Trailer

VC Basics is a venture capital podcast from the VCFM network designed to make venture capital understandable and practical.

Hosted by Jon Bradshaw (founder of Codebase.com and Appointment.com) and Peter Harris (founding partner at University Growth Fund), the show breaks down how venture capital firms work, how investors make decisions, and how founders can run a strong startup fundraising process.

Episodes are short and focused (10–20 minutes), each tackling one core topic — from early-stage investing and VC jobs, to term sheets, fundraising strategy, market cycles, and what investors are looking for right now.

Built for two audiences: aspiring venture capitalists who want to break into VC, and founders preparing to raise or already raising venture funding. VC Basics delivers clear explanations, real-world context, and practical insights from both the founder and investor perspectives.

If you want to understand venture capital — without the jargon or theory — this is where to start.
