Nathan Baschez (Product Hunt, Gimlet Media) is one of the most prolific people I know, having worked at half a dozen of the coolest startups I can think of, all in just the past ten years. I first met Nathan back in 2012 while we were working at General Assembly in New York City. At the time General Assembly had just acquired Nathan's startup Dash — an early learn to code app much like Codecademy. Since then Nathan has gone on to co-create Product Hunt, launch HardBound (a visual storytelling app), as well as dedicate his talents to Gimlet Media and Substack.

In my chat with Nathan we discuss:

How to design a career
Strategies for choosing projects
Behind the scenes of early days at General Assembly, and Product Hunt
What it's like to work at Gimlet Media (home to the Reply All Podcast, Startup, and the CrimeTown Podcast)
Tips for staying focused when learning to code for the first time
