Episode notes

"I grew up on the black side of the city for lack of a better term," he says. "It's just like inherently deeply racist and has been for as long as all the way back to segregation." He talks about how his white friends would get really angry at him if he acted differently in front of other people because they didn't know what code switching was. And it's actually a thing in FinTech that you talk to A startup founder or one of our best friends who is just so goddamn smart, but doesn't understand why we're talking this way.
