Snigdha Sur, founder and CEO of The Juggernaut

Why did you choose this theme?

Most business podcasts look backward at already-successful companies or leaders, focusing attention on (mostly white, mostly older) men in the C-suite. I love listening to podcasts and stories that break down the stereotype of success. At the end of the day, it’s not about “How I Built This,” but “How I’m *Building* This.”

Non-TechnicalTerri Burns (30 Under 30, Venture Capital) is a lightning rod for bagel controversyIn this podcast, San Francisco-based comedian Alexis Gay interviews influential folks from tech, media, business, and beyond with one stipulation: they can’t talk about anything on their resume during the interview. EarBuds curator Snigdha Sur loves this particular episode because Alexis interviews Terri Burns, one of the youngest venture capitalists.

The a16z PodcastOf Emojis and Innovation

The a16z Podcast discusses tech and culture trends, news, and the future. In this episode, Sonal Chokshi chats with Jenny 8. Lee about all things emojis. This is a great deep dive into how the Unicode Consortium approves new emojis and the business of tech decision-making. And it’s two women talking about tech. We love to see it.

SwayWhat’s Next in Your Netflix Queue?In Sway, host and journalist Kara Swisher investigates power: who has it, who’s been denied it, and who dares to defy it. EarBuds curator Snigdha Sur has always thought that if anyone could help globalize or democratize “content” globally, it would be Netflix. This episode is about Bela Bajaria, the head of global TV at Netflix, and the person behind some of the biggest titles for the streaming giant, from “Indian Matchmaking” to “The Fame Game.”
