About The Show

What Is The Kids Like Us?

The Kids Like Us is a podcast for the ones who think differently. The ones building something. The ones following curiosity instead of permission.

Every episode dives into the real story behind bold decisions — dropping out, starting over, taking risks, creating something from nothing.

just kids like us who went first.

Meet Your Host

Syd Meyer.

i'm 22. i dropped out of business school with a full ride and never looked back. best decision i ever made. now i run an agency, kite professionally, and travel constantly. i started this pod because when i was mid-change i couldn't find anyone who actually got it. this is the room i wish i had.

Got A Story Worth Telling?

Be A Guest On The Pod

We don't just put you on and let it roll. We prep your episode, build your narrative, and make a custom intro reel that places you on a pedestal. It's a great piece of content to have and it gets people excited about you before they even hit play.

Fill out the guest prep form and Syd will review it personally before your episode. Takes 5-10 minutes.
