06/09/2026 | 48 mins.#1068 Alex Mehr is giving entrepreneurs a brand-new superpower: speed! In this episode, host Brien Gearin sits down with the founder of Famous.ai, an AI platform that turns a simple idea into a fully functioning website or app — without needing to code. Alex shares his origin story (including building and selling the dating app Zoosk for $258M) and explains why the future belongs to “idea machines” who can iterate fast, vibe-check and gut-check products quickly, and get to market in days instead of months. You’ll also hear a live demo where Alex builds real apps in minutes, plus a look at what’s coming next as AI compresses the entire entrepreneurship timeline from concept → MVP → marketing!

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices- #1066 What does it really take to grow a product business when every sale depends on inventory, cash flow, and relationships you can’t afford to lose? In Part 2 of this two-part episode, host Britlyn Williams continues her conversation with Peter Andrews, founder of Culture Wine Co., to dig into the operational side of building and scaling his South African wine business. Peter explains why wholesale requires volume, how he manages three-month import lead times while growing more than 100% year over year, and why filling an entire shipping container can dramatically reduce his per-bottle import costs. He also shares why he chose loans over venture capital, how paying his winemakers upfront helped establish trust, and why clean data and streamlined systems have been priorities from day one. Plus, Peter reveals how he’s building AI agents to handle prospecting and account follow-up, why Culture Wine Co. is intentionally focused on slow, sustainable growth, and the one thing he believes entrepreneurs need if they want to stick with a business for the long haul: deep, lasting passion for what they’re building!
What we discuss with Peter:
+ Finding your customers
+ Scaling through wholesale
+ Managing inventory and imports
+ Growing 100% year over year

In Part 1 of this two-part episode, host Britlyn Williams sits down with Peter Andrews, founder of Culture Wine Co., to unpack how a trip to South Africa reignited his passion for wine and inspired him to build a business around the country’s new generation of winemakers.

He also explains what it means to build an entirely new category, how old-school cold calling and face-to-face relationships helped him grow from zero to more than 200 accounts, and why focusing on trust, collaboration, and an underserved story has helped him build an 80% wholesale reorder rate while bootstrapping the company to profitability!
What we discuss with Peter:
+ Discovering South African wine
+ Finding an underserved category
+ Meeting 50 winemakers
+ Launching with nine producers

In this episode, host Kirsten Tyrrel sits down with Stuart Jenkins, a lifelong athlete turned footwear innovator, to unpack an incredible entrepreneurial journey that blends grit, patience, and purpose.
