Podcasts about Palantir

NSA whistleblower Bill Binney and former CERN scientist and intelligence analyst Dr. Katherine Horton join the program to expose the hidden architecture of global surveillance and corruption. We dive deep into the Epstein network, Palantir's reach, and the dark underbelly of modern intelligence operations. Binney reveals how his groundbreaking surveillance program, ThinThread, was capable of tracking global communications with precision—without violating constitutional rights. He explains how this powerful tool could be used today to identify and expose every pedophile and corrupt actor, no matter how high up the chain they are. But there's a catch: the very people who could bring justice are often the ones protecting the criminals.This is a must-listen conversation about truth, technology, and the battle for justice—and how a committed group of good people still has the power to dismantle the system from within.Follow Dr. Katherine Horton at https://stop007.org and learn more about Bill Binney and his time at the NSA in the documentary A Good American

Since January, Americans have had serious concerns about Elon Musk's DOGE (the “Department of Government Efficiency”) and the privacy of our personal data. The government used to have careful guardrails in place to protect our information. Only certain people, after careful background checks, were given access. But DOGE was given unprecedented access to all of our data, across departments and agencies. And because Trump fast-tracked DOGE with an executive order, employees didn't have to go through the same background checks and screenings. Many were teenagers, including the now infamous 19-year-old hacker whose online name is (sigh) “Big Balls.”Okay, but Elon is gone now. So does that mean DOGE is over? Unfortunately, no. DOGE was never an official government agency (it just hijacked the existing US Digital Service), and Elon Musk was never officially in charge of it, so even without Elon, the work continues. A former DOGE employee is now the chief of staff at the Department of Energy, for example, and two former DOGE members are now senior officials at the Environmental Protection Agency. “Big Balls” himself is now working at the Social Security Administration.Meanwhile, Peter Thiel—another billionaire and the founder of the tech company Palantir—has been working to build a massive, government-run database of Americans. The goal is a one-stop shop with all of our information, from tax returns to medical records, all in the same place. You know, exactly the thing the government has always known not to do.Privacy used to be nonpartisan. Back in the 1970s, Republican Senator Charles Percy said, “I hope that we never see the day when a bureaucrat in Washington can use his organization's computer facilities to assemble a complete dossier of all known information about an individual.” Even in the past few years, data privacy has been an issue that transcends political parties.So reach out to your representatives, no matter where you live, to let them know that you don't want billionaires to have your data. And if all of this feels too overwhelming, try getting involved in your local community. We might not be able to do much about what's happening with our information, but we can make things better for our neighbors.For a transcript of this episode, please email comms@redwine.blue.

In this podcast, we are joined by Lauren Caron of “Certainty4UncertainTimes,” as we discuss multiple topics, including the recent official statement from the FBI and DOJ regarding the Epstein files and list, Palantir, and how it is playing into the framework of the future Beast System. 



The New York Times finally admitted Israel is carrying out a genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza, in an article by an Israeli scholar who studies the Holocaust. A United Nations report detailed how US corporations are profiting from these crimes, although the Trump administration responded by imposing sanctions on the UN expert who exposed it, Francesca Albanese. Ben Norton explains.

Flooding in cities across the United States, even extending all the way to Tokyo, have like clockwork imitated the talking points of climate change or DEWs and geoengineering. Without entering that argument we can simply take a look at the data: what are the records for single day rainfall in a state, city, etc? what is the record for monthly rainfall in those same places? what are the averages of rainfall in these places over a year? is the amount of rain, intensity of the rain, or number of deaths being used to create the 'worst of' story? what are the worst floods based on and when are the records set? what does this have to do with timing of the event, population density and what context does it have to better advancements in civilization? The flooding of conspiracy land is the only real hazard, which like climate change, encourages people to be part of a group identity by repeating talking points to sound knowledgable. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Josh Sigurdson reports on the rollout of CBDCs (Central Bank Digital Currencies) in nearly every country worldwide simultaneously alongside Digital IDs. Order out of chaos. There is chaos being perpetuated by design worldwide right now and conveniently, nearly every government is rolling out a cashless society as the United States pushes forward AI legislation, passes the GENIUS Act, XMoney launches in partnership with Visa as part of the social media X's social credit system, the European Union launches a Digital ID wallet at the same time as they launch a CBDC by October at the latest, the UK launches their Digital ID wallet and pushes for the Pound to "go woke" and the Australian Digital ID wallet is launched as a litmus for other countries. Russia, China and other BRICS+ countries are full steam ahead with mandated Digital IDs and major corporations like Palantir are creating vast databases on everyone which will likely be ties to their social media presence as well as their credit card spending. As the EU rolls out their Digital ID and CBDC faster than almost anyone else, they're also banning private messaging and privacy coins, settling for KYC based cryptocurrency stablecoins. This is similar to the US push for banks to regulate crypto, ironically the exact thing crypto was designed to fight. Meanwhile, SpaceX will invest $2 billion in Elon Musk's xAI which Musk just sold X to for $33 billion. This comes as SpaceX launches a $200 million smartphone in space for Israel. There are no coincidences here. They're destroying the supply chain, the grid, controlling the surveillance of the internet, destroying the economy and coming in with their so-called solution with a ration based technocracy, entirely eliminating independence.

Episode 571 of the A Minute to Midnite Show. Constant big developments that threaten us all!

Investigative journalist James Corbett joins the program to explore one of the most urgent and profound questions of our time: What does it mean to be human in the age of AI and transhumanism?We examine historical turning points—like the invention of the Gutenberg press, which revolutionized access to knowledge but was fiercely suppressed by those in power. We also draw powerful parallels to today's digital age, where the internet once promised liberation but is now increasingly policed and censored. From the war on free expression to the rise of artificial intelligence and bio-digital convergence, we discuss the threats—and opportunities—that lie ahead. Can we maintain our sovereignty of thought, mind, and soul in an era of accelerating technological control?Purchase his book or follow James Corbett @ https://CorbettReport.com

Dive into the shadowy world of Palantir Technologies on this gripping episode of No Way, Jose!, hosted by the fearless Jose Galison. Joined by Clint Russell, host of Liberty Lockdown, the duo unravels the enigmatic tech giant's ties to government surveillance, data manipulation, and its growing influence in global power structures. From its origins with CIA backing to its controversial contracts with military and intelligence agencies, they explore how Palantir's advanced data analytics tools might be shaping a dystopian future, all while questioning the implications for individual liberty and privacy.With a parapolitical and conspiratorial lens, Jose and Clint peel back the layers of Palantir's operations, scrutinizing its role in predictive policing, border security, and corporate overreach. Clint brings his libertarian perspective, warning of the dangers of unchecked technocratic power and its erosion of personal freedoms. Expect a no-holds-barred discussion that challenges mainstream narratives, exposes hidden agendas, and arms listeners with the knowledge to question the surveillance state.

In this week's episode, we look at five ways writers can avoid the self-destructive mindset trap of "comparisonitis", and five ways that comparing oneself to other writers can be useful. Once again it is time for Coupon of the Week! This coupon code will get you 50% off the audiobook of Cloak of Wolves, Book #2 in the Cloak Mage series, (as excellently narrated by Hollis McCarthy) at my Payhip store: WOLVES50 The coupon code is valid through August 5th, 2025. So if you need a new audiobook this summer, we've got you covered! TRANSCRIPT 00:00:00 Introduction and Writing Updates Hello, everyone. Welcome to Episode 259 of The Pulp Writer Show. My name is Jonathan Moeller. Today is July 11th, 2025, and today we are looking at why comparing yourself to other writers is a bad idea. Before that, we will do Coupon of the Week and have an update on my current writing progress. This week's coupon code will get you 50% off the audiobook of Cloak of Wolves, Book #2 in the Cloak Mage series (as excellently narrated by Hollis McCarthy) at my Payhip store, and that is WOLVES50. This coupon code is valid through August 5th, 2025. So if you need a new audiobook to listen to during your travels this summer, we have got you covered. Now let's have an update on my current writing projects. I'm pleased to report that Shield of Power is 100% done, completing the Shield War series. You can get Shield of Power at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Google Play, Apple Books, Smashwords and my own Payhip store. It's been selling briskly and it's gotten good reviews so far, so thank you very much to everyone who has bought and enjoyed the book. Now that Shield of Power is done, the first third of my Super Summer of Finishing Things is complete. So what's next? My next main project is Stealth and Spells Online: Final Quest. It was originally going to be named Reactant, but I changed the title to Final Quest to emphasize really and truly and definitively that this is the final book in the trilogy. In fact, I'm already done with the rough draft and I am done with the first phase of editing it as of this recording. If you've been listening to the podcast for a long time, you know how I frequently say that if you keep chipping away the novel over a long enough time, sooner or later you'll finish it. That is exactly what happened here. Since October of 2024, I've been writing 500 words a day on Final Quest, and this piled up over time enough so that after Shield of Power came out, I only had 3,000 more words to write to finish Final Quest, and I did that in an afternoon. One more phase of editing on that and then I would like to have Stealth and Spells Online: Final Quest out before July 22nd, if all goes well. I'm also 21,000 words into Ghost in the Siege, which will be my main project once Final Quest is finished. Ghost in the Siege will be the sixth and final book in the Ghost Armor series and will hopefully cap off my Super Summer of Finishing Things. In audiobook news, Shield of Battle (as excellently narrated by Brad Wills) is now out. You can get it at Audible, Amazon, Apple, and Google Play as of this recording. Because of some difficulties with Findaway Voices, it's going to take a little bit longer to get into the other stores, but I'm working on a way to do that and as I mentioned before, Ghost in the Corruption (as excellently narrated by Hollis McCarthy ) is done and just has to finish processing on the various stores, and so hopefully that should be out before too much longer. So that's where I'm at with my current writing and audiobook projects. 00:02:52 Main Topic: Comparison Now let's move right on to our main topic, The Dangers of Comparison. In Episode 257, we started a series on mindset for writers. In some of the previous series I've talked about some of the practical ways to help with distractions, procrastination, and managing time wasters. In this series, we're going to focus on things that derail writers from a mindset perspective because as we know with any endeavor in life, mindset is something like three quarters of the battle where if you convince yourself that you're going to fail before you start, you're probably going to fail. So that's why it's important to have an appropriate mindset to the task at hand. Today we're going to focus on comparing yourself to others, and I will share five reasons it's not a great idea to compare yourself to others aimlessly and how to shift your focus to five more constructive ways to compare your work to other authors. Comparisons are a constant of the reading world. Librarians and Goodreads reviewers talk constantly about “readalikes” or finding books that have similar themes or settings. Book displays and shops and libraries love to group similar books or authors together. People look at the bestseller lists like they're sports scores. Dollar amounts in publishing deals are a constant source of gossip and jealousy. Sometimes comparison is useful, especially when creating ads or finding the right demographics to market to. Other times, it can lead to limiting or self-destructive thoughts. So let's start off with five reasons not to compare yourself to others. #1: It can limit you creatively. It can be easy to look at the bestseller list and try to think of ways to write a similar book. Following publishing trends keeps you from your most creative work and frankly isn't as enjoyable to write and most likely for your readers to read. Also, unless you're a fast writer, the publishing world might have moved on by the time you finished that book. In fact, I just saw a thread on social media about that where the commenter was bemoaning the fact that she used to enjoy what's now called cozy fantasy, but that as the genre has evolved, it's developed established tropes and the writers of it are not willing to variate from those tropes. So you have what she said in her words were dozens of clones of Lattes and Legends and Bookshops and Bone Dusts floating around, which is a tricky thread to balance, I do admit, because you want something that'll appeal to the reader, but then the readers like familiarity. What they really seem to like is familiarity presented to them in a way they've never seen before, which can be a challenge when you are trying to look at the bestseller list and limit yourself creatively. #2: What other people are doing is out of your control. You can't control if a book you think isn't as good as yours is suddenly the runaway hit of the year or an author who isn't experienced as you suddenly gets a movie deal. You can't control their success, so don't worry about it or get upset by it. You can control if you're wasting time online mocking those people or complaining about it, for example. That's a waste of your time and energy and doesn't actually make you feel better in the long run (and possibly in the short run as well). I believe in psychology and in military theory for that matter, there's something called the locus of control where you identify the things that you can control and then you drill in and focus in on the things you can control rather than worrying about the things you can't control. As we said, if an author who wrote a book you don't think is very good or you don't personally like has had a massive amount of success, there's nothing you can do about that and worrying about it is a waste of time and comparing yourself to that writer is also a waste of time. So that's why it's a better idea to focus in on what you can control. #3: You're not being fair to yourself. Comparing yourself to other authors, especially as an aspiring or new author, isn't being fair to yourself. They have years (if not decades) of experience that you don't have. It's like comparing yourself to an ultra-marathoner when you're someone who's just starting to jog and struggling to get all the way around the block, which is some of the tricky parts of someone like me giving advice to new writers because Shield of Power was my 163rd book and Stealth and Spells Online: Final Quest will be my 164th. I've been doing this for a long time, which means I probably know what I'm talking about, but that not everything I do is immediately reproducible by someone who hasn't been doing it as long as I have. If you're writing something that's not as marketable or in a smaller genre, it's not fair to compare yourself to people in the biggest genre or even your own previous work. For example, I can't compare the amount one of my technical books earns to one of my fantasy books. If I did that, it'd be a disappointment. But in reality, my technical books have had steady success and have even been used as textbooks at times (which is always surprising when I discovered that's happened because my Windows Command Line book and my Linux Command Line book have both been used as textbooks at various times, which was a surprise to me because that's not what I expected when I set out to write them, but I'm glad that they've been able to be useful for people). #4: And point number four, which I think is a really important one, someone's online life is only the highlight reel of someone's actual life. Looking at someone's social media accounts isn't a great way to know what they're actually doing or how they're actually doing. Just because they're posting pictures of tropical vacations, speaking at conferences, or showing off shiny new stuff doesn't mean you're seeing the full picture of how they're actually doing. As I said in a recent episode that when I was applying for disability insurance (just in case I need it someday), I learned that writers are actually one of the hardest professions to insure due to their high rates of mental illness and substance abuse. You might see the good stuff, but they might not be posting the challenges that come with their success: increased stress and anxiety, more criticism, the need to hire people and how much time it takes to manage them, more complicated taxes, increased business expenses, and relationship problems from the demands of success. These are all things that can accompany success. You're not getting the whole picture. You need to keep that in mind when you compare yourself to people online. The best fictional example out of this that applies to so many situations is Lord Denethor and the Palantir from Return of the King. If you read the book, Denethor has been using the Palantir for years to spy on Sauron and give advantages to his forces and the soldiers of Gondor. But Sauron is able to manipulate what Denethor sees in the Palantir and has been gradually using this to create an edited version of what Denethor sees in the Palantir, and that drives Denethor to despair and eventual suicide. People talk about the increased rates of mental illness related to social media. Sauron did that deliberately to Denethor through the Palantir. It's a sign of how good J.R.R. Tolkien was a writer that he managed to anticipate the effects that Facebook would have on some people by like 60 years. So always bear that in mind when you're looking at someone online and feeling jealous of them. You are not getting the whole picture and there are more than likely things going on that are difficulties in their life that they just don't talk about. #5: Your time is better spent writing than comparing yourself to other writers. And this is back to our old friend, the locus of control. Looking at other authors' sales ranks and reviews is not a productive use of your time. As I mentioned in the writing adjacent activities series, you need to be purposeful in non-writing tasks that take up your time and make sure you're not pretending they're writing related. If you need to compare sales ranks or some other data point with other authors or something you're actively working on like ad targeting, schedule that time and don't let it turn into an Internet spiral of time wasting. And now to avoid those Internet spirals of time wasting, here are five ways to use comparisons positively and constructively. #1: Number one, getting keywords or demographics for marketing purposes. For sites like BookBub or when creating keyword ads, knowing authors who are similar to you is incredibly helpful and can help you structure your ads. And this doesn't even necessarily require you to read the other author's books to see if they actually compare. There are tools that let you expedite this process. For example, if you look on Amazon at the Also Boughts, you can scroll through some of that and see which other authors and which other books people have bought in addition to your own and then you can test using those for keyword targeting. On Goodreads, people put books in lists or compare books. You can use that data to generate keywords for ad targeting. You can test them very easily. With BookBub ads in particular, if you build a campaign around just a single author and keywords and test the results. You can quickly see whether a specific author generates an appropriate click-through rate for you to use or not. #2: A second way is to find authors you might want to do a promo with. Some authors, especially in the romance genre, do really well with group promotions. Finding other authors that write similar books and are at a similar level of success may be a way to take advantage of that. I've never actually set up a group promo, but I have participated in several of them from time to time with pretty good results. #3: A third way is to better understand reader preferences in a genre. My best story for this is I've gone through six different variations of cover design for the Silent Order series. When I started out, I was using GIMP and stock photo images. GIMP is the free Linux version of Photoshop essentially. After I learned Photoshop, I upgraded to characters on the covers, but they never quite sold quite as well until finally I saw a Penny Arcade comic where they were commenting how they just want to buy books where they have spaceships in close proximity to planets on the covers. And I thought, huh, that makes a lot of sense. So I redesigned all the covers to have a spaceship in close proximity to a planet, and the series immediately started selling a fair bit better with those covers. I would say that was not so much a comparison thing, just a genre preference I stumbled across and then had sort of the moment of enlightenment that I did. But if I had looked at the bestseller list for various science fiction categories, I would have realized that most of the bestsellers had spaceships and planets in close proximity to each other on the cover. So I redesigned all the covers. It was just that I was too fond of the character based covers to give them up until I had that moment of revelation. So all the main books in the series were redesigned to have the spaceship covers, though for the free short stories, I did keep the character covers just because I was giving away the free short stories and I did like the character covers, so I got to have my cake and eat it too, which was nice. #4: Learn from the successes and failures of others. You can learn from what another author does well. For example, Brandon Sanderson is very good at communicating his writing progress and other updates to his fans through weekly video messages on YouTube. Other authors are good at collaborating with other authors, while others make engaging and funny videos that make people more interested in their work. Knowing your own strengths is an important first step. If you're just trying to follow everyone who is a success without first reflecting on that, you'll chase too many options and then can't excel at any of them. You can also learn from when an author responds poorly and how the Internet reacts to it. Understandably, I'm not going to give specific examples here. For myself, I tend to focus on what I do best, which is writing really fast and doing social media updates. I never got into video because I kind of have a face for radio and I just don't enjoy doing video. I don't enjoy editing them. It's a lot of work that I don't really enjoy, so I don't do it. #5: Being informed makes comparisons less emotional. Knowing, for example, that an author was hired to write a book based on an existing outline created by the publisher, and then promised a future book deal with a big marketing budget in a preferred genre as part of the contract makes their cross-genre success seem less surprising and makes you feel less guilty for not being able to do the same on your own as an indie author. It's not a fair comparison because they have advantages that you can't understand without some industry knowledge. For people that compare themselves to me, for example, they should know that I've been writing since I was a teenager a very long time ago. I was an early adopter of self-publishing when it was less competitive and I usually work more than eight hours a day and I generally keep to a very rigid writing schedule. Some authors like me were able to get the rights back to their earlier published works and then self-publish them early on in order to finish a series, which is much less likely to be an option in a contract for a traditionally published author now. If you're just starting out, travel frequently for work, and only have an hour a day to write (and even that is dicey because your partner would rather you spend that time on some other activity because they don't support your writing), you can't possibly compare your writing output to mine. Knowing all this about me explains why it might be harder for you and why you shouldn't feel bad about having a harder time with writing. Comparison has been called “The Thief of Joy” all over social media for many years. That can definitely be true, but like so many things in life, how you respond to something and find ways to help it make you stronger is what really matters. Comparison has its place in the writing world, but it's important to keep it in perspective and not to let it overwhelm you emotionally or keep you from your writing goals or plans. So that is it for talking about comparison. I hope that was helpful and offered some useful tips on how to avoid the trap of comparison-itis. So that's it for this week.

Josh Sigurdson reports on the massive flip flop by President Donald Trump as he sends more weapons in the hundreds of millions of dollars to Ukraine to fight Russia as well as to NATO countries to do the same. Trump ran on stopping World War 3 but seems to have completely forgotten his own pledges and his criticism of Biden's arming and funding of Ukraine. Now, suddenly Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio are claiming they never said they wouldn't arm Ukraine. An obvious example of gaslighting. At the same time, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth made a video in front of the Pentagon talking about their new increase in drone based warfare. Something that Palantir knows a thing or two about as the AI based drone surveillance and militarism system gets further propped up. The United States is building more air bases and ammunition warehouses in Israel as they prepare for further war with Iran after claiming that Iran is still close to building nuclear weapons. This all puts the United States into conflicts with Iran, Russia and China. After Trump spent $1 trillion on the military budget, the largest in history, he's also nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by none other than Benjamin Netanyahu. They're laughing at us. Meanwhile, the European Union is stocking up quickly on food and minerals in the face of impending war. Are you? Stay tuned for more from WAM!

Chrissy Stroop, a leading voice in the #Exvangelical movement, brings historical insight and personal experience to a conversation that traces the Christian right's rise to power from the Reagan era to its disturbing alignment with Russian authoritarianism today. This week's bonus show explores how evangelical leaders used strategic alliances, particularly the anti-abortion movement, to unite conservative Christians and Catholics under a single political banner. Stroop explains how this coalition gained momentum during Reagan's presidency and has since embedded itself deeply into U.S. policymaking. Particularly troubling is the influence of Christian nationalists on education through the deregulation of homeschooling, often leaving children vulnerable due to lack of oversight. Stroop also highlights how Christian nationalism, once cloaked in calls for "religious freedom," now openly embraces authoritarian tactics. The alignment with Vladimir Putin's regime, admired by many on the far right, underscores a global trend toward anti-democratic ideologies under the guise of defending “traditional values.” Yet, amidst the bleak realities, Stroop points to reasons for hope. Grassroots activism is on the rise, as communities across the country push back against oppressive legislation and public protests grow more frequent. Organizers are working tirelessly to safeguard democracy and protect civil liberties, especially for marginalized groups targeted by these far-right movements. The episode is a sobering reminder of how deeply Christian nationalism is embedded in American history, but also a call to action. As this bonus show emphasizes, defending democracy requires vigilance, public engagement, and an unwavering commitment to truth. EVENTS AT GASLIT NATION: NEW DATE!

Josh Sigurdson reports on the rapid development of robots set to live in your house, take your jobs and force you into a technocratic world order with UBI and 15 Minute Cities. 1X in Palo Alto launched an ad showing walking, talking robots in the work place recently and Elon Musk's Optimus robot is being placed in homes throughout the world with the ability to do laundry, dishes, dance and of course surveil. It's promoted as a cheap and revolutionary technological development, yet most of us know the real truth behind this role out. Elon Musk who recently created The America Party claims AI will take ALL jobs and destroy humanity. He's also the main person developing it while calling for people to put chips in their brains attached to Pentagon funded mesh networks as he replaces his own workers with AI. He just sold X to XAI for 33 billion dollars, a symbolic number and now X is partnering with Visa to launch XMoney which will be a digital payment system attached to his social credit digital ID network called X. Meanwhile, frenemy President Donald Trump recently tapped Palantir to create a database on all Americans, put 500 billion dollars into AI, met with the Saudis alongside Musk, Karp of Palantir, Sam Altman of Open AI among many others to create a global AI alliance for weapons and employment. He also included massive AI provisions in his so-called "Big Beautiful Bill" and stripped states of the right to individually regulate AI, passing it to the federal government. All of this is happening as emergency orders for countless conflicts are launched across the board. Scientists are also creating synthetic human DNA from scratch right now.

Air Date 7/9/2025 It's an old joke that "military intelligence" is a good example of an oxymoron so I just asked an AI chatbot to finish a joke about what a military becomes when they implement artificial intelligence. It said, "an oxymoron squared - or as the generals call it, "strategically enhanced stupidity with a confidence interval of 95%" which is not funny but still managed to be pretty on point regarding the dangers of overconfidence that inevitably follows from the implementation of new technology.

On this episode of Market Mondays, we sat down with Pastor Jamal Bryant to break down the Target boycott and the importance of economic empowerment. He emphasized how collective economics can be used as a tool for real change in our communities.We also covered major market news—Tesla's decline tied to Elon's “America Party,” Ric Edelman's crypto allocation advice (10–40%), and the impact of the newly passed INVEST AMERICA ACT. Other topics included Ethereum's rise on Wall Street, Sam Altman's political shift, and signs of a potential AI bubble.Lastly, we looked at the market rally: Is it real or just top-heavy? We discussed Bitcoin whale moves, Palantir's $795M contract, and why companies like Robinhood and MicroStrategy are still excluded from the S&P 500 despite massive growth.

Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Reid Hoffman, Max Levchin, David O. Sacks, Roelof Botha, Chad Hurley, Russel Simmons, and Jeremy Stoppelman are among those considered the “PayPal Mafia”. These are cofounders or early team members of PayPal who went on to found or invest in major tech companies like Yelp, Palantir, YouTube, Facebook, SpaceX, X, LinkedIn, Affirm, Airbnb, and others. In this episode, CJ is joined by Jimmy Soni, bestselling author of The Founders, which chronicles the early years of PayPal. He delves into some of the lesser-known aspects of PayPal's history. He sheds light on Peter Thiel's prediction of the dot-com collapse, why he advocated for the employment of Roelof Botha as CFO at the age of just 26, and his second-chance philosophy for hiring failures. The conversation covers PayPal's “frenemy relationship” with eBay, how they convinced their users to advocate for them, and pivotal moments that influenced their IPO and sale.

What did we tell you last July about the events that took place in Butler, PA? We told you that, in our opinion, presidential candidate Donald Trump received a warning shot to his right ear, and given instructions as to how he was to run his presidency once taking office in November. We told you multiple times since then that the truth about Jeffrey Epstein would never come out, and today the Trump administration has forever buried it. The client list that Pam Bondi said she saw along with the ‘mountain of videos' has officially ceased to exist. Donald Trump wants you to know that, despite all the flight logs, Jeffrey Epstein acted alone and committed suicide in his cell. That's the memo.“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” Proverbs 29:2 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, the official statement from Trump's FBI and DOJ reads in part as follows “This systematic review revealed no incriminating “client list”. There was no credible evidence found that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals as part of his actions. We did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties.” BUT WAIT A MINUTE!! Didn't Pam Bondi say that she had a “mountain of evidence” on her desk about his client list and murder and that she was reviewing it?? She surely did, but today every bit of that has magically blown away with the wind like it was never here. Donald Trump is leading one of the biggest conspiratorial coverups since Watergate, and is counting on the stupidity and short memory of the American people to make all this go away. It's time to splash yourself with some Trump Victory cologne and slap on your MAGA hat blinders as we bring you the answers the Trump administration won't.

On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Gregor Gimmy, founder of 27pilots, a company dedicated to helping companies build and scale Venture Client units and allows them to benefit from startup innovations faster at large scale and significantly lower cost and risk than traditional corporate venturing methods. On this episode we will explore how this Venture Client model is shaping corporate innovation, the strategic benefits it offers, and how companies can adopt this game-changing approach to stay ahead in a competitive world. KEY TAKEAWAYS When I joined BMW in 2012 I was surprised to find out the small number of startups that it was leveraging to improve its technology landscape across its value chain. I told them that CVCs were investing in 2.8 startups per year. This is not nearly the number needed to solve all the technology challenges that we have, we need more like 100. My initial idea was not to invent a new model but to improve the current one. I was told that if they invested in 50 startups per year they would have around 250 startups in 5 years whose equity state we would have to manage, which is impossible. I concluded that VC isn't scalable, but it didn't solve the problem BMW had either, which was accessing, adopting, and transferring cutting edge technology fast because it's about investment not technology transfer. These are two totally different business processes. We needed to look for a new approach: becoming a Venture Client. Accelerators and CVCs are indirect models – like using a third party's battery technology in the cars you produce – you first make the investment and then do the adoption of the technology. The different in the Venture Client model is cutting out the middleman. If you want to be good at something you need a dedicated unit. If you do it part time it will only work partly. If you make it a department you can have more time you can dedicate to it, you can have a dedicated budget, you have a more solid KPI structure. BEST MOMENTS ‘More than getting into the world of Venture Client Modelling, I invented the world.' ‘A Venture Client is a company that adopts startup technologies through procurement and M&A.' ‘A corporate cannot compete against a good startup like Palantir or Oracle when they were startups.' ‘The Venture Client model will displace Corporate Venture Capital to become the standard of corporate venturing.' ABOUT THE GUEST As captain of the 27pilots endeavour, and the visionary behind the Venture Client model, Gregor GImmy focuses on advancing Venture Client knowledge and growing the global community through 27pilots' corporate clients and academic allies. Gregor is deeply engaged in researching, publishing, and lecturing on the Venture Client model through leading business schools and top business engagements. Gregor is also a frequent speaker at startup-relevant conferences such as Slush, Web Summit, 4YFN and DLD. ABOUT THE HOST Sabine is a corporate strategist turned entrepreneur.

In this thought-provoking Market Mondays clip, the hosts Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings dive into the intersection of war, technology, and market resilience. They start by breaking down the “war index” — highlighting major players like Palantir, Anderil, OpenAI, Microsoft, and Meta — and reveal how data and algorithms are the new battlegrounds alongside traditional military might. Discover why having user data on 3.4 billion people gives Meta unprecendented influence, and how information (and propaganda) shape global conflict just as much as firepower.The conversation pivots to current geopolitical flashpoints, including Yemen's bold entry into the fray, the critical importance of waterways like the Strait of Hormuz, and the complex dance between America, Israel, Iran, China, and Russia. Does long-term regime change trigger more instability? Rashad explores lessons from history, the risks of forced changes, and what global players want for Iran's future.But it's not all global tension! The clip also covers how the markets respond to conflict, why “the market is literally rigged to stay up,” and tactical investment tips on stocks like Palantir and Meta, especially as they break new all-time highs.Crypto fans, this one's for you too—debate heats up over Bitcoin, Jack Dorsey versus Michael Saylor, and the ever-polarizing XRP. Rashad opens up about his fraught relationship with the XRP crowd and pushes Ian and Troy to weigh in: will XRP ever hit $10,000, or will institutional power always win out?Plus, hear exclusive details about Invest Fest, including a raffle for an all-expenses-paid trip to Ghana and special appearances from the likes of Jack Dorsey and past panelists like Cathie Wood.

Tommy and Ben grapple with the fallout from Trump and Netanyahu's war with Iran. They talk about how America's massive bunker buster bombs didn't solve the problem of Iran's nuclear program, why the strikes were illegal under international law, and how the drumbeat for regime change will never go away. They also discuss the short-term thinking and triumphalism running rampant in DC and the media and Israel's own under-the-radar nuclear program. Additionally, they cover this week's NATO summit and Trump's less-than-reassuring statement on mutual defense for member countries, some rare good news about a prisoner release in Belarus, how companies like Palantir could fast-track us into a surveillance state, and why Jeff Bezos's Venice wedding is going off the rails. Then, Ben speaks with Nilo Tabrizy, a visual forensics reporter at the Washington Post and co-author of the forthcoming book, For the Sun After Long Nights: The Story of Iran's Women-Led Uprising, about how Iranian civilians have experienced the last 12 days. For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.
