  • What’s up with “like”?

    I just listened to Uncapped #13 and I can’t believe the many times “like” was used in each sentence of their conversation. Please tone it down. It sounds annoying after a while.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Uncapped #48 | Tarek Mansour from Kalshi
Q: What was the key driver for Kalshi to pursue prediction markets despite regulatory hurdles?
The core idea was that markets can aggregate information about future events, and by applying a market mechanism to questions about the future, you could get smarter, more accurate answers than relying on opinions alone.
Uncapped #45 | Ron Conway from SV Angel
Q: How did you respond during the COVID-19 crisis to help your portfolio companies survive?
Conway describes sweeping, decisive actions to secure capital quickly, instructing founders to push through challenges, and leveraging relationships with investors like Silver Lake to stabilize companies during a time of acute uncertainty.
Uncapped #45 | Ron Conway from SV Angel
Q: What is the mindset behind building a broad, connected network that can help founders gain distribution and partnerships?
The mindset is to be the human router, constantly connecting people, nurturing relationships over time, and maintaining a long-term commitment to the ecosystem, rather than just chasing immediate financial returns.
Uncapped #45 | Ron Conway from SV Angel
Q: How do you view the role of angel investing—passive or active—and what does SV Angel's approach look like?
Conway emphasizes a fully active, founder-centric approach—being available 24/7, helping with team-building, strategy, and even crisis management, and positioning SV Angel as 'Advocates for Founders' who engage deeply at inflection points.
Uncapped #45 | Ron Conway from SV Angel
Q: What year did Altos Computer go public and what was the experience like for you?
Altos went public in the mid-1980s, with a memorable closing dinner in New York; the exit underscored the high-stakes, high-reward nature of tech investing and helped set Conway on a path toward angel investing and venture capital-like involvement.
