The Rest Is History
656. The Ku Klux Klan: Birth of a Nation (Part 3)
How did the second incarnation of the clan, born in Georgia in 1915, grow into a seemingly indomitable nation-wide fraternal organisation, numbering millions? Who were its new targets? And, with the Klan’s momentum seemingly unstoppable and an election on the horizon, would their appalling violence be publicly condemned?
Join Tom and Dominic as they chart the second rise of the violent, tyrannical, Ku Klux Klan….

The Level Up Podcast w/ Paul Alex
Building Emotional Calluses
If one bad client, refund, or comment can ruin your day…
You’re not ready for scale yet.
In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down the importance of building emotional calluses—the ability to handle pressure, criticism, and client friction without losing focus or momentum.
As your business grows, so does the volume of problems. More clients means more feedback, more complaints, and more situations that test your patience and emotional control.
The key isn’t avoiding problems…
It’s learning how to handle them without letting them control you.
Paul explains how elite entrepreneurs detach emotion from outcomes, enforce strong boundaries, and operate from logic instead of reacting to every situation.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why friction with clients is normal and expected at scale
How taking things personally can hurt your performance and decision-making
Why enforcing boundaries protects your time, energy, and margins
How developing emotional resilience helps you stay consistent under pressure
You can’t control how people act…
But you can control how you respond.
Because when you build emotional strength and stay grounded, nothing in the market can shake your focus—and that’s what separates average entrepreneurs from elite operators.

The Level Up Podcast w/ Paul Alex
When a Client Is No Longer Worth the Money
Not all money is good money.
In this episode of The Level Up Podcast w/ Paul Alex, we break down one of the most important decisions every business owner eventually has to make: knowing when a client is no longer worth the money.
Because the wrong client does not just cost you time.
They cost you energy, margin, team morale, and peace of mind.
If a client constantly drains your team, disrespects your standards, destroys your margins, and creates chaos in your business, they are not an asset.
They are a liability.
Paul explains why toxic revenue can quietly hold your company back and why the fear of losing income keeps many entrepreneurs stuck serving clients they should have walked away from a long time ago.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why bad clients can quietly damage good businesses
How toxic revenue drains your time, energy, and team culture
Why the 80/20 rule applies to your stress, not just your profits
How firing the wrong clients creates room for better ones
Why protecting your standards is part of real leadership
Most founders tolerate chaos because they are afraid to lose the money.
But high-level operators understand that the wrong money blocks the right money.
When you remove the headache, you create space for better clients, better service, better margins, and better growth.
Protect your business.
Protect your culture.
Protect your standards.
And remember, sometimes the best growth move is walking away from the client who is no longer worth the money.

The a16z Show
AI Agents and the Fight for Customer Data
Martin Casado speaks with George Fraser, cofounder and CEO of Fivetran, about the future of data infrastructure in the age of AI.
The conversation covers Fivetran’s merger with dbt, the changing role of data platforms, and why Fraser believes many companies are overestimating the threat AI poses to enterprise software. They discuss open data access, the backlash against AI agents accessing systems of record, and why businesses still need centralized data foundations even as agent-based workflows become more common.
Along the way, Fraser shares his views on data gravity, coding agents, enterprise AI adoption, and how AI is changing the way software companies build and operate products.
