  • Born to Build: Companies, Canada, and a New Musical Instrument with Serial Entrepreneur Daniel Debow

    Born to Build: Companies, Canada, and a New Musical Instrument with Serial Entrepreneur Daniel Debow
    Oct 26 2026
    Join Alex Tapscott as he decodes the world of building in Canada with special guest Daniel Debow, Founder of Debow Musical Instruments and chair of Build Canada. Listen in as Daniel, the serial founder behind Workbrain, Rypple and Helpful and a former Shopify VP, introduces Torch. It's a new electroacoustic "campfire instrument" made of real wood, and it has first-timers playing a song in minutes. He explains how magnets vibrate the wood to make sound, why 90% of beginner guitarists quit within a year, and why he calls Torch a "mission project" rather than a passion project. Alex and Daniel also get into Shopify's hypergrowth years and why applications build platforms, not the other way around. They cover how Build Canada grew from AI-drafted policy memos into polls, candidate surveys and meetups across the country, and why Canada should aim to be number one rather than settle for keeping pace.

  • How Decentralized Compute Markets Solve AI Bottlenecks with Greg Osuri of Akash Network

    How Decentralized Compute Markets Solve AI Bottlenecks with Greg Osuri of Akash Network
    Oct 21 2026
    Join Alex Tapscott as he decodes the world of AI compute with returning guest Greg Osuri, Founder of Akash Network. Listen in as Greg explains why one lab's soft quarter says little about real demand when only 2.4 million people use agents and supply chains are already maxed out, with four-year waits for transformers and fourteen-year waits for turbines. He explains why AI will become a utility like the internet rather than a subscription like the news, why a $200 plan buying roughly $8,000 of compute means the subsidized party is ending, and how Akash is nearing a trillion tokens a month while doubling monthly. Alex and Greg also get into what's really stalling the build-out — energy, permits, community pushback and the leverage behind the CoreWeave jitters — how the shift from training to inference opens the door to homes, offices and 10-kilowatt clusters, why frontier GPUs now trade only through bilateral contracts and what tradable compute contracts could change, and why Greg believes "homes will be the future of AI."

  • The Man in the Arena: Olympic Wrestler Turned Founder Jeff Adamson of Neo Financial on Why Canada Is Playing to Win

    The Man in the Arena: Olympic Wrestler Turned Founder Jeff Adamson of Neo Financial on Why Canada Is Playing to Win
    Sep 28 2026
    Join Alex Tapscott as he decodes the world of fintech with special guest Jeff Adamson, co-founder of Neo Financial and Skip the Dishes. Listen in as Jeff traces the path from a five-time national wrestling champion training in the attic of a Saskatoon furniture warehouse to building two of Canada's best-known startups — and why seeing someone from the block over become a champion is what makes ambition feel possible. He explains how Skip nearly died the day it added delivery, why he calls 2008 "the best marketing coup the banks could have ever asked for," and how Neo negotiates wholesale deposit rates on behalf of billions to pass the savings back, Costco-style. Alex and Jeff also get into what breaks when stablecoins, real-time rails, open banking and agentic finance arrive at once — hot money sweeping between institutions overnight, and bidding wars in the split second between tap and approval — why credit bureaus built before women could vote are still gating home ownership, and why being great in Canada isn't enough.
