In venture these days, it pays to be small and scrappy or huge and swimming in fees. Anywhere in between is a hard slog. Bradley walks through the changing VC landscape, using his own fund history as Exhibit A, and going into detail on his return to an “equity for services” model. Plus, why AOC should run for President rather than the US Senate, how AI could be utilized to revolutionize classrooms, and a fresh theory on why we can't resist TV villains.This episode was taped at P&T Knitwear at 180 Orchard Street — New York City's only free podcast recording studio.Send us an email with your thoughts on today's episode: info@firewall.media.Be sure to watch Bradley's new TED Talk on Mobile Voting at https://go.ted.com/bradleytusk.Subscribe to Bradley's weekly newsletter and follow Bradley on Linkedin + Substack + YouTube.
My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Patrick Naughton, Jr, author of the book Born from War. Originally from Hawaii, Patrick is a United States (US) Army officer and a Military Historian. He is currently teaching at the Command and General Staff College at Fort Leavenworth, KS. He received the Army's General Douglas MacArthur Leadership Award in 2012. He has had unique opportunities to serve as an Interagency Fellow with the Department of Labor, a Legislative Liaison to the US Senate, and a Congressional Partnership Program Fellow with the Partnership for a Secure America - all in Washington, D.C. He also served as a Senior Leadership Fellow with the Center for Junior Officers at West Point. He holds a Master of Military Arts and Science degree in History from the US Army Command and General Staff College, where he was an Art of War Scholar. He also holds a Master of Science in Crisis and Emergency Management and a Bachelor of Arts degree in History both from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas where he was an Army ROTC Distinguished Military Graduate. He has published in several venues, but his first book “Born From War: A Soldier's Quest to Understand Vietnam, Iraq, and the Generational Impact of Conflict” was released in April 2025. The views expressed in those publications and this website are his own and not of the Department of the Army, the Department of Defense, or any agency of the US Government. He is forever thankful for the support of his lovely wife, Sheila and their beautiful son, Tommy. In my book review, I stated Born from War is an incredible memoir that looks at the author's time in Iraq compared to his father's time in Vietnam. Despite the decades between the wars and the many differing circumstances, Patrick found astounding similarities. These similarities helped him to understand his father and 'his father's war' in ways he never thought possible. I found it very interesting that without identifiers giving me the what or when, many of the author's recollections could have been swapped with his father's. It makes me wonder if the same would be true for those who fought in WWII or Korea or any modern conflict - and if so, what do we need to learn as a people about war and what it does to soldiers and to civilians living with the consequences. Despite 'lessons learned' from Vietnam, it appears some things do not change. Can they? Should they? And how do we get those in charge to understand what is actually happening on the front lines? I enjoyed this book and feel like I know a bit more about Vietnam, Iraq, and the soldiers who are willing to fight for their country - even when the goals are nebulous.

This episode is presented by Create A Video – Mecklenburg County government officials are complaining about the increased costs of complying with "Iryna's Law" and the burdens it will put on the local courts, jail, and judicial staff. Yes, it will. But that's because the local Democrat machine has de-prioritized public safety for almost 20 years... and state lawmakers are saying "enough." Plus, US Senate candidate Don Brown joins me to discuss.

On this edition of Political Breakfast: Democrats are calling it "Brian's Blunder." That's referring to a campaign ad for Republicans to unseat Democratic U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff in 2026. In it, Georgia Governor Brian Kemp is supporting former University of Tennessee football coach, and political outsider, Derek Dooley. The ad blames Dooley's opponents who already have power in Washington for the longest government shutdown in U.S. history: Republican U.S. Representatives Buddy Carter and Mike Collins. Democratic strategist Tharon Johnson and Republican strategist Brian Robinson delve deeper with Lisa Rayam, into why state and national Republicans are criticizing Kemp.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Its theory of change may sound brand new, designed in response to this administration's increasingly authoritarian agenda but California Donor Table has led with a power building model of philanthropy for over two decades. It starts with donors who are committed to using their resources to generate a more just California and nation by investing in progressive communities of color. Their funding produces the infrastructure that communities need to elect candidates who reflect their needs and values. That infrastructure also supports good governance and holds elected officials accountable. In this episode of Power Station, Ludovic Blain, the incomparable CEO of California Donor Table, breaks down how to not only build power but to wield power by funding progressive eco-systems across geographic boundaries and tax statuses. Ludovic reflects on the promise of a new generation of candidates running for offices from boards of supervisors to Mayors and the US Senate and how to prepare for inevitable voter suppression in the mid-terms. Ludovic reminds us that crafting the policies and building the society we want to see requires that we enable progressive leadership to take hold in all levels of government. Listen, be energized and share this episode.

Compromise said to involve fully funding Departments of Agriculture and Veterans Affairs for a year while partially funding other agencies through 30-Jan. Agreement guarantees laid-off federal employees will be re-hired and given backpay. Any deal would also unblock release of delayed economic data, providing colour on December rate cut prospects. White House also warned of a potentially negative Q4 GDP print from shutdown that extended past Thanksgiving. Companies Mentioned: Accor, Metsera, Pfizer, Novo Nordisk
