    Matt Hartman is a partner at Betaworks Ventures, focused on investing in product-focused, seed-staged companies.

From his first podcast Doing Business, to his new, daily podcast TLDR Daily, Matt brings an incredibly thoughtful, strategic, and iterative approach to podcasting that enables him to ship quickly, learn often, and improve on the fly. Kind of like software.

From his early days of running t-shirts in his free time to building his own iconic agency and globally renowned brand, few have helped drive the culture of street wear to the heights that jeff has over the years. Now, he's also producing and hosting his own podcast, the Business of HYPE on HYPEBEAST Radio.

Plus, hear how jeff conducts his interviews by preparing for how he anticipates his audience will feel about the questions and answers he'll exchange with his guests.

    Megan Collins of Undressed and Style Girlfriend

    Megan Collins is the founder and CEO of Style Girlfriend and host of the podcast Undressed, a podcast that explores what it means to live your life with style. Megan and I talk about the moment in her career where she decided to leave her safe, comfy, full time job in advertising to go all-in on her side project, Style Girlfriend. Later, we explore what it means to dive in to the world of podcasting, previously coming from a world of writing and blogging. Megan shares what she believes to be some of the most important elements to having a successful podcast, like maintaining high production value and committing to a grueling, consistent creation schedule.
