Mailander Podcast
The Mailander Podcast is a film room for high-stakes decisions.
In each episode, strategist and author Chris Mailander sits down with leaders who have been tested under real pressure to replay 2–3 pivotal choices that changed the trajectory of a company, career, or market.
The show is built around decision intelligence—the discipline of designing the processes, frameworks, and systems that make consequential choices better over time. Guests are typically CEOs of private mid-market companies (roughly $50M–$5B+ in revenue) or founders of AI and technology platforms (roughly $5M–$50M ARR) who have already navigated major inflection points: exits, strategic investments, AI transformations, turnarounds, or elite program builds.
Instead of surface-level origin stories, conversations slow the game down. Chris and his guests break down what they saw, what they missed, the trade-offs they wrestled with, and how those decisions shaped enterprise value, culture, and competitive advantage.
If you’re a performance-driven leader—CEO, investor, operator, or emerging founder—and you treat judgment as a craft, this is your room. Episodes are produced in long-form video and audio and released across Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Audible, YouTube, and major social channels, with selected clips cut for precision delivery to the audiences that matter most.

Eliot Puplett | Fintech Founder on Entrepreneur’s Journey | Mailander Podcast

Tech entrepreneur Eliot Puplett shares his vision for democratizing global finance through blockchain technology. As founder of Medici, he's building a decentralized financial system that could do for money what the internet did for information. Puplett discusses the challenges of disrupting entrenched financial institutions, navigating regulatory hurdles, and building new infrastructure from scratch. He explains how blockchain can dramatically reduce costs and complexity in international investments by eliminating middlemen and creating transparent, immutable transactions. Beyond the technology, Puplett reveals his deeper mission: enabling thousands of people who've been excluded from traditional finance to build wealth, start companies, and access capital markets. It's a raw, candid conversation about fighting the status quo while trying to become part of it – and the messy reality of building a financial revolution from the ground up.
