Here we put the words of our wildly popular venture capital podcast, Equity, into Extra Crunch members’ eyes instead of their ears. This week, TechCrunch’s Kate Clark and Crunchbase News’s Alex Wilhelm get rapid-fire on funding news from around the way. And because they both talk so fast, they got a lot in. > In case you hadn’t heard, Andreessen Horowitz relinquished its status as a venture capital firm and registered all 150 of its employees as financial advisors. Kate and Alex dug in a bit more about that story. And who is sick of hearing about Lyft’s IPO? Nobody? Great. Because they talked about that and the implications of Uber’s imminent journey into the land of the public.
