I’ve dropped off from listening to so many podcasts but I keep back to you guys cause of the quality and consistency of these episodes. Keep it going! 🚀
Chairman over CEO ✅✅✅ "I don't want their job because I can run multiple companies as a Chairman". A man needs to open his mouth once to reveal how big he really is. Kudos, Mr Kevin Ryan!
This was an amazing chat. Very insightful. The way Kevin simplifies complicated topics is very impressive. Short and concise answers addressing every part of the question. Thanks guys for this.
I appreciate you guys so much! The things I get exposed to through this podcast are life changing. At the end of some of these I get a similar feeling to the aftermath of an awesome UFC card. Great work guys! Super inspiring!
Phenomenal interview! As great as the guest was, i have to say you guys asked *excellent* questions and did a great job of getting out of the way and letting him answer. Also, amazing job of keeping it light while not letting the laughs overshadow the business part. *1 new subscriber*
This is probably one of my best mfm episodes, if not the best! Gotta listen to this episode over again, too many gems dropped by the guest. 💎💎💎💎💎 Great job guys!!
The conversation between Kevin Ryan and Sam Altman is engaging and informative. They discuss a wide range of topics, including the importance of hiring fast, the value of investing in growth, and the importance of having a clear vision for your company.
Insightful interview, and it's fascinating to learn how successful entrepreneurs like this billionaire founder think and find those billion-dollar business ideas. Thanks for having this kind of content, really appreciates it.
This chat has been truly exceptional, offering profound insights. Kevin's ability to simplify complex subjects is genuinely impressive. Thank you both for this valuable interaction.
the thrill of innovation, the opportunity to solve problems, and the chance to create something new and valuable. As for choosing from unique website options, it can indeed be challenging, but remember that your decision should align with your specific goals and audience, so take your time to evaluate which one resonates best with your content and objectives - it's all about finding the right fit for your vision!
Best episode yet - my kids and I listen on the way to their high school; I'm a techie turned VC and - super biased - work with Kevin Ryan :D. Amazing episode, so glad Kevin came on the pod!
I am always listening to your podcast; You guys are so great, and I feel like I too always have ideas that come to my head naturally. I don't do research on ideas, they just come to me organically. I haven't acted on most of them, but I was wondering if there are people who pay for ideas or if there was a way to turn it into a business? I feel like this is a talent I have overlooked my entire life. I have so many ideas I have written over the years and never acted on them and boom, I find out someone did and they are successful... Are there people out there in need of someone like me? LOL
