Rip. Ship. Share.
Hey friends!
Want physical cards shipped to you?
Here’s the deal:
This morning I had an idea—why not open some of these booster packs live and share the excitement with all of you?
Rip-and-ship streams have been blowing up lately, and they’re a ton of fun, so I decided to cook 👨🍳
Here’s me opening the very first pack on camera for my new friend Nico (who’s currently working on the very cool vibechain).
they got some nice pulls!
So… you want cards?
Fill out this quick Google Form (just name + email)
3 winners will be picked randomly from the entries and I’ll make a video like this next week rippin’ their packs!
But… there’s another way!
Get 10 people to subscribe to this newsletter and you get a guaranteed pack! (limited to the first ten people).
So think of a few people who might love this project and…👇
Thanks for spreading the word and I look forward to ripping a pack for you!
If you’re new to the rip-and-ship world: I open the packs on video, share the pulls with everyone, and then winners can choose to have their cards shipped directly to them!
I can’t wait to share more packs with you all—good luck!
Behind the Scenes #FounderMode
The filming setup was… scrappy.
PVC pipes, a borrowed desk lamp, and my trusty iPhone hanging precariously overhead + unflattering up-the-nose angle
nice 😎📸
As a successful founder friend told me this week, “don’t be embarrassed about the scrappy early versions - they’re authentic and fun to share later on when you’re crushing it.”
Okay! But it still feels a bit vulnerable.
Card Transformations
Spent Sunday afternoon working on physical-to-digital card transformations for an upcoming trailer.
Quick Project Updates
📍 Detailed roadmap: I mapped out the next steps in preparation for our upcoming drop.
📚 Must-Read Recommendation: Make by Pieter Levels. This is an essential guide for any solopreneur journey—practical, tactical, and genuinely inspirational. Even just the TLDR at the top is gold. Also, don’t miss his episode with Lex Friedman. Shout out to my friend Ethan for reminding me of Pieter’s work!
🎨 Biggest Card Set Yet: We’re back to work on our next massive set, aiming for 200 cards. Being in San Francisco has been incredibly inspiring—ideas are everywhere here!
Thanks for following along—see you next week! And remember to share this email with friends for a chance to get a pack next week!
With metta,
