In this episode, I speak with Garrett McCurrach, Co-founder and CEO of Pipedream Labs, a company building a network of underground tubes that offers near-instantaneous delivery of objects to and from homes and businesses. He's taking one of the biggest swings and building one of the most futuristic companies that I've ever seen; creating a series of underground pipes that send RC robots whizzing through carrying payloads of goods to do hyperlogistics in cities. We discuss the technical, regulatory, and logistical challenges of Pipedream, why he is trying to transform last mile logistics, and how consumption patterns could dramatically shift if you could get almost anything instantaneously to your door.
