Hi guys, I've voraciously watched a number of your shows for quite some time now. Love this and wishing you guys the best. This is only my opinion but this is what I'd love to see more of, as a regular consumer of your pod. This is all unsolicited feedback but I'd love to see:
More startup founders or even founding developers rather than politicians/non-operators. I want to know more about the real tactical and in-depth aspects of how they built their business. What did they do to get their first 50 customers? How did they build the MVP? What tech stack did they use and Why? How much time did they take? What media/distribution channels did they decide on at first, and why? What was growth like in the first 100 days or the year? How much ARR/MRR were they when they first raised capital or how many customers did they have at that point? How much did they spend on performance marketing to get x growth or customers? What is their north star metric?
This is the real useful advice/info for anyone out there looking to build something of their own. For the VCs too, considering that they've seen firsthand what a number of entrepreneurs have been doing - would love it if they were to reveal the more tactical, useful info that they've seen work for their portfolio companies or specific things that different entrepreneurs have done to give them a real leg up versus the rest. Basically actual rather than surface level fluff. More Dwarkesh Patel's style versus Harry Stebbings for instance.
Sorry for the ramble but thought I'd share :)

Hi Dear Sir, I hope you are doing well. I am a YouTube video SEO expert. I was analyzing your YouTube channel. I am really impressed by your videos, but your YouTube channel has some issues. You have made many videos, but your YouTube channel is not getting as many views and subscribers as expected. Because you have no complete SEO for any videos, no channel tags, and no video tags, if you SEO your videos, your subscribers and views will increase, and your channel will grow. Your video quality is very good, but the channel is not increasing due to not doing video SEO. By doing video SEO, the channel grows faster. I can help you if you want.
