I'm excited to share my conversation with @Erik_YWR. Erik runs the fantastic Substack YWR.world. This conversation covers all things inflation. We discuss the main drivers of inflation/deflation, what has happened over the past 20 years in the US, why this time might be different, and how to profit from a higher-for-longer inflationary world. I really hope you enjoy this as much as I did. If you want to learn more about Erik, check him out on Twitter @Erik_YWR. Finally, a big thanks to...

I'm stoked to share my conversation with Calvin Froedge. Calvin has one of the most unique investing backgrounds I've encountered in four years of the podcast. He didn't graduate high school. Instead, he spent his late teen years working for his dad's machinery business. He explored other business ventures in his early twenties before moving to Panama. Today, Calvin spends his time researching new investments and running his Shipping Data company, Marhelm. I thoroughly enjoyed this...

David Bastian of Kingdom Capital is BACK for another podcast. This time we're diving deep into GEN Restaurant Group (GENK). DISCLOSURE: I/WE AND DAVID OWN SHARES AS OF THIS PODCAST. We are free to change our minds and trade in/out of this position after the podcast is released. I'll say it again, none of this is investment advice. Do your own work. Don't trust two randoms with a microphone. I think it's a unique situation that reminds me of Kura Sushi (KRUS), which went from $14 to...

Alberto is one of the most underfollowed accounts on Twitter/X. He provides tremendous value for generalist investors willing to hunt in commodity markets. This week, Alberto dove deep into uranium assets, Ero Copper, and the bull case for Platinum Group Metals (PGMs). I'm a huge fan of Alberto's Substack, which you can read here: https://albertoag.substack.com/ Also, make sure to follow Alberto on Twitter @AAGResearch Finally, a big thanks to the following sponsors for making the...

I loved this conversation for a few reasons. One, Auke is an incredibly smart person. You'll pick that up quickly. Two, I don't agree with everything Auke believes, which makes for a fascinating conversation. Auke is a staunch renewable energy advocate. I'm on the fence. I think we can live somewhere in between where fossil fuels play their role, and if it is economical and just as good, renewables should be there too. We spend almost 90 minutes discussing: The bull case for renewable...

I'm excited to share my conversation with Left Field Investing. Left Field is quickly becoming one of my favorite Substack research accounts. He has a knack for finding off-the-beaten-path small-to-micro cap ideas that nobody else is writing about. Another reason I love this guy is he has a unique, non-investment background. In other words, he cut his teeth the old school way, teaching himself the game without a silver spoon. If you like what you hear, check out his Substack:...

I'm very excited to share my conversation with John Swallow, CEO of Idaho Strategic Resources (IDR). IDR is a small cap gold producer that does things differently. They generate cash flow. Then use that cash flow to explore their massive land package for gold and rare earth elements (REEs). John is a true owner operator. Not only is he the CEO, he owns a lot of the company's stock, barely makes more than the average mining geologist on his team, and has a long-term ownership mindset....

I'm excited to share my conversation with Ernset Scheyder. Ernest is a writer for Reuters and recently authored the book "The War Below: Lithium, Copper, And The Global Battle To Power Our Lives." I just got my copy in the mail and can't wait to read it. During the podcast, I spend an hour dissecting Ernest's writing habits/strategies, early background as a journalist, and what led him to writing this book. From there, we explore the world of critical minerals from a human...

I hope you guys enjoy my podcast with Aaron Edelheit on the Cannabis industry. I had Aaron on the podcast two years ago to dive deep into the cannabis space. Since then, the industry has done nothing but incinerate investor capital. And that's precisely why I wanted to interview Aaron. I love his transparency, humility, and ability to objectively assess where/what he got wrong, and how he plans on fixing his cannabis investing process in 2024. Thanks again to Aaron for coming back...

Please enjoy my conversation with Rebecca Hunter, VP of Exploration at Forum Energy Metals $FMC.V. Rebecca has spent her life exploring the world for commodities, specifically uranium. This week, we get a boots-on-the-ground view of what it's like to explore for uranium. We discuss everything that goes into it, including geophysics, drilling, capital allocation, where to drill, and what red flags Rebecca sees in other junior explorer companies. Finally, we end the conversation...

I hope you enjoy this podcast with Peter Pham of Inversion Investor. Peter is one of the most unique investors I've come across.

We cover a ton of ground, spanning myriad topics and thousands of years of history. I hope you enjoy it. Finally, a big thanks to the following sponsors for making the podcast a...

I'm excited to share this week's podcast with Judd Arnold. This is Judd's third appearance on Value Hive and he never disappoints. This week we're doing something completely different. We're dissecting one of Judd's past off-market deals that involves the TSA, The US Government, tons of patent litigation, and an 60+ year old inventor who made something obvious that wasn't so obvious. It's a great Christmas/Holiday break from my current content of investor letters and individual stock...

I'm excited to share my podcast with Chris Abbott of 1035 Capital. Chris is a dumpster diver investor. He scours the corners of the market looking in the ugliest places and finding the ugliest stocks. I love it. I've got a soft spot for distressed/hated ideas. Maybe its because I'm reading/studying distressed investing currently. Or maybe its because dumpster diving feels like "real" value investing. We discussed a handful of ideas, including CSSE, VTNR, LFMD, and SLNH. It's wild that...

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you had a great time with family and friends this Holiday Weekend. This week, I've got Dan Bianchini on the podcast. Dan is a retail investor that knows more about $MEEC than almost anyone. He's heavily invested (as of this episode) in the special situation, and he spends an hour discussing why. This was a thoughtful conversation. Dan is a serious retail investor and doesn't shy away from company red flags or legitimate bear arguments. It was very refreshing. I...
