About the show

The Deep Dive is a weekly technology and ideas podcast. We go long-form with researchers, founders, investors, and writers to understand the forces shaping our world. Independent. No VC funding. No ad network. Just good conversations.

Our listeners are senior technology professionals — staff engineers, founders, product leaders, and investors — the people who choose the tools their teams use. Independent and ad-network-free since 2020.

The hosts

  • Marcus Chen

    Co-host & Executive Producer

    Former technology journalist with bylines in WIRED, MIT Technology Review, and The Atlantic. Marcus has been reporting on the intersection of technology and society for over a decade. He started The Deep Dive in 2020 to have the longer, more honest conversations that print journalism wouldn't allow. His beat: power, labor, and the political economy of the internet.

  • Priya Mehta

    Co-host & Operator Perspective

    Product strategist and early-stage investor. Priya spent seven years inside Google and Stripe building products used by millions of people before leaving to advise founders. She brings the operator and investor lens to every conversation on The Deep Dive — asking the questions that only someone who has shipped at scale thinks to ask. She joined the show in Season 2 and hasn't left.
