Matt Stang, Co-Founder of Swannie's golf joins the pod to chat about hooping 2 eagles from over 150 out against Hagel, what it's like to run a golf apparel company and his background in golf playing in high school, being an Evans scholar and more!

Karl Swannie was a geographer working in the scenic city of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, when he started analyzing social media data based on location. He quickly saw there was valuable real-time information that was not being used, so he started Echosec Systems to find a practical use for those insights. After several years of experiments and hard startup lessons learned, Echosec finally shifted from being an inexpensive news/insights service to a comprehensive threat intelligence service for large organizations. Echosec Systems is now a leading open-source intelligence service (OSINT) that uses publicly available information (PAI) from social media and other sources. They help public and private organizations improve situational awareness and identify threats using geographic insights with real-time data. Echosec was partially sold to a "search fund" called The Tusker Fund in 2020 and Jeff Oldenburg came in as CEO to scale the company, which he did. In 2022, Flashpoint acquired Echosec completely and the business continues to grow. In this episode, Karl explains: How they started as an inexpensive B2C solution and then pivoted to large B2B deals with big organizations What it's like to be a Canadian software company selling a threat detection service to large organizations around the world How they finally started to scale when they focused on the largest customers with the biggest needs How he worked with a private investor to start the company but used venture debt to grow it when they were profitable What a "search fund" is and why this was a great fit to partially acquire the company and bring in an experienced CEO What it was like to sell the company and not be the CEO-in-charge any more What he learned about himself in this journey that he is applying to his next venture Find out more at practicalfounders.com. 

I wanted to discuss the natural resources industry today – energy and mining – because I see an industry caught between a rock and a hard place. If I get a bit ranty, I apologise. But this impossible situation makes me get a little frothy at the mouth, because it is in large part so unnecessary – and not the making of the industry itself, but of idiotic policy.We, as investors, however, need to understand the binds in which businesses find themselves, so here goes.We'll start with supply chains.Disrupted first by Covid-19, then the Ukraine War, then more lockdowns in China, supply chains are still not working as they should. You don't need me to tell you that delays cost money. Imagine a workforce ready to go, and being paid – but without the right equipment to get started. Money is draining out of one side and nothing is coming in on the other. This is particularly punishing where capital is tight. And boy, is capital tight in mining.Then there is, as we all know, dramatic inflation in input costs, especially energy. Budgets to production are going up, up and up. Money is also tight because of lack of investment. This lack of investment takes many forms. First there is under-investment from outside. ESG (environmental, social and governance) guidelines determine where many fund managers allocate capital. Oil, gas and mining, for obvious reasons, tend not to score so well on ESG, so capital is not allocated there and the industry is starved of funds.What's so hypocritical is that ESG demands, and the decarbonised future it wants, require enormous amounts of the very products that its investment guidelines steer it away from: metals. Copper, tin, silver, lithium, cobalt, palladium, platinum, nickel, manganese, rare earths – the list goes on. They are all essential to a low-carbon future. But how are they to be produced without investment?Vast amounts of carbon must be burnt to achieve decarbonisation, yet oil and gas have also suffered from lack of investment. It's one of the reasons prices are now so high – lack of new supply. Yet instead the companies involved are accused of ramping up the price and profiteering. The industry is wary of expansion tooThen there is a lack of investment from within. The industry still has memories of 2013-14, when mining in particular had, as metals analyst, Nicholas Snowden of Goldman Sachs puts it, a “near death experience”. The collapse in the oil price decimated energy too.This near-death experience followed the bonanza of the 2000s, when it seemed that metals and energy prices could only go higher, driven first by China's seemingly insatiable appetite for natural resources, and then the money printing post-2008, during which the US exported incredible amounts of inflation. But those soaring prices suddenly came to a halt. Supply met demand, prices collapsed and with them the oil, gas and mining industries. Many companies went under. People lost their jobs and their livelihoods. Worse still, those who work in the mining industry tend to have a habit of investing in mines too – so their investments went down the Swannie as well.As a result there is “internalised trauma” – Snowden's words again – and it is now uber-cautious. Nobody wants to be the stupid guy who blows fortunes on projects that prove uneconomic. So despite all the shortages in energy and metals we keep reading about, the industry is still cautious – probably a sensible mental space to be in.Rising commodities prices, especially those of oil and gas, may largely down to ten years of underinvestment, yet still the industry is reluctant to go all in. But can you blame it? Look at what's happening in markets across the board. We've got a spiralling US dollar, crashing bonds and equities, and money is tightening. Even the UK housing market looks dodgy. The next asset class that looks like it is puking is, despite everything, oil (and policy makers would actually welcome that). I was listening to a debate on Bloomberg last week between someone from the US government and someone from the US oil and gas industry. The former was demanding that oil companies re-invest their profits in the ground – in exploration – so that production can be increased and the load on the US consumer lightened. The latter was arguing that profits should be returned to investors in the form of dividends, as that's why they invested in the first place. The former then, basically, said that if you don't re-invest your profits in the ground of your own accord, we are going to force you to do it by government mandate. That's hardly going to entice further investment!What if companies are forced to put their profits back into the ground, and the price of the underlying commodity collapses? That's what the industry is so terrified of, so it tries to find a balance between re-investment and rewards to existing investors.Why should they re-invest capital, when governments have said they want an end to fossil fuels? What's the point?You (literally) can't get the staff these daysThis leads (in a tangential manner) to the talent issue. Few people desire the aggro of working in such difficult industries, when you could go and work in tech and earn more. Lack of talent leads to further delays. You can't get the people you need to build what you need them to build until next year or whenever they are next available. And, by the way, their fees are higher too.Let's say a company finally manages to navigate all of this and produce an essential commodity. With the high prices it charges, it is accused of profiteering. So a windfall tax is levied. Even the US is now talking about windfall taxes on oil and gas. (Windfall taxes, by the way, will not make oil and gas cheaper for consumers. They'll just make companies even more reluctant to invest and lead to further supply shortages).No wonder talent and investment go elsewhere.Then there is permitting, another hurdle. Look at the arguments in the UK about fracking. It's an obvious problem solver, but it's toxic. Any money put towards that is just going on legal bunfights, culture war and politics. Where's the return? Nuclear is another obvious solution. But look at the opposition. Look at the regulation. Look at the build times for nuclear reactors. We'll all be six foot under by the time it's done. Why risk capital in that? You're better off buying metal itself and stockpiling that in anticipation of higher prices – in many ways the equivalent of land-banking. Buy uranium, and base metal exchange-traded funds (ETFs). But that just means yet more metal is kept off market and prices go higher still.Cheaper energy and metals would mean lower inflation, but regulation, permitting and the ensuing arguments only push costs up, by delay and by process.I can see price collapses coming with this broader correction in equity markets – and then investment drying up altogether. But I can also see soaring prices and life getting very expensive for ordinary consumers. Capital preservation is everything. The natural resources industry is caught between a rock and a hard place. And unfortunately, that rather implies that the rest of us are too. This article first appeared at Moneyweek This is a public episode.

Growing up, my friend Tanner's dad Jim (Swannie) would always tell us stories about his baseball career. He would tell us that he was the only left-handed catcher in pro baseball. Recently my dad brought me a book that was written about him, confirming that. What is incredible is that Swannie didn't let anyone else's ideas or beliefs stop him from pursuing his dreams. "There aren't any left-handed catchers in baseball" "Not Yet", thought Swannie. This determination landed him on a team called the Portland Mavericks coached by actor Kurt Russell's dad, Bing. It was Swannie's determination and persistence that led him to his success. It is a great reminder to us all. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/learn-for-2/message

Hey Healthprenuers, today we’ve got another great episode of the Healthpreneur podcast. I’m going to be talking with James Swanwick, a good friend of mine who wears a ton of different hats. You’ll notice from his accent that he is Australian, but he’s been living in the states for some time now.  James is an investor, entrepreneur, and speaker. He’s super agile, in that he does a ton of different things and has a lot of cool experience. I’ll just go ahead and name a few things … He was a former Sportscenter anchor on EPSN, he hosts his own podcast called The James Swanwick Show, he owns Swanwick Sleep—a company that makes blue-light blocking glasses—and he created the 30 Day No Alcohol Challenge.  Oh, and Forbes named him one of the top 25 networking experts. Not really sure what that means, but pretty cool nonetheless! So, James has a ton of stuff going on and has a ton of experience to share with all of us. This episode is particularly important if you are interested in creating and launching a physical product, because James is going to share with you exactly how he came up with and created the Swannie blue-light blocking glasses. The info he unveils from this process will save you a lot of time and money, I guarantee it. In this episode, James and I discuss:  Why James was wearing a pair of ski goggles while watching TV in his apartment.  Why you don’t need to reinvent the wheel.  Selling on Amazon vs. selling on your own domain.  Being the dumbest person in the room—and why it’s a good thing.   The word “you.”  Giving and taking knowledge.  4:00 - 14:00 - Reinventing the wheel, and James’ ski goggle story.  14:00 - 20:00 - Starting small, the creation of Swanwick Sleep.  20:00 - 25:00 - Amazon, tips and tricks, the pros and cons.   25:00 - 32:00 - Surrounding yourself with the right people and asking yourself the right questions.  32:00 - 37:00 - The Rapid Five Questions.  37:00 - 45:00 - Yuri’s Take.
