Hey folks, we just had Thanksgiving here in Canada, and if you're here, Happy Thanksgiving! If not, well, I'm still thankful you're reading this 😄

The most popular short I posted last week (by far) was my thoughts on software agencies. I have more to say here, but after bookended conversations with two very different software services companies, I felt compelled to articulate my thoughts on the matter. I think software agencies have, ironically, commoditized themselves. If anyone can create software (no code, AI coding tools like Replit and Cursor, etc.), what matters now? I have some quick thoughts below 👇, but let me know what you think!

You know people, right?

We're still busy recruiting guests and expect to launch ASAP, but if you know of any investors or entrepreneurs outside of Canada who are building their tech companies differently, details here, send them our way!

Ah, Britpop

Looks like Britpop (my fav genre) is back, so check out this excellent new song from Coldplay while you go about your week.
