The Origin Archive Dialogues

The Origin Archive Dialogues is part of The Archive Network by Jonkai Ventures, a collection of podcasts dedicated to the stories that shaped our world. Every episode is a conversation. Aurelius and Malik, curators of The Origin Archive, take a single company — 3M, Samsung, 7-Eleven, AB InBev — and trace how it actually came to exist. One follows the build: the founding bet, the product nobody wanted, the decade of grinding that turned a workshop into an institution. The other presses on what the official history leaves out — who paid for the growth, which rivals were crushed, and how much of the founding myth survives contact with the record. These are not summaries. Each episode is one complete story, examined from both sides in a single sitting. The Archive Network is an independent, solo-run project. Every archive, podcast and documentary is free — no ads, no paywalls.
