Should founders stay and lead once their startup matures, or is it better to move on? In this episode, Michael, Eugene, and Jonathan dive into the tension between loyalty and growth, debating whether founders owe it to their team, investors, or users to remain at the helm. Can sticking around stifle creativity? What does it take to keep a company feeling like a startup?

Then in Thanks, Mom…, things get delightfully weird with the prompt: "parachute cactus". From inflatable seagull deterrents to robotic hazard removers and run-away snowboard safety equipment, the team pitches wild, imaginative ideas that are equal parts chaos and brilliance.

Fresh insights. Unfiltered takes. Startup energy, recharged.
