Welcome to armchair expert.
Experts on experts.
I'm Dan Shepard, and I'm joined by Monica Padman.
Hello.
Hello.
We have a very unique topic we've never covered in the past.
It involves war in the military.
We have Raj m.
Shaw and Christopher Kirchhoff.
Raj is a serial technology entrepreneur, a venture capitalist, and a former director of the Pentagon's defense innovation unit.
And Christopher Kirchhoff is an expert in emerging technology, and he helped create the defense innovation unit, which he can continues to advise for.
So their book, which they have out now, is called Unit X.
How the Pentagon and Silicon Valley are transforming the future of war.
These two lay out an assessment of how insanely out of date most of our military stuff is.
Yeah, it's pretty crazy.
Yeah.
There's some shocking incidents where you're like, that can't be true.
There can't be a several hundred million dollars plane with the operating system 100 times slower than an iPhone.
And yet it is.
