    Brian Grazer once picked my brain about how Y Combinator works. He did it so well that I learned things about YC that I hadn't realized till then. That guy is smart. Anything he does is likely to succeed.https://www.nytimes.com/2019/08/01/business/media/imagine-entertainment-brian-grazer-ron-howard.html …

        I knew someone would ask that, and unfortunately I don't. I just remember thinking with surprise "this conversation is useful to me as well."

        Huh. Imagine a time when 40 somethings could contribute to 20 somethings careers. Without lording money over them.

        The market for new scripted content seems endless, who is consuming all of this content? I’m a bit confused

        Did you read his book *A Curious Mind*? It's often charming and sometimes fascinating, especially his account of meeting Teller.
