This is going to be the last episode of The Black Box Podcast, more of a goodbye than a full episode.

The podcast has achieved what it was set out to do. Provide content to anyone, but especially the younger audience via stories and experiences from successful investors, business owners, entrepreneurs as well as providing updates on tech, web3 at times.

Need to clear some bandwidth for upcoming plans, and if the new experiences provide value we will return to share them!

Thanks for all the support over the past 2+ years, we will be leaving all the content as is on social media and podcast platforms, YT, etc. feel free to share it for others to use and learn.

Goodbye For Now...

Today on Black Box, we are talking with a previous guest, Juan Tomayo, JD.

Last time we spoke about his journey to becoming a lawyer and being in the profession. Now we’re bringing him on to help us discuss the legal aspects of the recent Tik Tok Congress Hearing we’ve all been seeing online.

I try to approach from a Technical standpoint, explaining how some of the discussed technologies really work, and Juan helps from legal.

TikTok Visits Congress

Today on Black Box, we sit down with our boy Alberto Monges, an Accountant/Business Analyst.

We do cover a bit about the job and work in general but it’s more in regards to adjustment. We talk about the struggles some can go through when adjusting to the adult world, especially during the period where WFH was forced because of COVID restrictions. To compliment this, we also cover work-life balance and how that can help the adjustment to working full time.

It wouldn’t be Black Box if we didn’t discuss investing a little bit as well… 😂

Adapting to Adulthood During Covid - In Review

Today on Black Box, we sit down with Ryan Brady, 2x TEDx speaker who brings a surprising amount of experience to the table for his age. 

Ryan is Head of Sales @digitalprodigee but his story starts long before that when he was still in high school. A car accident that left him in a coma due to a TBI caused him to look at life differently. 

We discuss his role at Digital Prodigee, his experience recovering from the accident, his time spent studying and living abroad and how he was able to land TEDx TWICE!

2x TEDx?

Today on Black Box, we sit down with a previous Black Box guest from way back, and a great friend, Luca Abatemarco. Don’t worry Luca is on to talk about something entirely different this time!

Luca has changed his career path pretty drastically over the past year or so, going from process engineering at a chip manufacturer to playback engineering in audio/visual productions.

We cover the career change and new job responsibilities but also cover the decision making process Luca went through in order to take this risk and pursue his dreams.

Spacebar Presser

Today on Black Box, we sit down with Robert Kerbeck, author of Ruse: Lying the American Dream from Hollywood to Wall Street, which is a detailed memoir about his experience as a corporate spy.

Robert started his career as an actor, initially doing stage performances on Broadway, but then moving out to Los Angeles where he later went on to appear in many shows that we all grew up watching… examples being Melrose Place and NYPD Blue. 

As Robert goes on to explain, acting can be a difficult field when you don’t have consistent work, which led to him being recruited by some firms to engage in corporate spying. 

Spying started as his side gig for money while he searched for acting jobs, but after some success and his name got around to different corporations, the offers were too good to refuse and he went full time into spying.
