In the second part of my conversation with U.S. Army veteran and entrepreneur Jeremy S. Bailey, we explore the role of artificial intelligence in the future of warfare. Jeremy shares tactical insights and raises powerful questions about autonomy, ethics, and the battlefield of tomorrow.

But that’s only half the story.

Jeremy also recounts two separate and unexplained incidents—moments that defy logic and challenge what we think we know about the world around us. With clarity and candor, he reflects on how these events shaped his view of reality.

In this episode of Dead Hand Radio, I sit down with Jeremy S. Bailey—U.S. Army veteran, former tank officer, and co-founder of Burgeon Brands.

We explore Jeremy’s path from military service to business ownership, his training in armored warfare at Fort Knox, and how lessons from the battlefield translated into leadership and strategy in the private sector. From ROTC and MBA programs to 15 years in corporate restructuring, Jeremy brings a disciplined mindset to everything he does—including building consumer brands in the competitive world of e-commerce.

This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation. In the next episode, we dive into AI-driven warfare and two mysterious, unexplained experiences that Jeremy has carried with him for years.
