So, so happy to have stumbled across this show. Greg is now my constant workout buddy. He’s inspired me with so many practical ideas as I, a non coder, am about to bring my first product to market. Could t have done it without him
Once the best podcast on the planet, but now it’s all click bait titles, moneymaking lies and literally nothing of value.
I miss the old Greg who loved to brainstorm. The Greg that ignited thousands of people to create stuff. To just do stuff. For those just started listening. Go back to the old episodes. Those are gold. Those are different. You can find what Greg does now everywhere, but the old Greg was unique.
I’ve never listened to The Startup Ideas Podcast but I’ll be back. I liked JC’s in person events idea and would like to hear more from him. Honestly, the communication between the two of you screamed -nerds!!!… and I am here for it. The episode was interesting and unique. I’m heading to X to give @jicecream some props and subscribe.
Too much content about AI tools now. Liked it much better before.
It’s amazing when people who are financially successful still feel the desire to teach and give back… we are lucky to be living in that generation where that’s normal. I hope Greg continues to give to us forever and teach us the ways to make money and make use of AI in the modern era. Keep up the great work!
