Author, former UK diplomat and owner of Conflicts Forum Alastair Crooke returns to the podcast to discuss his recent articles on the religious and cultural imperatives surrounding Israel's response to the October 7th attack by Hamas. Crooke's analysis, I believe, is essential in picking up some of the nuances of the conflict while also highlighting why there no easy answers here.

Podcaster and commentator Pete Quinones joins me for a discussion about what's going on with libertarians and why in his opinion they've lost the plot. Stuck in a fugue of reflexivity of their own devising, much of the libertarian movement has willingly taken themselves off the gameboard of not only politics but the culture war itself.

There is a war on for your car which, in a broader sense, is the war on your freedom. The gun issue gets everyone in a lather, but it is the autonomy of the personal vehicle that defines the potential for the individual to find his true home in society.
Eric Peters has been banging this drum for more than a decade over at his blog Eric Peter Auto Blog bringing a deft touch of humor, hard-hitting analysis and a withering critique of not just the car industry itself but also the regulatory...

Host of the exellent podcast Palisades Gold Radio Tom Bodrovics joins me for an important discussion about the the difference between deciding on the path of your life versus allowing the path to define itself. Tom's story is one that I found both compelling and oddly similar to my own.
And I believe it makes for excellent radio as well as a peek behind the motivations of the people we allow into our lives.

Author and raconteur James Howard Kunstler joins me again for the first time in a while. I wanted to go 'off grid' after a bunch of technical, finance-focused episodes and pull back to the bigger picture. No one better than Jim for this as we both note just how silly the whole "EV Revolution" looks from a perspective that isn't high on the fumes coming from globalist backsides.

Chris Sullivan is back for an end of Q3 chat on the state of capital markets and our faltering society. Chris takes the view that we've already won, but just haven't realized it yet.

Vince Lanci returns to the podcast to connect some dots about the recent events in both the Chinese and US gold and silver markets. This discussion is about far more than just gold and silver, however, it tackles the nature of exchanges, flows, payment chains and why the Fed is working so hard to change the flow of the US dollar.

This is Part II of the discussion between myself, Vince Lanci and Tom Bodroviks of Palisades Gold Radio. Vince and I try to walk through the mechanisms through which a market shifts from one place to another and why that has massive implications for the US dollar and the global economy.
This isn't an hour of doom porn, but rather a sober look at how real markets and market players respond to incentives over time and in response to policy.
