This week the show is a bit different! I don't have a guest as such; the interview is concierged in a way to create a virtual interview. Why? Well, I wanted you to hear words of wisdom from the legend that is Eric Ries, the man behind the Lean Startup movement and without whom this show - and doubtless many hundreds of thousands of startups and unicorns - wouldn't exist. To try and lure Eric on such a new podcast just isn't realistic, so this is an experiment - if this show performs well it'll be great evidence to go to the great man himself and convince him to come on. That's the theory. Follow Martin on Twitter @Martinslaney and on his website https://martinslaney.comDo check out the original episodes of videos and podcasts I dissected and used in the show: The Startup Way with Eric Ries https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xRaA-9Rmam4Eric Ries on The Lean Startup, the law of sustainable growth, lessons learned, and looking ahead https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-N9admOU2EEric Ries on The Startup Way - The Business File from LBC https://rss.hosting.thisisdax.com/609a8c2a-c8cd-48e5-a747-693f0f122970 Lean Startup - The Future of Lean Startup http://feeds.soundcloud.com/users/soundcloud:users:63233200/sounds.rss The Twenty Minute VC - http://thetwentyminutevc.libsyn.com/rss
