Rate ShowA goldmine of knowledge
The Startup Podcast is a goldmine of knowledge, it's well worth a listen regardless of what stage startup you work in. Easy and engaging listening that's guaranteed to help you learn a thing or two.
Aussie voices describing global startup
It’s great to have an Australian voice and perspective in relation to the start of culture. Far too many podcasts are US focused. Yaniv and Chris describe the start-up ecosystem in great detail and make it relatable for Australian businesses.

My favourite podcast as a Founder
Listening to them is like having a mentor guide you through situations you will have to face as a Founder.
My favourite podcast!
Two brilliant minds talking about really useful topics for which they have uncanny expertise. Two somewhat different people who have the optimum balance of shared opinions. Definitely my favourite podcast!

Amazing Podcast
This podcast is energetic, easy to listen to and full of great insight. It gets to the point and says tough things that might not be easy to take on but need to be said. Keep it up Yaniv.

The best Startup Podcast out there
I have listened to many startup podcasts, and this one is by far the best. - a must for any founder. Yaniv and Chris break down what matters when starting a silicon-valley-style startup and many things you can directly apply to your business, product or company culture. I especially liked the recent episodes about Prioritization and the "VC Slaughterhouse." I recently started my first company, and if I am ever gonna be a successful entrepreneur, Yaniv and Chris will definitely have played a huge role in it. Thank you for doing this!!
Anyone can listen, especially if you aren’t a founder
I’m a business consultant as a digital product strategist and I get a lot from this podcast. The broad discussions I really appreciate and each episode I leaving quite inspired and motivated having taken a lot of ideas for how I can work better, and provide more value.
Timely latest episode for this founder and his startup
Great episode. It really spoke to the feeling I'm having around building our two-sided marketplace and growing aggressively so we can have our network effects kick in and really assist in taking things to another level for us and our model. It never made a ton of sense to me to go after revenue over growth for what we are doing given we are creating a new market in the same way uber created a new market with peer-to-peer in the existing A to B passenger transportation space. For both us and uber creating that new market that is working means execution of an aggressive growth strategy so as to OWN that new market before some else does. Yet I've had some VCs tell me we need to de-risk their investment for them by hitting certain revenue numbers. This always made me think, well 1 that means slow growth and risking someone else seeing our success and blowing past us on a market WE created! And two, it makes me ask why wouldn't i just use my own revenue to boot strap then? Why do I then need your money Mr VC guy?
Timely episode and very succinctly presented. Great job guys!

Lots of value
While I don’t always agree to the opinions of the hosts, I’m smart enough to apply the intentions to my own projects.
The content is great and there is always something of value to be gained.

Smart, to the point, inspiring, and entertaining content
I've been listening to these during my morning jogs for the last few months (as I work on setting up my next venture) and I've found myself stopping, getting out my phone and writing little snippets/ thoughts down in my notes (probably not great for my <5min/km run pace as I stop... but I am loving it).
Great for early stage founders
10/10!
As a first time founder, discovering this podcast was like finding a gold mine. It’s educational, inspiring, & entertaining. I’m left feeling energized and motivated after each episode and have learned so much in just a few episodes. Yaniv & Chris have so much knowledge & experience in the start up world it’s awesome to be able to listen in and soak up the incredible insight they have to offer.

Awesome insights with a no nonsense approach
As a consultant and educator, I listen to a lot of podcasts but rarely do I find one that captures my attention in every single episode. A straight forward sharing of information, insights and relevant experience to shed some light on the Silicon Valley style startup (for those of us who have only read about it). Yaniv & Chris have lived it. They are informative and entertaining and their guests add further value with their stories as well. This will be a "must listen to" resource for my Bachelaor of Business (Entrepreneurship) students for Trimester 1 2023 and beyond. Cant wait for Ep 2 for 2023. Keep up the great work guys.

A must for all founders.
This is one of the best podcasts for founders because of its no nonsense approach. These guys share the experience they had working at Uber and Google and bring in some high calibre guests. Top podcast in the genre for mine.

Brutal but thank God! 😜
Huge value! Building a high growth startup in Australia sometimes feels like hunting through the mist for information, and I often feel like my ideas are crazy. But your podcast makes me feel more normal and not like such an outlier. Thank you! Highly recommend your show 🚀

THE podcast for founders. !
I am not much of a Podcast person but this one is out of this world. Both Yaniv and Chris cover topics that I as a founder find superbly useful. Their delivery style is very engaging and somehow every episode has one or more Aha! moment(s). Almost like Magic ;)

A must for any entrepreneur!
Ive been listening to this podcast since the first episode. As a tech entrepreneur I’ve found every podcast to be a useful discussion starter for myself and within my team. Both Yaniv and Chris provide a balanced discussion coming at very common problems and situations from different angles. The great thing about this podcast are the discussions. They aren’t just agreeing with each other, in fact providing a safe space to actually hear different view points and experiences. I love the practicality of their discussions, as they provide useful tips and learnings that could be applied in my real situation and context.

High wisdom per word
Anyone vaguely in the business sector would benefit from listening to this, in my opinion. Not just startups. As a product manager, I find it helps me elevate my thinking to other functions or problems and focus on the interconnectivity of it all.
