In this powerful episode of We Do This Too Outdoors, host Courtney Williamson sits down with archer and outdoorsman William Alderman, whose passion for bowhunting and archery is matched only by his drive to represent a new face in the outdoor world. William shares how his journey began as a homeschooled kid in Florida, building makeshift bows from palm trees and shoelaces, before discovering his first real bow and diving deep into both the hunting and target archery scenes. From learning through trial and error to competing in ASA events, William opens up about the discipline, humility, and personal growth that come with the sport.Their conversation goes far beyond bows and arrows — it's about faith, family, and finding your purpose outdoors. William reflects on the mental side of archery, the lessons it teaches about patience and perseverance, and what it means to be a Black outdoorsman breaking barriers in the hunting and archery community. Together, he and Courtney talk about the shared mission of showing the next generation that “we do this too” — that the outdoors is for everyone, and that real success isn't about trophies but about balance, faith, and leaving a positive mark on the world.

Most people think valuations come down to simple formulas: EBITDA multiples, discounted cash flows, and comps. The reality in aerospace and defense is far more complex.  That's the reason so many owners and even investors misunderstand how acquisitions actually work in this industry. The truth is, not every buyer values the same business the same way. A small private buyer focuses on what they can finance. A mid-sized family-owned firm is driven by IRR and payback ratios.  Large public companies move based on stock price and accretion. And private equity? Despite having the cash, they often find themselves at a disadvantage, outbid, or outmaneuvered by buyers who can leverage existing capacity, sales teams, and operating talent. That's also why talent is one of the most overlooked yet critical pieces of any deal. The quality of management, the depth of customer relationships, and even succession planning can add or strip away millions from a sale price. In this episode, sell-side banker Bill Alderman returns for his quarterly M&A check-in. We break down the five buyer mindsets that actually drive valuation, and how management succession becomes the most valuable “intellectual property” in a deal. You'll also learn: The five buyer archetypes, and how each one calculates value differently Why “financeability” sets the floor and “EPS accretion” sets the ceiling The critical role of management teams and succession planning in deal pricing How strategic buyers use capacity, salesforce, and cost absorption to outbid private equity Why valuation isn't just math, it's psychology, timing, and leverage What today's seller-friendly market means for owners looking to exit in the next 12–24 months   Guest Bio William H. Alderman (Bill) is the Founding Partner of Alderman & Company. Bill is an M&A specialist in the middle market of the aerospace and defense industry with over $2 billion in mergers and acquisition-related transactions to his name. Prior to founding Alderman & Company in 2001, Bill worked for 15 years on Wall Street and in the Aerospace & Defense Industry, principally on M&A transactions in the middle market. His employers included BT Securities, Fieldstone, and General Electric. Bill is a Securities Principal registered with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) and has four securities industry licenses (Series 7, 24, 63, and 65). Bill is a commercial pilot and owns and operates a Cirrus SR22.

On today's program, sponsored by Elbit America, Bill Alderman of Alderman & Company, a boutique firm specializing in aerospace and defense mergers and acquisitions, joins Defense & Aerospace Report Editor Vago Muradian to discuss the impact of the US government shutdown on small companies across the sector and how soon before the closure becomes painful; how personnel cuts impact the contracting and regulatory oversight ecosystems; growth areas in the budget; what thoughtful supply chain management means as the Pentagon seeks to accelerate production of weapons large and small; the new administration's approach to merger and acquisition approvals; and the implications of the US government taking ownership stakes in companies that accept Pentagon investment funding.

Tune in here to this ​Monday's edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen! Breaking Brett Jensen kicks the show off by talking about the packed House Judiciary Committee hearing at the federal courthouse and the emotional atmosphere surrounding it. He shares audio from the powerful testimony of Steve Federico, the father of Logan Federico, who was brutally murdered while visiting friends. Federico’s heartbreaking account highlights the repeated failures of the justice system, as the accused had been arrested 39 times with 25 felonies, yet remained free. Jensen underscores the raw emotion in the room, noting that some audience members reacted throughout the hearing, including protestors who had made their way inside Also, Mia Alderman, grandmother of Mary Collins, delivered a powerful and emotional statement during the post-hearing media session. She recounted the horrific details of her granddaughter’s murder—stabbed over 130 times, left to bleed out in a bathtub, and hidden in a mattress. Alderman made it clear she was not there for political reasons, but to fight for justice and ensure Mary’s story is not forgotten. Despite suspects being charged, the case has yet to go to trial, and at least one of the accused remains out on bond. Her message was firm and heartfelt: “Mary matters.” Later, Jensen is joined by Congressman Pat Harrigan for an exclusive one-on-one interview to discuss the devastating rise in violent crime and the justice system failures that have allowed repeat offenders to remain on the streets. Harrigan reflects on the brutal murder of Iryna Zarutska in Charlotte, sharing how deeply it affected him as a father of two young daughters. He draws a direct connection between failed policies—particularly cashless bail—and preventable tragedies like the murders of Zarutska and Logan Federico. Harrigan criticizes a system that prioritizes criminals over victims and outlines how the federal government can respond, including using the power of the purse to pressure states into reform. He also responds to emotional testimony from victims’ families and highlights the need for real accountability. Listen here for all of this and more on Breaking With Brett Jensen.

Ben Bramsen - https://www.benforannapolis.com/ The future of Annapolis is on the ballot this year, and the first big step comes on Tuesday, September 16th, with the Democratic Primary. While there are no contested Republican primaries, Democratic voters will be making critical choices in Ward 1, Ward 3, Ward 4, Ward 6, and for Mayor. The winners here will move on to November's general election, where they'll be joined by candidates in Ward 2, Ward 5, Ward 7, and Ward 8. This election could not be more important. Annapolis will elect a new mayor and see a majority of the City Council change hands. If you've ever wanted your voice heard—if you've ever wanted change—this is the time to show up and vote. Local elections determine how our neighborhoods grow, how our streets are maintained, how our taxes are spent, and how our future is shaped. Every single vote matters, and staying home is simply not an option. To help voters make informed decisions, we invited every candidate in a contested race to join us for an unedited podcast conversation. Each candidate was asked the same questions—none of which were provided in advance—and all had the opportunity to answer freely, speak at length, and close with their own pitch to voters. These were not polished campaign ads, but candid conversations meant to give you a better sense of the people behind the campaign signs. We encourage every voter to listen to these conversations. They're raw, honest, and a chance to hear directly from the people who want to represent you. Don't miss this opportunity to make your own decision based on what you hear—not just what you see on a mailer or a yard sign. September 16th is your chance to make a real impact on the future of Annapolis. Mark your calendar, remind your neighbors, and most importantly—show up and vote.

It's time for the weird giant battle. One of these seems to happen every book, and it's where we get super confused. Alex's clay creation, Pottery Barn, battles a lumpy clay giant, while TJ battles Hrungnir. Magnus just kind of stands there. Relatable king. We both wish we got to see more of Alex and Magnus's relationship developing. They defeat the giant and his clay friend, and are told to travel to Flam and take the train. But before they can do that, Blitz and Hearth return. It's time to face Hearth's father once again. They go to Alfheim and Alderman's home is not how they left it. Instead of a mean dad, they must face a mean dragon. We get a bit too deep because of Manasa's Thor's Rumbling question. Erin's question is silly, per usual.

Commercial aviation is booming, but not for the reasons you'd expect. While the media fixates on tariffs, inflation, and geopolitical risks, industry insiders are seeing a very different picture. Airline profits are up, demand is strong, and aircraft backlogs are stretching eight years into the future. But underneath the optimism is something more nuanced: a market defined by high-cost inputs, a scramble for qualified labor, and a reshuffling of what counts as “value” in M&A. In this episode of The Aerospace Executive Podcast, M&A specialist Bill Alderman returns for his quarterly check-in on the state of the aerospace and defense sector.  We unpack the surprising resilience of commercial aviation, why job shops are suddenly hot properties, and the real reasons behind rising multiples in the MRO and manufacturing space.

CLICK HEREWho we areBlock Club Chicago is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit news organization dedicated to delivering reliable, relevant and nonpartisan coverage of Chicago's diverse neighborhoods. We believe all neighborhoods deserve to be covered in a meaningful way.We amplify positive stories, cover development and local school council meetings and serve as watchdogs in neighborhoods often ostracized by traditional news media.Ground-level coverageOur neighborhood-based reporters don't parachute in once to cover a story. They are in the neighborhoods they cover every day building relationships over time with neighbors. We believe this ground-level approach not only builds community but leads to a more accurate portrayal of a neighborhood.Stories that matter to you — every daySince our launch five years ago, we've published more than 25,000 stories from the neighborhoods, covered hundreds of community meetings and send daily and neighborhood newsletters to more than 130,000 Chicagoans. We've built this loyalty by proving to folks we are not only covering their neighborhoods, we are a part of them. Some of us have internalized the national media's narrative of a broken Chicago. We aim to change that by celebrating our neighborhoods and chronicling the resilience of the people who fight every day to make Chicago a better place for all.

Magnus and Hearth have a run-in with a fish dwarf (and possibly commits ecoterrorism). We learn about the inspiration for the Ring of Power in Lord of the Rings. Erin talks about dream journaling. Magnus and Hearth bring Mr. Alderman the treasure, and he goes crazy with power and possibly becomes a dragon. The retrieve the stone and leave Alfheim to meet up with Sam and Amir, where Sam nearly breaks Amir's brain exposing him to the world of norse mythology.

It may be episode 169 (nice), but the topics of these chapters are distinctively Not Nice! They're actually quite sad! Sam flies a plane (notably, without a license, which stresses Erin out) to drop Hearth, Magnus, and Stone Blitz off in Alfheim, to see a guy about a hot stone. The guy with the hot stone is unfortunately Hearth's abusive father. We hate Mr. Alderman. He would probably be into the Alpha Male culture if he was a human. We get to learn a lot about elf culture and society, and get a glimpse into Hearth's not-so-nice childhood.
