If there is such a flash card, this sounds like the easiest explanation. Someone swapped the card with a file that starts with the real announcement, then X minutes of silence, followed by joke sounds.

He seems to be (intentionally or not) applying the angel investing mentality on a larger scale. Not expecting each of these companies to work out, but having an outlier or two that covers the whole $100B+ fund. In that case these early loss
