This is the first episode ever of the First1000!

Having spent a good deal of time in the US grappling with slow payment systems and financial tech that is sub-par compared to the UK I was super excited to site down with Lamine @ Joust.

Their journey to date has been crazy. They pulled off an enormous pivot from their original product in the best way possible and are building a banking brand that is changing lives.

Americans in general are cautious with financial products so I dove in to find out how you sell a startup bank to the population. The story was incredible and thanks again to Lamine for joining me!

Warning - this one gets a bit banking nerd heavy
