Description
Two friends from the internet try to make sense of what startup culture is doing to the world. Carly Rector is a software engineer and startup founder. Each week, she discusses current events with Teresa Kramer, TTRPG product manager and semi-professional voice actor. Their shared history lets them bridge the gap between online creative communities and the tech world with an empathetic but critical perspective.
