Episode Description:Steve Walsh didn't set out to become an angel investor. After 25 years as a Fortune 10 executive, helping build Cox Communications and Comcast's B2B divisions from zero to billions, he walked away from corporate life to help early-stage founders. What started as casual mentoring at demo days evolved into Hands-On Angel, where Steve has now invested in 64 companies with remarkable success.In this candid conversation with host Angelo Roberts, Steve shares the unvarnished truth about startup fundraising, why most founders approach it wrong, and what it really takes to build a successful company.Steve doesn't sugarcoat anything. His approach is refreshingly direct in an industry full of polite rejections and vague feedback. Whether you're a founder struggling to raise capital or an aspiring investor, this episode delivers actionable insights you won't hear elsewhere.The Default Alive Strategy Why reaching break-even changes everything about your fundraising position and gives you the optionality to raise on your terms, not out of desperation.Customer Acquisition vs. Investor Meetings Steve's mathematical approach to when founders should stop pitching investors and start selling to customers instead.What Real Commitment Looks Like Stories of founders who sold their houses, moved countries, and put everything on the line for their vision - and why this matters to investors.The Hands-On Difference How Steve's network-driven approach has helped 35 of his 64 investments reach Series A, with 8 exits ranging from $15M to $400M.Investment Philosophy Beyond Startups Steve's diversification strategy across wine, art, crypto, and real estate, plus his discipline of saving 30% of income regardless of salary level.The Marco Benitez story about selling a house and moving from Mexico City to Miami in two weeks demonstrates what "all-in" really means to successful founders.Steve's direct advice to a founder making $10K monthly but needing $18K to break even: stop talking to investors and go find 7-8 more customers instead.His honest assessment of different startup ecosystems and why 90% of his fundraising happens outside his home city of Boston.This episode will challenge how you think about fundraising timing, investor relationships, and what really matters for building a sustainable business. Steve's transparency about what investors actually look for could save you months of wasted effort.Learn from someone who's built multiple billion-dollar businesses and successfully transitioned that expertise into early-stage investing. Steve's framework for evaluating founders and his hands-on approach offer a blueprint for adding real value beyond capital."When it comes to sales, you control the timing, you control how many people you talk to, you control your pricing. When you talk to investors, you control none of that.""If you don't want my help, do not take my money. You're wasting my time. Don't take it because I will be your worst nightmare if you don't let me help you."Find Steve on LinkedIn as "The Hands-On Angel" or visit handsonangel.com. He's launching the Funding Accelerator course with 300 founders already on the waitlist.In a startup ecosystem often criticized for lack of transparency, Steve Walsh represents a different approach - one based on honest feedback, genuine commitment to founder success, and the understanding that building great companies requires more than just capital.Whether you're raising your first round or your fifth, this conversation will change how you approach investors and think about building a sustainable, scalable business.Subscribe to The Ramblings for more unfiltered conversations with the investors, founders, and industry leaders who are actually moving the needle in startup world.What Makes This Episode Essential ListeningKey Topics CoveredStandout MomentsFor FoundersFor InvestorsMemorable QuotesConnect with Steve WalshWhy This Episode Matters

Les deux géants d'Hollywood accusent la plateforme d'avoir pillé leurs contenus pour entraîner leur intelligence artificielle générative. Un procès qui pourrait amener la justice américaine à encadrer les pratiques du secteur. Midjourney est un « puits sans fond de plagiat ». Dans leur argumentaire fourni à un tribunal de Los Angeles, Disney et Universal accusent sans détours la plateforme d'intelligence artificielle qui fut l'une des toutes premières à permettre au grand public de générer des images sur demande, d'avoir pillé leurs créations pour entraîner leur IA. Un procès qui promet d'être retentissant. D'abord par la taille des plaignants : à eux Disney, qui possède notamment les licences Star Wars et Marvel, et Comcast, la maison mère d'Universal et de ces milliers de films, de Jurassic Park à Fast and Furious qui ont façonné la pop culture américaine, pèsent plus de 300 milliards de dollars. Les avocats des deux mastodontes n'ont eu aucun mal à trouver des exemples d'images générées par Midjourney représentant Yoda, Shrek, Iron Man, Bart Simpson ou l'un des innombrables personnages sous licence Disney ou Universal. Un des grands patrons de Disney résume la situation : « Nous croyons dans le potentiel de l'IA, mais le piratage reste du piratage même quand il est réalisé par une intelligence artificielle. » « Fair use » ou « piratage » ? En s'attaquant à Midjourney, les studios posent la question du cadre juridique de l'IA. Ses défenseurs parlent de « fair use », « d'usage raisonnable » en français, une exception au droit d'auteur aux États-Unis qui permet de citer une œuvre en utilisant un court extrait dans une vidéo, par exemple. Comme l'administration Trump a refusé de légiférer au niveau fédéral pour « ne pas entraver l'avance technologique des États-Unis », le secteur évolue dans le flou. Les grands patrons du secteur ont d'ailleurs largement soutenu Donald Trump lors de la dernière élection, justement dans l'espoir de continuer à évoluer sans garde-fou susceptible de freiner leur avancée. Avec ce procès, la justice pourrait être amenée à cadrer les choses et à forcer les entreprises du secteur à payer les détenteurs des droits des millions de contenus en ligne que ces entreprises ont utilisés pour entraîner leurs IA. L'IA, déjà une réalité à Hollywood Paradoxalement, les grands studios de cinéma n'ont pas attendu pour se tourner vers les outils d'intelligence artificielle, y voyant une source alléchante d'économie. Il peut être tentant en effet de recourir à ces outils pour générer des effets spéciaux à moindre coût ou changer une ligne de dialogue en post-production, sans avoir à retourner une scène entière. Il a fallu plusieurs grèves des scénaristes et des comédiens pour freiner les ambitions des moguls de Hollywood qui rêvaient à haute voix de se passer de plumes et d'acteurs pour leurs productions. C'est ce qui explique sans doute la relative indulgence des grands studios jusqu'ici. Peut-être ont-ils senti le vent tourner quand il y a quelques mois a circulé sur Internet un court métrage Star Wars d'une dizaine de minutes entièrement réalisé sur IA par un fan, évidemment sans l'autorisation de Disney. Une production d'une qualité médiocre, mais dont certains plans pourraient tromper un public non averti. Ce qui pose la question : combien d'années (ou de mois) avant que n'importe quel internaute un tant soit peu dégourdi ne puisse produire de chez lui sa version d'une œuvre sous licence ? Et les grands studios de cinéma ne sont pas les seuls concernés, la situation terrifie les plus petits artistes dont les œuvres ont été pillées sans vergogne et qui n'ont pas, eux, les moyens de se défendre. L'IA de Google fait chuter les visites sur les sites des médias américains On peut aussi parler de la presse et des médias qui de plus en plus proposent à leurs lecteurs des résumés de leurs articles rédigés par l'IA. Problème : aux États-Unis, Google propose désormais un résumé des différents articles disponibles sur un sujet directement sur sa page d'accueil. Résultat : plus besoin de cliquer et les différents sites d'informations ont vu leur trafic – et les revenus publicitaires qui allaient avec – s'effondrer. Alors que c'est toujours leur contenu et leur travail qui sert de base à l'IA de Google. Bref, le piratage reste du piratage.

It's Tuesday, June 3rd, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson Indonesian boy killed for his Christian faith An 8-year-old Indonesian boy in the Seberida district was killed for his faith in Jesus on May 19th, reports International Christian Concern.   Indonesia is an 87% Muslim country. The boy, publicly named as K.B., was beaten to death by five older Muslim boys.  Pastor Piet, of the GPDI Solagracia church where the family worshipped, remembers him as a child who was “diligent in Sunday school, often participating in Bible quizzes, and often winning.” His father said, “He was my first child. My second child is a girl. He was a good and strong child. He dreamed of becoming a soldier. I used to want to become a soldier, but I didn't. That's why I wanted him to become a soldier.” Psalm 116:15 says, “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints.” Polish voters elect conservative president After a national election over the weekend, Poland will join a growing group of Western nations moving to the right of center -- more nationalistic, more supportive of traditional values, and more opposed to the internationalism of the day. A former boxer and historian, Mr. Karol Nawrocki, won the presidential election by a close vote of 50.9% to 49.1%. Nawrocki had been endorsed by President Donald Trump. Nawrocki quoted 2 Chronicles 7:14, stating that God would “heal the land” if they would “turn away from wicked ways, reports the Associated Press.”  The conservative edge in Poland has stood firm against pro-abortion policies and pro-European Union trends over the last five years. That will appear to continue with the Nawrocki administration. Poland will join the United States, Argentina, Hungary, and Italy, as nations that have moved in a conservative direction over the last few election cycles. GOP Senate fiscal hawks balking at price tag of Trump's Bill President Donald Trump's Big Beautiful Federal Spending Bill is heading to the U.S. Senate. But several Republican senators are balking at the price tag, including Senators Rand Paul of Kentucky and Josh Hawley of Missouri, reports Liberty Counsel Action. GOP Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin is proposing that at least $838 billion be cut from federal spending to reduce government expenditures from 23.3% to 20.6% of the gross national income. This would reduce government to the relative size of the economy in 2019 before the COVID crisis.  In other words, Senator Johnson is simply requesting that government be reduced to pre-pandemic levels.   Presently, the Congressional Budget Office is estimating that President Trump's Big Beautifull Bill will add another $22 trillion to the $37 trillion of federal debt — putting the U.S. debt at 134% of the Gross Domestic Product by 2035. Japan and United States have weak bond auctions The leading Keynesian governments in the world are having a hard time getting people to fund their debt. Japan's bond auction yielded the weakest demand since the 2010 recession. The U.S. bond auction last week was extremely weak, resulting in 30-year bond interest to bump up to 5.15% — the highest rate since 2007. Ukrainian drone attack took out one-third Russian's long-range bombers Ukraine dispatched a drone attack deep into Russia, hitting some key military sites over the weekend. The bombings have reportedly taken out more than one-third of Russia's long range bombers, crippling Russia's nuclear capabilities. Homosexual pride marches have lost up to 50% of sponsorship The licentious elements of society are celebrating their pride month in June.  Slate.com reports a reduction in corporate sponsorships of the homosexual/transgender pride marches in the U.S.  Some have lost 40-50% of the corporate monies they have received in previous years. Plus, companies like Comcast, Anheuser-Busch, and Smirnoff have dropped Pride sponsorships altogether. The firm Booz Allen Hamilton pulled sponsorships, referring to the president's executive orders -- one of which prohibits the U.S. government from contracting with companies that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion. The World Pride event is taking place in Washington D.C. this year, the first time in the United States since the New York City event in 2019.  The larger sponsors of homosexual/transgender Pride events like World Pride include Hilton, Delta Airlines, Amazon, IKEA, Verizon, Corona, Fresca, and Starbucks. Southwest Airlines, United Airlines, and Kroger are also supporting homosexual events this year. 1 John 2:16 and 17 speaks of lust and pride. It says, “All that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.” Focus on the Family targeted for affirming God's design for sexuality Focus on the Family is being targeted by the Southern Poverty Law Center for its opposition to homosexual behavior and gender transition for youths. The leftist group was particularly outraged with Jim Daly's more recent interviews of Rosaria Butterfield, and an interview of Walt Heyer and Kathy Grace Duncan. These were Christians who have repented of sins of homosexual behavior and transgenderism.   The Southern Poverty Law Center has been notorious for conflating Christian groups with Neo-Nazi and racist groups in the United States, and promoting persecution of Christians. Other ministries on their list include Family Research Council, Liberty Council, Coral Ridge Ministries, Alliance Defending Freedom, and Generations. Abortion Kill Pill creator died at 98 A French scientist, responsible for the deaths of 50 million babies, himself died last week at 98 years of age. Étienne-Émile Baulieu was instrumental in the development of the abortion kill pill, RU-486, in 1980.  About half of abortions in developed nations have been conducted by the abortion pill since the 2010s.  Today, chemical abortion accounts for 63% of all abortions in America. The BBC reports that French President Emmanuel Macron, called Dr Baulieu "a beacon of courage" and "a progressive mind who enabled women to win their freedom." 6 Worldview donors gave $730 And finally, toward this week's $30,875 goal to fund The Worldview newcast by this Friday, June 6th, six listeners stepped up to the plate. Our thanks to Daniel in San Luis Potosí, Mexico who gave $5, Kimberly in  Sacramento, California who gave $25, and Deborah in  Cosmopolis, Washington who gave $50. We're also grateful to God for Keith and Marsha in Morgan, Colorado who gave $100, Genita in Bardstown, Kentucky who gave $250, and Frances in Beacon, New York who pledged $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300. Ready for our total? Drum roll please.  (Drum roll sound effect) $730 (People clapping sound effect)  That means by this Friday, we need to raise $30,145.  I received an intriguing text from a friend in Michigan. She suggested that I ask if someone would prayerfully consider underwriting half of our entire budget.  That would be $61,750.  Or perhaps you could cover the $30,145 that we need to raise this week. But, alas if those big dollar amounts are not remotely possible, every $25 and $50 donation gets us incrementally closer to being fully funded. Just go to TheWorldview.com and click on Give on the top right.   I would love to see 20 people make donations on this, our second day.   Consider making a monthly pledge by clicking on the recurring donation tab.

RTÉ Economics and Public Affairs Editor, David Murphy reports on the long-running controversy over the state's second mobile phone licence.

My guest this week is Evan Day. Evan is the VP of Digital Marketing at BriteCap Financial, where he's been mastering the art and science of making complex things simple for over 15 years. He's worked with giants like Comcast and global heavyweights in publishing, bringing data-driven strategy to the forefront at every stop. But that's not all. Evan is also pursuing a Ph.D. in psychology with a focus on neuroscience—because apparently having a master's in data science wasn't enough. Overachiever. He's diving deep into the fascinating intersection of brain science and marketing, figuring out what really makes people tick. When he's not being a marketing wizard, Evan is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu brown belt and a former college soccer player—who, I think, sometimes forgets that his knees have aged a bit faster than his ambition.
