Episode notes

The angel syndicate is now the largest syndicate in the world i've deployed like 185 million dollars in my career as an angel investor doing 50 million a year now that's awesome. I work 60 70 hours a week keep up if you can't keep up don't be here, he tells his team. Is it someone who's content with doing this or are you looking for people that are like hungry enough to be the next Jason calicanis? "I'm open to all of it yeah i'm open toAll of it"

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!
