CastelloHouse ,

The best on all things start-up and tech. Not so good outside their areas of competence.

An excellent coffee conversation on all things tech and start-up in the US (which is most of it anyway). Less good when they stray onto personal soap boxes on politics etc.

Roman_G ,

Next time warn about the emotional rollercoaster!

I've been a huge fan of the All-In Podcast for over two years now. Sometimes I listen right away, and other times I catch up later.

The recent episode with Sheryl Sandberg really got to me. Besties, you have to warn us next time!

Startup CEOs cry only when they are compared to babies – you know, sleeping like babies, waking up every two hours and crying. Tearing up non-stop for almost the entire episode was an altogether new experience. Way too emotional. I definitely won't be watching “Screams Before Silence” movie – I barely made it through your episode.

Grifters

They love talking about intellectual honesty but all they are is a bunch of grifters that plug their companies and investments. Oh and Elon can do no wrong? I wonder why
