    Huge fan of the in-person Tuesday dinners! I think there's something interesting to be said for the fact that the dinners were informal, over food/drink, totally unrecorded, and in person. There's a level of candor (and friendly debate!) that you can get to in that setting that's tough to get to over a podcast or over Zoom.

      nice post! startup-within-a-startup is always tough, but it seems like making the team as much like a startup as possible (in every way) is the right approach.

        Appreciate it Max! We definitely had some challenges initially, but going into full startup mode helped us get way deeper with users and iterate more quickly
