Things i really love doing and these are things maybe not so much. Things that just to me i'm just not going to get any pleasure about life um working like no offense to my incredible lawyers but negotiating term sheets and legal and HR issues. Meeting with founders uh when they fit a certain profile but it's veryVery fun for us to record the show every day instead of having dinner at lunch we just record a pod in the end.
We kick off ACQ Sessions with the-behind-the-scenes story of All-in, from the world’s greatest moderator himself Jason Calacanis. ACQ Sessions is our new, occasional “MTV Unplugged” version of Acquired: a great IRL guest, a bottle (or two) of wine, and no script. We talk about everything you’d imagine we would over wine with JCal — All-In, bestie relationships, money & politics in Silicon Valley, who his influences and mentors have been (one surprise — the great Fred Wilson of USV!), what motivates him to keep grinding and why, at age 50+ when he could easily be winding down he’s instead speeding up into the most productive phase of his entire career. Pour a beverage yourself, pull up a comfy seat and join us!
