In May 2020, a viral video filmed by two young men pushed them to the top of everyone’s news feed. Suddenly, it seemed the whole world knew what had happened to Abdi and Salman while they were working out in the gym of the Minneapolis office building they leased for their growing business. In this episode, we get past the story of what happened to Abdi and Salman and dive into the bigger story: who they are.

Correction: In the episode, we refer to Firefox as being made by Microsoft. Firefox is a product of Mozilla, not Microsoft.
