This is Episode 3. Today, I’m joined by Michael Rodriguez from the Class of 1995, a distinguished CEO and director in early-stage companies with a focus on healthcare innovation, who now also teaches managerial accounting and business ethics at Baylor University’s Hankamer School of Business and Kailash Sundaram from the Class of 2025, a former member of the White House Biden Administration, venture capitalist, and advocate for sustainable capitalism with AI-driven solutions.

Michael and Kailash share their unique perspectives from the healthcare and venture capital sectors. Reflecting on their experiences, they delve into the evolving landscape of business education, the impact of AI on creativity, and the critical need for mentorship and patient care. Their conversation highlights the importance of adaptability, aligning profit with purpose, and embracing failure as a path to success, all while underscoring the lifelong value of personal connections formed during their time at Stanford.

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness.
