For our 100th episode—and our first ever live recording—former Acting Secretary of Defense Chris Miller flips the script and interviews host Tyler Sweatt.

What follows is equal parts roast, reflection, and rallying cry. Tyler opens up about choosing West Point, serving after 9/11, life as a combat engineer in Afghanistan, and the winding path that led him to build and lead Second Front Systems. Chris pushes him on leadership, culture, organizational debt, and what it feels like to become “the guy you used to make fun of.”

Together they get candid about:

• The origins (and authenticity) of All Quiet
• Military lessons that don’t translate to business
• Why organizational debt is the hardest part of being CEO
• Why Tyler believes DoD innovation spending is broken—and what needs to change now

It’s unfiltered, funny, and bluntly honest—the perfect way to mark 100 episodes of mission-obsessed conversation.
