Hey Craig,

I love podcasts, and as a matter of fact host one myself called Veni Vidi VC. Despite the shameless plug, I would love to hear from successful YC founders who have had exits.

The entire process is fascinating to me, including: - building a company - raising funds, and - making it ready to be absorbed as part of a corporation or better yet, becoming a public company

Infact, all founders from every startup in this list is interesting to me - https://mattermark.com/mattermark-startup-index-top-10-y-com....



K. Can you be more specific? Is it the post-exit stuff that's most interesting? Personally, I want to avoid telling stories that have already been widely documented.


Okay, if you want to focus on completely untold stories I believe every stories from every startup from Seed to Series A is interesting. For example - the process of figuring out a mission, testing out a product market fit, and pivoting to a product that is actually usable by customers would be uber cool to hear about.

Also would love to hear about YC projects that are not that famous - OpenAI, Smart Cities project, etc.


K
