I can save you months of figuring this out on your own. These podcasts shaped how I think, how I build, and how I approach vibe coding as a business. Listen to these. Pick one thing from each. Actually do it. You’ll be months ahead of where you are right now. By tomorrow. 1. The Koerner Office: “We Tried Building a Money-Making App in Under an Hour” (Ep. #246) Start here. Watch what’s possible. They go from nothing to a working app with no code in under an hour. This is the episode that made me think, if they can do this, I can do this. 2. The Startup Ideas Podcast: “How I Use Obsidian + Claude Code to Run My Life” Before you build anything else, listen to this. Vin walks through using Obsidian as a second brain alongside Claude Code. This changed everything for me. If your project has any depth at all, you need a system to capture your research, your decisions, your bugs, your progress. Without it you’re re-explaining your project to AI every single session and losing hours. Obsidian is the single biggest upgrade to my workflow and it’s free. 3. The Koerner Office: “He Gave an AI $200. It Built Him a $100K Business in 13 Days” (Ep. #284) This will rewire how you think about what’s possible right now. Not in 5 years. Right now. 4. The Startup Ideas Podcast: “AI Marketing Masterclass: From Beginner to Expert in 60 Minutes” James Dickerson builds a complete marketing system live from the terminal using Claude Code. Not a tutorial about concepts. He actually builds it while you listen. This taught me more about real workflows than anything else I’ve consumed. 5. AI and I: “Inside Claude Code From the Engineers Who Built It” Straight from Anthropic. The engineers who built Claude Code explain what it is and why it works the way it does. After this one I changed how I prompt and how I think about what the tool can actually do. If Claude Code is your main tool, you need to hear from the people who made it. Bonus: My First Million: “The Savannah Bananas’ Rise to a $1B Empire”

What's the app you keep thinking about but haven't started yet? The one that lives in the back of your head. Drop it below. No idea is too small or too ambitious

I have Zero coding background. Zero tech experience. I ran an auto shop and worked in healthcare. Then I discovered vibe coding. Today I’ve built a dental field sales CRM, an auto shop management platform, a receipt parser sorter and tracker, and now working on a gym management system. All with Claude Code, Cursor, Supabase, Firestore etc. Because of AI. All of these for people I’ve found within a few handshakes of my personal circle. I started this community because “how to vibe code an app” was easy to find, but someone who taught the art of making money from that was nearly non existent. All fluff and fancy words, not how to. Well here I want to work on the How to. What is your goal with vibe coding? What are you hoping to accomplish?

What’s your number 1 thing you want to learn about first?

Vibe coding is so new and so wild west that it’s tempting to just push the limits. See what you can build. See what you can add. The list is nearly endless. Before I shipped anything successful, I’d be working on a project and go, oh that’s cool, let me add that. Oh that feature looks great, let me throw that in too. And this. And this. And this.and on and on. Soon I’d have these massive files packed with features. Then I’d find one bug and it would cascade. Feature after feature breaking because everything was tangled together like balls of string that were just thrown together. This is technical debt and it made the apps nearly unusable. And I couldn’t figure out how to dig myself out. I had to scrap and start over. And it was hard to learn because… I did it More than once. The lesson: with vibe coding today, an important question to answer is not what are you going to build. It’s what are you NOT going to build. Because when you can do anything it’s tempting to do everything. What’s a lesson you’ve learned the hard way?
