Randomly stumbled upon David Wolve’s music on Spotify, and I f*cking love it! Turns out he makes all the music himself and works at the airport. My favorite songs from him are “Rapture” and “Touring Test”, but frankly all of them are amazing!

Chris Ruder is the founder and CEO of Spikeball. The funny thing about Spikeball is that it was invented by a different guy named Jeff Knurek in 1989. It was only in the market for a few years before quickly dying out. Chris was actually an early player of the game as a kid, saw its potential, decided to find the game as an adult, and turn it into a successful business.  https://okdork.com/podcast/246 Use this link to get 10% off at checkout on AppSumo: https://appsumo.com/?coupon=noah10&code=noah10
