If I had to design a MythBusters episode on myths about entrepreneurship, a few ideas would come to mind.

Have the hosts drink 4 cans of Red Bull and give them a test of cognitive function.

Play a soundtrack of ambient coworking space noises and try the same test.

Have women and men pitch the same business ideas and see which ones get funded. (Oh yeah, that’s already been done.)

Myths about entrepreneurship abound, even more so lately because startups have entered pop culture along with hoodies, working in garages, drinking Bulletproof Coffee, and generally crushing it.
