To marketers who host or have been on podcasts:
I've been having some incredible discovery calls, getting into a state of flow, learning about each other and collaboratively coming up with new insights in real time. You know the kind of convos that end with "THIS could've been the podcast episode"
But then, when we hit "record", something shifts. Same questions, same answers, but the conversation flattens out. It sounds standard, more polished.
I've felt this as host and guest. It's mostly the same convo, but that same state of flow isn't reached. The episode ends up fine but it doesn't "feel" the same, and I want to share that "feeling" with the audience
Maybe it's the presence of the mic making everyone more self-conscious. Podcasts, even if informal, can carry an unspoken pressure to be more definitive or “on-brand".
Twitter Spaces fare a little better, cause no one has to worry about what their video feed looks like 1 reply

(1/🧵) 10 Ways Ecosystem Teams Support Builders 🤝
There's been some discourse about ecosystem roles, what they entail, how they interact with BD, devrel, and operations, and how they can support an ecosystem without exerting control over it.
I don't buy into "build it and they will come". An ecosystem needs to be designed and fostered. Give teams the freedom and power to build what they want, and help them to achieve this.
Here's the 10 top things I believe an ecosystem team needs to align on and execute on daily:
1. Finding, chatting with, and onboarding all of our new partners, dapps, DEXes, lending platforms, vaults, stablecoins, LSTs, NFT marketplaces, prediction markets, memecoins, launchpads, ai agents, etc
2. Asking about all their dependencies and onboarding all the infra they need: oracles, bridges, block explorers, subgraphs, RPC nodes, validators, wallets/exchanges, etc
3. Fleshing out and negotiating all the grants, investments, and liquidity deals 1 reply
