colossus

The mission of Colossus is to become the leading destination to learn about business building and investing. Driven to provide the best business and investing information, as well as the best way to discover, search, and consume it. Today, the platform is the home of the podcasts Invest Like the Best and Founder's Field Guide with Patrick O'Shaughnessy. It was co-founded in 2020 by Patrick O'Shaughnessy, Damian Brychcy, Joe Berg, and Josh Joseph. Their podcasts get over 1 million downloads per month. They are working on launching new podcasts and audio documentaries over the next few months. If you love business or investing in content or want to build the future of audio education, check out the open roles.    The name and logo are inspired by Tim Urban's post on the history of human knowledge. Where he referred to the growing tower of human knowledge as the "human colossus". They are building a tower of knowledge where they add units of knowledge every week, block by block. The Colossus—collective knowledge—is what makes humans distinct as a species. It is the root of progress, and it will be a constant reminder to add blocks to the tower so that the user gets satisfied and enhances their knowledge.
