In this hard-hitting episode, entrepreneur and strategist André Stamm interviews David M. Walker, former Comptroller General of the United States and head of the U.S. Government Accountability Office under three Presidents.

As the architect of U.S. fiscal oversight and a global thought leader on economic policy, Walker delivers an unfiltered assessment of what Germany must do to reclaim competitiveness, stimulate innovation, and empower its entrepreneurial class.

From minimizing regulatory drag to embracing strategic AI investment, this conversation is a blueprint for nations and leaders navigating global economic disruption.

• Why the U.S. economy commands over 25% of global GDP — and what Germany is missing.

• The deadweight of regulation and taxation on innovation and how to reverse it.

• The role of constitutional financial limits — and why Germany leads here where America lags.

• How trade schools can unlock real growth in a digital age.

• The double-edged sword of artificial intelligence and its impact on skilled vs. unskilled labor.

• Why ”one size fits all” doesn't work — in education, policy, or entrepreneurship.

• How uncertainty, when leveraged correctly, becomes a launchpad for transformation.

This isn’t theory. This is strategic economic warfare, and the future belongs to those who act, not react.

Whether you're a founder, policymaker, or investor, this episode will challenge your thinking and elevate your strategic lens.
