"I Had the Opportunity”: What Else Charlie Kirk's Alleged Assassin Wrote Before Pulling the Trigger! What if the most damning piece of evidence in a political assassination wasn't a gun… but a note? In this segment of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski sits down with retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer to unravel the chilling handwritten message allegedly left behind by Tyler Robinson — the 22-year-old accused of assassinating Charlie Kirk. According to reports, the note was hidden under a keyboard, discovered by Robinson's romantic partner, and then destroyed… with only a photo left as evidence. But is that enough? Jennifer Coffindaffer takes us deep into how the FBI evaluates the credibility of a confession like this — especially when the original note no longer exists. We discuss how chain of custody, photographic integrity, and third-party involvement (in this case, the suspect's “lover”) could complicate its role in court. And what happens when a jury has to decide whether a text message or a blurry phone pic proves intent to kill? But this isn't just about the note. It's about what it reveals: a short fuse, a calculated act, and a disturbing lack of remorse. The segment lays the foundation for everything that follows — motive, mental state, and whether this was a political act… or something far more personal. If you think this story is just about ideology, think again. This is where the cracks start to show.

Unmask the secrets of a $50M costume empire. From million-dollar days to seasonal surges, discover what Halloween sellers can teach every Amazon entrepreneur. Fraser Smeaton, the mastermind behind a $50 million costume empire, joins us to unveil the fascinating world of seasonal business success. With Halloween just around the corner, Fraser spills the beans on capturing 15% of annual revenue in just four days leading up to the spooky celebration. We explore the cultural evolution of Halloween, from its roots with Scottish and Irish immigrants to its booming presence across the U.S., Canada, the UK, and Europe. Fraser also shares how confectionery companies have sweetened Halloween's appeal in the UK over the past 15 years, and offers a nostalgic look at traditional celebrations like guising in Scotland.   The journey from a bedroom startup to a global costume phenomenon is nothing short of inspiring. Fraser recounts how writing the website URL on Morphsuits turned customers into living billboards, and how harnessing early Facebook advertising created waves in the e-commerce ocean. As the business scaled rapidly, they navigated the storm of market saturation and competition, pivoting towards direct-to-consumer sales on Amazon. Fraser emphasizes the significance of e-commerce tools like Helium 10 and the wisdom gained from networking events, which transformed their operation from $15 million to a $50 million powerhouse.    Talking about the operational side, we uncover the complexities of managing a seasonal costume business. From intricate retail partnerships with giants like Spirit Halloween and Target to the art of balancing high-end and budget-friendly offerings, Fraser reveals the strategic intricacies of thousands of SKUs. He sheds light on the international demand for costumes, highlighting the year-round efforts involved in product design and inventory management. As tariffs fluctuate and international expansion beckons, Fraser's insights provide a roadmap for navigating economic challenges while maintaining a festive spirit in the vibrant world of costume sales.

In this episode of the Power Producers Podcast, host David Carothers and co-host Kyle Houck are joined by Joshua Lauer of Lauer Creatives for a deep dive into the world of marketing intelligence. Joshua shares his unique journey from aspiring songwriter to a data-driven marketing consultant. The conversation focuses on the most common and costly mistake B2B companies make: losing marketing attribution as leads move from their website to their CRM. Joshua breaks down the technical solutions for creating a seamless data flow, discusses the complexities of tracking "dark social," and offers his perspective on the practical applications and limitations of AI in marketing analytics. Key Highlights: Fixing the Leaky Funnel: Website to CRM Attribution Joshua Lauer identifies the critical disconnect between marketing efforts and sales outcomes as the most common issue he encounters. He explains how crucial data—like which campaign a lead came from—is often lost as it moves through a CRM, leaving businesses blind to which marketing channels are actually driving revenue and resulting in inefficient ad spend. The Technical Fix: Hidden Inputs and Data Persistence The conversation dives into the solution for lost attribution. Joshua details his method of using hidden form fields on websites to capture UTM parameters and other tracking data. He stresses the importance of ensuring that this data persists as a lead is converted from a Lead to a Contact and then to an Opportunity within the CRM, providing true end-to-end visibility. Navigating Dark Social and Attribution Models David and Joshua discuss the challenge of tracking word-of-mouth referrals and "dark social," which often manifest as an increase in "direct traffic." They also touch on the pitfalls of platform-specific attribution models, like Facebook's aggressive view-through credit, highlighting the need for a critical and nuanced approach to analyzing marketing data. The Practical Role of AI in Marketing Intelligence While AI is transforming many areas, Joshua explains its current role in his field. He sees AI as a powerful tool for content optimization and creating conversational interfaces for data analysis, but clarifies that it cannot yet replace the human expertise required for the complex, business-specific logic of a proper tracking setup.

Olga also walks through the risks she's watching, why facts change faster than narratives, and practical ways to connect top-down insights with bottom-up research.Topics coveredThe Perpetual Growth Machine: why needs spark innovation and growth, and how investors can spot it earlyWhy monopolies look great to investors but hurt long-term growth and innovationAI as a general purpose technology and the scale of potential productivity savingsHousing affordability, incomes, and policy bottlenecks through the PGM lensHow firms are actually adopting AI and how faster data changes research cadenceEurope's defense build-out and the rise of national champions and small-cap innovatorsInterpreting market concentration and what it signals about competitionInflation oscillation, policy mix, and why the Fed's tools have limitsTariffs as a regressive tax and how costs pass through to consumers over timeUS exceptionalism narrowing and why ex-US markets may lead in the coming cycleThe Draghi report and tearing down barriers inside the EU single marketComparing late-1990s tech to today's AI build-out and who the next leaders may beGrowth vs. value: focusing on sustained profit inflections, not cheapness aloneUsing stakeholder analysis to link macro themes to bottom-up stock workBiggest opportunities: Japan, Korea, Europe, select emerging markets, and parts of the Middle EastBiggest risk: a breakdown in the global order amid US-China tensionsClosing lessons: stay curious, stay nimble, question narratives, track the factsTimestamps00:00 Introduction and Olga's role at William Blair02:49 The Perpetual Growth Machine explained06:24 Policy bottlenecks, incentives, and growth09:32 AI as a general purpose technology and productivity math11:53 Practical AI adoption inside investment firms15:06 Where PGM points to opportunity right now16:26 Europe's defense spending and emerging winners19:02 Macro setup and consumer health20:42 Inflation today and what's changed under the hood22:46 The Fed's dilemma and limits of monetary policy25:00 Tariffs 101: who pays and how it shows up28:55 Early evidence in goods prices29:41 US exceptionalism vs. the rest of the world31:00 The Draghi report and a real EU single market33:11 Can Europe and others catch up in tech?36:15 EU financial services barriers and capital deployment37:07 Portfolio implications: why look ex-US39:10 Late-1990s tech vs. today's AI cycle41:20 Concentration risk and competition policy42:26 Value vs. growth through the PGM lens44:48 Base rates, sustaining growth, and churn at the top49:33 Marrying macro themes with bottom-up research51:08 Firsthand observation vs. headline narratives52:20 Biggest opportunities across regions53:00 Middle East changes and new listings54:48 Biggest risk: global order and US-China tensions55:36 Parting advice for investors

My guest today is Jeff Horing. Jeff cofounded Insight Partners and has been the Managing Director since 1995. This is one of Jeff's first public conversations about building one of the world's most successful technology investment firms with over $100 billion in AUM. Jeff reveals the mechanics behind Insight's legendary sourcing machine—60-80 people systematically calling companies worldwide. He explains their contrarian "one fund" strategy that deploys $12 billion across everything from $10M growth deals to billion-dollar buyouts, and why he thinks this creates unmatched competitive advantages. We discuss remarkable talent diaspora, AI representing a "TAM accelerator," and Insight's five-ingredient framework for perfect investments.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, digs into the mindset of “just making it to retirement (Amazon Affiliate).” For many officers, the countdown becomes a mantra—yet the years between can feel like being held hostage. From financial obligations to fractured relationships, we examine the reality behind retirement obsession and how to reclaim your career and identity before the clock runs out.   Check out Scott Medlin's The 10 Code Mindset.  Pros of the Retirement Countdown Mindset: Clear Goalpost – Provides a sense of direction and something to work toward. Financial Security – Builds hope for stability in the future. Motivation to Stay the Course – Helps push through rough patches. Sense of Pride in Longevity – A badge of honor to reach full retirement. Opportunity to Plan Ahead – Encourages focus on life after the job. Cons of the Retirement Countdown Mindset: Living for the Future Only – Creates disengagement from the present. Resentment Builds – Toward the job, leadership, or system. Strained Relationships – Ex-wives or financial obligations tied to pensions before retirement even starts. Emotional Hostage State – Every shift feels like survival until the clock runs out. Risk of Identity Crisis – When retirement arrives, purpose and structure vanish. Why officers measure time in “years to retirement.” The emotional toll of feeling trapped by the pension. The financial reality—alimony, divorce, and obligations before retirement even begins. Healthy ways to find meaning and fulfillment in the now, not just the future. Preparing emotionally and financially for retirement without letting it dominate your present life.

Show Notes: David A. Fields talks about how AI is affecting consulting firms. David clarifies that his company's active client base is 30-50 firms, and they are being asked more frequently to help firms with an AI strategy. In terms of size, 20% of their business is solo consultants, while the rest are mostly businesses that range from $2 million to $100 million.  Consulting Firms and AI Adoption David explains that the average revenue per FTE in consulting has remained around $250,000 for the past decade.He notes that firms are looking to create the same revenue with fewer people, which is the big promise of AI. He mentions the wide range of AI adoption rates among firms, from those just starting with chatbots to those seeing significant productivity gains. He also highlights the impact of AI on hiring junior people, with firms debating whether to hire junior analysts or use AI for faster, cheaper work. How High-Adopter Firms Use AI The conversation turns to examples of high-adopter firms and the tools they use. David describes a Canadian client that has seen 60% productivity gains by replacing functions with AI, including analysis, presentations, and proposals. The client has taken a hard line on not hiring anyone if AI can replace the function, leading to significant productivity gains and faster client results. David explains that the client uses AI to create summaries of context discussions, and templates for presentations and proposals, which are then populated with data. Additionally, AI speeds turnaround time, and has reduced the need to hire more people to do analysis or when the number of clients increases. Challenges and Opportunities in AI Adoption  David discusses the challenges of creating effective AI templates and the importance of good direction for AI tools. He mentions that firms are often building AI templates in-house with some direction from experts. He talks about the variety of AI tools available, including general-purpose tools like ChatGPT and specialized tools for specific tasks. David emphasizes the importance of staying flexible and not fully committing to any one tool by subscribing to an annual membership, as the landscape is constantly changing. Variation in AI Adoption by Functional Areas The discussion moves on to variations in AI adoption by functional areas like strategy, operations, marketing, etc. David explains that adoption rates are more driven by the founder's mindset and operational orientation rather than the specific function. He notes that some industries feel less pressure to adopt AI, while others recognize that AI delivers the analytical horsepower that is needed to stay relevant. There are varying levels of AI adoption across different firms. Predictions for AI in 2026 David predicts that the next few months will be spiky, with specialists who can provide practical applications of AI faring better. He mentions that generalist recommendation givers may struggle more. It is recognized that clients often prefer consultants with specific industry experience, which can be a challenge for AI tools. He also mentions the  limitations of AI research. When it comes to advice for junior consultants looking to enter the field, David suggests that domain expertise and knowledge that AI tools don't have are crucial for getting into consulting firms. He emphasizes the importance of being a top user of AI tools and for junior consultants to differentiate themselves by mastering AI tools and demonstrating their value to firms.
