Despite having a strong product idea, Reid Hoffman’s first startup collapsed, forcing him to return investors’ capital. This tough experience reshaped his approach to entrepreneurship. By embracing failure, iterating quickly, and adapting relentlessly, he went on to become a leader at PayPal and later, the co-founder of LinkedIn. In this episode, Reid shares the concept of blitzscaling, which prioritizes speed over perfection, smart strategies for taking risks, and insights on achieving rapid market dominance.

As our short "spy thriller" comes to a close, the crew (unfortunately sans Chris) sit down to absolutely run Walt's name through the dirt for railroading them through the garbage-bot's backstory. In all seriousness, we had a fun time goofing our way through this little detour and we hope you did too, this and every week, on The Rolled Standard.

With chaos behind them and confusion ahead, the boys go into the finale the way they go into everything, completely unprepared. Paul throws rats, O-Boi gives his wig away, Olivia burns more lives, and Les doesn't grow from this in the least, this week on The Rolled Standard.

Returning to our crew, the Garbage A-Team now seems to be blending into M.I.L.F.s despite their complete lack of common sense or useful information. They get a little while to just stock up and relax before being rudely awoken by a typically shitty day in Cy, shot right across the face, neck, and chest. Paul showers, Olive naps, O-BOI digs for wigs, and Les....you know what Les does...this week on The Rolled Standard. Check out our various socials and whatnot at our Linktree . We have a Patreon .
