Episode 391 - Chris Hamilton Jun 16, 2025

Show notes

Chris Hamilton is a finance expert with 15 years of experience, on a mission to expose how the healthcare system is stealing from the middle class. Chris uncovered a harsh reality: insurance brokers and companies have zero incentive to lower your costs. Brokers even make commissions on rising premiums, sometimes earning bonuses for keeping prices high.

The Affordable Care Act, rather than boosting competition, turned healthcare into big business. What was once a market of 12-13 insurance companies has now consolidated to just 4 major players, dominating the industry. With fewer choices and rising costs, the average family is paying $24k in premiums annually, plus another $5-6k out of pocket—all while the healthcare giants profit.

That money, which should be building the American dream—going toward college savings, a home, or retirement—is being swallowed by a broken healthcare system. For the middle class, these rising costs are an invisible thief, robbing families of financial security.

Episode 390 - Jim Prabhu Jun 09, 2025

Show notes

Jim is a Fire Captain for the LA City Fire Department and has been a firefighter for 25 years.

During the Palisades Fire, Captain Prabhu played a crucial role in the initial response, working 36 hours straight before receiving any rest. He remained on-site with his crew for three consecutive days, navigating what he described as one of the most intense fires he has ever faced.

In 2018, inspired by the devastating Woolsey Fire, Captain Prabhu founded a business focused on helping homeowners protect their properties from wildfires. Specializing in installing swimming pool fire pumps, his company serves homes across Southern California, including Orange, LA, and Ventura counties. His work has been featured by news outlets such as Fox LA, and he continues to advocate for proactive fire prevention.

Episode 389 - Anthony Rivera Jun 02, 2025

Show notes

Anthony Rivera is the CEO and Founder of Vetavize Inc., a highly decorated former Navy SEAL renowned for his exceptional ability to tackle complex challenges. With over 11 years of service, including multiple combat deployments, he earned the prestigious designation of Master Training Specialist, establishing him as an expert in Navy medicine and healthcare curriculum. Recognized as the 2016 "Sailor of the Year" by the Chief of Naval Operations office, Anthony's leadership and impact set him apart among over 400 SEAL candidates at the Naval Special Warfare Training Command.

Motivated by his personal experience, Anthony established a consultancy to assist veterans in obtaining the disability ratings they deserved, personally aiding over 7,000 veterans. In 2024, he assembled a specialized team of experts in product design, AI, and data science to build what would become the Vetavize platform. In January 2025, the company launched its first automated solution—featuring a virtual advisor that streamlines the VA claims process, supported by a U.S. patent filing for its proprietary use of automation. The platform is now scaling to onboard thousands of veterans, aligning their critical needs with mission-focused sponsors and veteran organizations across the country. His long-term vision positions Vetavize as the gold standard for post-military life, connecting veterans to the benefits, resources, and support they've earned.
