Important topics covered in this week's pod ep: 1) Bootstrapping a startup. This might not seem like something a VC would encourage, but anyone who's read my book knows it's one of the first things I cover b/c it's an important strategy to take seriously. ipl.vc/p88tm

Is the VC pace picking back up or is the momentum just a January bump? It's probably too early to say there's a trend, but it's starting to feel like we're back in 4th/5th gear. @Mikeyjrog & I discuss on this week's pod ep. ipl.vc/p78tm
