Non-Technica‪l‬ Alexis Gay

This week, Alexis gets non-technical with Zak Kukoff, VC at General Catalyst. They talk about how Zak got himself banned (and unbanned!) from this very show, why there’s no such thing as too many Livestrong bracelets, what my physical therapist has in common with Zak’s grandma, and whether his DMs are open for combat.

You can find Zak on Twitter @zck and Alexis at @yayalexisgay and @NonTechnicalPod.
