Episode notes

Uber could, you know, just like DoorDash, DoorDash bought was a European Cup. And then Uber bought Postmates, both of those were your acquisition bait when the valuation comes to reality. So it's the anti-Instacart. I think they want to make money off your vodka and Advil. You're going to pay for them when you want them unlike oranges. Like you'll pay out the nose or vodka if you run out. Yes. No IPO. Go Puff. Quick commerce, 15 minute deliveries of snacks, household goods, et cetera.

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).
