Venture Capital

Co-hosted by serial entrepreneur Jon Bradshaw and University Growth Fund managing director Peter Harris, this show brings together two perspectives that usually sit on opposite sides of the table. Jon has founded more than a dozen companies and raised capital for many of them. Peter runs a fund that invests in early-stage tech and works closely with student analysts, which gives him an unusually wide view of how new investors learn the craft. Together they break down individual deals, market trends, founder psychology, and the math behind term sheets in plain language. Each episode runs around 30 to 40 minutes and tends to feel more like a conversation between friends than a polished interview. They argue, joke, and frequently disagree about valuations, dilution, and whether a particular round was a smart bet or a vanity check. Guests include founders raising their second or third companies, GPs running smaller funds, and the occasional LP who explains what fund managers actually need to prove to raise capital. The show is especially valuable for first-time founders who want to understand the investor mindset without getting lost in jargon, and for aspiring VCs who want to hear how a working fund thinks about portfolio construction in real time. The combination of operator and investor voices makes it stand out from shows hosted by a single perspective.
