“I recently listened to episode 433 (the knitting dot com episode) and it is clear to me that these guys are mostly just smoke and mirrors. They claim to have great insight and market knowledge, but they also blatantly and obviously skipped the part of actually researching the new industry they want to “lead”. Their assumptions are glaring, their anti-Asian racism is blatant and offensive, and their ageism and misogyny are implied if not clearly articulated. They have become the laughing stock of the crafting world and it only took two blog posts and a podcast to get them there. I wouldn’t pay for “secret sauce” business advice from people who could so thoroughly and deftly underestimate, disdain, and alienate their intended customers all by failing the first step in any successful business- know your core competency.”
