A Tribe of One

Welcome, welcome to another episode of A Tribe of One! Half the fun of doing this podcast has been getting to know the awesome people on the Sapien team better and learning more about their lives. And in this episode, we learned so much about Lynn Connolly, our chief operating & compliance officer.

Our guest this week is Greg Parker, a storied veteran of the tech industry and our very own chief technology officer at Sapien. Greg is a legend, having held leadership roles at tech enterprises and built multiple startups, all with successful exits.

We chatted this week with Auryn Macmillan, a leading voice in the Web3 space, about building solid groundwork for the Ethereum ecosystem and creating new tools for communities and value exchange.

Welcome back to A Tribe of One. We have another special episode with a member of the Sapien team. We sat down with our quality assurance lead Oscar Salazar to chat about family, fatherhood, gaming, and trying to leave a positive impact in the world.

Our guest this week was amazing. We had the good fortune to sit down with Dr. Robin Hanson, a professor of economics at George Mason University, and we dove into several of his groundbreaking ideas: his notion of the “Great Filter,” machines that emulate humans, and market-driven governance.

Join another Sapien team installment with our marketing lead, Jonathan Goodwin, as we discuss a wide range of topics, from the future of journalism, the power of storytelling, the erasure of cities from history, and how to rebuild property ownership.

John De Goes is a senior product manager at Sapien and has really helped us develop a humans-first product vision and design process. We talked at length with him about life as a digital nomad, finding meaning through music, and building successful products.

Dr. Po Chi Wu pushed us to consider what it really means to belong to a Tribe, from the perspective of someone who, for a long time, never felt that sense of belonging, that sense of place one feels in the safety and comfort of peers.

Our guest on this episode is a close friend of Sapien, the inimitable Dr. Kevin deLaplante, who has had an immeasurable impact on our brand and how we think about communities and tribalism. We had a great conversation about why it's so hard to have an authentic conversation on social media, what is the scout mindset and why is it so valuable, and the struggle for objective truth.
