Handing Out Red-Pills on the Street Corner of the Culture War

Episodes

September 4, 2025 88 mins
This week the podcast is invaded from the Great White North by Mr. Matt Ehret to assist Dexter and myself to understand the depth of the perfidy that is the place known as the country of Canadia.  Matt goes through a number of eras of Canadian politics to illluminate just how strongly the dead hand of the British Crown rules over the US's supposedly harmless neighbors above the 49th parallel.

Geopolitical analyst and commentator Xoaquin Flores comes back to the podcast to discuss a number of topics in the wake of the Trump/Putin Summit in Alaska on August 15th.  From Turkey's unfocused aggression to the repeated attempts to isolate Serbia, there are no shortage of responses from the "usual suspects" in City of London and Brussels.  Xoaquin breaks these things down in granular detail for us which, to me, is required list...

Custodia Bank CEO and crytpo-advocate Caitlin Long comes back to the podcast to challenge me on a number of subjects concerning the Federal Reserve What role did OMC Chair Jerome Powell play in assisting or hindering the Biden Junta's persecution of conservatives, it's debanking operations, and how it mismanaged the post-COVID world.  We also discuss how that interfaces with the new stablecoin regime being put in place legally by P...

Also for discussion is the possible reform of the Fed, how the Deep State really works, and how to actually get a decent night's sleep amidst all this change.

Dexter White returns to discuss why what you thought you hated inStar Wars: The Acolyte wasn't anything different than why you thought you hated Trump's Budget Reconciliation bill or any other "Outrage Du Jour."  We have a growing divide in political commentary that has trapped an entire locus of people on the left and the right to ensure there is no center.

Bitcoin advocate, entrepreneur, and Albertan patriot Dave Bradley joins me for a belated look at the G-7, Albertan independence and how the rush for pristine collateral is the race against time that Davos and City of London are working so hard to avoid going against their plans for a digitized neo-feudal world.

Vince Lanci returns to the podcast to follow up on Episode #213's discussion with Caitlin Long.  Vince lays out his argument for why the GENIUS Bill, stablecoins, and crypto will usher in a new era of financial terms enforced this time by the US vs. City of London.  

It's the flipside to the ideas floated by Ms. Long.   In short, dollar bulls and bears may in fact be right... but for reasons you haven't truly thought of yet.

Geopolitical badass Xoaquin Flores rejoins the podcast to help me unravel why the alternative media space is suffereing the same types of meltdowns as the legacy (undead) media when it comes to Trump, Putin, Israel and how they are resolving the old Gordian knots of geopolitics.

Author EM Burlingame joins the podcast to explain the centuries-old process of wealth identification and extraction he's termed the "Financial Kill Chain" which goes back to even before the formation of the Bank of England in 1694.  We establish EM's thesis and apply it to the modern implementation of it as it pertains to the US, the UK and how it's failed in both Putin's Russia and Xi's China.

A fascinating talk that is as profane ...
