"Every great institution is the length and shadow of a single man. His character determines the character of his organization." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
Advisor, mentor, host of the "Openly Outspoken" podcast, and founder of Unicorn Investments and Unicorn Traffic Jeremy Adams is back on the show to pay tribute to conservative activist and co-founder of Turning Point USA, Charlie Kirk, who lost his life at a speaking engagement in Utah on September 10, 2025. Over the course of these tribute episodes, we have had a myriad of different perspectives and outlooks on Charlie Kirk's influence and legacy, but Jeremy may have the most unique as Jeremy actually met and interacted with the man himself. Jeremy and Jay are discussing Jeremy's personal interaction with Charlie Kirk, Charlie's demeanor during debates and discussions compared to his portrayal in the media, understanding that Charlie wasn't a perfect person but was making every attempt to discuss his points with people who opposed his way of thinking, and what makes the sadness and anger on both sides of the fence so intense. We hope you enjoy this conversation about and tribute to Charlie Kirk with Jeremy Adams.
