I think the lesson there for you and I is when you pour a lot of love and dedication and obsess over details and take the time to get it right in the product or service you're building, even if the customer or the person that's using your products or service

And the reason I was going back and forth on this, because if I just focus on his work ethic, which was originally the idea, I was going to name the episode, you know, the relentless work ethic of Bruce Springsteen, that would make perfect sense for an episode of Founders.

But then I'd be ignoring the most important part of the book.

which is this insanely talented musical genius, hardworking, obsessive, getting everything that he ever wanted and being plunged deep into depression.

I got to go to Jimmy Iovine's house.

I spent a few hours at his house in Beverly Hills recently.

It was remarkable.

And to this day, Jimmy and Bruce are very close friends.

Before I left, Jimmy's like, you need to go see the new Bruce Springsteen movie.

And so what I'm going to do is this.

I'm going to go through the book in chronological order.

His life story unfolds in chronological order.

And I think that's a really important part of the book.

And I think you'll identify, learn, and benefit from the way that Bruce Springsteen describes his life, the experiences that he had, what he learned from that, and how he changed over time.

And so I also want to do something different with regards to the sponsors of this podcast.

Usually I try to weave the sponsors into the actual story of the podcast.

I see no way to do that with the subject matter we're about to talk about.

So I'm just going to tell you about the three very important partners that I have right now up front.

And then obviously, if you get value from my work and you need these services, these are the people I recommend that you use.

And so the first one is obviously Ramp.
