Customer Reviews
Adam Zhu
Great content but poorly made as a video podcast.
Too insiderish
I was hoping to learn more of the story and insights behind company founders and the genesis of ventures but lime the other reviewer noted the interviewer seems to be more interested in personally relating to the guest than asking questions that would be on viewers' minds. Also he shouldn't go to the trouble of having a nice set and production value and then let his glasses sit in front of his eyes so you can't see them.
Very informative
I love it!
