In summary, I've been hamstrung by a trifecta for the ages:
1. Global pandemic
2. New startup
3. New baby

I did, however, leave off at episode 99... so 💯 is the only possible route forward.

I will be back—hope to chat soon!

It's come to my attention that some of you are wondering about the status of the podcast so here's the official announcement. I do apologize for the lack of communication— in May-July, as I waited for the pandemic situation to conclude... it didn't.

I also co-founded a new startup, @warerobotics—and, unsurprisingly, it tends to be somewhat of a time-consuming endeavor.

And finally, I'm a dad to a new baby boy, Liam! Entering the world amidst a plague in a land of hermits, it's been a whirlwind of an experience.

Finally revealing the results of all the hard work the @warerobotics team has put in. We've come a long way over the last 5 mo's since our pre-seed (led by @BloombergBeta). Peep the video we produced w/ @cevalogistics and see how our warehouse automation system works! 🤖
