Episode notes

Boba Fett had like three lines in the whole original trilogy. He then became a nerd geek out, you know, a Nigma. And so there's a new series after the Mandalorian. John Favreau is now building the world of Boba Fett post being a bounty hunter and it's awesome. Man, now it's like we go from car talk to Star Wars, nerdery like this.

Alex Wilhelm from TechCrunch joins Molly and Jason for a full episode. First, they breakdown Tesla's Q4 2021 earnings including its consistently increasing Model 3 production, profitability and charger network growth (3:08). Next up, they discuss why Alex thinks the IPO window is closed for most startups. We wrap with a review of some of 2022's most anticipated IPOs including Discord, Reddit, Stripe, Impossible Foods, Chime and Instacart (24:45).
