The cutting room floor podcast
If you do it through a SPAC, you can provide forward projections. The big advantage for SPACs appears to be in the disclosure rules if you go public through IPO, you can't do forward projections.
SPACS (did a deep dive on the craziness of CCIV here) The podcast went a lot of different areas and these notes aren't meant to be definitive just figured I'd share because I had already done a lot of work prepping them! Below are some stream of thought notes I had for all of them again, these were just notes I had going into the podcast. There were four areas in particular I wanted to hit in the podcast / had prepped for: SPACs, Chamath, Getting Better as an Investor, and Current market environment / Special Sits. Still, I think it went well, and there were a ton of things in the preparation that have been rambling around my head for a while that I wanted to write about. With that anxiety in mind, I probably overprepared for the podcast (poor Bill had to deal with multiple DMs prepping for the podcast and a two page long possible topics / notes email). That length and how much I've enjoyed past episodes played to a ton of my fears and insecurities (can I keep a conversation going that long? Will I bore listeners to death after thirty minutes? How the heck can I compare to the Dan McMurtrie interview, perhaps my favorite pod of 2020? Will I just start rambling and embarrass myself an hour into the podcast?). I've really enjoyed all of the past episodes of the Business Brew, but his podcast format is ~2 hour long conversation. Still, even though I love rambling, I also have a wicked fear of being unprepared and/or boring. So I love going on other people's podcasts because I can flip the script and generally ramble about whatever's on my mind I don't think I've ever rejected an invitation (hint hint if you're considering inviting me on something!).
But because I love the sound of my own voice, one of the toughest things about being the host of YAVP has been just shutting up and listening / letting the guest drive the conversation (I think the biggest mistake I made in the first few episodes was injecting my thoughts / analysis too much as a host, I want to push back and ask interesting questions but my role is to let the guest shine). Whenever I make a speech at a wedding, I always start off by saying, "This is going to be difficult for me, because I hate being the center of attention" and pause for laughter from the people who know me and thus know how silly that statement is. Bill told me it will be released in a few weeks, and I'll be sure to link to it when it comes out. I taped an episode of the Business Brew last night (it was something of a " home and home" podcast, as Bill had come on YAVP a few months ago).
