Neil and Eric unpack how to measure the real value of an X account beyond views, why LinkedIn drives 50x more leads for Neil, and the trap of chasing audience capture instead of revenue. They dig into ICP-focused content vs broad TAM plays, parabolic AI stocks like AXT and Lumentum tied to indium phosphide bottlenecks, and the storytelling lessons behind them. The episode closes with a sharp breakdown of rebranding, why Intercom launched Fin, and why Eric spun up Single Brain instead of bolting AI onto Single Grain.
