Caleb and Jenny,

THIS IS AWESOME! So great to get a peek into your life, Jenny. “Leaving Google is like breaking up with Brad Pitt,” hahaha!

You guys hit on so many things that were right up my alley- thanks a ton for this. Have so much fun in Bali, Jenny. Can’t wait to see you two at WDS :-)

Cool interview - Jenny’s has such a shiny vibe it’s impossible not to smile listening to the podcast.
You did ask some genuine questions, Caleb, and I luv luv luv the beginning of the podcast - the intro is soo cool (I’m a sucker for the package as well ! )

Curious to see who’s next on your list.
