In this must-watch Dropping Bombs episode, Ancestry.com co-founder Paul Allen teams with sales psychology expert Jeremy Miner to reveal how AI is rewriting sales forever. Jeremy—founder of 7th Level, the world's largest B2C sales training company and ranked #1 sales trainer globally—joins forces with Paul who now runs 15 AI companies through Soar.com. Together they launched AskJeremy.ai, and it just saved a $6 million deal in two minutes.
Paul and Jeremy break down how AI rescued a wire transfer going dark, the exact tools letting salespeople close deals they'd normally lose, and why most AI hallucinates garbage answers instead of truth. Plus, Paul exposes why founders lose control, the conspiracy theories that are actually true, and how open-source AI will transform communication and business forever.
If you're an entrepreneur, salesperson, or just love real talk about building (and losing) empires — this episode will blow your mind.

We've already seen a $6 million sales saved because of Askjeremy.AI. You are what your commission check says you are. I think within five years, you don't actually have to be there. It's like some hologram of you that, but like you look like you're right there and they can't tell the difference. |
| 0:23.2 | I see Jeremy looking into your eyes like he's falling in. It's like, what's going on here? It's Tallahagena nights. Shigabakey. He's actually giving out all these good ideas, man. Somebody's going to hear your show and just like go trademark that. I'm an abundant guy. Take it. Run with it. I'll never do anything with it. |
| 0:38.6 | You want to know another one? I'm an abundant guy. Take it. Run with it. I'll never do anything |
| 0:38.1 | with it. 25 billion. You want to know another one? I'm telling you. And this one's getting |
| 0:41.7 | closer. What it is, Brad Lee back again with another episode of dropping bombs today in the studio. |
| 0:49.8 | Folks, I got a real treat for you as always, but this time it's two. Number one, Paul Allen and |
| 0:57.0 | Mr. Jeremy Miner. Brad, good to see you again. Now, you guys know Jeremy Miner, I'm sure, |

| 1:48.5 | I was very unhappy when the chairman of the board in 2006 said, a private equity fund is |
| 1:54.0 | buying the company. And I said, can I hold onto my shares through the IPO? Because that's |
| 1:57.8 | the dream of every startup founder, especially during the dot-com era. |
| 2:01.5 | And he said, nope, you have to sell 100%. Everyone's selling. And so, yes, I've not been very |
