Learn from history's greatest entrepreneurs. Every week I read a biography of an entrepreneur and find ideas you can use in your work.

I’m not too sure how to articulate the living of this man’s podcast. I would love to speak with him at least one time. I love the emphasis on doing compared to hearing. The continual triumph over an entrepreneur’s challenge can’t be sufficiently stated in a review.
If you could define this podcast with one word, it would be: Excellence.
David Senra is totally committed to studying the biographys of history greatest founders, gathering the most important lessons from their lifes and putting them on an episode.
The lessons from one life can be seen in another one, but this is only achievable when you've studied hundreds of biographies. Just like David.
So don't doubt it, and just hit play, you won't regret it!!!
This is an incredible podcast and a masterclass on great leaders.
I’m constantly learning about influential people, hearing how they think, and applying their ideas to both my business and my life. David does a fantastic job bringing these stories to life, and this has become my absolute favorite podcast to listen to. Highly recommend it to anyone building something meaningful.
Here because of Mohnish Pabrai, stayed because of you. Great job keep going!
I love this podcast. This is a goldmine. But I am sick of hearing about ramp now 😅 I would be happy to learn about other companies in ads section. But man ramp 😭😭😭
