Founder's Story sponsors and ad reads

Apple #59
Hosts: Gary V, Codie Sanchez, Rob Dyrdek, Shelley Zalis, Noah Kagan, Kate Hancock, Ryan Serhant, Kara Goldin
Publisher: IBH Media

"Founder's Story" by IBH Media isn't a business show. It's the conversation founders don't get to have anywhere else. Think 60 Minutes, but for entrepreneurs. We sit down with the most interesting people in business and go past the highlight reel, past the pitch, past the polished version they give every other podcast. We go into the mud with them. The 2 a.m. doubts. The bet that almost ended everything. The moment they wanted to quit and didn't. You'll hear from household names like Gary V, Codie Sanchez, Rob Dyrdek, and Tom Bilyeu, and just as often from founders you've never heard of who are building something the world needs to know about. Either way, the goal is the same: a real conversation that makes you laugh, makes you think, and sometimes catches you off guard with how much it makes you feel. This is where the story behind the success finally gets told. This is "Founder's Story."

Let me tell you about a time that Upwork saved me. I had two hours to get a submission to a major media outlet, and I thought there was no way I'd make it. I jumped on Upwork, messaged someone, and within 10 minutes, they replied. 90 minutes later, the work was done in my inbox, submitted on time. And here's the best part.

Quince27:14-28:31
August is the perfect time to hit reset before the autumn rush begins. And honestly, I can't think of a better place to start than my closet. That's why I love shopping at Quince. Quince is all about fewer, better pieces. Their clothes are made from premium materials built to last and designed to become the ones you reach for day after day. For me, that's a pair of pants and a shirt that have quietly become my favorite things to wear. I am not great at choosing good clothing, but my wife even loves it. And that's the part that got me. Once you feel it, the worn out basics in your drawer stop making sense. And the value is almost hard to believe. Everything at Quince is priced 50 to 80% less than similar brands because they work directly with ethical factories and cut out the middlemen. You're paying for quality, not brand markup. And it's not just clothing. Quince has become my go-to for everything from hotel quality bedding to travel must-haves. Upgrade your every day. Download the Quince app for app exclusive offers or go to quince.com slash founders. Get free shipping on your order and 365 day returns. Now available in Canada and the UK too. That's quince.com slash founders.

Shopify6:27-7:25
If you've ever been sitting on a business idea, Shopify makes it easy to actually make it happen. Everything you need to start selling is included and ready from day one. I've been selling online with Shopify for over a decade. My first real store was a men's skincare and grooming line, and I built it on Shopify. What I remember most is that the scary part, the moment a customer was actually ready to pay, was already handled. Shopify checkout helped more of those customers finish. And when they came back, their details were saved. One tap and they were done. That did something for my confidence early on. It told me the thing worked. And because Shopify handled the setup and the checkout, I got to spend my time on the part that actually grows the business. Same platform powering names like Mattel and Gymshark was powering me, a guy with one product and an idea.

August is the perfect time to hit reset before the autumn rush begins, and honestly, I can't think of a better place to start than my closet. That's why I love shopping at Quince. Quince is all about fewer, better pieces. Their clothes are made from premium materials, built to last, and designed to become the ones you reach for day after day. For me, that's a pair of pants and a shirt that have quietly become my favorite things to wear. I am not great at choosing good clothing, but my wife even loves it. And that's the part that got me. Once you feel it, the worn-out basics in your drawer stop making sense. And the value is almost hard to believe. Everything at Quince is priced 50% to 80% less than similar brands because they work directly with ethical factories and cut out the middlemen. You're paying for quality, not brand markup. And it's not just clothing. Quince has become my go-to for everything from hotel-quality bedding to travel must-haves. Upgrade your everyday.

Let me describe a meal I once ate at 2.47 p.m., standing at the pantry, a sleeve of crackers, six chocolate chips, straight from a bag, a spoonful of peanut butter, which is one of my favorites, and then, because I felt guilty, three baby carrots. That wasn't a snack. That was a crime scene. Now, when this hits, I grabbed... boom huell black edition and look it's a complete meal you have instead of food not a shake on top of food 40 grams of protein mixes with water or milk in about 30 seconds 27 essential vitamins and minerals no artificial sweeteners colors or flavors if i'm out the door the ready to drink bottle is 35 grams of protein 7 grams of fiber under five dollars a meal That is unfreaking beatable.

And I realized that like in the hotel gym, just now traveling, I was on the treadmill watching my favorite episodes while I get a workout. And the only reason I could do that is because of ProtonVPN.

SStoryblocks
Storyblocks10:55-12:03
When you're producing a show like Founder Story, the amount of content we push out is massive. YouTube, audio, social clips, TV, every piece needs music, B-roll, sound effects. And I used to waste hours along with my editors hunting for assets and worrying about licensing. Then we found Storyblocks. Storyblocks is 100% human-made stock library.com. Built for creators, every asset is made by a professional filmmaker or artist never AI-generated, all pre-licensed and ready-to-use and monetized content. Unlimited downloads under one subscription means I can experiment freely, try different tracks, swap B-roll, no per-download stress. Their members save an average of three and a half hours per week, and every download directly supports a real working artist. Head to storyblocks.com slash founders to access human-made stock media library that's essential to my workflow. For a limited time, they're offering 15% off any annual plan, and that discount is only available through my link. Again, that's storyblocks.com slash founders for 15% off annual plans.

SShopify
Shopify21:06-22:23
Have you been sitting on a business idea? Let me tell you something. I've been selling on Shopify since 2012. I started with a men's grooming line, built out a full skincare brand, all on the same platform. And the thing that blew me away from day one, was that everything I needed to actually start selling was already there. I didn't need to piece together five different tools or hire a developer. Shopify had it already. The moment that first customer was ready to pay, the checkout just worked. No friction, no drop-off. And when customers come back, their details are already saved. One tap and they're done. That was huge for me early on because every completed sale built my confidence that this thing was real. And because Shopify handled the setup and the checkout, I wasn't stuck troubleshooting my own website. I could actually focus on building the brand, creating new products, running campaigns. That shift from figuring out the tech to actually growing the business, that's when everything changed for me. With Shopify, nothing stands in between your idea and a real business. So go make it one. Start your free trial at Shopify.com slash founders story. Start your free trial at Shopify.com slash founders story.
