Hey, hey, hey it's Andrew Namanny -- welcome back!

GPS, the INTERNET, Siri, Night Vision, Autonomous Vehicles -- they all started in DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Project Agency). It's the powerful government agency you've never heard of.

Taryn Rose works for DARPA. She's a former orthopedic surgeon and successful founder of a $40M shoe company.

We talk about:

-Why DARPA was started to defend us against German attacks

-The genetic make up of successful entrepreneurs

-Appearing on Oprah and what it did for her business

-Taryn's first amputation

-What DARPA looks for in a partnership

-Developing synthetic blood to solve our blood crisis

Plus, we have a lot of fun and I know you will too while listening.
