  • Happy hour with your defense-industrial friends

    I'm new to the Acquisition space and I learn best by listening to people describe and explain, so it's great that I can turn to this podcast instead of relying on my network to explain these things to me. Above all, thank you for spelling out the acronyms as you go, it's the best spent few seconds of every conversation in this space and so few experts are self-aware enough to do it.
