Tommy Cotter from Benzinga joins the show to break down how stock market news actually works, and why their API business is quietly powering dashboards built by hobbyists at 2am and banks with millions of users alike. We get into the rise of prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi, how people are running arbitrage bots across them, and why 84 terabytes of historical news data is gold for training trading models. If you have ever wondered how financial media really makes money or thought about vibe coding your own trading tool, this one is worth your time.

Most food brands do not die because the product is bad. They die because they scaled too fast, took on too much risk, or jumped into retail before they were ready. In this episode, Armando talks with Omar Attia, founder and CEO of Zero Carb Life, the company behind the highest protein pizza on the market and a line of high protein chips now in 556 Target stores.

Omar spent years at Kraft Foods, Procter & Gamble, and ConAgra before leaving corporate to build his own company. He shares exactly how he did it, what he would tell a first time founder today, and why patenting a process matters more than patenting an idea.

AI models keep getting more powerful, but are we actually more secure, or just more confident? And what happens when the same tools defenders use become available to every attacker on the planet?

In this episode, Armando sits down with Eran Medan, CTO of Arnica, to talk about what the Mythos release really means for cybersecurity, why supply chain attacks are still dangerously easy to pull off, and what vibe coders can do right now to protect themselves.

In this conversation, you will learn:

• Why the Mythos benchmarks deserve healthy skepticism and how models can game their own evaluations
• How the Axios supply chain attack worked and why transitive dependencies keep developers exposed
• Two simple NPM/PNPM config changes that block 99% of supply chain attacks
• Why MCPs are often unnecessary overhead when you already have a CLI and a well-documented API
• How AI is democratizing both attacking and defending, and why cybersecurity companies will be needed more than ever
• Why the current moment is a rare window for non-engineers to build real businesses before the playing field levels out
• The practical security checklist for anyone shipping vibe-coded apps to production
