About This Podcast

One The Come Up is a weekly podcast where I (a high school student) interview founders, builders, and Wall Street denizens. The name of the podcast comes from the term on the come up, which means (according to Urban Dictionary): [something] on the vurge  [sic] of blowin' up or makin' some serious noise. Of course, this podcast is located around the corner from all seminal happenstance. For my listeners who take their lexicon from Webster's, this podcast is chic, urbane, and eclectic. The unifying thread? (this podcast does not consider itself a series of odds and ends): all my guests are at the start of their careers--their especially auspicious careers. And it's from this latter fact, that on takes the extra e, simultaneously commanding itself at the front of the cardinal numbers and becoming a homophone for won. Ibidem, One the Come Up.

No professional recording equipment gives this podcast a vintage feel.
