Assembled is the AI customer support platform powering hundreds of modern enterprises including Stripe, Robinhood, Salesforce, and Ashley Furniture. The company's largest customer operates a 20,000-person contact center. With products spanning AI chat and voice agents that resolve 70-80% of tickets to sophisticated workforce management and forecasting systems, Assembled's core thesis challenges the industry narrative: the best support teams orchestrate humans and AI in perfect balance rather than replacing one with the other. In a recent episode of Category Visionaries, we sat down with Ryan Wang, CEO and Co-Founder of Assembled, to explore the company's journey from eight months to first customer to becoming the infrastructure behind customer experiences at scale. Topics Discussed: The reality gap between AI support demos and production deployment Why sophisticated buyers now demand quality benchmarks and latency metrics over feature lists The hidden complexity in contact center work: KYC compliance, fraud review, and multi-system workflows How the Klarna "fire everyone" approach failed and what it reveals about the market Patrick and John Collison's all-company support rotations at Stripe The product-market fit question that ended six months of wrong direction Enterprise destiny baked into early product decisions Converting LinkedIn discomfort into a systematic storytelling engine Path dependence from workforce management to AI automation products Why customer support problems rhyme with operations challenges across industries GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Quality-first positioning wins when buyers move past demo amazement: Ryan observed a critical market shift. Sophisticated buyers now run rigorous bake-offs with training data variability and ask for latency metrics, quality benchmarks, and production performance data. The last three AI deals Assembled closed required detailed competitive evaluations. When messaging emphasizes cost reduction over quality improvement, you lose credibility with buyers who understand that turning off support entirely would be free—they're investing in lifetime value and loyalty creation. Position around the buyer's actual objective hierarchy: quality first, efficiency as validation. The product-market fit question that encodes your entire GTM strategy: Ryan's co-founder asked prospects "What is software that you must have or you hate your options?" This single question revealed multiple strategic insights simultaneously: you're targeting painkillers in established categories, pursuing replacement sales against weak incumbents, and entering markets with demonstrated willingness to pay. For Assembled, this naturally surfaced workforce management—a must-have category with Windows 95-era tools serving 20,000-person teams. The question's elegance is how it filters for product-market fit and GTM approach in one conversation. Access the best through respect signals, not connections: When hiring his first engineering executive at 15 people, Ryan got an introduction to a former VP of Engineering at Facebook, then explicitly signaled time respect: requested only 15 minutes, clarified he wasn't recruiting, offered availability "Saturday 8pm or anytime," and had specific questions prepared. The call happened at an odd Saturday time. The insight wasn't just learning about "Dual Lands" leadership (a Magic: The Gathering reference)—it was understanding how exceptional minds construct mental models. You can reach these people through investor networks or multi-hop introductions, but earning their time requires demonstrating you'll use it surgically. Recognize when you're not "the company" to avoid strategic errors: A top recruiting firm told Ryan "you're not Stripe, so you can't sell people like you're Stripe." At any moment, one Silicon Valley company occupies a unique position—Stripe then, OpenAI now—where normal rules don't apply. That company can eliminate product managers, remove all titles, or make unconventional demands. Understanding you're not in that position prevents catastrophic hiring missteps. Ryan had to recalibrate from Stripe-era patterns where his recruiter became Anthropic's president and his onboarding buddy became OpenAI's president. Your positioning must match your actual market gravity, not your aspirational tier. Systematize founder storytelling to compound credibility: Ryan solved founder marketing discomfort by reframing from self-promotion to being an intermediary—sharing customer stories from Armenia, banking conferences, and global contact centers rather than broadcasting opinions. The system: Friday morning sessions with prompts ("interesting things from this week," "near-death moments," "challenges from 1-10M to 10-20M ARR," "why London now?"), team filters for compelling angles, three drafts weekly, then editing. The Science of Storytelling principles apply: narratives demonstrating lived experience build more credibility than thought leadership. This creates a flywheel where audience members surface their own stories in comments and DMs, feeding future content. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Zac and Phil go deep on Magic: The Gathering's growing obsession with outside IPs, asking the big question — when did “nods” become “crossovers”?In this episode, they explore how Magic evolved from subtle flavor callbacks (like Theros's Greek myth inspiration or Arabian Nights' literary roots) to full-on Universes Beyond product lines. The conversation spans design philosophy, flavor theory, and even a little literary criticism — all centered on why Magic feels different now.From Avatar: The Last Airbender to Spider-Man and beyond, the guys debate what makes some collaborations work and others feel… off. Is it art style? Setting? Narrative tone? Or is it that Magic used to suggest connections rather than define them?

Yu-Gi-Oh!, along with Magic: The Gathering and Pokemon, is one of the original big 3 trading card games. Starting its life as a Manga, then a tv series, the story about the card game eventually became a card game. Since then Yugioh has morphed through many different iterations and is still going strong today, even if its present self doesn't have much to do with its humble beginnings. Nestled right in between the birth of the card game and the current format is Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's World Championship 2011: Over the Nexus. It's an interesting middle child of the franchise for many reasons - it builds off previous games in the franchise while still being primarily a single player game. Its format at full power makes the decks of yesteryear look like a joke, but would get trounced by anything played today. It boasts a truly absurd card pool of ~4300 cards, and they're shockingly mostly coded correctly.So, is it worth going back to a different time and place to play some single player Yu-Gi-Oh? Or is this weird slice of history more of a curio to look back on and never experience?On this episode, we discuss:IdentityWhat exactly is the identity of Yu-Gi-Oh! compared to other trading card games like Magic or Hearthstone? What does it excel at, and where is it at its weakest? How does the game actually play out, with its extra deck and high consistency tutors?DeckbuildingHow viable is it for the player to build their own deck from scratch? How well does the UI facilitate both experimenting with ideas, and finding cards that synergise together? Do enemy decks give you inspiration and options, or are they generic and copy pasted?Progression SystemsHow do you unlock the cards required to build your decks? Are unlocks intelligently seeded throughout your playthrough to give you a gradual increase in power? Is it satisfying to gradually build a deck up from its basic roots, or is it too difficult to acquire key cards?We answer these questions and many more on the 135th episode of the Retro Spectives Podcast!--Intro Music: KieLoBot - Tanzen KOutro Music: Rockit Maxx - One point to anotherYugioh 2001 OST: Miki Murai, Kazuma Jinnouchi, Yasuhita Iso--Is there a better Yugioh video game out there that we somehow missed on?

Halo is coming to Playstation and that is bonkers! We of course discuss the current state of the games industry and goa little deep on Halo Combat Evolved in general. We then say goodbye to Tee's Aunt Eloise who went to be with the ancestors recently and of course we dedicate this episode to her memory. Popcorn balls are near the top of worstHalloween treats. What are some other bad ones? We then, as we regularly do around these parts, discuss Ohio Cannabis, in this case, the medical side of it. Box took a trip to That State Up North for some adventure in Magic The Gathering and a poor Buddy's Pizza Experience that embarrassed him in front of his friends. We talk foodie influencers and if their influence actually works. So, out of nowhere, Spotify does not like some of the songs we use on the podcast. The issue is, we pay to license the music we use. What it seems to be is someone on Spotify laying claim to the artists we license from works. Wehave appealed but on the real, it means some of our eps are being pulled from Spotify. If they pull the ep it will be posted for free on our Patreon. On to Tee Time, Tee's empty nest was full again for a night. We then head to Reddit for AITA which was sort of wack, until Box came through with what was essentially a personal AITA before we wrap with our entertainment recommendations.

Meet the newest member of our elder law team, attorney Josh Hunter—a history major turned lawyer who pairs environmental policy training with a calm, strategic approach to complex family needs. We walk through the realities of apprenticeship in a focused practice: why mastering estate planning, long-term care benefits, probate, trust administration, and litigation takes more than textbooks, and how mentorship builds judgment you can trust when decisions affect generations.Josh shares how law school flipped on the lights for him, revealing how constitutional principles and precedent actually operate in daily life. He then took a deeper dive into environmental law and policy, a choice rooted in his love for the outdoors and a commitment to stewardship. That same respect for systems shows up in his legal work—translating rules into practical, compassionate solutions for older adults and their families.Outside the office, Josh recharges with daily hikes and powerlifting, a routine that keeps stress low and focus high, especially after dense research days. He's also a strategy gamer—Dungeons & Dragons, Magic: The Gathering, and Pokémon—where creativity thrives inside strict rule sets. That habit maps directly onto elder law: analyze the rules, design the path, and adjust with care and precision. As Josh steps into our Hendersonville office, he's eager to learn the courthouse rhythms, collaborate with our experienced team, and serve a vibrant retirement community with clarity and heart.If you value thoughtful counsel that blends empathy with disciplined problem solving, you'll enjoy getting to know Josh.

This podcast is another in my "Lessons Learned" series where I talk about sets I led or co-led and walk through all the design lessons I learned. This time, I discuss Murders at Karlov Manor.
Sometimes, the greatest design skill is to never give up. In this podcast, I talk about times it took a while for an idea to make it to print.

Discussing Ben's interview with Substrate CEO James Proud, including the "insane" challenge he's undertaken as Substrate attempts to compete with TSMC and ASML, and the ways in which a bubbly environment benefits innovation by incentivizing exactly that sort of moonshot. From there: Ben's thoughts on the "Too Big to Fail" era in tech that may be averted, reactions to the latest humanoid robot, and thoughts on both sides of the OpenAI-MIcrosoft announcement earlier this week. At the end: Taylor Sheridan leaves Paramount for greener pastures, Sharp Text and lessons from Grantland, a temperature check on Sora one month later, lessons from the Nexperia mess in Europe, a question about Magic: The Gathering, and a few corrections to last week's show.
Join me and the Theology Beer Camp All-Stars as we debrief the beautiful chaos that was camp this year! We're talking 600 people, ages 8 to 96, with highlights including: Jared Byas secretly being a Magic: The Gathering wizard who destroyed everyone, a volunteer named Tor who flew in from Norway and became everyone's bestie, an opening theological wrestling match, and yours truly singing karaoke in a bunny suit because someone has to lower the bar for everyone else. But here's the real deal—as much as we love talking nerdy theology stuff, what makes Beer Camp special is the permission to just be yourself. Whether you're pouring coffee at 6 AM, filling beer steins, or revealing your secret nerd hobbies, it's about people showing up as people. Big thanks to our volunteer coordinator Bren (Camp Gandalf) and her 40-person crew who made it all happen. Already can't wait for next year, and that's saying something since I usually need two weeks of sleep before I can even think about it again. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube. Sign up HERE to stay up to date on Theology Beer Camp 2026 & get EARLY ACCESS to the cheapest tickets. UPCOMING ONLINE ADVENT CLASS w/ Diana Butler Bass Join us for a transformative four-week Advent journey exploring how the four gospels speak their own revolutionary word against empire—both in their ancient context under Roman occupation and for our contemporary world shaped by capitalism, militarism, and nationalism. Advent marks the beginning of the church year—an invitation to step out of the empire's time and into God's time, where the last are first, the mighty are scattered, and a child born in occupied territory changes everything. This course invites you into an alternative calendar and rhythm. While our modern world races through December toward consumption and productivity, Advent calls us to a different time—a counter-imperial waiting, a subversive hope, a radical reimagining of how God enters the world. What will we experience? Each week, we'll hear one gospel's unique vision of the birth narrative, allowing Matthew, Luke, John, and Mark to speak in their own voices about what it means for God to show up when empires think they're in control. We'll discover how these ancient texts of resistance offer wisdom for our own moment of political turmoil, economic inequality, and ecological crisis. This class is donation-based, including 0.
