Vince (VBL) Lanci joins me again to discuss some interesting parallels and crucial differences between gold miners and bitcoin miners. Vince shares his thoughts about the real world of how the banks insert themselves into any trade they can to make their vig and why what they've done with gold miners in the past is not the prologue for bitcoin miners in the future.

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. Show Notes: Pete's blog Pete's substack -- By Any Meme's Necessary!

Author, gadfly and podcaster James Delingpole returns for another round of dueling pills of the vaguely black and whiter shade of pale. We try and make sense of our own biases and previous programming of the earlier stages of the war against humanity, while acknowledging that yes, indeed, Virginia there is an evil Santa Klaus trying to make us crazy. Show Notes: The Delingpod

Alex Krainer returns to the podcast to update us on the state of the war for gflobal collateral and how that informs all the geopolitical moves happening as we end 2023.

Vince Lanci of Gold Fix returns to the show to discuss, unconscious bias, Japan and the Fremen... among other things.

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 nightmare that has turned car ownership from an opportunity into a burden. Show Notes: Eric Peters Auto Eric on Twitter

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. Show Notes: Palisades Gold Radio - Podcast Tom B on Twitter/X

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.
