New to Founder's Adda? Here's the lowdown on the show, the stories, and how to follow along.
Founder's Adda is a Hindi/Hinglish business and entrepreneurship podcast by Cubicles Coders. We sit down with real founders for honest, unfiltered conversations — asli kahaniyan, asli founders — covering how they started, what broke along the way, and how they actually grew.
Think of “adda” the way it's meant: a hangout where people swap real stories. That's the energy we bring to every episode.
It's Hinglish — the way founders actually talk. Conversations flow naturally between Hindi and English, so whether you're more comfortable in one or the other, you'll follow along easily.
Aspiring founders, early-stage entrepreneurs, side-hustlers, students, and anyone curious about how businesses really get built in India. If you've ever wondered what happens between the idea and the success story, this is your show.
Startup journeys, fundraising and bootstrapping, sales and marketing, building teams, product, failures and comebacks, side hustles, scaling, and the mindset behind it all. Real founders, real playbooks — no recycled gyaan.
