Goat Rodeo #4 - War Plan Signal Leaks, Border Market, and Too Many Damn Exercises

This Episode: Garrett, Simon, and Dave dive into a whirlwind of leaked war plans, JD Vance’s rise as a meme-worthy main character, and why no one wants to work the southern border. They unpack what Signal leaks mean for national security, whether the innovation economy should treat DHS as a growth market, and how DoD’s slow roll on border support is reshaping interagency dynamics. Plus: DIU goes international, ITAR headaches, and why the GWOT retiree crowd isn’t signing up for Border Patrol. Our podcast: National security, defense tech, and geopolitics—serious topics, but that doesn’t mean we have to be boring about it. The Goat Rodeo Podcast brings you three military veterans turned defense insiders, breaking down the biggest stories shaping the future of warfare. Expect sharp insights, unfiltered debates, and the occasional defense industry hot take—because let’s be honest, this space can be a total goat rodeo.
