A fun, amateur podcast about the hit real-time strategy game StarCraft 2 and its strategies known as “cheeses”, especially directed at new players. Cheese strategies are controversial: they’re unconventional and risky, but can be devastating and infuriating for its victims. Even if you don’t want to use cheese strategies, you need to know what to do when they’re used on you. If you do, you’ll come to love cheese, and enjoy the game even more.

David L. Calhoun, born on April 18, 1957, is an American businessman and the current President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of The Boeing Company, one of the world's largest aerospace manufacturers and defense contractors. With a career spanning over four decades, Calhoun has made significant contributions to various industries, including aviation, transportation, and private equity.
Early Life and Education Calhoun was born and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He grew up in a middle-class family, where his father worked as a sales representative for a local company, and his mother was a homemaker. From a young age, Calhoun demonstrated a strong work ethic and a keen interest in business and leadership.
He attended Parkside High School in Philadelphia, where he excelled academically and was actively involved in various extracurricular activities, including sports and student government. After graduating from high school in 1975, Calhoun enrolled at Virginia Tech, where he pursued a bachelor's degree in accounting.
During his time at Virginia Tech, Calhoun continued to display his leadership skills and was involved in several student organizations, including the Student Government Association and the Virginia Tech Union. He also worked part-time jobs to help finance his education, demonstrating his determination and resourcefulness.
Early Career Upon graduating from Virginia Tech in 1979, Calhoun began his professional career at General Electric (GE), joining the company's highly competitive Financial Management Program. This program provided him with a solid foundation in finance and business management, preparing him for future leadership roles.
Over the next 26 years, Calhoun held various positions at GE, steadily climbing the corporate ladder. He worked in several divisions, including GE Transportation, GE Aircraft Engines, and GE Lighting. During his tenure at GE, Calhoun gained a reputation as a talented and strategic leader, known for his ability to drive growth and improve operational efficiency.
One of his most notable accomplishments at GE was his role in the acquisition and integration of Employers Reinsurance Corporation in the late 1980s. As a young executive, Calhoun played a key role in the successful integration of the company, which helped GE expand its presence in the reinsurance industry.
In 2000, Calhoun was appointed as the President and CEO of GE Transportation, a division that manufactured locomotives and other transportation equipment. Under his leadership, GE Transportation experienced significant growth and improved profitability, solidifying its position as a global leader in the transportation industry.
Transition to Private Equity In 2006, after a successful career at GE, Calhoun made the decision to transition to the private equity industry. He joined Blackstone Group, one of the world's largest private equity firms, as a Senior Managing Director and Head of Portfolio Operations.
At Blackstone, Calhoun was responsible for overseeing the operations and growth strategies of the firm's portfolio companies. He worked closely with the management teams of these companies to identify opportunities for improvement and implement strategic initiatives to drive growth and profitability.
During his tenure at Blackstone, Calhoun served on the boards of several high-profile companies, including Nielsen Holdings and Hilton Worldwide. His experience in private equity further enhanced his reputation as a strategic thinker and effective leader, capable of driving results in complex and challenging business environments.
Return to Aviation In 2009, Calhoun returned to the aviation industry when he was appointed as the Chairman of the Board of Directors at Boeing, the world's largest aerospace company. At the time, Boeing was facing significant challenges, including delays in the development of its 787 Dreamliner aircraft and intense competition from its rival, Airbus.
As Chairman, Calhoun played a key role in guiding Boeing through these challenges and setting the company on a path to recovery. He worked closely with the management team to address the issues with the 787 Dreamliner and improve the company's operations and financial performance.
In addition to his role at Boeing, Calhoun also served on the boards of several other companies during this time, including Caterpillar Inc. and Gates Industrial Corporation. His diverse experience across multiple industries provided him with a unique perspective and a broad set of skills that he could apply to his leadership roles.
CEO of Boeing In January 2020, following the resignation of Boeing's previous CEO, Dennis Muilenburg, in the wake of the 737 MAX crisis, Calhoun was appointed as the company's new President and CEO. He took on this role during one of the most challenging periods in Boeing's history, as the company faced the grounding of its 737 MAX aircraft, production delays, and the global COVID-19 pandemic.
As CEO, Calhoun has focused on rebuilding trust in Boeing and restoring the company's reputation for safety and quality. He has implemented a series of measures to improve Boeing's safety culture, including the establishment of a new Safety Management System and the creation of a permanent Aerospace Safety Committee on the company's Board of Directors.
Calhoun has also been working to address the financial impact of the 737 MAX crisis and the pandemic on Boeing's business. He has implemented cost-cutting measures, including workforce reductions and the consolidation of production facilities, to help the company weather these challenges.
Under Calhoun's leadership, Boeing has made progress in returning the 737 MAX to service, with the aircraft receiving regulatory approval to resume flights in several countries, including the United States. The company has also continued to invest in new technologies and products, such as the 777X aircraft and the Starliner spacecraft, to position itself for future growth.

In interviews, Calhoun has emphasized the importance of transparency, accountability, and effective communication in leadership. He believes that leaders should be open and honest with their employees, customers, and stakeholders, and should take responsibility for their actions and decisions.
Philanthropy and Personal Life Outside of his professional life, Calhoun is involved in various philanthropic and community organizations.
