  • Actionable, useful and timely

    You know how most podcasts go on for too long, are filled with ads and seem self-serving and vaguely narcissistic? Well, this is the opposite of that. I’ve listened to ~ all business and startup podcasts, and I can tell you with certainty this was made by someone who is exceptional at what they do about AND respects your time. It’s almost like hearing Stanley Kubrick teach you how to make a better movie. more
