Timeless VS Just-In-Time Lessons | Earnest Sweat & Alexa Binns | Superclusters | S6PSE1

The holiday season has always been a great time to celebrate the movers and shakers in our world. This season we're celebrating my personal favorites in the LP world. To start this mini-holiday series off, Earnest Sweat and Alexa Binns runs one of the most popular podcasts on venture capital limited partners, Swimming with Allocators. I was also fortunate enough to be on their podcast as well as a bonus crossover episode.You can find Earnest on his socials here:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/earnestsweat/X / Twitter: https://x.com/EarnestSweatYou can find Alexa on her socials here:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexabinns/X / Twitter: https://x.com/alexabinnsOUTLINE:[00:00] Intro[02:09] Alexa's earliest relationship with money[03:28] Earnest's earliest relationship with money[04:45] Earnest's first major purchase[06:41] Alexa's first major purchase[08:25] The difference between public speaking and interviewing[12:19] Memorable guests on the SwA podcast[14:46] To do or not to do in-person interviews[18:05] Evolution of YouTube titles[20:04] Why err towards evergreen content?[22:30] Was SwA designed for LPs or GPs?[24:12] How did Earnest and Alexa meet?[24:56] How did Swimming with Allocators start?[27:21] The Pandora's Box of intros[28:02] Alexa's 3 buckets for LP investing[30:12] What is 'coming soon' for Earnest and Alexa?[36:58] Post-credit scene: Spider-Man & Investors as AvengersFollow David Zhou for more Superclusters content:For podcast show notes: https://cupofzhou.com/superclustersFollow David Zhou's blog: https://cupofzhou.comFollow Superclusters on X: https://x.com/SuperclustersLP
