors.
