This episode is hosted by Joy Jing, Head of Community at Everywhere Ventures (previously The Fund). In this interview, Joy and Ben explore Contra’s unique commission-free, independents-first model. Hear their thoughts on originality in the age of generative art, creative ownership in the world of synthetic work, and thoughts on up-skilling with AI. Listen till the end for Ben’s favorite podcast that makes founders extremely informed and paranoid, and one nature-inspired productivity hack that is readily doable for everyone.
