My conversation with @MollySOShea.

Molly is the founder of @sourceryy a media company covering technology, startups, and the people building some of Silicon Valley's most influential companies.

She's known for her unconventional interviews with founders and executives like @PalantirTech's Alex Karp and @anduriltech 's @PalmerLuckey.

We discuss how she went from working in venture capital to building Sourcery, the strategies behind landing interviews with some of tech's most powerful CEOs, and why creating content that looks different from everyone else's is becoming increasingly important.

We also discuss:

- How she built relationships with influential founders and executives in Silicon Valley
- Why she left venture capital after a career setback that changed her perspective on success
- How walking interviews and factory tours helped Sourcery stand out in a crowded media landscape
- The strategy of publishing a list of 100 dream guests to land high-profile interviews

Enjoy!

Last week, @Douthat60 interviewed a president at a post-midterms crossroads. His party may be defeated, but he still has decisions to make that will determine his legacy.

Read Ross's column on the interview, and why there's more at stake in Trump's 'lame duck' years than most seem to realize.

One major revelation from the recent release of a full text message timeline from the sexual assault case at Cornell is that the gang rape narrative originated entirely with Jane Doe’s sorority sisters, who preferred it for obvious reasons. My latest at @thefp:

My theory of American-Jewish politics is based around your view of your parents. If you love them and think they are right about everything you read the Free Press. If you think they are wrong and that they lied to you, you read Jewish Currents.

It's easy to recognize that @Douthat60 is killing it. But do you have the courage to recognize @bariweiss is the 🐐

[Nellie Bowles @NellieBowles]

It's always a good day to subscribe to The Free Press, the only place you'll read Ross Douthat's columns. Much like my own, they are all bangers.

[Caitlin Flanagan @CaitlinPacific]

Wow. This is what it used to look like when a journalist interviewed a president: respectful, unsparing, prepared to the nth degree.

Just a tweet to say that @SulkinMaya is a wonderful colleague and a superb young journalist. And the recent Twitter pile on will not deter her one iota. Than you for your attention to this matter.

Wiles submitted her resignation to the president Thursday night, a U.S. official told CBS News.
