It’s Quarantine Week! We’re recording Casual Pour from our homes over Zoom. This week, Brett Harrison - Founder and CEO of Roomie - joins us for a conversation about how to be an entrepreneur in college without sacrificing your life as a college student. Roomie takes in your typical dorm room twin bed and rents out comfortable, full-size mattresses to students across 20+ universities and growing.

First, we’ll talk about how our companies are fairing during Coronavirus and then bring in a few of our friends to talk about how their businesses, industries, portfolio companies, etc. are being impacted by the virus.


Our friends this week:

Eman Pahlavani - COO of HUNGRY Marketplace

Dan Fleischmann - VP at KitchenFund (By Chloe, Sweetgreen, Gregory’s Coffee, and more)

Majd Maksad - CEO of Status Money

Kendrick Kho - Investor at Global Founders Capital (Facebook, Slack, LinkedIn, Canva, HelloFresh, and more)


After our conversation with Brett, we’ll talk through the Casino stocks getting hammered and what the future of gambling looks like.
