I made this episode about two years ago and I wanted to repost it in case you miss it the first time because it's one of my favorite episodes that I've ever made and because I'm currently working on another new episode that's going to be about Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant.

And there's actually a great Michael Jordan's story in this episode about when JZ

had dinner with Michael. There's also a reference to my daily practice, something else I learned from both Jay-Z and Michael Jordan,

but there's a reference in this episode about my daily practice of reading and re-reading my

notes and highlights in what I call this gigantic searchable database.

You'll hear it about like 11, 12 minutes into this episode.

But I reference this gigantic searchable database

of all my notes and highlights,

the fact that they're in this app called Reedwise.

And I actually didn't know it at the time I made

this episode but two years later I would partner with Reedwise to build a version where

you can actually see exactly what I see so you can get access to all my notes and highlights

this gigantic searchable database on the history of entrepreneurship by

signing up for Founders Notes. That's Founders with an S. Founders Notes.com. You can sign

up by going to Founders Notes.com. You can sign up by going to Founders Notes.com

and now for a limited time only you can sign up and pay once and get access to

every highlight and note I have ever done and every highlight and note I will ever do. No ongoing subscription, pay once, you're in forever.

This becomes a tool that you can then use your entire career to tap into the collective

knowledge of history's greatest entrepreneurs. Do not dilly-dally. Time is

limited and this offer could end at any time. Sign up now at founders Notes.com. That is Founders With An S. Founders Notes.

And I hope you enjoy this episode on Jay-Z.

It was the 70s and heroin was still heavy in the hood.
