Lucas and Luna sit across from each other at a Sand Hill Road conference table, a term sheet between them, dissecting the mechanics of venture capital. Each episode of The Venture Capital Podcast with Fexingo is a real-time examination of startup investing: the arithmetic of liquidation preferences, the nuance of anti-dilution clauses, the signal in a down round. They never opine for the sake of opinion. Instead, they pull live data — deal flow from PitchBook, valuation trends from Carta, IPO filings from the SEC — and ask the questions a thoughtful investor would ask: What does this cap table tell us about founder alignment? How do these LP terms shift the fund's risk profile? Is this market multiple justified by the unit economics? Lucas, with his journalist's precision, sets the scene: a round closes, a unicorn flatpacks, a new fund announces. Luna, the engaged interlocutor, challenges assumptions, pokes at the fine print, and connects the numbers to the people behind them. They name names — Accel, Sequoia, a16z — but never for hype; always for the lesson embedded in the deal. This show is for founders who've heard 'market standard' one too many times, VCs who want to sharpen their thesis, and anyone who believes that the best venture conversations are about structure, not spin. What happens when the term sheet you're handed isn't the one you thought you'd see?
