Today, we’re sharing a special episode from season 2 of Think Big, Buy Small, the podcast from my colleagues at Harvard Business School. Think Big, Buy Small explores an innovative approach to entrepreneurship: acquisition entrepreneurship. Through engaging conversations, this season delves into how to buy your own business, become your own boss, and scale it to new heights. In this episode, HBS professors Richard Ruback and Royce Yudkoff sit down with Nick Vandam, a former Army officer and elite athlete who took an unconventional path to business ownership by pursuing entrepreneurship through acquisition. Nick shares what it’s really like to buy and run a small business, the tough lessons he learned, and why this path might be more accessible than you think.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
