Kerry Lutz and Robert Kientz dig into the U.S. government’s new designation of silver, copper, and potash as critical minerals—a move that could fast-track projects and shift the global resource race. Robert explains why silver is the centerpiece of this policy change, pointing to deepening supply shortages, five straight years of mining deficits, and the growing risk of a historic short squeeze. Industry legend Rick Rule also weighs in with insights on where silver could be headed. The discussion exposes how Wall Street banks are sitting on massive short positions, why Eastern markets are creating their own pricing systems, and how U.S. strategy is scrambling to secure critical minerals for both industry and defense. Robert also outlines smart investment angles in silver royalty companies and junior miners, and highlights the growing movement for gold legal tender laws that could redefine money in America.

Kerry Lutz introduced Darryl Schoon, who shared insights from his 2007 predictions regarding a potential economic collapse, attributing the instability to the Federal Reserve's monetary policies. Darryl compared the U.S. economic approach to that of Britain, emphasizing a more aggressive risk-taking culture in America. He discussed historical parallels with the Great Depression, particularly the role of tariffs in worsening economic downturns, and expressed concerns about the current economic landscape in 2025, suggesting that it bears similarities to past crises. Darryl used a toilet analogy to illustrate the role of central banks in maintaining economic stability since 2009, noting that while ongoing monetary support has prevented immediate collapse, it has created unsustainable pressure on the financial system. He highlighted the public's focus on immediate needs rather than the complexities of economic management, stressing the urgency for a more balanced monetary policy. He also pointed out that the predicted economic collapse has been postponed due to quantitative easing, with significant increases in gold prices and warnings from analysts about the bond markets being the next focal point of financial turmoil. Darryl emphasized the growing importance of gold as a leading asset class in 2025, serving as a hedge against various economic uncertainties. He discussed the dynamics of the precious metals market, noting the ongoing short squeeze in silver and the challenges faced by investors. Additionally, he referenced insights from Michael Hartnett of Bank of America regarding an impending debt shock in the U.S. and the potential for a long-term bear market for the dollar. The conversation also touched on the Inslaw case, highlighting the risks faced by individuals attempting to expose sensitive information, underscoring the broader challenges in the current economic and political landscape.

Kerry Lutz kicks things off with a personal story behind his latest book, sparked by a run-in with an HOA president, before diving into economic red flags with Michael Pento. From Brightline train safety to the Fed’s next move, Pento holds nothing back—calling out Powell’s cheerleaders and slamming the idea of imminent rate cuts.
