As entrepreneurs, we're constantly seeking ways to scale our businesses without breaking the bank or compromising on quality. The challenge of finding top talent while managing costs is a familiar struggle for many of us. Hiring shouldn't feel like an impossible triangle—burning cash for top talent, settling for low-cost underperformance, or missing your growth moment altogether.

Intelligence.Luis breaks down his proven framework for building high-performance teams with Latin American talent—without sacrificing quality, speed, or company culture. We unpack the seven deadly sins of remote hiring, how to scale without the burnout, and why hiring missionaries (not mercenaries) will transform your business. From onboarding to performance metrics to pay transparency, Luis shows us how to rethink outsourcing—starting with a mindset shift.If you're a solopreneur or startup leader struggling to scale smart, this conversation might be your game changer.Key Takeaways:Why traditional outsourcing fails growing companiesThe 6 pillars of R.E.M.O.T.E.

Featuring: AmmosArt, Ashgar, Belghast, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen   The Nintendo Switch 2 has been out for long enough that folks have really gotten some time to play Mario Kart World, and we discuss some of its features.  We also talk a bit about the Donkey Kong Direct and the upcoming game releasing in July. It is the second week of Path of Exile 3.26, and Bel talks about his progress so far and some of the finer details of Mercenaries.  We talk briefly about the news that Marathon has been delayed to an indefinite date in the future, but that Sony is still talking about it like it is a thing.  Ash shares some thoughts about Siralim Ultimate and the upcoming 2.0 patch.  We then devolve into some nonsense about Dune Awakening as we discuss recent happenings on our private server.   Topics Discussed: Mario Kart World Donkey Kong Direct Path of Exile - Mercenaries of Trarthus Week Two Marathon Delayed Indefinitely Siralim Ultimate and 2.0 Patch Dune Awakening Nonsense

Xbox has announced a multi-year partnership with AMD to power their next-gen consoles. We speculate and discuss whether Microsoft will make their own Xbox handheld and if it will run Xbox games come next-gen's debut.CDPR is focusing on developing The Witcher 4 on console hardware in order to help with scaling. After their last disastrous release of Cyberpunk 2077 this may come as a comfort to console gamers running the PS5 and above. An impressive demo was shown off of The Witcher 4 running on the PS5 at 60fps. We speculate on whether the game will release before the PS6 comes out and whether the console-first approach is a wise idea.This week's Gaming Fun Fact focused on Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction and how it started out life not as Mercenaries, but instead as a sequel to 1992's Desert Strike. This also marks one year of our Gaming Fun Facts segment on the show!Later in the episode in the Query Corner Question we ask which game mechanics you'd like applied to a different game/genre. For example, would you like Monolith's nemesis system applied to an entirely different genre or game franchise?

For more than 400 years, Irish warfare was dominated by the Galloglass, elite Norse-Gael mercenary warriors who reshaped battles with their two-handed sparth axes and claymores. Why did Gaelic chieftains and Norman lords alike rely on these foreign fighters? And what drove the Galloglass to fight with such ferocity that English observers would later write, "When they strike they inflict a dreadful wound"?To find out more, Matt Lewis is joined by Fergus Cannan-Braniff, a descendant of Rob Roy MacGregor and Robert the Bruce, and author of Galloglass 1250-1600: Gaelic Mercenary Warrior.MORECastles and the Conquest of Irelandhttps://open.spotify.com/episode/4mQSY11BBAru3Q3tDQgXWAMedieval Ireland: Death & Politicshttps://open.spotify.com/episode/3sGKfux9jioLnvOUcydbovGone Medieval is presented by Matt Lewis and edited by Amy Haddow.

Our guest today is Daniel Corbett. Daniel has served as an elite Navy SEAL operator, as part of SEAL Teams 5, 6, and 17. He's now an entrepreneur and the author of American Mercenary. 1) People really need to read your book to get the whole story, but in a nutshell, how did a nice mercenary like you end up in a prison in Serbia? 2) Your story has been picked up by a production company. What can you tell us about that? 3) Is there a significance to your choosing the word Mercenary as opposed to “Contractor,” as many others in your line of work have used? 4) Throughout the book, your connection and dedication to your parents, especially your mom, stand out. The dangerous and secretive work you do must be hard on the family waiting at home. How does your family handle the unknown aspects of your life? 5) Your bio mentions that you have become an entrepreneur. Tell us what business ventures, besides finding “Unique Solutions To Unique Problems,” you are engaged in? 6) It might surprise people to hear that American Mercenary is an endearing story. And for a guy whose nickname is “Dirty” you have a humble and humorous way of letting us know you. From the story about Kinder Eggs to being transparent about Lululemon being your favorite brand of workout clothes. The reader feels like they are walking beside you throughout your journey. What is your favorite story about deciding what to put in or leave out of your book? Originally Aired 5.28.25

Believe it or not, but this forgotten game was one of the games that inspired Attack the Backlog. I still remember thinking it looked so cool on PlayStation 4, but never getting around to it because I was all-in on Xbox One to start that generation. By the time I got a PlayStation 4, it felt like the moment had passed and I might as well wait for a hopeful Xbox One port. Fast-forward four years and it would finally make its way to Xbox, Switch, and Vita and...I still didn't play it. Now, some seven years later, I've finally scratched Mercenary Kings off my backlog and, sadly, it couldn't help but disappoint with repetitive and tedious missions, weird customization choices, and occasionally frustrating difficulty spikes.

Candace Rondeaux joins Chris to unpack the dark mythology and hard realities behind the Wagner Group, drawing from her investigative book Putin's Sledgehammer. They explore Wagner's roots in post-Soviet chaos, its fusion of state power and criminal underworlds, and its critical role in Russia's foreign policy ambitions from Syria to Africa to Ukraine. Candace explains how Wagner became a key tool for circumventing sanctions, selling arms, spreading disinformation, and exporting Russia's influence under the guise of deniability. They discuss the rise and fall of Yevgeny Prigozhin, Wagner's shadowy presence in Zelensky's early presidency, and how the group evolved into today's “Africa Corps.” Plus: assassination attempts, troll farms, and how a sledgehammer murder became a viral propaganda symbol.

William and Casey are back for more stiff riffs! It's The William Montgomery Show with Casey Rocket!

Listen, Mercenary Force isn't a bad game at all. It's actually quite interesting, if a bit too hard. A side scrolling shooter where you control four feudal Japanese warriors? It's a good premise!

After security work in Russia, he joined the Wagner Group in 2015, rose to lead a reconnaissance company, and was badly wounded near Palmyra in 2016. He later advised the ISIS Hunters Battalion and fought at Khasham, but quit Wagner in 2019, briefly ran a Redut detachment in Syria, and left disillusioned. Gabidullin's 2022 memoir denounced Wagner and Russia's invasion of Ukraine; he now lives in France. Journalist and researcher John Lechner reports from conflict zones and specializes in Russian PMCs. His book Death Is Our Business (Bloomsbury, 2025) charts the rise of Wagner, following earlier work such as Beginner's Chechen and upcoming Circassian and Sango language texts. A former policy analyst for the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom and an emerging-markets banker at Deutsche Bank and Lazard, Lechner holds degrees from Harvard (Slavic Languages) and Georgetown (MSFS). Fluent in five languages and conversant in several others, he is a recognized expert on Russian foreign policy and has written for The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Atlantic, and Foreign Policy.
