David Rutherford Show: The Flying Car Is Real — And It Changes Everything | Michael Thompson

Venture investor Michael Thompson sits down with Navy SEAL and intelligence veteran David Rutherford for a forward-looking briefing on the technologies that will define the next decade: electric flying aircraft, small nuclear reactors, autonomous trucking, and the AI build-out underneath all of it. Thompson — an early backer of Joby Aviation and Oklo — breaks down why "the AI trap" is going to hit middle-management and administrative jobs first, why energy is the real linchpin of American power, and why he believes we're living through a once-in-a-century industrial leap he calls the "1870 thesis." David pulls it back to the only question that matters: what does this mean for your family, your work, and the country's edge over China? ✅ Sponsor: ☕️ Black Rifle Coffee, use code froglogic20 for discount: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ [https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/] 🏫 Get coaching by David Rutherford: https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/ [https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/] Timestamps: 00:00 — The flying car is finally real 04:00 — Why a helicopter has 48 points of failure 13:00 — "If the physics work, it's just engineering" 27:00 — Where is all the power going to come from? 30:00 — 133 reactors built, then only 2: how America quit 44:00 — "The AI trap" and the coming white-collar job wipeout 50:00 — Why we can't afford to lose the skies to China See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

David Rutherford Show: "You Have 40% More" - The Blueprint For Maximum Performance

Most people never touch the top of what they're capable of — and it has nothing to do with talent. Navy SEAL David Rutherford breaks down the framework he's spent 30 years building: the four max states every human operates in — physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual — and the one variable that governs all of them. You'll learn how he evaluates elite athletes in real time, why your fundamentals collapse under stress before anything else does, and why he believes there's a readily accessible 40% more in nearly everyone. Then he lands the kicker: every bit of it is divided by how you perceive pain. David Rutherford is a former Navy SEAL, SEAL/CIA instructor, and championship performance coach who's worked with D1 programs and pro athletes, including a 2018 World Series team. ✅ Sponsor: ☕️ Black Rifle Coffee, use code froglogic20 for discount: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ [https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/] 🏫 Get coaching by David Rutherford: https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/ [https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/] See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

David Rutherford Show: The Return of Man: A Navy SEAL on What Masculinity Actually Means

Jimmy Graham and David Rutherford went through Hell Week together in Class 208. Their paths split into different SEAL teams, different deployments, different wars — and converged again through the CIA's Global Response Staff. Today, Jimmy breaks down what actually happened inside Blackwater before the Fallujah ambush, what the Benghazi movie got wrong, why he punched a teammate on a memorial motorcycle ride, and how losing his closest brother led him to build Able Shepherd — one of the most respected tactical protection training programs in the country. Jimmy Graham is a veteran U.S. Navy SEAL (15+ years, Chief Petty Officer), former CIA GRS protective officer, and founder/CEO of Able Shepherd Emergency Readiness Training in Denver, Colorado. He is also the author of "The Return of Man" and founder of Abel Nation, a 501(c)(3) dedicated to protecting churches, schools, and communities. ✅ Sponsor: ☕️ Black Rifle Coffee, use code froglogic20 for discount: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ [https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/] 🏫 Get coaching by David Rutherford: https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/ [https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/] See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

David Rutherford Show: A Navy SEAL's Memorial Day Message - Remembering The Sacrifice

On this Memorial Day, former Navy SEAL and CIA officer David Rutherford does what his family does every year: he reads the names. Then he walks through the full cost of American warfare — from the 25,000 dead in the Revolutionary War to the 150,000 veterans who have taken their own lives since 9/11 — and makes the case that sacrifice is the single idea that holds civilization together. This isn't a generic tribute. This is a man who has been part of what he calls "the culture of death" since he was 23 years old, asking you to take 60 seconds and contemplate what it cost for you to have what you have. ✅ Sponsor: ☕️ Black Rifle Coffee, use code froglogic20 for discount: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ [https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/] 🏫 Get coaching by David Rutherford: https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/ [https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/] See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

David Rutherford Show: #1 Economist Warns - The Fed Turned 66% of Gen Z Socialist

68 cents of every dollar in your wallet were printed in the last 18 years. The other 32 cents took 200 years to create. That's what the Federal Reserve actually did to your money. Brian Wesbury is the Chief Economist at First Trust Advisors, former Chief Economist for the Joint Economic Committee of the U.S. Congress, and ranked the #1 economic forecaster in America by The Wall Street Journal. He's been warning about this for decades. David and Brian break down how quantitative easing tripled the money supply, why that created the biggest generational wealth gap in American history (boomers won, Gen Z got crushed), how Jerome Powell's Fed enabled a government spending addiction at artificially cheap rates — and what the new Fed chair Kevin Warsh inherits now that the bill is coming due. They also dig into the Iran conflict's impact on oil and inflation, why two-thirds of Americans under 30 now believe socialism is a better system, and what Brian would tell every young person about building wealth in this economy. ✅ Sponsor: ☕️ Black Rifle Coffee, use code froglogic20 for discount: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ [https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/] 🏫 Get coaching by David Rutherford: https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/ [https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/] Follow Brian on X: https://x.com/wesbury [https://x.com/wesbury] Timestamps 00:00 — How the Fed Tripled the Money Supply in 18 Years 09:42 — Why Two-Thirds of Gen Z Now Believe in Socialism  12:19 — Jerome Powell Created This Mess 15:14 — Warsh vs. Powell: The Fed's Civil War 27:25 — The Fed Caused the Great Depression, the '70s, and Covid Inflation 31:41 — Iran, AI, Tariffs, and the Most Complicated Economy in History 33:55 — Building Wealth, College Is Overrated & The Soul of Americans 44:09 — Brian's Message to Every Young Person: Be Who You Are See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
