A podcast featuring the best product people in the world. Hosted by Jeff Morris Jr., founder of Chapter One and former VP of Product, Revenue at Tinder.
We launched Product Club a few weeks ago. I've always wanted to have an excuse to interview the best product people I meet and have conversations about what inspires them to build. Our first three interviews are with Josh Elman (VP of Product at Robinhood), Manik Gupta (CPO at Uber), and Adam Grenier (VP of Product at Lambda School).
The best way to describe the goal of the podcast: we want to be the equivalent of the "Directors Cut" that they used to have on DVDs where filmmakers tell the stories behind making movies, but for product.
I'd love to hear feedback on what you want to see in future episodes in terms of content or people!
@jmj I like the idea of exploring all the things that did not end up in the product (or were but got removed) to illustrate this part of design.
As users we mainly perceive the product, not the cooking, time to check out the kitchen!
Ohhh, this is going to be good. I expect nothing but the best to come from @jmj and crew. I know I'll be learning a lot and applying what I learn to Really Good Emails and my clients as well.
@whale Thanks Whale! The number of times I hear "Really Good Emails" mentioned in random everyday work conversations is amazing. You're building something special over there.
@jmj wow that's encouraging :). I'll share that with the team. Hoping to hear some good advice on product market fit on the show!

@jmj love the format!
If you're looking for requests for future episode content, I'd love to hear from product leaders & founders on the decision-making & prioritization that went into building the very first version of their product. Excited to see what you pull together!
Congrats Jeff, already a big fan. I like the format. It's hard to find 1-hour stretches, but 20-some minutes is perfect for a walk. Keep it up!

Awesome, I came across Product Club a few months back. You took some cool companies on for the first cohort. Congrats on that launch and this one too! I love the deleted scenes idea; there'll be so many good stories from that including scenes that made it at a later point or scenes that got removed despite making it in for a while.
Product people... Ryan Hoover (you cant not now :D), Des Traynor and Paul Adams, Melissa Perri, Patrick Campbell, Gibson Biddle, Oji Udezue, Lenny Rachitsky, Hiten Shah, Brianne Kimmel (my list goes on! :D). And now that I think of it, it would be cool if you got some from the indie makers side too, like Pieter Levels.
Be awesome to have a blend of people across enterprise, consumer, SAAS, marketplace etc...
Content-wise, top of mind is the biggest trade-offs choices, the ones that went very right, the ones that went very wrong.

Great idea Jeff, big fan of your content and contributions to the space. Please remember to interview black and latinx women. There’s an abundance of tech podcasts featuring 95% men, happy to recommend some impressive female product leaders. ❤️
