Awesome!
Love this podcast! Great guests and such interesting stories.
Well produced
Inspiring, thoughtful, entertaining and insightful!
Great stories and lessons for product people and more
I’ve been in product for over 20 years and have heard many podcasts and talks. This podcast is not only insightful and educational for anyone who builds product, it’s highly entertaining. Vidya and Heather are masterful interviewers, and Gibson Biddle as an inaugural guest was a perfect choice. He’s humble, thoughtful, smart, and such a good story teller. I highly recommend, and I’m looking forward to more episodes!
