Alright, enough of the small talk, it's time to get down to business! The guys bring on heavy-hitting venture capitalist Kobie Fuller to start pitching their business ideas so that they can start to hone one in. 
Kobie is a General Partner at Upfront Ventures, the former CMO of REVOLVE, the Chairman and Co-founder of Valence Community, an investor in numerous start-ups including Oculus VR, and a board member of too many companies to list.
