Is it true that some VCs get first dibs on YC companies before demo day?

I can confirm this is true, because YC staff members have explained to me that they bring in a small group of investors to mentor -- and because founders have confirmed it.

This is something I talked about on This Week in Startups, and frankly I think it has something to do with my "ban."
