  • I’m not your traditional PM and this a gold mine

    As someone who comes from a sales background, I discovered a new world a few years ago in the product and success space but haven’t had the formal training and title of a PM. This podcast offers a wealth of information to help those like myself grow into the space, understand the department growth opportunities, and most importantly drives at instilling a line of thinking that I think great PMs have.

  • Useless

    Tried to listen two podcasts. First had invited lecturer with awful accent that I barely could understand, cause I am not a native speaker. Second podcast was soooo general. I think that the speaker was reading a Book Content and added words like “you need to do a…” and “… is very importAnt in your job”. Example: “you need to find metrics that you can analyze to understand how to grow your product”. WOW! That is really a valuable peace of information.

  • Great, top-tier guests

    I love that this show is basically a treasure trove of product experts sharing their knowledge. It’s full of practical insights and takeaways that any PM can apply directly to their work. Great stuff!

  • Extremely bad sound quality

    Guys you cannot have 100s of episodes without having fixed the very basic fundamental issue of an audible sound quality for the speaker. It is fair to say that you are giving in-person attendees more preference.

    I’ve walked away from several episodes feeling more informed, inspired, or with a great to-do list for myself as an amateur PM!

How Skydio Ships Flying Robots With Just 20 Product Managers
Q: What is the hardware cycle and how often do you update major platforms?
A major program typically runs about two years; we do revisions and attachments around that cadence, with some faster iterations like indoor variants that happen in roughly 13-18 months.
How Skydio Ships Flying Robots With Just 20 Product Managers
Q: How does Skydio fund operations across the full stack and maintain growth without depending on debt?
By leveraging revenue to fund investments, focusing on core platforms like DFR, and then expanding into other areas once those wins prove themselves, rather than chasing large funding rounds.

Q: How do you see AI enabling the real work for small businesses, especially in markets where not everyone is online all the time?
He describes ManagerBot and artifact-based AI that generates concrete workflows and actions (like inventory or pricing changes) rather than just chat. AI helps create rich, actionable artifacts and enables multi-tool workflows, letting small businesses get real work done with less manual wrangling across systems.

Q: You're the global head of product at Square. How are you thinking about the organization design and the move from business-unit to functional models?
Willem explains that Square shifted to a fully functional model organized around customer outcomes, with dedicated audiences, core platform, growth, and money teams, while maintaining product surfaces within platform to avoid a one-size-fits-none approach. The goal is to keep teams close to customer needs and empower them with a structure that supports rapid iteration and clear ownership across the product lifecycle.
