  • #6: S1E6 - Co-founding CityMaps (and doing what's right), product management, and NYC poker scene
    Apr 30 2025

    Fed up with his friends complaining about the price disparities of Zyn (nicotine pouches) across NYC, Will Goldman sat down with his co-founder and did something about it. With a background in product management, programming, and entrepreneurship, they found immediate success with ZynMaps, an app that displayed stores selling Zyn and their prices in a map based format. Discontent with the values promoted by ZynMaps, Will and his co-founder decided to pivot to CityMaps, an app that displays prices and/or ratings for specific foods, drinks, and qualities across NYC restaurants and stores. Barely have had time to mention his love for poker and career in product management!
