Show notes

Vivek Ramaswamy, a 2024 Republican Presidential Candidate, joins us this week for a frank discussion on China, Taiwan, Ukraine, the Dept. of Education, and much more. He's honest, intelligent, charming, and knows the issues inside and out, despite being an actual outsider to the political process.

Vivek is an American business leader and New York Times bestselling author of Woke, Inc.: Inside Corporate America’s Social Justice Scam, along with his second book, Nation of Victims: Identity Politics, the Death of Merit, and the Path Back to Excellence.

Left leaning media has called him the "intellectual godfathers of the anti-woke movement" (Politico) and the “right’s leading anti-ESG crusader” (Axios and Bloomberg). He was dubbed "The C.E.O. of Anti-Woke," by the New Yorker and has been described by the Federalist Society as "one of the most compelling conservative voices in the country." These movements are now popularized in mainstream conservative thought.

He went on to graduate summa cum laude in Biology from Harvard and received his J.D. from Yale Law School, while working at a hedge fund, then started a biotech company, Roivant Sciences, where he oversaw the development of five drugs that went on to become FDA-approved.

In 2022, he founded Strive, an Ohio-based asset management firm that directly competes with asset managers like BlackRock, State Street, Vanguard and others, use the money of everyday citizens to advance environmental and social agendas that many citizens and

Show notes

Dr. Komal S. Sri-Kumar, President of Sri-Kumar Global Strategies, Inc., a macroeconomic consulting firm, joins Jim and Bobby this week. We don't have Sri on the show because he is a Senior Fellow at the Milken Institute or because he is a member of the Economic Club of New York. We don't even care much about Sri holding an M.A. in Economics from the Delhi School of Economics and an M.Phil and Ph.D. degrees from Columbia University or that his doctoral dissertation at Columbia University was supervised by Robert Mundell, Nobel Laureate in Economics (1999). We have him on because he is right so damned often.
