The Startup Podcast Under 15 Minutes You’ll Actually Finish

Let’s be honest—most startup podcasts are too long.

Hour-long interviews. Endless intros. Rambling advice. If you’re a builder trying to launch a feature, fix a bug, write marketing copy, and onboard users in a single day, you don’t have time for that.

That’s why we created Built This Week — a startup podcast under 15 minutes per episode, made specifically for indie hackers, solo founders, and product people who need momentum, not monologues.

It’s quick. It’s real. And it’s what we wish existed when we started shipping.

Why Short-Form Startup Content Works

Time is a founder’s most limited resource. Whether you’re working full-time on your startup or hustling after hours, your podcast queue probably has more ambition than attention.

That’s why short, focused episodes win. You get:

• Real insights without filler
• Useful takeaways in one sitting
• Ideas you can apply this week
• A dose of motivation that fits into your routine

Built This Week is built for your builder brain. It’s like a weekly check-in from other solo founders — without taking up your entire lunch break.

What You Get in Each <15-Minute Episode

Every episode follows the same structure, so you know exactly what you’re getting:

• What we built this week
  A real product update — a shipped feature, a launch, an MVP, or even a failed test. Shared by founders building in public.
• Tool of the Week
  A tool, platform, or API we actually used. Whether it’s AI-powered, no-code, or just incredibly useful, it’s always tested in a real build.
• News that matters
  Startup, AI, and product news curated for indie hackers and early-stage builders. No VC gossip. No drama. Just relevant shifts in tools, tech, or strategy.

That’s it. Each episode is tight, useful, and designed to leave you more energized than when you hit play.

Made for People Who Build

We didn’t set out to make a startup podcast. We just wanted to share what we were building. What worked. What broke. What we were learning — while still in the middle of it.

So Built This Week became a product journal in podcast form. It’s not post-success storytelling. It’s live, imperfect, and honest.

If you’re looking for content that matches your pace — small updates, weekly progress, consistent motion — this podcast is for you.

Why Listeners Stick With It

We’ve heard from subscribers who listen:

• During a quick walk before their work session
• While making breakfast or coffee
• As a Monday morning “momentum hit”
• On a short commute or gym warmup

It fits into your life, fuels your workflow, and helps you feel less alone in the solo-founder grind.

No guests. No long-winded intros. No bloated episodes. Just builders, building.
