Steli: And in today's episode of The Startup Chat we're gonna have a special episode which is gonna be a website tear down episode. So all of you out there, we asked for submissions a few days ago and we got a ton of people submitting their websites, asking Hiten and I to just look at the site and and provide feedback and tear it down and be hypercritical and very, very honest.

That's already something that registers for me and makes me confused about what thi...
