➡️ About The Guest

David Packouz went from being a struggling massage therapist to landing a $300 million Pentagon contract supplying weapons to the Afghan Army. Partnering with his former schoolmate Efraim Diveroli, their Miami-based company AEY Inc. rapidly transformed into a major military contractor – until their empire came crashing down amid allegations of fraud and illegal arms trafficking from Chinese and Eastern European sources.

After pleading guilty and serving house arrest, Packouz traded guns for guitars, reinventing himself in the music tech world. He founded Singular Sound and created the BeatBuddy, a revolutionary drum machine that helped wash away his reputation as an international arms dealer. His wild journey from weapons trafficking to musical innovation later inspired the 2016 Todd Phillips film 'War Dogs,' starring Miles Teller as Packouz."
