a16z just announced their newest fund - $15 billion! I had benahorowitz.eth on Uncapped to discuss how they run the firm, how he thinks about venture talent, a16z's overall investment approach, deploying capital at scale, media, and more. He's easily one of the most impressive people I've gotten to...

As part of my ploy to use Uncapped as an excuse to learn about venture capital, this week my guest was an excellent LP, Dan Feder. He's been managing director for the endowments of Princeton, WashU, and now Michigan. I had a great time listening to how he thinks about venture.

There is no venture capital firm like Founders Fund, and there is no writer who tells venture capital firms' stories like Mario Gabriele. In their respective crafts, both have No Rivals. That is the title of Mario's epic four-part series on Peter Thiel and Founders Fund, and the topic of our conversation on Hyperlegible. Sometimes, someone writes something so good that it fills me with a healthy, respectful, chapeau-inducing jealousy. Rene Girard would probably have something to say about that. No Rivals is one of those pieces. On this week's Hyperlegible, we talked about how he got such in-depth access, how he wrangled everything he learned into the beautifully coherent story he told, and of course, we talked all about how Founders Fund has built one of the best, and certainly the most unique, venture capital firm in the world. And we end the conversation, as he ended the series, by discussing whether and how Founders Fund will be able to stay original and dominant when everyone is trying to copy them.

David Haber on the idea behind "Firm > Fund": "Most people are running funds. It's how do I generate the most carry with the fewest people in the shortest amount of time possible." "A firm is two things. It's delivering exceptional returns, which is a prerequisite." "But the second is how do I build sources of compounding competitive advantage? What are my moats?" "If I think about our business as a company, not as a fund." "Entrepreneurs spend all the time thinking about their competitive advantage and their moats. Why shouldn't we?" "I think firms are often run by entrepreneurs more than they're run by investors." David Haber on IO Podcast

New episode of Uncapped with the full Benchmark partnership. They're arguably the best early stage venture firm of all time and have retained a model and approach that very few others have. I learned a ton, hope you enjoy.

Not sure I've ever learned more in 100 minutes than I did talking to Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸 on Uncapped. We covered the future of venture capital, what he sees coming with AI, the current state of politics and the media, and then a bunch of random questions I just really wanted to ask him.

Before they founded a16z, a conversation with a partner at a prominent venture capital firm made Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸 and benahorowitz.eth realize they’d found a “soft target.” 👇

I had a blast having Thomas Laffont on Uncapped. He's the cofounder of Coatue, a $70B AUM firm investing from inception through IPO. We discussed how he makes sense of the current AI cycle, what he thinks will happen to software systems of record, why he has no issue making conflicting investments, what it's like working with his brother, and advice to young people. I learned a ton and it he shared a bunch of perspectives I don't often get to hear. Hope you enjoy.

In many ways, Thrive is helping define the current era of venture capital. Vince Hankes is one of the best in the business; he's behind their investments in OpenAI, SpaceX, Databricks, Stripe, and many more. He's also an excellent board member and friend. Excited for more people to hear his thinking, hope you enjoy.

🎙️ Josh Green on LaMelo Ball: "Some of the stuff he does is similar to Luka (Doncic)—it's a different type of feel for the game." "His best skill is his confidence. It's truly a skill to have that level of confidence to be able to do what you do on the court. It's impressive." "Honestly, he's just a great person to be around. He's always happy. He goes up and says, 'What's up?' and 'How are you?' to everybody. It was one of the first things I noticed, like, 'Wow, that's impressive.' He's a great guy, obviously an amazing basketball player, and a talent that doesn't come around often." Full interview on Run Your Race Podcast:

Mike Majlak says he's pulling more weight on the podcast and they should at least split the money equally with Logan Paul "The Sidemen group is equitable, which I've always found amazing. They share the money evenly. I've always found it admirable because I would never do that. For me, it's like, how much weight do you pull? What percentage of the show are you actually responsible for?" "By that logic, I would get more than 70% of the show. I would literally have the whole show" "Because it's not just about how much you talk on the podcast, it's about why people watch. There's not one person tuning in thinking, 'I wonder what Logan Paul has to say.' Are you crazy?"

When you talk about people I'm a big fan of Jeff Cobb is very high on that list. He's got everything you can ask for in a talent. I hope to see more of him in #AEW You can see more where I discuss the "State of the Business" at 🤠

This week's Uncapped guest was Roelof Botha, who runs Sequoia. We talked about his psychology leading the firm, how Sequoia makes decisions, and his views on the state of technology markets today. Unsurprisingly, I learned a ton. Hope you enjoy listening.

Reporter: Now, in terms of the $300 billion investment fund that’s being discussed, what are your thoughts on that? Graham: My thoughts are that rebuilding Iran with the people in charge today is a bit problematic for me. To get this investment fund, I think they have to fundamentally change who they are and how they behave. Count me in the skeptical column.
