More than four years after Better Being Company withdrew its IPO plans, one of the most historically significant dietary supplement brand portfolios finally got a (technically) new owner. Since that “Great Shutdown” period can be blurry for everybody, I'd guess most aren't aware Better Being Company filed Form S-1 with the SEC (in July 2021) for a proposed initial public offering…let alone that it postponed and eventually withdrew plans (due to market conditions) only a few months later. Obviously, hindsight granted us clarity to understand that despite the number of U.S. traditional IPOs in 2021 climbing to the highest levels since the late 1990s (and deal value hitting record levels), amid expectations for higher interest rates and a return of volatility…the market swiftly rotated away from risky, growth-oriented companies, which especially hurt small-cap IPOs. However, some might still argue it could've followed another dietary supplement company, Thorne Healthtech, that filed Form S-1 with the SEC something like a week after Better Being Company…and began trading a “downsized” IPO in September 2021. But even with continued strong sales growth, Thorne Healthtech struggled to maintain its IPO value until a 2023 acquisition by the private equity firm L Catterton offered stockholders a significant premium. Moreover, while most industry pundits would classify Better Being Company and Thorne Healthtech as direct competitors (due to offering similar categorical products), I see dramatically different strategic aspirations. Therefore, it's highly probable investors wouldn't have given Better Being Company a similar “spot landing” after eventually noticing it lacked the same prominence of Thorne Healthtech in this new “preventive health and wellness era” where consumers want a distinctively proactive, personalized, and integrative data-led approach. However, for the most part…private equity (and public markets) has adapted to lessons learned from this period, and positive momentum has been rebuilding throughout 2025. And that allows the recent Better Being Company announcement that it had been acquired by a syndicate of global investors led by Snapdragon Capital Partners (which has been a minority stake holder since July 2019). And assumably, Snapdragon Capital Partners would've built further conviction in the vertically integrated manufacturer, marketer, and distributor of branded dietary supplements and personal care products…because it had to buyout HGGC, the private equity firm that was responsible for taking Better Being Company (then known as Nutraceutical International) private in August 2017 for just shy of $450 million. But Snapdragon Capital stated in the recent press release that “Better Being Company has seen two years of explosive growth led by its flagship Solaray brand.” Additionally, within a trade publication article from earlier this year, President and Chief Commercial Officer (Kyle Garner), which joined in 2023, confirmed the strong recent performance of Better Being Company…stating 20% YoY growth and approaching $400 million in net sales (which would be about an additional $80 million in net sales compared to fiscal year 2020 financials). But then, beyond obviously looking for that successful future liquidity event...I'll explore where Snapdragon Capital Partners presumably envision Better Being Company going next?
After nearly four decades of negotiations, sanctions, summits, threats, and backdoor channels, the United States has failed to stop North Korea's nuclear program which now has the capability to strike American cities with weapons of mass destruction. In Fallout: The Inside Story of America's Failure to Disarm North Korea (Yale UP, 2025), Joel S. Wit explains why US efforts to contain North Korea have not worked and gives readers a front-row seat to the policy debates, diplomatic deals, and secret talks between Washington and Pyongyang. Wit, a former State Department official, takes readers to the front lines of nuclear negotiations and recounts how perilously close the United States and North Korea have come, on various occasions, to nuclear confrontation. Based on more than three hundred interviews with officials in Washington, Beijing, and Seoul, as well as with the author's contacts in Pyongyang, this book chronicles how six American presidents have approached the problem of North Korea.Wit points to Barack Obama and Donald Trump as the two presidents most responsible for the failure to halt North Korea's march to build a nuclear arsenal, since it was under their successive tenures that Pyongyang acquired the ability to threaten every city in North America. Wit also offers an unparalleled portrait of Kim Jong Un that refutes his caricature as impulsive and illogical. Like his father and his grandfather, Kim is a ruthless despot but also a canny and informed negotiator determined to secure his dictatorship's future by exploring diplomacy or, failing that, by building a nuclear arsenal. Dr. Andrew O. Pace is a historian of the US in the world who specializes in the moral fog of war. He is currently a DPAA Research Partner Fellow at the University of Southern Mississippi and a co-host of the Diplomatic History Channel on the New Books Network. He is also working on his first book which examines the high price that the Roosevelt and Truman administrations were willing to pay in order to achieve total victory in World War II.

This episode is a special replay of David George's conversation with Harry Stebbings on 20VC. David is a General Partner on a16z's growth team, and in this discussion he breaks down how he thinks about breakout growth investing: why great business models are now table stakes, where real edge comes from non-consensus views on TAM, and how to underwrite upside in a world of higher prices and increasing competition.They also dig into the mechanics behind the scenes: unit economics at growth, “pull vs push” products, winner-take-most market structures, and how David decides when to double or triple down on a company. Along the way, they touch on SPACs, the rise of crossover funds, single-trigger decision making, and how David manages fear, pressure, and performance over the long arc of an investing career.

The space race was once between the United States and the Soviet Union; now it's between two tech billionaires trying to seize the mantle of most powerful space lord. For Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos, the development of SpaceX and Blue Origin respectively is the culmination of a lifetime commitment to technology growth and science fiction. It's also increasingly a ferocious campaign, one that has turned them from experimental pioneers to aggressive businessmen hoping to seize the future of space's GDP for themselves.All of this is ably documented in Christian Davenport's new book, “Rocket Dreams: Musk, Bezos, and the Inside Story of the New, Trillion-Dollar Space Race.” A follow up from his massively popular book “The Space Barons,” the book chronicles the last seven years of the new space race with alacrity and intimate details.Christian and Riskgaming host Danny Crichton talk about how he transitioned from covering Afghanistan and America's home front in the War on Terror to covering the crazy billionaires at the heart of the space race. Then they talk about Musk's fight over the United Launch Alliance, why Blue Origin has been taking on more risks in recent years, NASA and the government's growing dependency on private companies for manned spaceflight, what the next decade of the space economy will look like, and finally, how China is entering the picture in a frenetic way.
The Author Events Series presents Karine Jean-Pierre | Independent : A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines In Conversation with Tamala Edwards Montgomery Auditorium is now sold out, but tickets are still available for a live simulcast screening in a separate room at the Parkway Central Library. Standby seating will be available in the overflow room for guests who wish to wait for an opportunity to be seated in the main auditorium, if space permits. These standby seats will be available on a first come, first served basis. Auditorium seats are not guaranteed. In a country obsessed with blind loyalty to a two-party democratic system, Karine Jean-Pierre, former White House press secretary to the Biden-Harris administration, shares why Americans must step beyond party lines to embrace life as Independents. Jean-Pierre didn't come to her decision to be an Independent lightly. She has served two American presidents, Obama and Biden. In 2020, she joined Biden's campaign as a senior adviser, becoming Harris's chief of staff and then, two years later, White House press secretary. She takes us through the three weeks that led to Biden's abandoning his bid for a second term and the betrayal by the Democratic Party that led to his decision. In an urgent, timely analysis, Independent urges all Americans to vote their values and maintain individuality within party lines. She presents clear arguments and provocative evidence as an insider about the importance of dismantling the torrent of disinformation and misinformation that has been rampant in recent elections and provides passionate insight for moving forward. In a hard-hitting yet hopeful critique, Jean-Pierre defines what it means to be part of the growing percentage of our fractured electorate that is Independent, why it can be worthwhile to carve a political space more loyal to personal beliefs than a party affiliation, and what questions you need to ask yourself to determine where you fit politically. As a history maker, veteran public servant, political analyst and independent thinker, she urges Americans to think outside of the blue-and-red box as we consider what's next to save our democracy. Karine Jean-Pierre was the White House Press Secretary and Special Advisor to former President Joe Biden. She has worked in senior communications and political offices in both the Biden and Obama Administrations. Prior to her time in the White House, Jean-Pierre was the Chief Public Affairs Officer for MoveOn.org. She is a graduate of Columbia University. Tamala Edwards joined 6abc in January of 2005.

Detroit has a RoboCop statue. I watched it go in myself on Wednesday. It's a real thing. An amazingly detailed, 10-foot tall, 2.5 ton bronze behemoth will be greeting future generations coming to Eastern Market. For more of the story, I sat down with three of the key people who refused to let this long-running project die: Filmmaker and original organizer Brandon Walley Producer and Free Age co-owner Jim Toscano Omni Consumer Products' "defictionalizer-in-chief" Pete Hottelet Together, we unpack how a jokey tweet comparing Detroit to Philadelphia's Rocky statue turned into a nearly decade and a half odyssey that pulled in Hollywood effects legends, local foundry artisans, a major studio, and countless twists and turns. Brandon explains how the idea leapt from a viral Facebook page into a real public art commission through the old Imagination Station, and why the team was adamant that the statue be made in Detroit. He walks through the early missteps, the learning curve on how you actually build a 10-foot bronze figure, and the multi-year collaboration with Venus Bronze Works, the shop behind many of Detroit's landmark sculptures. Pete gets into the legal and technical hurdles: getting MGM on board, putting up his own money to show good faith, and insisting on screen-accurate detail by restoring Peter Weller's original armor from a warehouse in Houston with artist Mark Dubois and the legendary Tippett Studio. One of the most interesting points for me, from a community perspective, is that he talks about "defictionalizing" Robocop's Directive One — serve the public trust — by turning the statue's plaque itself into a QR code that can connect visitors to community causes, donating straight from their phones. Jim shares how Free Age became Robocop's eventual "roommate" after other locations, including the Science Center, fell through during the pandemic. He and Walley talk about the symbolism of placing Robocop on the edge of Eastern Market as a welcoming figure, arm extended, and how they're bracing — in a good way — for fans who donated years ago, people honoring loved ones, and visitors from around the world to show up on their Russell Street patio. Throughout, the group reflects on the grind of seeing a wild idea through nearly 15 years, the friendships and collaboration that kept it alive, and what it means for Detroit to finally have a pop-culture monument that is both deeply nerdy and deeply rooted in the city's perseverance and generosity. You're not going to want to miss this conversation, or your chance to see a bit of movie history right here in the Motor City.

December 8th marks the 45th anniversary of John Lennon's death in 1980. In this special rebroadcast of Modern Law Library, we're looking back at how his immigration helped expose corruption within the Nixon administration and rewrote the immigration process. His attorney, Leon Wildes, sat down with Lee Rawles and his son Michael Wildes to discuss what the case and the legal legacy Lennon left behind. ----- When immigration attorney Leon Wildes got a call from an old law school classmate in January 1972 about representing a musician and his wife who were facing deportation, their names didn't ring a bell. Even after meeting with them privately at their New York City apartment, Wildes wasn't entirely clear about who his potential clients were. He told his wife that he'd met with a Jack Lemon and Yoko Moto. “Wait a minute, Leon,” his wife Ruth said to him. “Do you mean John Lennon and Yoko Ono?” What Wildes didn't know when accepting the Lennons' case was that he and his clients were facing a five-year legal battle which would eventually expose corruption at the highest levels of the Nixon administration and change the U.S. immigration process forever. His account of that legal battle is told in “John Lennon vs. the USA: The Inside Story of the Most Bitterly Contested and Influential Deportation Case in United States History.” Leon Wildes and his son Michael (now a managing partner at the firm his father founded, Wildes & Weinberg) joined the ABA Journal's Lee Rawles to discuss the legacy of the case and the effect it's had on the entire family.

December 8th marks the 45th anniversary of John Lennon's death in 1980. In this special rebroadcast of Modern Law Library, we're looking back at how his immigration helped expose corruption within the Nixon administration and rewrote the immigration process. His attorney, Leon Wildes, sat down with Lee Rawles and his son Michael Wildes to discuss what the case and the legal legacy Lennon left behind. ----- When immigration attorney Leon Wildes got a call from an old law school classmate in January 1972 about representing a musician and his wife who were facing deportation, their names didn't ring a bell. Even after meeting with them privately at their New York City apartment, Wildes wasn't entirely clear about who his potential clients were. He told his wife that he'd met with a Jack Lemon and Yoko Moto. “Wait a minute, Leon,” his wife Ruth said to him. “Do you mean John Lennon and Yoko Ono?” What Wildes didn't know when accepting the Lennons' case was that he and his clients were facing a five-year legal battle which would eventually expose corruption at the highest levels of the Nixon administration and change the U.S. immigration process forever. His account of that legal battle is told in “John Lennon vs. the USA: The Inside Story of the Most Bitterly Contested and Influential Deportation Case in United States History.” Leon Wildes and his son Michael (now a managing partner at the firm his father founded, Wildes & Weinberg) joined the ABA Journal's Lee Rawles to discuss the legacy of the case and the effect it's had on the entire family.

Andrew Ross Sorkin (1929: The Inside Story of the Greatest Crash in Wall Street History) is a financial columnist, TV anchor, and author. Andrew joins the Armchair Expert to discuss a kid telling him when he was young that god drew him wrong, actually working with Aaron Sorkin (no relation) on his show The Newsroom, and landing an unofficial internship at The New York Times as a senior in high school. Andrew and Dax talk about why his motto as a finance journalist was ‘chasing interesting,' understanding not trusting the stock trading system because it doesn't deserve to be trusted, and his tips for getting ChatGPT to tell the truth with verifiable facts. Andrew explains writing an exposé on going into debt to buy stocks, shocking and unexpected stories of fallout from the stock market crash of 1929, and parallels he sees in current financial trends accompanied by an argument for transparency.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

1991 ushered in a new epoch of hope as Russia marched toward democracy and prosperity on the ruins of the Soviet Union. In 2025 those hopes for a thriving, democratic Russia have not panned out. Irina Borogan and Andrei Soldatov lived it as journalists in Russia from the start of Putin's reign. Specialists in documenting Russia's secret services, they've reported many, many important stories over the past decades. Our Dear Friends in Moscow: The Inside Story of a Broken Generation (PublicAffairs, 2025) tells an intimate story of a group of friends in journalism whose view diverged against the backdrop of Putin's revanchist, authoritarian rule. Soldatov and Borogan narrate the personal, perplexing, and painful story of the friends and colleagues who assimilated Kremlin-aligned views as the authors themselves moved from opposition journalists to exiles under threat from the Putin's regime. This conversation scratches the surface of the book's riveting and important attempt to make sense of polarization and allegiances with weighty consequences. Andrei Soldatov is a Russian investigative journalist in exile, co-founder and editor of Agentura ru, a watchdog of the Russian secret services' activities. He has been covering security services and terrorism issues since 1999. Irina Borogan is a Russian investigative journalist in exile. Borogan reported on terrorist attacks in Russia, including hostage takings in Moscow and Beslan. In 1999 Borogan covered the NATO bombing in Yugoslavia, in 2006 she covered the Lebanon War and tensions in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. She chronicled the Kremlin's campaign to gain control of civil society and strengthen the government's police services under the pretext of fighting extremism. Irina Borogan and Andrei Soldatov are currently fellows at King's College London and the Center for Europan Policy Analysis (CEPA). They are co-authors of four books: The New Nobility: The Restoration of Russia's Security State and the Enduring Legacy of the KGB (2010); The Red Web: The Struggle Between Russia's Digital Dictators and the New Online Revolutionaries (2015); The Compatriots: The Brutal and Chaotic History of Russia's Exiles, Émigrés, and Agents Abroad (2019);and Our Dear Friends in Moscow: The Inside Story of a Broken Generation (2025).

It is also available to buy in participating retailers in the Liverpool area. Chris Kirkland lived the dream, but the latter stages of his football career and initial years of retirement were a living nightmare. A boyhood Liverpool supporter, the one-time England international was just 20 years old when he joined his beloved Reds and became the most expensive goalkeeper in British history in August 2001. While untimely injuries ultimately stopped him from becoming first-choice at Liverpool, he played his part in the Reds winning the Champions League in 2005 and can look back on his Anfield career with pride. A move to Wigan Athletic followed in 2006 and he was the Latics' number one for four seasons in the Premier League as he enjoyed the best years of his career. But the wheels started to come off for Kirkland after joining Sheffield Wednesday in the summer of 2012. Already battling anxiety throughout his career, it was during his time with the Owls that he first developed an addiction to painkillers that left him fearing for his life. Ahead of the release of Kirkland's autobiography, ‘'Keeping It Quiet' - The Chris Kirkland Story', on November 17th, the former Liverpool shot-stopper joined Theo Squires for a special edition of the Blood Red podcast as he bravely opened up about his struggles with mental health and addiction. The 44-year-old also reveals all about the highs and lows of his Liverpool career, including the inside story of his dream move to Anfield, his injury struggles and why a troublesome relationship with Rafa Benitez proved to be the beginning of the end for Kirkland at his boyhood club. Chris Kirkland's autobiography, ‘'Keeping It Quiet' - The Chris Kirkland Story', is available from November 17. Pre-orders are available at www.curtis-sport.com.

Cheney and Grusch: UFO Secrecy Allegations26 sourcesThe collected texts explore the connection between former Vice President Dick Cheney and Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs), detailing both verified incidents and unconfirmed allegations. The sources confirm that Cheney was publicly questioned about UFOs during a 2001 radio interview, to which he provided an evasive response by citing classification concerns. Furthermore, the documents address widespread speculation regarding Cheney's role, noting his previous high-level positions as Secretary of Defense and Vice President, which provides a basis for the public interest. A key focus is the difficulty in verifying claims that whistleblower David Grusch privately identified Cheney as being "at the top of the UFO/UAP secrecy cabal," as Grusch has never made this specific allegation publicly in his official testimony or interviews. The texts conclude that the claim about Cheney stems from secondhand accounts of alleged private remarks, such as those made by journalist Walter Kirn. #DickCheney #UFOs #WhiteHouse #uap #disclosure #coverup

Newt talks with award-winning Washington Post reporter Christian Davenport, about his new book, “Rocket Dreams: Musk, Bezos, and the Inside Story of the New, Trillion-Dollar Space Race.” They discuss the new space race, focusing on the competition between countries and private companies to return humans to the moon and explore beyond. Davenport highlights the advancements in space technology, particularly SpaceX's Starship, which represents a significant breakthrough with its fully reusable design and potential to revolutionize space travel. Their conversation also touches on the competitive landscape, with China making significant strides in space exploration and the United States' efforts to maintain its leadership. The potential for the moon to serve as a refueling station for deeper space exploration is also discussed, along with the need for a less bureaucratic and more innovative approach to NASA's operations to ensure the U.S. remains competitive in the new space race.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
