In Politics, A Scalpel Finishes What A Hammer Starts
Baker Leavitt joins the podcast again for a raw, strategic conversation on power, politics, and precision. Baker is a seasoned entrepreneur and the Director of Strategic Relations at Black Rifle Coffee Company. Baker is also the founder of Digital Mongoose, a consulting firm, and has a rich history in the hunting and outdoor community. From branding that speaks to the veteran community to dissecting the dark tools of political influence, he understands how narratives are built and when they need to be cut open.
