At Woodworth, we like value because it usually survives the sort of adversity that exposes everything else. This month’s Memo is about exactly that: puncturing market delusions when hype gets stupid, defending the radical act of owning boring cash-flow businesses like Kraft Heinz, and looking back to June 1775, when America tried to finance a revolution with paper promises, confidence, and the fiscal discipline of a tavern dare. From SpaceX mania to Continentals that became “not worth a Continental,” the lesson is the same: a good story can move money for a while, but reality eventually sends the invoice.

From boot camp to Botox denials, Army Doctor Nicholas Woo joins the Millegan brothers to talk about military healthcare, financial literacy for new recruits (hint: don’t buy the Mustang), and how TRICARE might accidentally be the best health plan in America. We also dive into Boeing’s slow-motion implosion, crypto’s awkward adolescence as it tries to reinvent banking, and why the UnitedHealthcare CEO may or may not have been allegedly shot (you decide). Plus: Vegas, the nickel, the NFL cartel, and Canada’s politest insurrection. Stay for the history lesson, leave wondering if we’ve learned anything at all.

This week on Capital Call: with The Millegan Brothers, we cover light topics like international trade breakdowns, militarized drone swarms, 110-hour workweeks that literally kill, and Warren Buffett casually handing off the keys to a $1 trillion empire. Also: Netflix finds a way to make more money when you're broke, Disney opens a theme park somewhere dry and oil-rich, and Portland might get a baseball team if Salt Lake forgets to show up.
