You may or may not remember my podcast launched last year, called the Startup Game. I was very lucky to have on some brilliant guests and the premise was simple - talk to founders about the reality of running their business. I chatted with two founders at a time about their weekly activities running their businesses and we covered a large variety of topics and challenges. I also got some terrific feedback :-) We are in the process of setting up for the next season of The Startup Game and this time we are going on YouTube as well! The format will be changing slightly - I will be talking about a particular subject for about 15 minutes, and then I am going to have a chat with a founder for another 15 minutes. Why the change in format? Mainly, the issue was logistics - trying to get three very busy founders in the same place at the same time was a lot harder than I thought! And isn't that one of the biggest ironies of being your own boss - that it doesn't leave time for anything else than running it?! We also had some issues with the tech we were using - Riverside started off as a terrific option, but as we used it more, we ran into more and more instances of the files corrupting and sadly, some episodes got so corrupted we can't recover them. So this time, it is simpler, so we can get more episodes out without the drama. My team are working on a suitable podcast studio vibe, and I am putting the word out that I am looking for more brilliant founders to talk to. The format of the chat will remain about the realities of running a business - and yes, it will inevitably involve talking about white boards and networking! But one to one, I think we can have a much more interesting conversation and a great fun way to enter the weekend!
