Protecting IP… negotiating licenses on behalf of IP clients… buying up IP’s. Having built one of the world’s largest intellectual property licensing companies, the pair know a lot about business. They also have a keen sense for politics – and how politics can impact business. Where other political shows are exclusively about politics, Pridham and Sheafe connect the dots between government policies, headline politics and growing your business. The two get political…They talk social issues. They jump headfirst into today’s headlines. It’s like listening in on what two businessmen/entrepreneurs have to say about everything going on around them. And like any A-types, David and Brad pull no punches. But they do throw in a lot of humor. So, when you want to practice the best practices as they relate to growing your business…when you want to know how intellectual properties can benefit your company…and when you just want a good laugh – tune in to Pridham and Sheafe – you’re guaranteed to learn and laugh - they're two funny!","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/pridham-and-sheafe-6228045"},"episode":{"title":"Ep. 316 - Sometimes Dead is Better","slug":"ep-316-sometimes-dead-is-better","published_at":"2026-01-13T01:28:43+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/pridham-and-sheafe-6228045/ep-316-sometimes-dead-is-better","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/pridham-and-sheafe-6228045","url":"https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-316-sometimes-dead-is-better--69412620","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/69412620/ep_316_sometimes_dead_is_better.mp3","summary":"Ep. 316 - Sometimes Dead is Better David and Brad survey the wreckage of New York City under Mayor Mamdani. His housing czar wants to dismantle white supremacy by seizing private property (conveniently excluding her mother's $1.4 million Nashville home.) The hosts dissect the performative self-loathing of white progressives who rail against everything they are while somehow exempting themselves from their own indictments. Meanwhile, we all witnessed a masterclass in American power, plucking Maduro from his Russian-defended Venezuelan fortress without losing a single man. Plus: Tim Walz slinks away from Minnesota amid daycare fraud scandals, USA Today manufactures hypothetical racism for clicks, and the disturbing rise of pet cloning. Because nothing says emotional health like dropping fifty grand to resurrect Fluffy.","meta_description":"Ep. 316 - Sometimes Dead is Better David and Brad survey the wreckage of New York City under Mayor Mamdani.
