How the list was made, and what we do with it

Chosen by hand
Every source is here because people who work in B2B SaaS & GTM say substantive things on it, not because it is large. Enough of them to cover the field, few enough to audit.
Checked before listing
Each feed is fetched before it goes on the list, and a feed that answers but has stopped publishing is a fail, not a warning. Every source is English-language and public.
Read, so you need not
You do not have to listen to all of them. Each new episode is read from its published transcript, or transcribed when there is none, and the claims worth keeping are pulled out with the timestamp where each was said.
Sent as a brief
The 12 lines that rank highest across the whole B2B SaaS & GTM beat go out daily or weekly. A claim several independent sources made ranks higher — that counts agreement, not accuracy.

The podcasts are one part of the beat. Every B2B SaaS & GTM source, all media — or just the blogs and newsletters.
