The SaaS Talk 50th Episode Credits

As readers will hopefully know, I’ve been running a podcast with Ray Rike for about the past year called SaaS Talk with the Metrics Brothers, Growth and CAC. (Ray’s growth and I’m CAC.) If that name rings familiar, it’s because our naming inspiration was Car Talk with the Tappet Brothers, Click and Clack.

We ended up not duplicating Car Talk’s radio call-in format, and unlike many podcasts, we’ve also chosen not to center the podcast around guest interviews. Instead, we talk — some might say bicker — for about 20 minutes roughly every week about SaaS metrics, benchmarks, and reports. We are the perfect treadmill companions.

For example, some of our recent episodes were focused on SaaS metrics like the Burn Multiple, the Rule of X, and the LTV/CAC ratio. We’ve also recently covered the Rubrik S-1 and the 2024 Bessemer State of the Cloud Report. This week we published our 50th episode, which was on the OneStream S-1 and subsequent IPO.

Because these topics can be, well — kind of dry — we try to have some fun with the podcast, squeezing in the odd bad (and some would say, “dad”) joke and generally trying to seize any opportunity to lighten up the content. One example is our legal trailer which not only covers important legal terms, but does so in a light-hearted way. (Then again, we rarely get feedback on the jokes, so I wonder if people aren’t listening to the trailer. It couldn’t possibly be that the jokes don’t land.)

So in the spirit of fun, we decided to do some Car Talk-style credits to celebrate our 50th episode. Here they are. While the first three rows are real, the rest are Car Talk-style. You can listen to the credits at the end of the episode.
