Episode 30: Troy Munson (https://www.linkedin.com/in/troymunson/) and Daniel Berk (https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielberk/) go full late-night therapy session — live from Spain (again) and the depths of parental chaos. From mushroom microdosing and screaming toddlers to productivity paranoia and the new AI gold rush, the dads get vulnerable, real, and a little spicy. This one’s less “tech podcast,” more existential spiral. You’ve been warned.


Show Notes:
(0:00) Chaos in Spain: Kids crying, lights dying
(1:40) Daniel’s 14-hour day (with zero breaks)
(3:10) “I microdosed mushrooms… but not enough”
(5:00) The lie of productivity culture
(7:30) Doing hard things with your kids — not despite them
(9:20) Troy’s “Go off, King” dad moment
(10:50) AI doesn’t kill jobs — dumb managers do
(13:15) The “you should just be better” gaslight
(15:00) What leadership actually requires now
(17:40) Will your AI agent handle your meetings soon?
(20:10) Why we’re tired of the 10x hustle cult
(22:25) Talking about marriage... again
(25:00) What no one tells you about scaling startups with kids
(28:00) Why Daniel cried on a run
(29:30) Cereal, snacks, and unfinished therapy
