0:00.0 | What's up everyone? Welcome back to another episode of Founders Journal. I'm Alex Lieberman, |
0:05.0 | co-founder and executive chairman of Morning Brew. Today we are talking about probably the |
0:09.9 | only thing that anyone is talking about at the moment, Sam Altman and Open AI. |
0:15.2 | On Friday, it was announced that Sam Altman was removed as Open AI's CEO and board member |

1:14.9 | How to successfully build a board. |
1:17.3 | Now I am highly unqualified to cover this topic since Morningbrough never raised venture capital |
1:22.0 | and my co-founder Austin and I were the board |
1:24.6 | for six years, but I did get a wildly qualified founder to come on the podcast and share his thoughts. |
1:30.7 | Brett Adcock is a serial entrepreneur who has raised over $1 billion of venture capital |
1:36.5 | and he has constructed four boards during his career. He's currently building |
