Summary

Our first episode from the NEW STUDIO! 🎉

Faisal & Kaya sit down in between boxes, wires, and chaos, and talk about everything from setting up the new Freshly Grounded HQ to the wildest debates you didn’t know you needed (can 100 men take down a silverback gorilla?!).

We also share the behind-the-scenes of building the dream podcast table, the joys and disappointments of coffee machines (spoiler: it takes 100 coffees to get good?!), the importance of baristas in every profession (even pilots), and balancing excitement with financial discipline while raising capital and growing Freshly Grounded.

PLUS: Big news: we are officially raising capital and still taking investor calls as we build this next chapter of Freshly Grounded. This is the raw and honest look behind the curtain of building something special.
