Episode #10 of Yesterday:

This week, we cover the life story of John Andrew Entwistle.

He was once a Formula race car driver, during which he broke his back multiple times, and he even threw a house party that shut down his entire town.

Amidst similar teenage years, John Andrew was sued by Microsoft, where he subsequently cc’d his dad on the email — a famed lawyer who did the Bernie Madoff and FTX cases.

Later on, John Andrew became a Thiel Fellow and then sold his first company — Coder.com. From there, he started Wander.com a luxury home rental company that’s now worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

John Andrew has some of the most unique life stories and is a sheer force to compete with. Hope you enjoy!
