It's a wrap! Season 1 of our A-Team Mini Series has come to an end. In this episode, we share some behind the behind the scenes along with Cory (our video producer). This was filmed back in May 2023 and so much has evolved since we filmed this already. When we filmed this, we were just starting out on YouTube, had no idea what our channel would turn into. At this stage, we hadn't pitched any sponsors so far, but knew there was a way we could partner with software companies and share some of our Top Picks with viewers of the podcast. Listen in to our conversation around our hopes for this channel, what we don't want it to turn into and some of our motivations for creating the mini-series in the first place!

P.S. Leave us a comment on YouTube if you want us to record an updated behind the scenes with our learnings from securing sponsors, editing, posting, and figuring out our business model around this channel!

This is the story of how we tried investing in Arc Browser (Chrome competitor built by the team at The Browser Company). In this episode, we bring you along the journey of getting on Josh Miller's radar (CEO) and give you a look into the DM's and phone calls with him that led to more than 3 failed attempts at investing.

If you're also a fan of Arc Browser, or are just interested in seeing what it takes to invest in a startup that doesn't want your money, this is sure to bring a smile to your face. The journey of investing in Arc has involved persistence, convincing, and even some tears. Come along the ride with us!

Watch this before you start angel investing 👀 When we first had the opportunity to angel invest in a tech startup, we knew nothing about "how to angel invest". This led us to speaking to many angel investors, venture capitalists, and watching dozens of videos on the topic. Since then, we've gotten tons of questions from others who are looking to learn more about angel investing. This episode covers the most frequently asked questions about angel investing and how to become an angel investor. Grab a coffee & enjoy!
