Super Troopers premiered at Sundance to a receptive, giggling audience, but judging by its score and Rotten Tomato reviews, you’d think it flopped. Writer, director, comedian and recent founder Jay Chandrasekhar has never felt right about criticism from random strangers online.

He talks to Darrell and Jordan about using a Hollywood approach to funding a tech company and how he thinks about changing consumer behavior.
