無料で聴く

For operator-founders building for the AI era. Mike Bledsoe and Ted Phaeton host. Mike's been an entrepreneur for 19 years: Navy veteran, built CrossFit gyms, Barbell Shrugged, a SaaS product for operators, and now consults operators rebuilding their businesses around AI. Ted's earlier on the path. Part of the show is Mike mentoring him through the conversation in public. The rest is keeping the audience up to speed on what AI is actually doing to the game in real time. When there are guests, they're operators worth having in the room. When there aren't, Ted drives the questions. Usually the ones most operators won't ask out loud. They walk through the work together. Most business podcasts are entertainment for operators pretending to build something. This one is for the ones actually building. No guru energy. No performance. Two operators thinking out loud about what ownership actually requires now. New episodes every Monday.2026 マネジメント・リーダーシップ リーダーシップ 経済学

  • He Wrote The Copy Behind 9 Figures. He Learned To Code Last Year
    2026/08/17
    Pedro Jerez has written the copy behind nine figures of revenue and led growth at multiple eight figure companies, the largest of them from zero to $60M in three years. A little over a year ago he watched one video late at night and started vibe coding a landing page. He is now building AI native software. He is also the reason I started. I walked out of his house and did not sleep for two weeks. This is the whole conversation: how he decides what to build, the one question he uses to position anything, the memory architecture he had to invent so his agents stopped breaking his code, and the honest version of confidence he runs on, which is not "I can do this" but "I can learn this in time not to look stupid." Start here: https://bledsoe.life/start 0:00 Cold open 0:46 Who Pedro is, and why Mike wanted him on 6:06 One video, late at night, and the intimidation was gone 9:11 You don't know what you don't know until you're in the game 12:01 Don't tell the agent to fix the bug 17:56 Before AI the idea had to shrink. Now it expands 22:08 There is nothing in your way except you 24:40 I believed I could learn it in time not to look stupid 26:40 Elon read a book about rockets 31:06 He walked away from a million dollar run rate 37:33 Loving a product and using it daily are different businesses 43:15 Two friends broke his product in 15 seconds 44:06 Positioning and product-market fit are not the same question 45:56 5-Hour Energy named a moment nobody had named 47:53 Right product, right time. That's the whole test 53:39 Ted: speed scores once, routes score every time 55:33 The memory architecture ladder 62:13 The dependency map, and keeping it current 65:31 A buyer will look at this before they buy you 66:48 Planning versus execution, and his actual ratio 73:10 Ted: when do you know you've painted your last stroke? 75:52 Five months of work on the first seven days 77:40 There is no world where you can be behind Pedro is building Cochi.

  • He runs a free startup house and takes no equity. Here is why.
    2026/08/24
    Nikky Kho runs AI Startup House, a founder residence in Manhattan and Austin that is free and takes no equity. Before that he built a global events business, and he has a ladder for where people actually are with AI: Level 1 is a chat window, Level 3 is agents running unattended, and he thinks 99% of self-described AI users never leave the first rung. We got into the four levels, why delegation is a time problem rather than a skills problem, the five reasons founders exit a business (the most common one is not money), and what he asks people to do before he lets them in: sell to 40 strangers something that does not exist yet. I also told him what I am seeing from the other side. My call volume from seven-figure owners whose businesses started falling out the bottom has gone up sharply in the last six to twelve months.

  • He Sold $70K Websites. Then He Killed The Model Himself
    2026/08/10
    He was selling $70,000 websites. Then AI made "a great website" something anyone could produce in an afternoon, and Dima Kozlov had a choice: defend the model or kill it himself. He killed it. This is the whole arc: what he rebuilt the business into, what an afternoon with AI now replaces, why he stopped taking retainers, and the AI sales coach that caught a five figure deal everyone had written off. Full Stack Founders is where operators rebuild their businesses around AI they own instead of renting someone else's. New episodes every Monday.
