#30 Selling your startup and buying it back with Steve Ridout

Hosted by Tobias Arweiler, an indie hacker who founded Ice Bear Labs, Code and Conquer-The Indie Hacker Podcast pulls up a chair for candid conversations with founders who build businesses on their own terms. This isn't about Silicon Valley glamour; it's about the real, often messy work of creating something from nothing. Each episode is a deep, one-on-one dialogue that moves beyond theory to focus on the tangible experiences, hard-won wisdom, and actionable insights of a different entrepreneur. You'll hear the specifics-the early days of grinding at $0 monthly recurring revenue, the unexpected hurdles, and the strategic decisions that led to breakthroughs. Tobias guides these discussions with a genuine curiosity, making space for stories that are as much about resilience and personal growth as they are about revenue graphs. For anyone curious about the solitary yet vibrant indie hacker path, this podcast offers a rare blend of practical advice and human perspective, documenting the quiet victories and lessons learned while building a company line by line. Tune in for honest talk about what it actually takes to conquer your own corner of the market.
