Welcome to the Inside Track. My Name is Michael Wildes, Founder and CEO of Drive Phase Holding Co. I’m producing The Inside Track because I’m fascinated by how the world around us is shifting: how people work, live, and build the future. It's also the flagship show for Drive Phase. Drive Phase is a permanent‑capital firm dedicated to building the next generation of enduring companies across five core sectors—Business, Aviation, Media, and Philanthropy. Rather than buying and flipping assets, we launch ventures in‑house, scale them with a shared operating system, and hold them indefinitely. Strategic venture investments and precision bolt‑ons give each platform an extra surge when it counts, but the compounding value comes from the continuous momentum we create and maintain. As for the show, we’re living in arguably the most exciting time in history. As Charles Dickens said, this is the best of times. It might be the worst, too—but I’m focused squarely on the upside. It feels like we’re living through multiple industrial revolutions at once—technology, energy, space travel, media, entertainment, policy—you name it. I launched Drive Phase to sit at the convergence of these trends, and I want to share what I’m seeing, hearing, and thinking—the headlines, the stories, the signals—the inside track on how we really work, live, and build what’s next. For us, the most interesting things happen where industries collide because life doesn’t happen in silos, and neither will the future. Dickens also said, “It was the age of wisdom, and it was the age of foolishness.” It’s easy to get it wrong. Amid all the signals, there is plenty of noise. We want to help you cut through that.
