"The fundamental job of a founder is to create momentum. And in my mind, i like to imagine this gigantic fly wheel, and it's made up of the most dense material in the universe," he says. "I do have a framework on this, which explains why i think it was the rational thing to do in my case."

We wrap up Season 4 with a very special (and accidental!) episode, a conversation with the CEO of Superhuman, the red hot email productivity app which just announced their $33m Series B led by Andreessen Horowitz. While originally intended as an LP episode, we felt Superhuman would provide the perfect bookend to our “modern enterprise productivity trilogy” following our Zoom and Slack episodes. We hope you enjoy the conversation with Rahul as much as we did, and we’ll see you later this summer for Season 5!
