Can you recommend a book or a podcast that our listeners should immediately get into?

It’s gonna sound true to my unit economics form, but I love The Lean Startup by Eric Ries. I’ve probably read it three times, I’m not going to lie. (Carla)

The SaaS Podcast by Omer Kahn. I find that every short podcast that he puts out, there’s always a small nugget (to takeaway) even if it’s an entirely different software to what we’re building. (David)
