Ep. 1: Translating Design Principles from Physical Spaces to Software with David Fano, CEO at Teal
Welcome to "Minimum Viable Podcast" – a new podcast and content series that goes beyond the surface to explore the depths of product creation. Each episode, hosted by Elliott Poppel, is a masterclass in innovation, combining deep insights, cross-disciplinary perspectives, and hands-on product analysis. From the psychology of user behavior to the aesthetics of design, from the cutting edge of technology to the timeless principles of storytelling, MVP leaves no stone unturned in its quest to uncover the secrets of product success.
What sets MVP apart is its commitment to providing listeners with an unparalleled, behind-the-scenes look at the product development process. Through regular "Product Teardown" segments, Elliott and his guests perform in-depth analyses of successful (and sometimes unsuccessful) products, examining their design, user experience, and business strategy. These teardowns provide a rare, insider's view of what makes a product thrive or fail in the real world.
By bringing in guests from diverse fields such as product leaders, psychology, anthropology, and even art and literature, the podcast explores how insights from these disciplines can inform and inspire product development. This cross-disciplinary and collaborative approach challenges listeners to think about product innovation in new and creative ways, sparking fresh ideas and unconventional solutions.
Whether you're a seasoned product leader or just starting your journey, MVP is your guide to the cutting edge of product development. Each episode is carefully crafted to provide actionable insights, creative inspiration, and a fresh perspective on the art and science of creating products that make a difference.
MVP is produced by Thursday Labs, ensuring each episode is brimming with substance, profound insights, and aligns seamlessly with our audience's ambitions and interests.
