So... we went through a list of companies that recently graduated from Y Combinator and ran commentary on a few that jumped at us. The last 10 minutes of the recording might be painful to listen to due to microphone issues. Contemplated deleting it, but it contained good conversation so BEER with us. Bye.Closing song: "Until the Levee" by Joy Willi…

"It's great to be back" - were Tolu's closing words as we ended the episode. Seriously, sorry it took us so long to do this. Uzo did what he does best and put me on the spot for a bit there with a Flutterwave question, thus making it the first time any of the Paystack founders publicly discuss the subject. We spent the rest of the episode examining…

Tolu is back. We discussed our individual love (or appreciation) for gadgets and explored the subject of underutilization of material possessions. We also discussed the subject of giving feedback and how things we say impress on others.Closing song: "Comfortably Numb" by Pink FloydEzra Olubi, Uzo Olisemeka & Tolu Agunbiade

The gang gets back together after a long hiatus and now, with greater timezone differences. We discuss what its like living in Mauritius, left-pad as a service, how donating to crudcast might trump donating towards cancer, what its like to be a Y Combinator alum, and easter eggs.Closing song: "Uma Thurman (Didrick remix)" by Fall Out Boy.…

Where is Uzo? Hello? Alright. We'll just go on without him. Meet Debo Olaosebikan, one of the cofounders of Gigster - a software outsourcing firm with a pool of vetted freelance developers. We discuss everything from interview tips, to living in the bay area with a $600 monthly budget. The best products come from scratching one's itch and it always…

We present to you Shirin, founder at clapglobal.com - a startup that links travelers around the world with schools at their destination countries in a bid to foster interactivity, knowledge transfer, and openness across diverse cultures. In a self referential turn of events, the episode itself became an interesting bridge between our cultures (Shir…

We open with a discussion on loyalty/rewards solutions and how they fare in Nigeria compared to the west and asked Uzo a couple of questions on the plans for his own product. Tolu shared how a dead millionaire trolled a couple of families into making more babies and scratched the surface of what it's like to be a woman in tech. Closing song: "Like …

In what was supposed to be our first episode with Tolu joining as a cohost, she abandoned us mid episode for activities regarding a pool party she was at. We discussed our activities from the past week and news regarding Uber and Netflix. The episode came to a close with the team welcoming a certain TemiL to a certain forum called Radar.Closing son…

We have our second solo guest - Tolu Agunbiade (calling in from Chile). We spent a little time reflecting on our past adventures and played a little rating game. One of us once cried in a car and another absconded with company property. You'll have to guess though. Once again, we discuss the business side of startups from the angle of finding a pro…

Finally, we record a new episode. We apologize for skipping out on last week and as Uzo said, "life got the better of us". We discuss the subject of criticizing (or praising) Nigerian startups, possible use cases for the Techcabal.com.ng domain name, pornography, and bringing in unsuccessful people as guests on the show in the future. We thoroughly…

Sorry for the late recording of this episode. We will do better next time, promise. We explored the idea of creating a Shopify for streaming websites and while Uzo thinks it's brilliant, Ezra thinks it's too niche and unless there is proof of market, people are better off stitching together services like they can today. We also looked at a bandwidt…

Another episode across the atlantic - we better start getting used to this. Ezra hung out with the co-founder of Gigster and discusses his understanding of the product. Uzo tables his disappointment with the bulk of ideas presented at the recent Startup Weekend in Lagos and dives into a long-winding talk about some idea he's helping a friend with. …

Our first episode over Skype. Ezra buys a hoodie and gets to do good work on Paystack. Uzo uses Code Igniter and expresses his luuurrrv for Nairaland. Mr. Secret gets some airtime, and Ezra gets borderline racist talking about a black Uber driver.Closing song: "Carry Me Home" by The SweeplingsEzra Olubi, Uzo Olisemeka & Tolu Agunbiade

This episode is a conversation over ice-cream with our four guests: two bloggers, a web developer and a business development lead.We discussed how a gmail account could be a technical barrier to adopting a product, building focused products with no need for plugins, the power of Instagram, image curation as a way to reach your audience and why Uzo'…

Finally, a theme song - sampled from Audiomachine's "Cat And Mouse". Uzo expresses his hatred for it but who cares, right? We talked about Uzo's experimentation with streaming data logs, the skull shaped (ooooh, spooky) asteroid that did a flyby of earth on Halloween, and yesterday's failed attempt to coordinate an installation of Arch Linux on a V…

We went old-school telephony and saw Ezra goof with the full meaning of DTMF. Who owns the right to photographs taken of you? You, the photographer, or Uzo's umbrella man? We also sort of continued last week's talk with a focus on funding and mistakes that sometimes come with them.Opening & closing song: "Paris, Tokyo" by Lupe Fiasco…
