About All Quiet on the Second Front
If Between Two Ferns and C-SPAN had a child, it would be All Quiet on the Second Front. Blending the very best (and the worst) of government gravitas with technical expertise, Second Front’s Chief Executive Officer, Tyler Sweatt, cuts through the noise and the bureaucratic BS surrounding all things defense tech, national security, and government markets. Be warned: this is not your typical military or government podcast. As host, Tyler has an uncanny ability to get people to talk honestly, making candid conversations that are equally informative and entertaining. All Quiet on the Second Front is the much-needed integrator connecting listeners to experts across fields in an approachable format that offers a fun experience with real conversations, driving real change in the defense tech industry and U.S. national security.

What we have is we have really cool speakers come with a somewhat outcome based approach, whether it's acquisitions, whether it's scaling with a program office, you name it. But after that, we do stand ups with three or four startups. So we'll say, hey, this is what I'm working on. This is my blocker. how can you help we fill the room and curate the room with individuals that have knowledge in that space so for example if we have a maritime startup yeah we'll bring the navy or newick or all these organizations and it's like all right serendipitously like you should be talking to this person and it creates this kind of like that's awestruck or of like this is meant to be kind of a thing yeah this founder ecosystem where people get very excited to be in the room So it's kind of in order of scarcity, et cetera.
