It's the conversation founders don't get to have anywhere else. Think 60 Minutes, but for entrepreneurs. We sit down with the most interesting people in business and go past the highlight reel, past the pitch, past the polished version they give every other podcast. We go into the mud with them. The 2 a.m. doubts. The bet that almost ended everything. The moment they wanted to quit and didn't. You'll hear from household names like Gary V, Codie Sanchez, Rob Dyrdek, and Tom Bilyeu, and just as often from founders you've never heard of who are building something the world needs to know about. Either way, the goal is the same: a real conversation that makes you laugh, makes you think, and sometimes catches you off guard with how much it makes you feel. This is where the story behind the success finally gets told. This is \"Founder's Story.\"","last_synced_at":"2026-07-19T22:17:12.558200+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/founder-s-story-648906"},"episode":{"title":"Tech Employees Are Being Robbed Of Billions | Ep. 417 with Oren Barzilai CEO & Founder of Equitybee","slug":"tech-employees-are-being-robbed-of-billions-ep-417-with-oren-barzilai-ceo-founder-of-equitybee","published_at":"2026-07-09T11:27:05+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/founder-s-story-648906/tech-employees-are-being-robbed-of-billions-ep-417-with-oren-barzilai-ceo-founder-of-equitybee","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/founder-s-story-648906","url":"https://bleav.com/shows/founders-story/","audio_url":"https://clrtpod.com/m/pscrb.fm/rss/p/mgln.ai/e/1184/afp-969439-injected.calisto.simplecastaudio.com/a7765f3f-02e4-4ded-bca1-01a20b7f82a5/episodes/9d31d710-2fd8-48b8-bc03-bd9f55cbe664/audio/128/default.mp3?aid=rss_feed&awCollectionId=a7765f3f-02e4-4ded-bca1-01a20b7f82a5&awEpisodeId=9d31d710-2fd8-48b8-bc03-bd9f55cbe664&feed=NVPdHs07","summary":"Daniel Robbins sits down with Oren Barzilai, Co-founder and CEO of Equitybee, to unpack the hidden world of startup equity and why employees may be losing tens of billions of dollars in unexercised stock options every year. Oren shares how watching early employees at his previous startup miss out on life-changing acquisition payouts inspired Equitybee, why startup employees must understand equity as seriously as salary, and how one employee used the platform to turn an equity opportunity into $5.2 million. The conversation also explores private markets, pre-IPO investing, financial freedom, and why the employees building billion-dollar companies deserve to participate in the value they helped create.","meta_description":"Daniel Robbins sits down with Oren Barzilai, Co-founder and CEO of Equitybee, to unpack the hidden world of startup equity and why employees may be losing…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1701,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/founder-s-story-648906/episodes/tech-employees-are-being-robbed-of-billions-ep-417-with-oren-barzilai-ceo-founder-of-equitybee/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/founder-s-story-648906/tech-employees-are-being-robbed-of-billions-ep-417-with-oren-barzilai-ceo-founder-of-equitybee.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
