Speaker 1: Pushkin. I'm Jacob Goldstein. I used to host Planet Money.
Speaker 1: Now I'm starting a new show. It's called What's Your Problem.
Speaker 1: It's a show about technology and business where entrepreneurs and
Speaker 1: engineers talk about the frontier problems they're trying to solve.
Speaker 1: Right now, I'm talking to people who get up every
Speaker 1: day and try to figure out how to do something
Speaker 1: that nobody on Earth knows how to do. How do
Speaker 1: you take a drone delivery service that you've built in
Speaker 1: Rwanda and make it work in North Carolina. Our customers,
Speaker 1: they want us to do this unbelievably reliably in the storms,
Speaker 1: no matter what, hundreds of times a day. How do
Speaker 1: you start with a dream of turning single cells into
Speaker 1: tiny factories and wind up with a ten billion dollar company.
Speaker 1: We didn't have a particular technology, we have a business model,
Speaker 1: We didn't have a way of making money, all right,
Speaker 1: it was a great way to start a company. Highly recommend.
Speaker 1: How do you sell dog ramps to weener dog owners
Speaker 1: all around America in the middle of a global pandemic.
Speaker 1: We're working with four hundred influencers and the majority of
Speaker 1: them are actually not a person, but it's actually a dog.
Speaker 1: And some of them have over a million followers. I
Speaker 1: can tell you right now, the weener dog ramp Guy
Speaker 1: is working on some very interesting problems. The show is
Speaker 1: called What's Your Problem, and it launches on March seventeenth.
Speaker 1: Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or say it
Speaker 1: with me now wherever you get your podcasts. What's Your
