What this episode covers
Pete Codes is my favourite kind of indie hacker. He thought "what have I got to lose, and went all in with his side-project". 2 years later, he's running a profitable business that sustains him, and allows Pete to work in a way he wants to. In this episode we talk through all of Pete's various side projects, the tips he'd give to other makers for growing them and how he's making the indie life work out for him.
