Episode 61: Miles Spencer

🎙️ Episode 61: Miles Spencer — From Kayaks 🛶 to Capital 💰, a Life of Curiosity 🤔 and Courage 💥

In this episode of Tuxes & Tomahawks, we sit down with the endlessly fascinating Miles Spencer — a man who proves that curiosity isn’t just a trait, it’s a compass 🧭.

Miles is a digital media entrepreneur 📱, angel investor 👼, and explorer 🌍 who co-created the trailblazing PBS show MoneyHunt — a pre-Shark Tank 🦈 staple that schooled entrepreneurs across America before reality TV got the memo. He’s helped launch and grow companies that created over 1,100 jobs 👷‍♀️👨‍💻, advised founders for three decades ⏳, and raised two kids 👧🏉👦 who are learning that their dad is equal parts adventurer and sage.

But this conversation goes way beyond the boardroom 🧳.
From leading 1,500 people across open sea by kayak 🌊, to trekking 1,100 miles through Middle Eastern deserts 🐪, to writing the Amazon bestseller A Line in the Sand 📖🔥, Miles lives the kind of life that reads like an epic… and paints like one too 🎨.

We talk mentorship 💬, startups 🚀, raising kids 🏡, life after the pandemic 😷➡️🌅, and why playing rugby with your son 🏉 or painting with your daughter 👩‍🎨 might be just as important as building your next company 💡.

This is a story about how far questions can take you — if you’re willing to stray from home 🏞️, put in the miles 🥾, and never stop asking ❓.
