My co-host @jennykaehms and I keep them coming. @FireflySpace - what a story! Thank you for sharing this journey with us. @americas_angels
Episode 8 is live: The Spirit Journey of a Space Cowboy 🚀
@jennykaehms and @akalmans sit down with Eric Salwan, who shut down his consulting business to help a friend build @FireflySpace from an empty grass field in Texas to a $6 billion IPO and NASA's first commercial Moon landing. He shares the spiritual practices that kept him going through bankruptcy, rocket failures, and a decade of near-death moments; why “nothing is over until I say it’s over”; and what's next.

Fred Wilson on the simplest way to bet on AI:
“If you really want just a simple way to bet on AI and not have to think about all this other stuff, just bet on energy.”

Looking forward to attending the @TomorrowXSummit in Austin, Nov 17-18!
As an Austin native and UT grad, nothing makes me happier than seeing Austin at the frontier of tech.
If you're working on AI infrastructure, power, or digital assets, let's talk 🤘

Pedigree is overrated. Grit isn't.
Bloomberg on who he'd hire: "the person whose father never was there, whose mother was in a drug treatment program. And he had to go and work three shifts at McDonald's to take care of his siblings."
"No matter how bad things are — looks on the bright side, takes the bull by the horns, puts in the sweat capital. That's where the results are."

“In effect, Musk is leaving the mainstream car market to the Chinese—who, he has suggested, are so formidable that many Western automakers are unable to compete without government intervention”

Former @DOGE engineer @bridgetyoungs is building America’s high-voltage transformers, the backbone of the grid. And, we can’t build fast enough. @americas_angels exists to inspire, and this one delivers. #Resiliency #Reindustrialization
Episode 6 is live: When Your Mom Is an Astronaut 🚀
@jennykaehms and @akalmans sit down with @bridgetyoungs, whose company, @TerminusIndstrl, is tackling one of the biggest risks to our power grid: the shortage of high-voltage transformers.
