Podcasts about Neon

In Part 2, we pick up more or less where we left off in Part 1, hearing the story of how Randall and Al came to love all things neon. Their enthusiasm kicked into high gear when they started noticing neon signs coming down, and they decided to try to do something about it. That something started with documenting the signs. And with that came a bit of a learning curve, especially around photographing artificial lights at night. Over the next five years, they captured and captured and captured, getting as many extant signs as they could find. Randall had some book design experience under her belt, especially aspects like packaging and getting it to a printer. She also knew how to put a book proposal together, and so they did. But friends and people in the publishing industry warned them that it would difficult to find a publisher. Randall suggested to her partner that they publish the 200-page book themselves, and that's exactly what they did. They had the photos and the design down. All they needed was money. Kickstarter was still pretty new, and they chose that platform. Within two weeks, they had met and exceeded their goal. It was on. Donations came in from all over The City, the country, and the world. In addition to money to fund publication, Randall and Al were gifted a community of fellow neon enthusiasts. These days, many folks in that community attend symposiums that Al and Randall put on. I ask the couple to name other towns, besides San Francisco, that have what I'm calling "good neon." They rattle off a few—Denver; Portland, OR; Livingston, MT; Reno; Los Angeles. Randall plugged a site by Debra Jane Seltzer called RoadsideArchitecture.com that documents neon and other signage in all US states except Hawaii and Alaska. To help design the cover of their book, Randall and Al asked their Instagram followers. A photo of the Verdi Club and its neon won, easily. That venue quickly emerged as the obvious choice for where to host the book's launch party. Around 300 guests showed up that night in 2014. After launch, they realized they needed ideas to keep the book and The City's neon signage in people's minds. Tours were among the first of those ideas. But that started as a one-off in Chinatown. A few of the guests on that first tour were tube benders—folks who, among other things, bend the glass that goes into making a neon sign. In the end, the students taught the teachers that day. Those tube benders introduced Randall and Al to a guy in Oakland named Jim Rizzo who does neon restoration work at Neon Works. They've been working with Jim ever since. When I ask if that Chinatown tour in support of their book was what got them started doing tours in general, Randall turns back to The Society for Experiential Graphic Design (SEGD). The group was holding its convention in San Francisco and asked Randall and Al to take visitors on a tour of The City. They learned a lot from that, including how long to hold your tour before folks get tired or hungry. Fast-forward to after their book was published, when folks who bought the book reached out asking if Randall and Al could show them around San Francisco's various noteworthy neon signs. They didn't think they had it in them to do that on a regular basis. But then other San Francisco tour guides signed up wanting to be shown our city's neon. Little by little, those guides taught Randall and Al tools of the trade. In the beginning, they second-guessed themselves. "We're a photographer and a graphic designer. What are we doing giving tours?" But they soon learned the real value of neon walking tours—the chance to walk around San Francisco at twilight with people from all walks of life. The side hustle was its own reward (something very familiar to me, in my role hosting this podcast). If you'd like to take one (or all) of Randall and Al's tours, sign up on their website—SFneon.org. You'll also find other books about neon that they've published. One of those books is all about saving neon. They got in touch with folks they were meeting from all over the country who were doing that work in their own cities. The book is a good resource for anyone who, like Randall and Al in the Mission all those years ago, wants to preserve signs in their area. So, they published the book, started doing tours, launched an annual conference … but still, they wanted to do more. They talked with folks at SF Heritage, picking their brains for things like how to get grant money for neon sign preservation. They told them to talk with people at The Tenderloin Museum (TLM), and mentioned Katie Conry specifically. When Randall and Al talked with her, Katie just got it, immediately. TLM has been SF Neon's fiscal sponsor ever since. (Ed. note: This podcast was arranged with help with Katie at Tenderloin Museum. Thanks, Katie!) As you learned on this show back in April of this year, TLM is expanding. Part of that expansion will free up the museum's current space. Once they move all of their exhibits and artifacts into the new space, the current Tenderloin Museum will become a San Francisco neon gallery. Randall and Al are of course a huge part of that work. The first sign donated to the new gallery is from Tony's Cable Car, a spot near and dear to my heart and just blocks from my home. We end the podcast with Randall reminding folks that this time of year is best for the kinds of tours they do. It gets dark earlier, so there are more hours in the day to see neon signs in their glory, and the hours start around 4:30/5 p.m.

Most conversations in startups begin at zero: what's the idea, who's the customer, how big is the market. But the stage before that, when you know you're ready to be a founder yet the direction is still completely undefined. That strange, uncomfortable, high-potential zone Aditya Agarwal calls “minus one.”In this episode, Aditya and Prateek Mehta breaks down what happens in this “figuring out” stage. The questions people avoid, the habits that matter, and why some of the best companies begin long before their founders have any conviction.We get into how this stage is evolving in the AI era. Exploration cycles are faster, technical founders can test more directions than ever, and the gap between “I'm experimenting” and “I'm running a real company” has narrowed. India's builder ecosystem is shifting too: more second-time founders, more people with real outcomes behind them, and far more comfort sitting with ambiguity.Aditya shares his own minus-one moment after Facebook, his startup acquisition, Dropbox's IPO, and Flipkart, and why that transitional period changed the way he thinks about early-stage startups. Prateek brings on-the-ground view from Bangalore, where ambition, technical depth, and the appetite to explore hard problems from robotics to voice models to AI infra are rising.This episode is for anyone who feels they're between missions. Anyone who wants to understand why the most important part of building a company might actually be the time you spend before you even know what you're building.00:00- Trailer01:06- Aditya's journey to starting SPC after Facebook & Dropbox 03:48- A “learning club” for people in figuring-out stage06:23- 3 Northstars of the SPC community07:02- How SPC evolved from a community to a fund10:32- Not everyone should be a founder11:51- 1% selection rate13:53- Building conviction in 1 of 3 outcomes16:36- SPC is at PMF stage18:38- Mismatch of traditional VC's v/s rapid pace startups19:04- How AI has impacted investing at SPC26:32- How AI has changed VC firms29:02- Axis of curiosity replacing thesis30:17- Star Companies of SPC US33:34- Binny Bansal's role in starting SPC India37:16- Questions & confusions as founders in early stage39:50- Number of great entrepreneurs is NOT small41:49- Talent density in India vs Bay Area44:04- Founders don't need a culture of permission45:08- India tier 2 and 3 does invest heavily in AI46:11- AI is truly democratizing tech49:09- Math gives India advantage in AI51:48- A lot of science fiction is coming true-------------India's talent has built the world's tech—now it's time to lead it.This mission goes beyond startups.

Sequels! Savior of the film industry, or unkillable plague spawned in the deepest pits of Satan's realm? As ever, the answer is both! This week, John and El'Ahrai review "Zootopia 2" and "Black Phone 2"! Plus all the other stuff: newsbits, video picks, light arson. You should listen! Now see what you made me do!

The story of how Randall Ann Homan got her name is a unique one. In this episode, meet and get to know Randall and her partner, in life and in neon, Al Barna. Today, the couple are all about all things San Francisco neon. But we'll get to that. When Randall's dad was a teenager, he saved a young girl named Randall from drowning. After saving the little girl, he taught her to swim. Years later, when he had his own daughter, he carried the name forward. Randall Homan grew up in Goodyear, Arizona, just outside of Phoenix. The town was named for the tire company, and it was where, back in the day, the eponymous blimp lived when not in use. Randall has a fun story about being brushed by the Goodyear blimp's ropes when she was a kid. She considered her hometown "Nowheresville" and left as soon as she could—at 17, after graduating from high school early. Randall came straight to San Francisco to attend Lone Mountain College (the University of San Francisco today). "It was wild," she says about her time in the Seventies in The City. Art school is what brought both Randall and Al to San Francisco. At her school, there was a dorm where all the art students, including Randall, lived. Views out the window of that dorm were always completely foggy except for one thing—the neon sign at the Bridge Theater on Geary pierced that blanket of gray. It left a strong impression on them both. Rewinding a bit, Randall says that there was a little neon in her hometown of Goodyear, and she was fascinated by it. She was interested in how it worked, but also was drawn to the beauty of the colored light. When I ask Randall whether she ever left San Francisco after her initial move here, she rewinds a little bit to talk about how young they both were when she and Al met. "Cupid hit us both square in the heart," she says. But they wanted to see the rest of the country. They both wanted to visit where the other is from (Al came here from Pennsylvania), but they compromised on New Orleans. They were drawn to NOLA by the music, and they sure did see a lot of that. But getting jobs was a different story. That didn't come easy in "the Big Easy," and so they came back. They've been in their San Francisco apartment for 30-plus years, and they're not going anywhere. As mentioned, Al comes from Pennsylvania, specifically the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre northeast area of the state. It was coal country, but young Al wanted to pursue art. And so he came to The City to go to the San Francisco Art Institute (RIP). It was 1976, and even though he was in college, Al never intended to stay longer than a year or two. The Beats influenced Al, and though San Francisco figures largely in their history, so does travel. But he and Randall were here during the so-called Season of the Witch—1978. Randall is quick to point out how much easier it was to move within The City back then, something they did every six months or so for a stretch. I ask them to rattle off the different neighborhoods, and they oblige me: Lower Nob Hill, North Beach, and The Mission figure prominently, among others. Al goes into a little more detail about how the two met. It was at a going-away party for a mutual friend. For him, that first meeting settled it. Randall was about to go to school in Los Angeles, and Al decided to join her down south. After a couple years at SFAI, Al left school to work for a film company, where he did a lot more learning. He was taking lots of photos, and it wasn't until Randall pointed out the abundance of neon signs in the backgrounds of his pictures that Al picked up on it. In addition to LA, they also spent some time in Flagstaff, Arizona, where they both got jobs at a silk screen company. Randall also got a job working for a sign painter whose hands were too shaky for his craft. The work she did painting signs left a big impression on Randall, and you can see it in her love of old neon signs today. Between the Eighties and early 2000s, they each worked in their respective crafts—photography for Al, and graphic design for Randall. Al worked for several decades for the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco (the parent org for the de Young and Legion of Honor museums). He shares a story of helping prevent a bomb from exploding at the old de Young museum building, just before it was scheduled to be demolished anyway. Randall's graphic design work had her, among other jobs, designing album covers for bands. She did show posters, logos, and branding—work she still engages in to this day. In the Nineties, she designed the cover page for one of the Bay Guardian Best of The Bay issues. Eventually, the two decided to create a book all about neon. Putting together that first book—San Francisco Neon: Survivors and Lost Icons—took five years. We'll talk in more depth about that and their other, more recent projects in Part 2. We end Part 1 with the story of how neon became the central focus of both Al's and Randall's lives. It involved a sign in the Mission that was there one day and gone the next. Check back Thursday for Part 2 with Randall and Al. We recorded this podcast at Mario's Bohemian Cigar Store in North Beach in November 2025. Photography by Nate Oliveira

This week on Office Hours with EAB, we sit down with the National Education Opportunity Network (NEON) to discuss the innovative work they're doing to expand college access for students in Title I high schools. NEON's model brings college-credit courses and academic support directly into classrooms through a coordinated team of university faculty, teaching fellows, and high school educators. We explore how this approach strengthens the transition to college, boosts enrollment and persistence, and why a growing number of universities are joining the effort.

W najnowszej Mellinie gościem jest Radosław Bielecki z Neonówki. Kabareciarz, który swoimi występami rozśmiesza całą Polskę przyznał, w rozmowie z Marcinem Mellerem, że w jego dzieciństwie często nie było miejsca na śmiech. Jego tata miał problem z używkami i zmarł w młodym wieku. Bielecki przyznaje, że te wydarzenia go zahartowały. Bielecki przyznał, że za "dobra Bogu, wal do sznura" powinienem dostać wyróżnienie za promowanie chrześcijaństwa. Radek Bielecki wyruszył w trasę koncertową promującą jego pierwszą autorską płytę pt. „To musi nam się udać”. Przyszedł w końcu czas aby wyciągnąć z szuflady dziesiątki autorskich tekstów, które zmuszają do refleksji nad życiem, nad kondycją światopoglądową naszego kraju, a to wszystko okraszone iście „neonówkowym” żartem.

If you're a startup selling to enterprises, understanding how a CIO discovers and evaluates you can change everything. Most founders believe that cold emails and polished decks drive attention, but Karthik Chakkarapani, CIO of Zuora shares that nearly 80% of the startups he evaluates are found through outbound - while researching solutions, through peers, or even on LinkedIn. For many startups, this alone can reshape how they think about go-to-market.How does an enterprise decide whether to buy from a startup or not? Karthik walks us through Zuora's three-step buying process. It starts with understanding the problem the startup solves and how quickly the product can show value. If the early signals are strong, the next step is a deeper look at ROI, integration, security and whether the company is mature enough to be a long-term partner. The final stage is legal and procurement, which is where many early-stage startups slow down.If you're building a startup, this episode offers a practical look into how CIOs think, how they make decisions and what it really takes to go from a first conversation to a signed contract.0:00 – Trailer0:53 – Buying process of startups05:19 – How Zuora's SaaS portfolio looked 2 years ago09:00 – Inbound vs outbound10:53 – How initial contact with potential customers works13:34 – Startups should be thought partners16:57 – How long it takes to create value for customers19:59 – Where startups draw the line in growth vs efficiency23:06 – Top 5 largest spends24:01 – Why only 1-year contracts for new AI startups?26:12 – Why legal & procurement struggle to understand startups29:46 – 20% of portfolio is 0–5 year old companies30:46 – Are startups not backed by VCs a red flag?34:29 – 60% in growth + 40% in day-to-day37:42 – Learnings from peer CIOs41:38 – Featurely: Case Study45:14 – Atomicwork: Case Study46:55 – Trupeer: Case Study47:51 – How Zuora uses OpenAI & Anthropic49:39 – How AI is helping personal productivity51:26 – How agents will be managed54:02 – Number of SaaS apps will go down, agents will go up55:45 – Building the right security for AI56:31 – India vs US: where founders are building from-------------India's talent has built the world's tech—now it's time to lead it.This mission goes beyond startups.

Julia is joined by artist and candlelight devotee Roxy Jamin for an illuminating episode examining The Big Light. Together, the girlies explore how modern LED lighting and the death of neon have slowly divorced us from nature, mystery, and the romance of the hearth, while keeping us trapped in a world of endless noon. Digressions include the shame of using an Instagram Reel as a flashlight, the false promise of a pink drill, and the occasional need to admire the Amish.

Second verse….just like the first! BAM! … Another Double Movie Review! The Boyz loved the last double feature movie review so they decided to do it ALL OVER AGAIN! First up, kinetic visualist @edgarwright brings us the second adaption of “The Running Man”. Written by Stephen King (under a pseudonym of Richard Bachman) and famously adapted in 1987 to the screen starring one Arnold Schwarzenegger, Cupcake and WillDaBeast answer the question on everyone's mind: Not “Is Glen Powell STILL a thing?” but “Is this true-to-story adaptation better than AH'nuld's”? Next: The director of the smashing successful Neon releases “LongLegs” and “The Monkey” returns with the folk horror chamberpiece (Editor's note: Can we ban this term from the show? Dislike!). Standout actors Tatiana Maslany and Rossif Sutherland act in a slow-burn horror Grimm Fairy Tale-esque thriller. But are all the “WTF”s and mystery imagery shenanigans worth the punchline?

A presença brasileira voltou a estremecer Hollywood nesta semana. Depois que a Academia de Artes e Ciências Cinematográficas divulgou nas redes sociais uma foto de Wagner Moura no Governors Awards, o público fez história, novamente: foram mais de 156 mil comentários, um número que superou, de longe, as reações dedicadas a outras grandes estrelas da noite. Cleide Klock, correspondente da RFI em Los Angeles Esse mar de engajamento, que havia acontecido também no ano passado com a foto de Fernanda Torres, marcou simbolicamente o início da campanha “para valer” de Moura nos Estados Unidos. Um dia antes de ir à festa, ele conversou com a RFI e já falava do poder dos brasileiros nas redes sociais. “Eu estava com a Nanda [Fernanda Torres] no Governors Awards ano passado. Eu lembro da gente conversando ali e lembro dela falando assim: 'eu não tirei a foto ainda, vou lá tirar'. A foto da Nanda teve um milhão de likes. As fotos de todas as estrelas americanas que estavam lá não tiveram nem um milésimo do que ela teve. Eu acho maravilhoso!", lembrou o protagonista de “O Agente Secreto”. Wagner Moura agora vê a história se repetir no engajamento e no favoritismo do filme de Kleber Mendonça Filho na categoria de produção internacional. Após finalizar uma temporada teatral no Brasil, o ator desembarcou em Los Angeles e já iniciou uma agenda intensa de campanha para o Oscar. Paralelamente, como é padrão na temporada, ele também faz campanha para o Globo de Ouro, Critics' Choice e demais premiações dos sindicatos que moldam o rumo da corrida. “Fiquei um tempo afastado dessa parte. Kleber Mendonça Filho viajou muito, e agora estou totalmente comprometido com isso. É muito bom, porque você senta com os outros atores, escuta seus colegas também de outros lugares, que fizeram outros filmes maravilhosos esse ano. Isso é uma troca muito boa. Você poder ouvir outras pessoas, de outras latitudes no mundo, falando do seu filme. Estamos aqui nos Estados Unidos, e depois vou para muitos países europeus, Inglaterra, Itália, Espanha, França. É campanha, é isso, é viajar e falar do filme pelo mundo”, diz. A perna cabeluda Nesta última semana, Wagner Moura participou da primeira sessão paga de “O Agente Secreto” em território americano. No dia 26 o filme entra em circuito comercial nos Estados Unidos. O ator também comentou quais são as conversas mais frequentes após as sessões. “Eu acho muito engraçadas as perguntas sobre a perna cabeluda. A primeira vez que eu ouvi falar da perna cabeluda foi na música de Chico Science, que inclusive é a música que eu botei na abertura do Marighella, que diz que 'Galeguinho do Coque não tinha medo da perna cabeluda'. Só agora, trabalhando com o Kleber, fui entender que a perna cabeluda virou uma lenda urbana no Recife porque jornalistas, para driblar a censura, em vez de denunciar a brutalidade policial, diziam que quem tinha feito aquelas coisas havia sido essa perna saltitante. Ela virou notícia no jornal e as pessoas trancavam a porta da casa por medo da perna cabeluda", explicou o ator. “É muito bom isso, você ver um pedaço do seu país sendo mostrado. Acho muito importante que o público fora do Brasil veja aquilo, mas acho mais importante que nós brasileiros também vejamos. Não consigo entender ainda a lógica de quem não acha que o governo deveria apoiar a cultura, de que a cultura não é uma coisa importante para o desenvolvimento do país. Fico querendo ver algum argumento", reitera. Favoritismo Wagner não é apenas favorito nas redes: as listas iniciais de possíveis indicados a melhor ator ao Oscar 2026 já colocam o ator brasileiro ao lado de nomes como Ethan Hawke (Blue Moon), Leonardo DiCaprio (Uma Batalha Após a Outra), Timothée Chalamet (Marty Supreme) e Michael B. Jordan (Pecadores). Mas foi a atualização mais recente do The Hollywood Reporter que surpreendeu até os fãs mais otimistas. Wagner Moura aparece como o número 1 entre os favoritos. “Mostra que você está num momento muito bonito da trajetória como artista, tendo esse tipo de reconhecimento. Essa indicação ainda não veio e não gosto de ficar falando disso, mas é maravilhoso. É um filme brasileiro, um ator brasileiro. Eu acho maneiro. Na Bahia, o pessoal tem orgulho”, brinca. O filme "O Agente Secreto" não nasceu para entrar na corrida do Oscar, mas do desejo de entregar um filme sólido, impactante, com identidade brasileira e potência universal. Quando um trabalho é feito com essa qualidade, o Oscar deixa de ser um objetivo distante e passa a ser uma consequência possível. Mas envolve muitas camadas, entre elas a de ter um distribuidor poderoso, como a Neon, que aposta na campanha nos Estados Unidos. “Já fiz tanto filme. Fiz muito filme ruim, sempre com o intuito de fazer bem, mas é difícil. Quando vem um bom, você fica querendo que aquilo esteja nas discussões, nas conversas, como 'O Agente Secreto' está. Não digo que o Oscar é um sonho, mas é claro que às vezes você pensa que o filme poderia estar ali. Já fiz alguns filmes em que pensei nisso, como o próprio 'Tropa de Elite', o 'Guerra Civil', que foi um filme que fiquei muito surpreso de ter passado batido, no ano passado, na premiação dos Oscars”, lamenta. O reconhecimento crítico, o carinho do público e a empolgação dos brasileiros que têm um engajamento sem igual em qualquer lugar do mundo, apenas aceleraram um movimento que já está em curso, apesar de ter ainda muito chão pela frente e muita coisa pode acontecer no meio do caminho. A festa do Oscar acontece em 15 de março. “Eu gostei tanto de fazer 'O Agente Secreto', foi uma coisa tão importante para mim, e as pessoas gostam dele. Então, para mim, para Kleber, é incrível a gente poder estar falando, viajando o mundo, conversando com as pessoas, ouvindo o tipo de pergunta que as pessoas fazem sobre o filme em diferentes partes do mundo, sobre a cultura brasileira, de Pernambuco, do Recife, do Nordeste. É maravilhoso", resume Wagner Moura.

In this episode I sit down with Ivan, the newly appointed CEO of Neon Labs, a serial‑founder with six exits and a deep background in infrastructure, distributed systems and Web3. We explore how Neon Labs is tackling the challenge of running an EVM on Solana, what “network extensions” mean and why this matters for builders, founders and the entire ecosystem. We also dig into tokenization, open‑source business models and where the infrastructure layer of Web3 is heading. Whether you're building a protocol, debating chain choice or simply trying to understand what's next, there's plenty to unpack here.Key Learnings (with timestamps)00:02:00 – Ivan's background: from engineer to startup founder to now leading Neon Labs.00:04:00 – Early Web3 attempt: building a multimedia messaging/email platform on Ethereum in 2017.00:07:00 – What Neon Labs is solving: bringing EVM execution to Solana via a network extension rather than a traditional L2 or side‑chain.00:10:00 – Advantages and challenges of this architecture: speed, composability, using Solana's consensus & block‑space.00:12:00 – Chain choice argument: historically Solana for speed vs Ethereum for liquidity. How this is shifting.00:16:00 – Infrastructure costs of new chains: indexing, database/storage overhead, tooling.00:18:00 – Vision: network extensions as the next wave of infrastructure—purpose‑built execution environments plugging into a main chain.00:22:00 – Neon Labs' focus areas: acquisition of ZK team, privacy‑scalability via off‑chain computation and proofs.00:39:00 – Advice for builders & founders: build in public + join community/super‑teams + focus on solving real infrastructure problems.00:42:00 – Neon's current status & ask: financially stable, not actively raising now, looking for builders, early users and collaborators.DisclaimerNothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research.

After 20+ years at some of the most important Silicon Valley tech companies like Yahoo, LinkedIn, Oracle, Informix and NerdWallet, Bhaskar today leads investment of enterprise infrastructure companies at 8 VC.Bhaskar Ghosh spent 20+ years at some of the most important Silicon Valley tech companies before moving into venture capital as a Partner at 8VC.After completing his PhD in computer science from Yale, he worked across Yahoo, LinkedIn, Oracle, Informix and NerdWallet. He brings this experience to founders building the next generation of enterprise infrastructure companies.In this episode Bhaskar explains how IT services are being reimagined for India, a country that over the last 25 years turned its skilled workforce into a global services engine. We discuss the shift happening inside workflows most people do not think about: mid-office ops, call centers, insurance, travel and HR. These are areas where thousands of people move information every day, and where AI is now good enough to take over entire workflows.Bhaskar talks about the founders already building in this space, including those buying traditional services companies and rebuilding them with AI at the core. He also explains why this new wave will not behave, scale or be valued like SaaS, because this is no longer pure software. It is the reinvention of services.If you are a founder making engineering decisions, someone curious about the less visible layers of software, or interested in people who move technology forward, this conversation with Bhaskar is for you.00:00 –Trailer03:03 – How India will reimagine IT services (TCS, Infosys)04:32 – “why now” of services06:07 – How unstructured data became easier to handle?07:53 – What LLMs can do today with high precision10:35 – Use of GenAI will increase margins in services11:54 – Front & mid offices will become more productive and lean14:30 – Will a pure services business scale anymore?15:55 – Legacy service businesses + AI-first software20:04 – Real challenge to operate and scale such businesses20:33 – 3 reasons on why SaaS companies get higher multiples?22:06 – Network-effect players win big in SaaS24:18 – Replacing software v/s replacing services26:16 – Business without inherent network effects (yet)28:22 – Is AI unlocking TAM larger than Software era?30:57 – How prosperity of a country influences growth of Co's32:50 – India's tech talent is key to India-US corridor39:36 – Deeply disruptive AI Co's will come from India43:04 – How new-age AI services companies of India should grow in US?44:39 – Current BPOs have an unfair advantage47:21 – Will older BPOs understand the importance of AI?49:22 – A Moat in outcome-based pricing can replace old businesses51:50 – Has the US ever been sensitive to cost?55:23 – The new AI-enabled services have a Palantir-risk flavour58:47 – Where to build when model Co's eat forward & backward revenue?01:06:10 – What type of founding teams are needed?01:08:10 – How founders think about GTM is changing-------------India's talent has built the world's tech—now it's time to lead it.This mission goes beyond startups.

130 IPOs from over 400 startups. IVP is now in its 18th fund, with companies like Perplexity, Glean, Slack, Figma, Twitter, Uber, and Abridge in its portfolio. Somesh Dash, general partner at the 45-year-old firm, has been part of IVP for more than 20 years.We start with something we are both passionate about, building in the US-India corridor. Somesh talks about the group of people who put the silicon in Silicon Valley, the immigrants. From Andy Grove to Elon Musk to Chennai-born Aravind Srinivas.He recalls the first time he met Aravind at a WeWork, when Perplexity had just 20 employees and a beta product or how Dylan (Founder of Figma) had the vision nobody else had on the future of design, way before ai. The early signals Somesh saw in these founders, long before any signs of massive success were visible. He also talks about the companies they missed, giants like DoorDash, OpenAI, and Anthropic.Though this seasoned investor truly believes in AI, he says the sector is due for a correction. The bubble will burst. Most Gen 1.0 AI companies are unlikely to reach billion-dollar valuations or go public. But as always in tech, the lessons from this first wave will shape Gen 2.0 companies. And the teams that understand and adapt from this early wave will build the next generation of successful AI companies. Also, when the bubble bursts, that's the time to invest.

DIY Racers, Disco Beavers & Flaming NeonsWelcome back to Everyone Racers, the podcast that celebrates the weird, wonderful, and downright ridiculous world of low-dollar endurance racing. In this Bristol Episode 411; Tim takes a seaplane visit to a Rum distillery, he loves you guys and wishes he was there. But is attending to his sunburn and whiskey drink. Chris spends his weekend with construction, mowing and house work because his mic is broken. Chrissy plasters on a smile while working 14 hour hot days, deals with a few angry people, but mostly happy ones. Mental breaks the Skinny Koyote Race truck and goes karting. Tom's resting judge face hammers all the miscreant Texas racers into submission. While Jan, as it turns out, knows lots of stuff about racing and not dying, despite being female. So maybe listen…Really this week, Mental, Chrissy and Chris welcome special guests Tom and Jan Webb, award-winning LeMons racers and garage legends who share their insane stories from the field — including:

When Shreesha Ramdas left Medallia after a $6.5B acquisition he decided it was time to reinvent.At his 4th startup Lumber, before writing a single line of code, he hired a sales person and ran 200+ interviews across the industry to understand the real pain points. The interviews gave Shreesha the insight that though payments were a problem, it was neither big enough nor urgent. But it was very difficult to hire workers, and even more difficult to retain skilled craft workers. In the U.S alone 41% of construction workers will retire in the next six years, leaving a massive gap in talent and experience. As a big believer in vitamin vs. painkiller, Shreesha is now building where the pain is deepest. We discuss what truly needs to happen before building a startup, the foundation that will shape everything that follows. From his days at Yodlee during the dot-com boom to leading StrikeDeck and selling it to Medallia, he is now building again with clarity and intent for one of the most traditional industries: construction.  But here's one thing that probably tells you more about Shreesha than the companies he has built and scaled.

There are reviews in this show: "Blue Moon" and "Good Boy". There is speculation about the just-announced "Gremlins 3". There are home video picks. And leavened through is the commentary from El'Ahrai and John you've come to expect. Step into the Neon Movie Bunker, and bring a friend. There's a family with kids. Do the kids first and make the mother watch. Tell her you'll stop if she can hold back her tears. I *owe* her that.

You rarely meet someone who has built and sold five companies. Sachin Aggarwal is now building his sixth, Stackgen. The depth of lessons from someone who has been through that journey five times and still chooses to build again is simply unmatched. Even after five successful exits, he still builds like a first-time founder. He studies every new domain from scratch, speaks to 60 or 70 people before committing to an idea, and surrounds himself with people who are smarter than him. What stood out most is his mindset. That is what truly sets him apart. We have always been told that time is money, but he believes timing is money. Founders should time everything, including their exits because the best startups are always bought, not sold. From building his first company during the Asian Financial Crisis in Indonesia, to creating a healthcare startup that grew with Obamacare, to pioneering cloud security before it became mainstream, Sachin has mastered the art of timing. 0:00 – Trailer0:46 – From KPMG to becoming an entrepreneur2:05 – Why the best startups are bought, not sold4:30 – Does luck play a role in repeated success?5:24 – Why is timing money?6:46 – Exit at $8M ARR in just 18 months8:10 – The first exit that gave financial freedom10:14 – 26-year-old who bought an Indonesian Co.12:42 – What drives repeat founders?13:53 – Co's are either Born secure or they're not19:40 – Founders must master timing21:24 – How tech-savvy should a tech founder really be?22:35 – The right way to time your exits27:07 – How to observe new markets to build?28:30 – The process behind starting a company29:32 – How to find the right co-founders?31:53 – What really builds trust?33:05 – What founders learn building across industries35:25 – How Stackgen's founders met43:36 – Industries with the best Timing today44:41 – Where should young founders build?48:06 – Winning InMobi as a customer51:11 – What AI agents are doing at Stackgen55:14 – How Stackgen could be a billion-dollar opportunity?=-------------India's talent has built the world's tech—now it's time to lead it.This mission goes beyond startups.

Neon glows, steel shines, and the floor hums with V8 heartbeat as we step inside the Hemi Hideout for a guided tour through one of the most captivating Mopar collections in Texas. We move car by car, blending hard facts with honest reactions—why an aero-wild Superbird reshaped NASCAR, how a numbers-matching Super Bee earns reverence, and where a properly built restomod Cuda proves that drivability and drama can live under the same Shaker hood.We share the stories that make these machines feel alive. A violet 1970 Road Runner convertible exits a riverbed after 25 years and returns as a numbers-matching gem. A 1947 Dodge Power Wagon scores 996 out of 1000 and closes its doors with refrigerator solidity. A 1969 Coronet R/T convertible gets a 528 Hemi and triple carbs, while a Pink Panther Challenger and a chameleon '37 Plymouth coupe show how attitude and engineering come together in Pro Street form. Production numbers, engine codes, and rare color combos turn into small epiphanies—one Go Mango Super Bee is one of only 32 with its configuration, and just four exist in the registry today.Between spark and story, we widen the lens to community and the market. Charity open houses turn $10 tickets into doubled donations. Cruise nights, coffee meets, and holiday toy drives invite everyone to pull up and talk cars. And when talk shifts to tariffs, we unpack why a 25% headline rarely becomes a 25% price hike, explaining how transaction values, content rules, and dealer variability shape what buyers actually pay. It's a full-spectrum ride: history, hardware, community, and clarity.Love muscle car history, NASCAR lore, and the art of a great restomod? Tap play, then tell us your pick from the Hemi Hideout lineup. If this tour revs your engine, follow the show, share with a friend, and drop a review so more enthusiasts can find the ride.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.
