Why Join The Library of Minds as a Guest
Cross-Discipline Builder Audience
You reach founders, investors, and operators who follow episodes like HubSpot's $20B journey, DoorDash's origin story, and Reddit's scaling playbook.
Operator-to-Operator Deep Dives
You sit for a focused interview that mirrors episodes with Sequoia, Canva & Hinge investors, and Lyft's founder-built around your real decisions, not surface-level talking points.
Expert Guest Roster Credibility
You stand alongside leaders behind Opendoor, Amplitude, Robinhood, DoorDash, and HubSpot, reinforcing your authority in business, entrepreneurship, science, and culture.
Episode Plus Digital Mind
You get both a flagship interview and a persistent Digital Mind on Delphi so listeners can keep asking you questions long after the episode airs.
Episode Angles & Guest Pitches
From First Idea to Category Leader
Walk listeners through how you went from zero to a durable business, product, or movement-warts, wrong turns, and all.
Your Mental Models for Bets and Tradeoffs
Deconstruct how you make high-stakes calls on markets, product, people, and capital so builders can borrow your decision frameworks.
Building in the Age of AI and Automation
Share how AI is reshaping your field and what builders should do now to stay ahead of the curve.
Culture, Resilience, and the Human Side of Scale
Explore how you've navigated culture, crisis, and personal resilience while building or backing ambitious companies.
How You'd Contribute to the Show
