I’m excited to (finally) announce the launch of my newest incubated venture: @TurpentineMedia, a network of podcasts, newsletters, and more covering tech, business, and culture, from the perspective of industry insiders and experts.

Think The Ringer or Barstool, for tech.

We… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
There exist practitioners in every vertical who’d make more money & have more fun being a business creator for their niche, & Turpentine is here to help them do it

Think @lennysan @HarryStebbings @packyM, 7-figure biz creators just off podcasts & newsletters

Just the beginning.
Our first three shows demonstrate this vision:

- @MOZ_Podcast w/ @dwr @antoniogm and guests @pmarca @balajis @KTmBoyle @micsolana
- @CogRev_Podcast w/ @labenz
- @Upstream__Pod w/ guests @JTLonsdale @ezraklein @DavidSacks @benedictevans Sam Harris

First episode with @pmarca is out now. Next guests include @DavidSacks, @balajis, @ezraklein, @KTmBoyle, @JTLonsdale, & more

Preview of the episodes below:
Check out the podcast episode with Marc Andreessen below. I'm biased, but I think this interview gives the best insight into his intellectual journey over the past decade.

YouTube:
In the first episode with @pmarca, we discuss:

Here are some of the most interesting books and blog posts that changed my mind in 2022:
Ancient City

TLDR: For 99.9% of our existence, Western society has been a fascist-communist cult that joined ethnicity, religion, and culture.

We can see some similarities today: ancestor worship = identity politics; nature worship = environmentalism

Zeihan's The End of The World is Just The Beginning

Deglobalization combined w/ depopulation changes everything

The idea of global supply chains goes away; the idea of a single price for oil goes away; the idea that we can feed 8 billion people goes away

What makes group chats uniquely good is partly the privacy but mostly the chemistry of the group

There should be a feature where, if everyone opts in, you can seamlessly publish the part of the chat that's appropriate for public consumption
Talkshow founded by the excellent @sippey tried this in 2016, but perhaps now's a better time for it since group chats are more prominent today given how stilted social networks have gotten
