Thursday Labs adapted the Optimist podcast to include a new episode featuring Ben Parens from Nestwell.

We're a podcast network for the builders, funders, and backers of what comes next. We've produced 65+ shows and 1,500+ episodes for founders, investors, and brands who take their voice seriously. We are selective on purpose. Every show is built around a host with a real point of view, a real audience worth building, and a willingness to put in the reps. We invest our brand, our network, and our team's time in every show that joins us. What hosts get when they join the network: a full studio team running their content function end-to-end. Strategy, booking, production, post, distribution, growth. Access to the guests, sponsors, and operators in our network. And a bar to clear with every episode that gets enforced by a team that cares about the work more than the deadline. We began in 2023 after producing a show called Hosted by POSH that we had no business producing. We rented a Tribeca mansion, hired an Emmy-winning crew, and pressed record. By episode 4 we were booking the biggest names in the industry. Three years later, the network exists. Based in LA, SF and NYC. If you're a founder, investor, or brand operator with something real to say and you want to do this at the level we're describing, we'd love to hear from you.
