    The folks at Honeybadger are giving us a look at what it’s REALLY like to run a software company. These insights were really helpful while Jon and I were building our SaaS (Transistor).

  • Must listen for all indie/bootstrapped founders

    By far the great podcast intro of all time. Also, the cover art. But the content is seriously great and appreciate these guys sharing so much about their journey and what they’ve learned along the way. It’s always a fun (and insightful) listen!
