  • AI, Politics, and a Shot at the White House | Andrew Yang
    Mar 13 2026
    Andrew Yang joins me for a conversation about politics, AI, entrepreneurship, and why he believed he had to run for president. We talk about what pushed him from the private sector into national politics, what he learned from meeting former presidents, and why he came away convinced that the people leading the country are not superhuman. Andrew opens up about the reality of running a presidential campaign, from building a team and raising roughly $40 million to making seven debate stages and breaking through with independent media. We also get into the deeper issues driving his campaign: collapsing trust in government, the two-party trap, insider corruption, and the very real threat AI poses to millions of jobs. Andrew explains why he’s been sounding the alarm on automation for years and why he believes the country still has not caught up to what’s coming. From there, we shift into Noble Mobile and the simple idea behind it: most Americans are getting crushed on wireless bills and barely question it. Andrew breaks down how Noble works, why phone service has become an overpriced commodity, and how reducing costs and screen time can both improve people’s lives. This is a conversation about ambition, common sense, broken systems, and trying to build something better instead of just complaining about what’s broken.

  • The Other Side of Hard | Ken Rideout
    Mar 11 2026
    This week I sat down with my editor Mishka for a raw conversation about the release of my memoir, Everything You Want Is on the Other Side of Hard. I open up about the childhood abuse and chaos that shaped me, the years I lost to addiction, and the long road back through sobriety, endurance sports, and rebuilding my life. We talk about opioid addiction, withdrawals, Subutex dependence, and the moment Vivitrol finally helped me break the cycle. We also dive into the deeper parts of my story — the mentors who changed my life, the pressure of success in finance, marriage and fatherhood, adopting my daughter from Ethiopia, and Shelby’s battle with breast cancer. This episode isn’t a victory lap. It’s an honest look at trauma, fear, discipline, and the work it takes to keep moving forward. Because the truth is simple: Everything You Want is on the Other Side of Hard.

  • Cocaine, Cancel Culture, and 300 Miles in the Desert | Eli Wehbe
    Mar 6 2026
    In this bonus episode I sit down with Eli Wehbe for a raw conversation about status, addiction, reinvention, and the cost of living for validation. Eli talks about growing up inp Moreno Valley, breaking into Hollywood nightlife, going from door guy to partner at Warwick, and building relationships with celebrities at the height of LA club culture. He also opens up about the partying, the public fallout that blew up his life, and the decision to disappear from social media and rebuild from scratch. What started as a reset turned into a full obsession: marathons, trail racing, 100-milers, Moab 240, and now a real shot at podiuming Arizona Monster 300. Ken and Eli get into sleep deprivation, fueling, sponsorships, social media, and the mindset it takes to compete in races most people can’t even imagine finishing. This is a conversation about image versus reality, losing the identity you built, and finding something real on the other side of pain.
