Meet the people behind useful work

If you’re looking for people to learn from, start with the work they’ve shared. These are the operators, builders, teachers, hosts, and friends I’ve learned and built with. Follow their photographs, conversations, and projects to find a useful lesson or someone whose work you want to explore.

The Content Factory gives those moments somewhere useful to live: record the conversation, publish the lesson, and link back to the people who shaped it.

Voices & hosts

The people proving that everyone should have a podcast.

Dealmakers & thinkers

People Dennis learns from — and builds entity homes for, sometimes as a gift.
