Hey everybody. This is Alex. Hey, it's Natasha. And we are here to talk just for a second about

Extra Crunch, Tech Crunchy subscription product. Extra Crunch is where a lot of our best analysis and follow-up stories lives. We focus a lot on startups, building, and even

poke fun here and there.

It's true. I also write a daily column called The Exchange that's over on Extra Crunch

and the good news is if you don't have

EC access yet we have a deal for you. Yes you can use I think the best code there

is so don't tell anyone who doesn't listen to equity because they're not invited the code is equity all caps for 50% off your extra crunch subscription

So head over to tech Tech Ranch. Hello and welcome back to Equity, Tech Rentis of

Venture Capital Focus Podcast where we unpack the numbers behind the headlines.

My name is Alex and I am joined by Danny Criden, one of T.C.

Managing Editors and Writer, author I should say, of the recent mega coin-based piece over on the site.

Danny, how are you doing?

I'm doing all right. I mean, I don't know whether to read my coin-based portfolio, my Robin Hood portfolio,

or just give it up and move to a cave.

I feel like that's a very fitting comment given the rapid-fire news deluge we've been under in the last couple of days.

I'm exhausted.

And a cave sounds nice because there wouldn't be any

Wi-Fi so I couldn't do any work. But before we go all caveman and Stonehenge, Natasha you're also here how are you doing?

I'm good I was just saying yesterday there's never been a better time to be a

journalist so I will bring the optimism this week because I feel super

important and I will ride that as long as I can. Do you feel super important

because everyone's trying to get your attention at the same time?
