Interesting that none of these are partners (all previous announcements have been partners, I think).
Also super interesting to hire a psychologist! Founder breakups and founder dynamics are one of the hardest things about early stage startups (as YC has said before), so this seems an important step in trying to prevent those, and lead to overall more successful companies and investments! I wonder how long before every investment from will have require cofounders to go to couples counseling like the Genius folks do.
