This is our Wednesday show, where we niche down and focus on a single topic, or theme. This is our sweet spot: going beyond definitions and into the dirty and deep impact of how a phenomenon could impact startups and tech. We are hoping to explore more than answer, and debate more than agree.

This week we're riffing on the impending Y Combinator demo day class, all hailing from the Winter 2021 cohort. As we stated on the show, we're not saying that these are the only startups worth looking at. They're simply the startups from the batch that TechCrunch has already covered, and some other favs from our eyes and those of a few investors.Credits: Equity is produced by Theresa Loconsolo with editing by Kell.

Bryce Durbin is our Illustrator. We'd also like to thank the audience

development team and Henry Pickavet, who manages TechCrunch audio

products.
