Origin Story
It all started one pandemic evening, towards the end of a virtual sake-tasting for thirty VCs. New friends Bree & Vik found themselves in a refreshingly transparent conversation with another VC. Laughs, insights, and personal stories were shared until real world commitments called them away from Zoom. At the end of it all, they wondered, why the heck weren't we recording any of it? The rest, as they say, is history.
