The Origin Story
LexBeyond wasn’t a part of the original grand plan–it emerged from our curiosity and experimentation. Initially, we were focused on writing our two blogs, Full Court Press and Finance2027, with a plan for future video production. After sharing one of our works with a videographer, he surprised us with a question: “Why not do a podcast?” He shared a sample with us and it was certainly captivating. When we asked how he made it, he simply said, “I fed your video transcript to Google Notebook.”
And just like that, LexBeyond was born.
I Like Hearing From Lex and Bianca! Who Are They?
They’re engaging, insightful and full of personality–but they’re not real people. Lex and Bianca are our virtual hosts, “hired away” from Google. While they still keep their day jobs over there, they moonlight for us, bringing life and voice to our thoughts. Without them, LexBeyond wouldn’t exist.
What do Lex and Bianca discuss?
Lex and Bianca explore the fascinating intersection of law and markets. Their conversations dive into prediction markets, crypto, and anything that touches these four words: Investing, speculation, gambling and gaming. If it’s legally complex and financially intriguing, they’re talking about it!
How Do You Produce These Podcasts?
We carefully source relevant material, combine it with a custom-made source document and then feed it all to Google Notebook which produces a base episode. We then make any needed adjustments and once satisfied with the flow we publish.
