Ryan and Wade Foster have known each other through the internet for years before recently meeting in person in Mountain View. Ryan learned so much from the coffee chat that he asked if Wade would join the podcast to share some of his stories scaling Zapier.

Like Product Hunt, Zapier is a fully distributed team, although they're much bigger with 200 people in over 20 countries. They're helping makers create no-code apps and helping everyone get work done more efficiently.

Ryan and Wade talk about...

* Learnings from scaling a distributed team and Zapier's “delocation package.”

* Managing team dynamics in a fast-growing organization.

* What it's like to be CEO and the “cheat code” that CEOs get to keep in their back pocket.

* His thoughts on the no-code movement.

Joel also talks about some of this favorite products and the software the company uses to collaborate.
