• #181 - Tom Bilyeu - AI, Bitcoin & the Rigged Economy 03.06.2026 1Std. 25Min.

  Tom Bilyeu joins me to discuss debt, money printing, broken politics, AI, Bitcoin and why the economy feels rigged against ordinary people.Tom argues that every empire eventually faces the same test: whether it can hold the power of the money printer without printing itself into oblivion. We talk about inflation, the debt cycle, asset prices, populism, Britain’s decline, and why the working and middle class are being squeezed.We also get into AI and the future of work. I talk through my own recent experience building a system in seven days that would once have taken a full team and hundreds of thousands of pounds, and Tom explains how AI has already changed the structure of his business.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 - The Economy Is Rigged00:01:09 - Are We Driving Off a Fiscal Cliff?00:03:04 - Debt, Money Printing and Inflation00:04:36 - The Final Boss of Economics00:07:02 - America’s Founding and Wealth Extraction00:10:19 - Can America Be Saved?00:11:46 - Economics Has Physics00:16:06 - Debt, Cancellation and Freedom00:19:03 - The Thucydides Trap00:21:42 - Politics Has Not Been Disrupted00:25:15 - Populism and the Shrinking Pie00:29:07 - Asset Inflation Is Vile00:35:59 - UK Politics Is Breaking Down00:40:36 - Is Sweden Really Socialist?00:42:40 - Where Is the Hope?00:50:16 - Tom’s View on Bitcoin00:53:17 - Peter’s AI Eureka Moment00:57:56 - How AI Changed Tom’s Business01:03:02 - The Four Futures of AI01:12:56 - Is Reality a Simulation?01:24:34 - Tom’s Final Warning- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -CONTACT PETE› Website – http://petermccormack.com› Feedback – https://www.petermccormack.com/contact› Email – me@petermccormack.com› Instagram – /mccormack555› X/Twitter – https://x.com/petermccormack/CONNECT WITH TOM BILYEU› Twitter – https://x.com/TomBilyeu› YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/c/TomBilyeuSPONSORS› IREN - https://www.iren.com/› LEDN - https://www.ledn.io/peter- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE› Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/40ruY9K› Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu› Fountain: https://bit.ly/FountainPM› YouTube: https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM› Rumble: https://bit.ly/RumblePMFILMED BY CURTIS TAYLOR› https://www.curttaylor.co.uk/› https://x.com/curttayloruk/EDITED BY CONOR MCCORMACK› https://x.com/ConorM04- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hosted on Acast.

  Two brothers who escaped Russia say we have 2 years before AI replaces us - and we're paying the corporations building it.Daniil & David Liberman sold their first company to Snapchat.

They explain why centralised AI ends in a two-tier world - a small elite with access, and the rest of us as "moving parts" - and why the next 24 months decide which path we take.In this episode:→ Why you can't opt out of AI and stay competitive→ The recursive loop: AI is now writing AI→ Why the kill switch won't work→ What they saw inside Russia in 2008 that's happening now with AI→ The darkest scenario they almost didn't want to say out loud- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 - AI & Human Freedom00:01:51 - Invisible Slavery00:05:00 - Bitcoin vs AI Centralisation00:10:25 - AI Addiction Begins00:14:27 - The End Of Upward Mobility00:17:33 - The Beautiful AI Future00:23:16 - Why Monopolies Win00:32:36 - Inflation, AI & Collapse00:45:16 - Bitcoin As AI Blueprint01:01:45 - The Mythos Fear01:17:48 - “One Year Left”01:43:05 - The Darkest Scenario01:58:13 - Racing Towards The Wall- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -CONTACT PETE› Website – http://petermccormack.com› Feedback – https://www.petermccormack.com/contact› Email – me@petermccormack.com› Instagram – /mccormack555› X/Twitter – https://x.com/petermccormack/CONNECT WITH LIBERMAN BROTHERS› Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/libermans/› Twitter – https://x.com/DaLiberman› Website – https://www.libermans.co/SPONSORS› IREN - https://www.iren.com› LEDN - https://www.ledn.io/peter› Incogni - https://incogni.com/peter- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE› Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/40ruY9K› Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu› Fountain: https://bit.ly/FountainPM› YouTube: https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM› Rumble: https://bit.ly/RumblePMFILMED BY CURTIS TAYLOR› https://www.curttaylor.co.uk/› https://x.com/curttayloruk/EDITED BY CONOR MCCORMACK› https://x.com/ConorM04- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hosted on Acast.

Within weeks, Niemann was facing global cheating accusations, blacklisting from his own federation, and a fight to save his career.Four years on, he's world No. 12 and still climbing. In this interview, Hans addresses everything: what Magnus actually saw at the board, the $100 prize he won at 12 that became "the greatest crime" of the saga, the 70-page report and what was really in it, the time Magnus was caught taking a move on his own livestream, and the top-10 player banned for cheating whose name was never published.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 - Hans On Magnus00:01:20 - What Did Magnus See When You Beat Him?00:04:40 - "I'm Closer To The Older Players"00:07:20 - Being Called A Cheat At 1900:11:30 - The Chess Mafia00:15:25 - Could You Catch Magnus?00:29:30 - The Cheating Accusations, The Cost00:35:55 - Bitterness Is Poison00:38:25 - WHO Believed The Allegations And Why00:40:40 - Losing Faith In The Media00:43:15 - Navigating Infamy At 1900:45:50 - Naming Chess.com00:48:35 - "Magnus Was Gaslit"00:52:55 - What Did You Actually Admit To?00:55:40 - Magnus Cheated On Camera00:57:00 - Does Magnus Believe You Cheated?00:59:20 - The God Complex01:01:00 - The Dana White Of Chess01:03:15 - Chess As Soft Power01:07:00 - Chess In Every School01:22:20 - Scores To Settle01:23:15 - Washington Square Park- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -CONTACT PETE› Website – http://petermccormack.com› Feedback – https://www.petermccormack.com/contact› Email – me@petermccormack.com› Instagram – /mccormack555› X/Twitter – https://x.com/petermccormack/CONNECT WITH HANS NIEMANN› Twitter – https://x.com/HansMokeNiemann› Website – https://endgame.ai/SPONSORS› IREN - https://www.iren.com› LEDN - https://www.ledn.io/peter› Monetary Metals - https://www.Monetary-Metals.com/McCormack- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE› Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/40ruY9K› Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu› Fountain: https://bit.ly/FountainPM› YouTube: https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM› Rumble: https://bit.ly/RumblePMFILMED BY CURTIS TAYLOR› https://www.curttaylor.co.uk/› https://x.com/curttayloruk/EDITED BY CONOR MCCORMACK› https://x.com/ConorM04- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hosted on Acast.

• #166 - Freddie New - How Governments Destroy Money and Empires (The Lessons From Rome) 16.04.2026 1Std. 12Min.

  Freddie New studied the classics and has spent years obsessing over one question: how does a superpower destroy itself? The answer, he argues, is always the same - it starts with the money.In this conversation we map the fall of Rome directly onto the West today. The Roman denarius lost 97% of its purchasing power over 150 years. The British pound has lost 95% of its in the last century alone. The parallels don't stop there - military overstretch, a dependent population kept loyal by the state, leaders who can't stop the printing even when they know it's killing them. Rome couldn't stop. We can't either.Freddie has read all 1.5 million words of Edward Gibbon's History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. In this conversation he explains what that teaches us about where we are right now - and whether there is a way out.In this episode:•⁠ ⁠How Rome debased the denarius from 100% silver to 3% over 300 years•⁠ ⁠Why currency debasement always starts slowly and why it can never be stopped•⁠ ⁠The eerie similarity between Rome's military dependence and modern welfare states•⁠ ⁠What Diocletian's price controls tell us about every government's response to inflation•⁠ ⁠Why Constantine's hard money reset saved the empire for another generation•⁠ ⁠What hard money offers that fiat never can•⁠ ⁠Whether the West can course correct or whether collapse is now inevitable- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 - Currency Collapse Starts00:01:17 - Rome vs Britain00:05:00 - How Debasement Spreads00:09:52 - The Soft Default00:18:02 - The Grift Economy00:22:18 - The Hollowing Out00:30:19 - How Rome Worked00:35:00 - Why Collapse Happens00:39:08 - Welfare And Power00:46:28 - War Footing Debate00:52:33 - Are We In Decline?00:57:54 - Constantine Solution01:05:22 - AI And Power Shift- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -CONTACT PETE› Website – http://petermccormack.com› Feedback – https://www.petermccormack.com/contact› Email – me@petermccormack.com› Instagram – /mccormack555› X/Twitter – https://x.com/petermccormack/CONNECT WITH FREDDIE NEW› Twitter – https://x.com/freddienew› Website – https://bitcoinpolicy.uk/SPONSORS› IREN - https://www.iren.com› LEDN - https://www.ledn.io/peter› Monetary Metals - https://www.Monetary-Metals.com/McCormack- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE› Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/40ruY9K› Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu› Fountain: https://bit.ly/FountainPM› YouTube: https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM› Rumble: https://bit.ly/RumblePMFILMED BY CURTIS TAYLOR› https://www.curttaylor.co.uk/› https://x.com/curttayloruk/EDITED BY CONOR MCCORMACK› https://x.com/ConorM04- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hosted on Acast.

  Emmet Connor, author of Red Pandemic, joins me to discuss his claim that Marxist ideas are expanding globally through culture, institutions and politics.We start with the core question: is there actually a coherent Marxist movement in the modern West or is the term being used too loosely to describe broader social change?We also explore what Marxism is today, how it may have evolved beyond its original economic focus and whether its historical outcomes are a failure of implementation or something inherent to the ideology itself.- ⁠- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 - Marxism Or Leftism00:05:00 - Defining The Revolution00:10:55 - Useful Idiots Problem00:18:52 - Fabian Influence Debate00:30:00 - Do Marxists Know?00:37:52 - How Ideas Spread00:48:34 - Freedom And Liberty01:02:23 - The Right’s Branding01:16:30 - Where The Right Wins01:30:31 - Power And Democracy01:46:56 - What People Actually Want02:10:23 - Final Reflections- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -CONTACT PETE› Website – http://petermccormack.com› Feedback – https://www.petermccormack.com/contact› Email – me@petermccormack.com› Instagram – /mccormack555› X/Twitter – https://x.com/petermccormack/CONNECT WITH EMMET CONNOR› Twitter – https://x.com/ResolvingR› Book – https://omnia-veritas.com/product/red-pandemic/› YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AI2cy4Dp_8MSPONSORS› LEDN - https://www.ledn.io/peter› Monetary Metals - https://www.Monetary-Metals.com/McCormack- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE› Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/40ruY9K › Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu› Fountain: https://bit.ly/FountainPM› YouTube: https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM› Rumble: https://bit.ly/RumblePMFILMED BY CURTIS TAYLOR› https://www.curttaylor.co.uk/› https://x.com/curttayloruk/EDITED BY CONOR MCCORMACK› https://x.com/ConorM04- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hosted on Acast.

  Liz Truss, former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, joins me to discuss what really happened during her time in office and why she believes the UK is in long-term economic and political decline.We talk about the limits of political power, the role of institutions like the Bank of England, and why she argues that meaningful change is harder than voters realise. Liz also reflects on why she was removed from office and whether Britain can reverse its current trajectory.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 - Who Has Power00:02:09 - 25 Years Stagnation00:07:13 - “I Was Vindicated”00:12:04 - Politicians vs Blob00:16:52 - Anti-Establishment Movement00:22:29 - Bank of England Power00:30:46 - Leadership vs Movement00:37:20 - How The System Controls00:46:44 - Who Runs Government00:54:28 - Reversing The System01:00:01 - Consequences of Decline01:04:59 - Debt Crisis Risk- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -CONTACT PETE› Website – http://petermccormack.com› Feedback – https://www.petermccormack.com/contact› Email – me@petermccormack.com› Instagram – /mccormack555› X/Twitter – https://x.com/petermccormack/CONNECT WITH LIZ TRUSS› Website – https://www.cpac.org/int/greatbritain/home› Twitter – https://x.com/trusslizSPONSORS› IREN - https://iren.com› LEDN - https://www.ledn.io/peter› Monetary Metals - https://www.Monetary-Metals.com/McCormack- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE› Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/40ruY9K› Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu› Fountain: https://bit.ly/FountainPM› YouTube: https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM› Rumble: https://bit.ly/RumblePMFILMED BY CURTIS TAYLOR› https://www.curttaylor.co.uk/› https://x.com/curttayloruk/EDITED BY CONOR MCCORMACK› https://x.com/ConorM04- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hosted on Acast.

• #163 - Scott Horton - How Debt, Inflation and War Are All Connected 08.04.2026 1Std. 15Min.

  Scott Horton is the director of Antiwar.com and one of the most outspoken critics of US foreign policy.In this episode, Scott explains how war connects directly to the things people feel every day - rising prices, falling purchasing power, growing debt and a system that never seems to improve no matter who is in charge.We also discuss how governments fund wars, why debt keeps expanding, how inflation quietly shifts the cost onto ordinary people and the incentives that keep the cycle going. Lastly, Scott explains the role of media, the relationship between politics and defence spending, and why these conflicts continue even when public support is weak.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 - Perpetual War System00:02:00 - Hidden War Tax00:05:00 - Debt Spiral00:08:00 - Empire Costs00:09:30 - War & Inflation00:25:00 - Cost Of War00:28:40 - Iron Triangle00:33:10 - “It’s A Racket”00:43:30 - Emotional Toll01:02:10 - Any Hope Left01:05:00 - How It Ends- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -CONTACT PETE› Website – http://petermccormack.com› Feedback – https://www.petermccormack.com/contact› Email – me@petermccormack.com› Instagram – /mccormack555› X/Twitter – https://x.com/petermccormack/CONNECT WITH SCOTT HORTON› Website – https://scotthortonacademy.com/› Twitter – https://x.com/scotthortonshowSPONSORS› IREN - https://www.iren.com/› Monetary Metals - https://www.Monetary-Metals.com/McCormack- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE› Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/40ruY9K› Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu› Fountain: https://bit.ly/FountainPM› YouTube: https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM› Rumble: https://bit.ly/RumblePMFILMED BY CURTIS TAYLOR› https://www.curttaylor.co.uk/› https://x.com/curttayloruk/EDITED BY CONOR MCCORMACK› https://x.com/ConorM04- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hosted on Acast.

• #162 - Mike Green - The Economy is Collapsing, Time to Prepare 02.04.2026 1Std. 7Min.

  Are we heading for a mathematical market crash or has the system just been perfectly designed to extract your wealth? In this episode, I sit down with macro-strategist Mike Green to discuss the hidden plumbing of the global economy. Mike explains why the stock market is no longer tied to reality, how the rise of passive index funds has created a dangerous "flow inelastic trap" and why the modern retirement system is forcing a massive generational wealth crisis. Mike also explains the brutal economic realities of the Middle East conflict, how monopolies have secretly captured free-market capitalism and reveals a new data point: how corporations are actively using AI to eliminate jobs for the younger generation. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - TIMESTAMPS: 00:00:00 - System Feels Broken 00:01:58 - War Hits Your Wallet 00:06:22 - Power And Control 00:10:45 - Retirement Was Rewired 00:15:55 - The Market Tipping Point 00:20:08 - Why Nothing Works 00:24:00 - Capitalism Got Captured 00:33:28 - The Real Problem 00:35:47 - AI Changes Everything 00:44:00 - The Fed Is Trapped 00:51:12 - The Credit Unwind 00:59:47 - What Happens Next - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - CONTACT PETE › Website – http://petermccormack.com › Feedback – https://www.petermccormack.com/contact › Email – me@petermccormack.com › Instagram – /mccormack555 › X/Twitter – https://x.com/petermccormack/ CONNECT WITH MIKE GREEN › Website – https://www.simplify.us › Twitter – https://x.com/profplum99 › Substack – https://substack.com/@michaelwgreen SPONSORS › IREN - https://www.iren.com/ › Monetary Metals - https://www.Monetary-Metals.com/McCormack - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE › Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/40ruY9K › Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu › Fountain: https://bit.ly/FountainPM › YouTube: https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM › Rumble: https://bit.ly/RumblePM FILMED BY CURTIS TAYLOR › https://www.curttaylor.co.uk/ › https://x.com/curttayloruk/ EDITED BY CONOR MCCORMACK › https://x.com/ConorM04 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hosted on Acast.
