Learn from history's greatest entrepreneurs. Every week I read a biography of an entrepreneur and find ideas you can use in your work. This quote explains why: "There are thousands of years of history in which lots and lots of very smart people worked very hard and ran all types of experiments on how to create new businesses, invent new technology, new ways to manage etc. They ran these experiments throughout their entire lives. At some point, somebody put these lessons down in a book. For very little money and a few hours of time, you can learn from someone’s accumulated experience. There is so much more to learn from the past than we often realize. You could productively spend your time reading experiences of great people who have come before and you learn every time." —Marc Andreessen

Customer Reviews
The best media (not just podcast) I’ve found as a founder
If you’re a founder or an aspiring one, you should be reading biographies.
You should also be listening to this show.
I have learned so so much from David - things I could have learned if I had infinite time to read - which, unfortunately, I don’t (I’m trying to build a company).
I cannot get enough of this. It’s information. Its inspiration. It’s valuable beyond words.
Just listen.
Absolutely amazing
Loved these podcasts.
Best Podcast To Date
I have been listening to David’s show for nearly a year now. The content is phenomenal and tailored directly to the entrepreneur/founder listening in hoping to gain insight on whatever journey they are on. I am on episode 52 right now and plan to listen through every episode available. I think you are nearing 400 now. Thank you for all your hard work, David!
