Episode notes

Paige: There's always some really polite way to say no. Some people will just send you shit to be, to like prove that they're helpful. I do think it's different on the LP side though, because there's certain things that won't fit us. But and I've marked them down. Paige: The worst advice ever given to founders was when you get a no, ask that person to introduce you to three more people.
