CNN's John Sutter looks back at his top episodes of Cinnamon Film. He talks about why some VCs won't invest in first-time founders, self-destructive traits of VCs and how your own confirmation bias plays in as a VC and as a founder. "I learned mushrooms are the future," says Sutter on climate startups.
