So guys, I hate that I have to do this, but I thought it might happen eventually.

You know, I interview some very powerful CEOs.

I fight like heck to get everyone on the show.

And I celebrate bootstrapped founders for a reason.

The big ones backed by VC that are burning a bunch of cash, building fake, we work like companies.

They have tech crunch and recode and all these places that will talk about them all day

long. But the bootstrap founder in the middle of America has nobody except Latka. I love these

founders. They're amazing. I love having them on. But what happened is I had one of these big,

these big ones. We won't name who, but one of these big ones on the show. I just beat the heck out of

them because they were using ridiculous. We're the best. We're number one. When really they're burning

about broke. It's ridiculous. But they complained to the press. And now I have Recode essentially

reaching out to me saying very nasty things about the podcast. So here's the deal. I have no

idea if Recode actually has real power

with Apple. But in case Apple makes a decision to remove the podcast here, I had to launch

quickly on YouTube. So we're shutting the podcast down here. Go to Nathanlaka.com forward

slash YouTube to keep getting the same great content every day there that's nathanlaka

dot com forward slash youtube now if you want more context on the whole situation i made a post on it

yesterday on my lincoln page or my instagram you can go check it out there it's very ridiculous but

i'm going to keep fighting for bootstrap founders i'm going to stay tough it. It's going to be numbers driven. You know, the show has over 10 million downloads for a reason.

The book, over 20,000 copies sold capitalistbook.com for a reason. Wall Street Journal bestseller.

The magazine, you guys are loving the magazine. I will keep gathering data so that we can learn as a SaaS community.

And most importantly, I will keep celebrating founders who are building real companies.
