In this episode of the InsuranceAUM.com Podcast, host Stewart Foley, CFA, sits down with Anthony Giambrone and Stephen West, both Managing Directors on the Venture Capital and Growth team at StepStone, to explore an asset class that isn't traditionally front and center for insurance portfolios: venture capital. They discuss why insurers may want to consider VC exposure, how the asset class has evolved over the years, and what strategies can help insurance investors navigate this space. With insurance investment portfolios becoming more diversified, Anthony and Stephen share insights on why venture capital has gained traction among institutional investors, how secondaries and emerging managers fit into the equation, and why consistency is key when allocating to VC. They also touch on the impact of AI, changing IPO dynamics, and the role of data in investment decision-making. Don't miss this deep dive into an asset class that could reshape insurance investing.

Bryan Hubbard: The Most Sophisticated Medication on the Planet | Joe Rogan Experience (#2251) The Magic of Ibogaine: Ibogaine can fully resolve physiological opioid dependence with a single administration for 80% of people the first time, and 97% with a second dose!How ibogaine works: “Ibogaine has this incredible ability to reset the brain's dopamine and serotonin production back to normal levels in 36 to 48 hours” – W. Bryan Hubbard* Abstinence-only has a 7% success rateAre there any risks? There's a serious cardiac risk with ibogaine* It can prolong the QT interval, which means the beats between your heart slow down too much, and it can stop your heart* If it's not administered properly, someone could die* WARNING: Don't try to order ibogaine online or find a random clinicSafer Ibogaine Analog in Development: Gilgamesh Pharma was awarded a $14M grant from the NIH-NIDA to develop a novel analog that removes this heart riskibogaine's three key benefits:* Resolves physiological substance dependence quickly* Restores psychological ownership and control over life* Provides a profound spiritual affirmation of purposeIbogaine Has Been Illegal for Decades: “Any system which maintains ibogaine's criminality is in fact criminal and needs to be torn apart brick by brick.” – W. Bryan HubbardNeed Help, Look Here- Reputable clinics like Ambio and Beond follow strict safety protocols, including using magnesium to prevent heart issuesStamford Study in Special Forces PTSD: “The results of that study are nothing short of miraculous when it comes to how ibogaine has been revealed to have significant neuro-regenerative properties that impact the human brain with profound implications for conditions for which there are no current effective treatments.” – W.Bryan Hubbard* The average reversal of brain age among these 30 veterans was 1.5 years with some of them seeing a reversal of almost 5 years!The Truth Behind Lots of Chronic Pain: “These ladies had worked lifetimes looking at a dead jobs end and at the time that they had their work accident, it was the straw that broke the camel's back for any hope they had of a future defined by dignity and autonomy and their hope had been broken and that broken hope came through as profound physical pain that was rooted within their spirit.” - Brian HubbardTruth and Justice: He thought the law was about truth and justice, but law school opened his eyes: “Law is often times nothing other than the tyrants will and always so when it is used to produce predetermined manipulated outcomes in the hands of judges who drive results based on their own individual biases, predilections, and preferences.” – W. Bryan HubbardSkyrocketing Disability Numbers in Kentucky: The population grew by 20%, but disability enrollment rose by 249%* Childhood disability enrollment exploded by over 4,000%* Prescription opioid use among adults in the program increased by 210%* Psychotropic drug use among children rose by 68% How to Use Exercise to Improve Your Brain's Health, Longevity & Performance | Huberman Lab 4 things everyone should include in their weekly exercise routine:* (1) Long slow distance (LSD) / zone 2 cardio* (2) High-intensity interval training (HIIT)* (3) Time under tension (TUT) resistance training* (4) Explosive and eccentric control training* BONUS: (5) Do something you don't want to do (both psychologically and physically challenging but safe) to activate the anterior mid-cingulate cortex (AMCC)2 Types of Cardio:* Short-duration, high-intensity efforts: e.g., 30 seconds to 4 minutes of all-out effort, followed by rest* Longer-duration, lower-intensity efforts: e.g., 20-60 minutes at a steady pace, maintaining elevated heart rates2 Types of Resistance Training:* Compound, multi-joint exercises like squats, deadlifts, bench presses, shoulder presses, and dips* Single-joint isolation exercises like single-leg leg extensionsIncreases in autonomic arousal, whether during or after learning, enhance:* How much you learn* Your memory of the details* The persistence of that learning over timeValue of HIIT: HIIT done just before cognitive flexibility tasks significantly improves performance on those tasks, probably because of enhanced arousal and increased cerebral blood flowYou're Not Tired Because You Exercises, You're Tired Because You Didn't Exercise: Next time you feel tired and want to skip a workout, remember: Exercise actually gives you energy through these pathways, boosting focus and mental clarityAdrenal burnout is a myth: People often talk about burning out your adrenals from coffee or excessive exercise. This isn't trueAdrenal insufficiency syndrome is real, but it's not related to exercise or coffee. This is a medical condition that's different from the normal stress-response system of your body3 categories of brain areas communicate with the adrenals to release adrenaline:* Cognitive areas: Involved in thinking and decision-making* Affective areas: Linked to emotions and how you perceive and react to the environment* Motor areas: Control your body movement. These areas in the cerebral cortex send signals to the spinal cord, which then triggers the release of acetylcholine to activate the adrenal medulla The Technological Republic – Palantir CEO Alex Karp & Stanley Druckenmiller In Conversation Talented people want to be around other talented people: If you are starting a team that already consists of immensely talented people, then other A-players will want to join; this dynamic positively compounds with time and becomes reflexiveThe type of person you want to hire: A truth-seeking, justice-seeking, fairness fanatic, who is justifiably snobby about their intellect (but not because of where they went to school) and who pushes responsibility into their area of expertise and takes over – and who, at the margin, may be unusual and difficultThe moral and ethical conundrums of modern warfare: The West is at technological parity with its adversaries, but not morally; our adversaries are far more willing to send their young men and women to die on the battlefield than we areOn AI Accelerationism – The US military does not have a choice regarding AI accelerationism; its adversaries will not slow down AI progress, and therefore, the game theory is such that the US cannot slow down eitherLaw School Sucks: “I thought of it as moral sophistry in the service of prestige.”Go Woke, Go Broke: “The Valley has realized that you just cannot placate the anti-intellectual left. It will destroy your business.” – Alex Karp* Basic things that most sane believe in are fairness, meritocracy, inputs being even across society, and that the outputs will not be evenly distributed* “Our society is crying for things that work. The instruments of measurement have been corroded everywhere.” – Alex KarpThe Left Broke Everything: People are sick of their border not being a border, their United Nations not being united, their schools not functioning as schools, and their government only taking inflows but not creating productive outflowsAn Essentialism Future: Every institution must clearly define its purpose, be transparent in what it spends to reach its objectives, and measure its output – which should be greater than its input Volodymyr Zelenskyy: Ukraine, War, Peace, Putin, Trump, NATO, and Freedom | Lex Fridman Podcast (#456) Peace Through Strength: " “I think that we share a position on peace through strength. That is very important. It means that if you are strong, you can speak.” - ZelenskyyTrump can stop this war: “I now see that when I talk about something with Donald Trump, whether we meet in person or we just have a call, all the European leaders always ask, “How was it?” This shows the influence of Donald Trump, and this has never happened before with an American president.” – ZelenskyyNo US, No NATO: If the U.S. left NATO, it would essentially fall apart. The U.S. is critical to NATO's strength and global security. The role America played in World War II shows how much its support matters in conflicts like thisForgiveness? “Russia will have to apologize. This will happen because they are guilty.”– ZelenskyyUkraine's future is with Europe, not Russia: “I think the most important thing is to remain open and not change our direction because culturally aligning with Russia, it's one idea, while aligning with Europe is another. Our people have chosen Europe. It's their choice, it's our choice, the choice of our nation, and I think it's very important.” – Zelenskyy Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky | Philosophize This! with Stephen West (#219) Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky: A tormented man wrestles with guilt and morality after a desperate act, unraveling a gripping exploration of justice, redemption, and the human soul.“Rational utopianism” – A belief that suggests through utilitarian rational calculations, we can arrive at moral truth and create a utopian socialist system of organizing people that can be perfected if this moral calculus improves over time2 Problems with rational utopianism and Russian nihilism:* (1) Consider how quickly Raskolnikov's perfectly crafted plan resulted in an innocent person getting an axe to the head; and* (2) The rational egoism that often accompanies Russian nihilism magically places Raskolnikov at the center of the decision-maker processRaskolnikov is not an example of Nietzsche's Ubermensch: Instead, he is an example of a very particular kind of nihilism that was gaining popularity in Russia at the time Dostoevsky wrote the bookYou're Not That Special: Dostoevsky was very skeptical of any individual who thought they were special compared to the people around themThe Stories We Tell Ourselves: “It is uniquely possible in this modern world to exist in a way where your whole life never becomes about facing the discomfort of looking at yourself honestly, but about endlessly rationalizing your behavior and then coming up with a story that sounds pretty good about it.” – Stephen WestSave What You Can: The choices that we have to make are not always optimal and they are often dictated by circumstances that are outside of our control; but no matter the circumstances in this sometimes horrible world, there is always at least some personal salvation that is possible in consent and affirmation of our place in a relational networkAccountability: Taking accountability for what you are wrong about is one of the only ways to grow as a person and is one of the most powerful things that you can do in your life Thank you for subscribing.

They also offer a Black Music & Hoodoo tour and ‘The Blackest Ghost Tour' which sound like incredible experiences. https://www.anansisdaughters.com/ For metaphysical shops, we recommend the Sassy Magick and Sassy Magick Noir locations and Path of Awakening.

We revisited the theme of the Satanic Panic (which we covered in an earlier episode) but had a lively discussion on the historical conservative moral panics that seem to follow socially progressive eras; and more importantly, how they're continuing to unfold in current events. We talk about the fall of the Roman Republic, the fall of the Weimar Republic, social reactions to the Civil Rights Movement and second wave feminism in America in the late 60's/70's, the Satanic Panic in the 80's/90's, and the current iterations of cult guru Teal Swan and the Q Anon conspiracy theories. We draw heavily on the podcasts Conspirituality, Behind the Bastards, and You're Wrong About. For more about the fall of the Roman Republic, Lauren highly recommends The Storm Before The Storm by Mike Duncan or his podcast The History of Rome.
