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. 323 - A Troika of Geniuses","slug":"ep-323-a-troika-of-geniuses","published_at":"2026-03-11T16:28:57+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/pridham-and-sheafe-6228045/ep-323-a-troika-of-geniuses","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/pridham-and-sheafe-6228045","url":"https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-323-a-troika-of-geniuses--70594559","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/70594559/ep_323_a_troika_of_geniuses.mp3","summary":"Ep. 323 - A Troika of Geniuses This week, three of Congress's sharpest legal minds requested a deposition with Hillary Clinton, took a victory selfie beforehand, and proceeded to get absolutely folded in half by a 77-year-old woman before the first hour was up. A masterclass in prosecutorial precision, just not theirs. Kristi Noem, widely regarded as one of the great strategic communicators of her generation, spent $220 million explaining to America how great she was, and was rewarded accordingly. Her successor is a former MMA fighter who once attempted to resolve a Senate hearing in the parking lot. The transition of power is going smoothly. Elsewhere, the United States and Israel are conducting a perfectly normal military operation in Iran, the Arab coalition that was supposed to hate this idea is on board, and Trump is simply working through a to-do list that happens to include regime change in three countries. David also attempted to prove his humanity to a children's video game and was denied. Thrice. The monkey was not a bird. Better luck next time.","meta_description":"Ep. 323 - A Troika of Geniuses This week, three of Congress's sharpest legal minds requested a deposition with Hillary Clinton, took a victory selfie befo…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":2709,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/pridham-and-sheafe-6228045/episodes/ep-323-a-troika-of-geniuses/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/pridham-and-sheafe-6228045/ep-323-a-troika-of-geniuses.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
