  • War Dogs Exposed: The True Story | David Packouz | The Jared Goetz Show

    David Packouz is the real-life entrepreneur whose story inspired the movie War Dogs. In this conversation, he reveals what actually happened behind the Hollywood version—from entering the government-contracting world in his early twenties and winning a nearly $300 million ammunition contract, to being investigated by the federal government and believing he could spend decades in prison.

    This episode is a deep conversation about ambition, betrayal, government contracts, legal consequences, entrepreneurship, and rebuilding your life after everything falls apart.

    David explains how he and his former business partner built AEY into a major weapons contractor, how the Afghanistan ammunition deal unraveled, what War Dogs changed about the real story, and how a dispute over just $20,000 ultimately helped expose the entire operation.

    He also opens up about being betrayed by his best friend, losing the millions he believed he had earned, pleading guilty, and facing the possibility of missing his daughter’s childhood. After receiving seven months of house arrest, David transformed one of the darkest periods of his life into the idea for BeatBuddy, a product that became a multimillion-dollar business.

    In this episode, we discuss:

    • David’s real-life experience behind the movie War Dogs
    • How he entered the arms and government-contracting business at 22
    • Winning a nearly $300 million contract to supply ammunition to Afghanistan
    • The truth about the Chinese ammunition scandal
    • Why his former business partner allegedly refused to pay him millions
    • How one unpaid box supplier helped expose the operation
    • Facing 71 fraud allegations and the possibility of decades in prison
    • How Hollywood discovered the story and created War Dogs
    • What the movie changed, exaggerated, and left out
    • Creating BeatBuddy while serving house arrest
    • Building Singular Sound, Instafloss, and Comment Compass
    • Why David returned to government contracting through War Dogs Academy
    • How entrepreneurs can find opportunities selling products and services to the government


    This episode will resonate with people interested in entrepreneurship, government contracting, business partnerships, high-stakes negotiations, true crime, invention, resilience, and the real stories behind major Hollywood movies.

  • Manifest Your Dream Life | Omar Elattar | The Jared Goetz Show

    Omar Elattar has interviewed some of the biggest names in business, media, and culture, but this conversation goes far deeper than podcasting, success, or viral moments. What starts as an unbelievable story about manifesting a meeting with Tony Robbins turns into a powerful conversation about intuition, energy, surrender, faith, fear, and what it really means to follow the signs in your life.What this episode is about:This is a conversation about what happens when you stop forcing outcomes and start listening to the pull. Omar opens up about the last-minute decision that led him to a Tony Robbins event, the impossible timing that brought him face-to-face with Tony at dinner, and the moment Tony personally invited him to do his podcast. Jared and Omar also go deep on manifestation, staying centered, intuition vs impulse, the dangers of ego, and why the biggest opportunities in life often come from following the breadcrumbs before they make logical sense.Key topics discussed:

  • West Palm Beach Development Explained: The Man Behind Nora District | Ned Grace | Jared Goetz Show

    Thirteen years ago, West Palm Beach was perceived a just place people retired or vacationed. Ned Grace saw what everyone else missed and quietly started building something that is now on track to become a multi-billion dollar project.

    This conversation is about what happens when you bet on a city before the rest of the world catches up.

    What this episode is about:

    This is a deep conversation with a developer who has watched West Palm Beach transform from a sleepy, seasonal town into one of the most exciting real estate and lifestyle markets in the country.

    Key topics discussed:

    - Why West Palm Beach went from a vacation town to a magnet for successful people who decided to stay

    - The NORA project: how a 60,000 square foot warehouse purchase turned into a potential multi-billion dollar development

    - The pivot from property management to curated, high-design real estate development

    - What "highly curated" and "super high design" actually means in practice and why that was the missing ingredient
