Fayl Tales
Behind every startup success story is a trail of mistakes, pivots, broken plans and brilliant comebacks.
Fayl Tales is the podcast where entrepreneurs, founders, investors and early employees share the real side of building something new - the failures that shaped them, the lessons they learned the hard way, and the resilience it takes to keep going.
Hosted by Loveth, each episode dives into the raw, funny and honest moments most business stories leave out - so you can learn faster, fail smarter, and feel less alone on your own journey.
Follow the show for weekly conversations that prove: failure isn’t the end, it’s part of the story.

What happens when two industry heavyweights—one from high finance, the other from cutting-edge tech—join forces to create a revolutionary startup? In this episode of Fayl Tales, I sit down with a guest who has worn some of the most prestigious titles in finance: Vice President at Morgan Stanley, Director at Merrill Lynch, and a guiding force behind multiple IPOs.
Together with a tech visionary, he built a product before WhatsApp even existed—an innovation that could have changed the way we communicate. So, why did it fizzle out instead of taking off?
Join us for a deep dive into what went wrong, what could have been, and why sometimes, playing it too safe can be the biggest risk of all.
