Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Super Connector System: David Homan on Building Relationships at the Speed of Trust
Q: So why don't we start off with a quick introduction—where are you coming from and what do you do?
David explains his upbringing, his identity as a connector, and how he built SOAR Connect to systematize authentic relationships that can lead to meaningful investor and partner introductions.
Hockey Enforcer to $110M: Dave Burnett on Grit, Time, and Making AI See Your Startup
Q: How do you manage time and focus when starting and growing multiple ventures?
He describes a granular time-management system: 1,440 minutes per day, divided into 10-minute blocks, with a discipline to track activities, protect focus on the constraint of the business (often awareness/marketing), and schedule deep work in the morning before meetings; this enables rapid progress and better prioritization.
Hockey Enforcer to $110M: Dave Burnett on Grit, Time, and Making AI See Your Startup
Q: What should new founders be thinking about to ensure they show up in AI systems two years from now?
Start with a source of truth owned by the founder (a strong website) and implement Schema Markup to communicate structure to machines. Build out content and an authoritative, consistent knowledge graph while pursuing journalist outreach and PR to establish independent coverage—these elements help AI models recognize and recommend the business.
