Hi Shaan and Sam, one of your few true female fans. 😄 I haven’t missed a single episode. 😍I’m an entrepreneur. I don’t watch the show to learn how to build a company or brand but I watch this for comedy. You guys are the only business comedy out there!! Keep going. Can’t wait to see what the show is going to be like in 10 years. 🎉
Really insightful breakdown on the zoom-in pivot strategy! For entrepreneurs looking to replicate this, remember that a pivot doesn't just mean a new direction; it's about doubling down on what's already working and cutting out the noise. This laser focus can significantly reduce customer acquisition costs and increase retention.
I started listening to mfm because of the business ideas Now I listen because of the vibe between you guys I love it and I laugh throughout Love from Ghana, Africa Keep it going guys 👍👍
As your sole-female listener, just want to say I was an early user of the Flo app. Started using it in college. And it helped me get pregnant 5 years ago!
I enjoy your podcast and want to thank Shaan and Sam for sharing valuable insights that high-value individuals usually keep secret. I listen to your podcast on Pocket Casts during my drive to work, and it gives me so much positive energy to start my day.
The Tracy Chapman quote saying "I was a musician" in response to Charlie Rose asking "you knew you WANTED to be a musician then" comes at 4 : 55 in that interview...if anyone else wanted to know...
6:46 Sam we already know that this one is really easy for you to talk about... we've heard this ad quite a few times now😅 Big fan of the pod, and genuinely don't mind the ads, but having the same ad for so many episodes in a row doesn't help me. Have you considered recording a few different versions and rotate them? This could keep the content fresh for regular listeners like myself. Keep up the great work!
Great episode. Love all the stories. The fisherman stories is a classic that tells you to appreciate what you have and not always envy what others have. Maybe someone can explain it better.
Mexican fisherman?! I think this should be a reference to Fidel Castro's famous speech criticizing capitalism - why spend your life working so that you can retire and relax on a beach when you can relax on the beach every day here in Cuba
FYI; the kelse dressed as a Hangover squad member was a hoax / cgi edited. (Look closely at the shirt.. all folds/ shadows/ wrinkles are in EXACTLY the same place). I wanted this to be true- but it just isn’t.
Saw the ‘Jenni’ guy on the Starter Story episode….. Nice guy. Not 100% sure on his product tho. But I guess the numbers don’t lie. And I’m jealous as my own startup got to about $200K ARR, hit a massive brick wall and has gone nowhere for over a year now! D’oh! Congrats to Jenni 🎉😢
How could a guy who does a podcast about making millions not know who Dolly Pardon is? She's only one of the smartest entrepreneurs on the planet and also one of the most prolific songwriters in the music industry.
The Flow guys ripped of the period tracking idea from an established Chinese app. I remember seeing it on my old 2G phone watches (had 2) which came out of China around 2005. Just goes to show the 1st mover disadvantage.

Dude Sam retelling the fisherman story had me dying lmao “be the banker” 🤣
I swear this is true: my boss thinks I’m so smart, and made me an executive. What he doesn’t know is that I just watch MFM.
Sam commenting about people's calves reminds me of Johnny Drama from Entourage 😂
Note to self always invest in the things Shaan doesn’t invest in 😂
Literally skips everything good lol 😂
Who else is watching this while in their 9-5 office but has a small business on the side
The greatest podcast of all time, no cap
it's the most entertaining, highly educational, non basic channel ever. my favorite

Loved Flo! Used it to get prego 3 years off as well. Kinda bummed that it wasn’t female founded with a strong story for some reason🤔

54:10 is the best joke Shaan has ever told on the pod
Were you trying to timestamp @2:52 ? Because the best joke he ever told was clearly...... "What's the darkest place in the world?"
for sure, i felt like such a loser laughing so loud by myself in my office.
Good episode team
I thought you were gonna say the one at 1:02:15 about being cultured like old milk being left out and turning into yogurt, that was the best
The story of "mouth tape" using Sam as an ad is hysterical!!
David's story was amazing, he shares some of the most practical founder content on x too
Shaan was on fire this pod 🔥
6:46 Sam we already know that this one is really easy for you to talk about... we've heard this ad quite a few times now😅

Sam and the banker fisherman story had me on the floor 😂😂😂😂😂 same had me on the hook then lost me 😂 don’t be a fisherman Sam.
I want to hear more unfinished parables by Sam 😅
8:49 secret sauce of the pod right here, they don’t care who is listening, ‘He’s default dead in life’ just a conversation. 😂
That hostage tape is crazy! I've been taping my mouth for years now and spend about $10 per year on 3m Mircopore medical tape...wow.
21:20 I GOT BAMBOOZLED BY AN AD. This was just a super long ad for Shepherd 😂
On the Kelce brother pod Jason said the hangover pic was AI. He said he didn't wear that 😂
Great episode. Love all the stories. The fisherman stories is a classic that tells you to appreciate what you have and not always envy what others have. Maybe someone can explain it better.
Nailed it. Was able to guess the ad angle that worked for them
Did some goal setting recently and coming on your podcast was in my top 5!
Now I need to earn it
What a segment 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
My fav podcast people
Im a simple man. I see Sam with a suit on…. I fast forward
haha
Love this show. I learn cool stuff AND you guys make me laugh. 😂👍🏾
Another banger!
15:05 I thought Sam was about to get Bell's Palsy as his mind processed 365,000 likes.
Idea for new merch: Don't Raise Money, Be a Fisherman
Best idea ever: Cheese burgers on sticks!
love the pod :) yu leveled up in the last few episodes ^^
Mexican fisherman?! I think this should be a reference to Fidel Castro's famous speech criticizing capitalism - why spend your life working so that you can retire and relax on a beach when you can relax on the beach every day here in Cuba
22:23 I just watched his Starter Story video the other day
Same. Crazy story!
Always inspired by you guys. Thanks!

Shaan has that Cramer track record!😂
😂❤ good bad or indifferent you guys are good for a laugh. 😆 keep it up 👍🏻
Normally listen on Spotify, but doing as you request!...listen at 1.5 speed, great hearing Sam laugh! Love the Pod, keep it up!
Hey Sam, shut your mouth #hostagetapearmy 😂
😂😂 these guys crack me up
Saw the ‘Jenni’ guy on the Starter Story episode….. Nice guy. Not 100% sure on his product tho. But I guess the numbers don’t lie. And I’m jealous as my own startup got to about $200K ARR, hit a massive brick wall and has gone nowhere for over a year now! D’oh! Congrats to Jenni 🎉😢
Shaan - when you gonna talk about your ecom business?
The Mexican story had me dying 😂😂😂 we get it, although it doesn’t apply in business… I think 😂
Corporations spend millions on Superbowl commercial to get 30seconds of screen time
NFL shows Taylor Swift 1000x per minute for free 🙄
guys your old thumbnail makes more sense according to me
My first morning coffee
52:53 hahahah Sam
....stevie wonder got lost....classic :)

cmon sam...the jason kelce Hangover outfit was a photoshop lol
I was watching on TV, they showed a book cover, I can't find it. It was something about a nun?
Love it😂❤

What's the mom test?
Strange, I've had prisma downloaded on my phone for a while, might be 10 years
The $500m lesson here is to always open your emails.
