• The Truth About China That The West Gets Wrong 30.05.2026 1h 50m

  Jay sits down with Peter Alexander, founder and managing director of Z-Ben Advisors, for a wide-ranging conversation on China’s real position in the global economy. Peter has lived in Shanghai for nearly 30 years, and brings his unique perspective from inside the country on many topics including: China’s political system, manufacturing dominance, Belt and Road strategy and gold. They also discuss why Western narratives on China often miss the deeper story, how China is building long-term leverage, and what this means for investors watching the next phase of U.S.-China competition.

• THE TRUTH ABOUT THE ENERGY CRISIS AHEAD 14.02.2026 1h 2m

  Is geopolitics really about ideology? Or is it a global portfolio reallocation? In this conversation, Dr. Warwick Powell reframes Trump 2.0, Canada’s trade pivot, Europe’s energy scramble, and the AI boom as symptoms of a deeper structural shift. Powell argues the West has built too many abstractions and not enough productive capacity. We explore whether AI data centers are net-positive infrastructure, what it would actually take to rebuild a durable, energy-secure economy and so much more.

• The Truth Behind the America-Venezuela Conflict 15.11.2025 1h 29m

  Jay is joined by geopolitical analyst and forecaster George Friedman to unpack what President Trump really represents in the long arc of American history. We revisit George’s “vanilla president” thesis and why, personality aside, Trump’s project to dismantle the post-1945 world order was predictable and perhaps inevitable. We dig into the shift from global policeman back toward U.S. isolationism, the real story behind Venezuela and the U.S. military build-up in the Caribbean, and why a renewed Russia–Cuba pact makes the Florida Straits one of the most important choke points on Earth.

• Richard Wolff vs. Jay Martin: Debating the Future of America 08.11.2025 1h 10m

  In today’s episode, I sit down with Professor Richard Wolff for a raw, unscripted debate on capitalism, socialism, and the future of the American Dream. New York City’s election of a socialist mayor sets the stage, but the conversation quickly dives into the deeper forces splitting the country in two and the slow unraveling of a system that millions feel no longer works for them. We go back and forth on wealth, risk, entrepreneurship, worker power, and whether the U.S. is inching toward a historic transition far bigger than anyone realizes.

• Colonel Macgregor: America’s Collapse Will Create A New Financial System 18.10.2025 59m

  In this hard-hitting conversation, Jay sits down with Colonel Douglas Macgregor to dissect the unraveling of U.S. global dominance and the rise of a multipolar world. Macgregor argues that Washington’s addiction to military coercion, economic sanctions, and moral posturing has left America isolated and financially brittle, while China, Russia, and India quietly build alternative trade and monetary systems. He warns that U.S. diplomacy has been replaced by bullying and that the reckoning will come in the form of inflation, declining trust at home, and waning credibility abroad.
