The Trunk Tales Ep 8 | Ft Baker Leavitt
Episode 8 of The Trunk Tales features entrepreneur, strategist, and veteran advocate Baker “Black Baker” Leavitt.
Hosts Andrew Lemacks (He’s Wrong She’s Right) and Grimzy (Grimzy News) sit down with Baker to talk about his path from real estate to founding powerhouse brands like 2POOD, Kill Cliff, and his long-running role with Black Rifle Coffee Company as Director of Strategic Relations.
Baker opens up about losing everything during the 2008 crash, rebuilding from scratch, lessons learned working with major corporations, the truth behind the Black Rifle “ActBlue” controversy, and how leadership, likability, and messaging shape everything from politics to business success.
This episode dives deep into problem-solving at the executive level, strategic influence, and why common sense and calm voices still win in chaos.
