What makes some people supercommunicators? How can you become one too? This is the central lesson in Charles Duhigg’s bestseller Supercommunicators: How to Unlock the Secret of Communication. Charles and Chris dissect what makes messy conversations so great, how to ask deep questions, and whether women and men communicate differently. They also discuss the different rules for different technologies — from telephones to Facebook to Signal — and how cautious politeness may be the best method to communicate effectively online.

#388 - Kathryn Porter: The UK Energy Crisis 1:12:12

for 12 weeks siden1:12:12

1:12:12

In this episode of Chatter, Josh Hamilton is joined by Kathryn Porter to ask why the UK is paying the highest energy costs in the developed world? Why isn't the cost of electric falling when the price of gas falls? Why aren't renewables making our energy cheaper? Are wind and solar cheaper than fossil fuels? Is net zero a bad idea? We cover all this and more including: - The hidden (and not-so-hidden) costs of wind and solar - How decades of energy mismanagement have left our grid vulnerable - Why nuclear might be the only sensible path forward - The reality of where your green energy really comes from Kathryn Porter is an energy consultant and the founder of Watt-Logic, a UK-based consultancy focused on energy markets, regulation, and strategy. She’s widely regarded for her sharp, data-driven insights and for being an outspoken critic of poorly designed energy policy—particularly in the UK. She’s best known for challenging the mainstream energy narrative, particularly around renewables, carbon pricing, and the economics of net zero—often arguing that current policies are driving up costs and risking the stability of the energy system. https://x.com/kathrynporter26 https://watt-logic.com/ **Timestamps** 00:00 - Intro 00:50 – "Challenges of the Polluter Pays Doctrine" 06:05 – Renewable Energy Infrastructure Costs 13:10 – "Challenges of Weather-Dependent Renewables" 17:31 – Offshore Wind's Hidden Environmental Costs 24:23 – Graphite, Earthquakes, and Reactor Safety 32:47 – Aging Energy Infrastructure Concerns 36:10 – Legacy Project Specification Bias 40:26 – Gas Generation Necessity and Delays 44:38 – Government Support Needed for Turbines 49:42 – "Last House on the Grid" 58:35 – French Energy Policy Missteps 01:04:29 – "Streamlining Nuclear Regulations Proposed" 01:06:40 – Balancing Safety and Practicality 01:11:14 – Links Provided in Description ----------------------------------------------------- Cast-Magic: The World's Most Powerful Content Tool (30% off with code Casting30) - https://get.castmagic.io/4ktvtch68y67 Make Professional Looking Clips In Seconds With Opus - https://www.opus.pro/?via=ee2b04 Buy Brexit: The Establishment Civil War - https://amzn.to/39XXVjq ----------------------------------------------------- You can listen to the show on Spotify, Apple, and all major platforms - https://open.spotify.com/show/76UxJtSxGEUg4ZCF0TKLpB?si=769245621e5c4cb2 Watch Us On Odysee.com - https://odysee.com/$/invite/@TheJist:4 Join My Mailing List - https://stats.sender.net/forms/dNZK8d/view Follow Me On Twitter - https://twitter.com/Give_Me_TheJist ----------------------------------------------------- Website - https://thejist.co.uk/ Music from Just Jim – https://soundcloud.com/justjim…

#387 - Freddie New: Private Equity Is A Curse 1:10:30

What really happened to Britain’s economy? Why does it feel like everything’s getting more expensive, yet we’re getting less in return? In this episode, I sat down with Freddie New — a former private equity lawyer and now Chief Policy Officer at Bitcoin Policy UK — to break down some of the biggest questions about money, power, and the state of the UK economy. From North Sea oil and the squandered opportunity to build a trillion-pound sovereign wealth fund, to the shady mechanics of Thames Water and private equity takeovers, this chat goes deep. We also got into the messy world of government debt, why we pay interest on money we literally print ourselves, and whether the Bank of England is still fit for purpose. Freddie had some incredibly sharp takes on the dangers of CBDCs (central bank digital currencies), the importance of cash, and why controlling money is the fastest shortcut to controlling people. If you've ever wondered why things feel broken — or where the money actually goes — this one’s for you. Oh, and if you’ve ever been hit with insane Visa or Mastercard fees, or wondered why Bitcoin might actually be useful for real people, not just crypto nerds — we covered that too. It’s a wide-ranging convo about finance, freedom, and how we take back control from the systems quietly draining us.

John Perkins is a former economist and author best known for his book Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, where he claims to have helped the U.S. government and corporations manipulate developing countries through debt. The book documents Perkins’ eye-opening experiences as an economist embroiled in geopolitics, covert operations, and the far-reaching impact of Western intervention in countries like Iran. His role was to convince foreign leaders to accept massive loans for infrastructure projects, trapping them in long-term dependency.We talked about his experiences as an "economic hitman," sharing eye-opening stories about U.S. involvement in foreign countries like Iran and the consequences of putting nations into debt for resources and influence. We also talked about the difference between "death" and "life" economies, the potential for real change in international institutions, and what we can learn from indigenous ways of living in harmony with nature. We also touched on personal transformation, the power of perception, and how each of us can make a positive impact, no matter where we are.Confessions of an Economic Hit Man - https://amzn.to/468EjX5 John's Website - https://johnperkins.org/ 00:00 - Iran vs Israel04:53 - Iranian Resentment and U.S. Policies08:21 - Expat Language Barriers in Iran11:02 - Clandestine Meetings14:44 - Using Debt for Resource Control18:32 - Trump Disbands USAID21:07 - Economic Hitman Traits25:21 - Well-Connected Friends29:22 - Encouraged to Join Peace Corps30:11 - Manufactured Politicians and Intelligence Influence34:11 - Respect for Indigenous Nature Philosophy38:00 - Nature-Integrated Urban Living41:55 - Pedestrianising Cities44:08 - Leaving The Military Industrial Complex49:42 - Personal Development50:46 - Facing What's Blocking You54:05 - Mayans and The Amazon58:00 - Witnessing Human Evolution-----------------------------------------------------PRE-ORDER MY GAMESTOP BOOK - https://wen-moon.com Cast-Magic: The World's Most Powerful Content Tool (30% off with code Casting30) - https://get.castmagic.io/4ktvtch68y67 Make Professional Looking Clips In Seconds With Opus - https://www.opus.pro/?via=ee2b04 Buy Brexit: The Establishment Civil War - https://amzn.to/39XXVjq ----------------------------------------------------- You can listen to the show on Spotify, Apple, and all major platforms - https://open.spotify.com/show/76UxJtSxGEUg4ZCF0TKLpB?si=769245621e5c4cb2 Join My Mailing List - https://stats.sender.net/forms/dNZK8d/view Follow Me On Twitter - https://twitter.com/Give_Me_TheJist ----------------------------------------------------- Website - https://thejist.co.uk/ Music from Just Jim – https://soundcloud.com/justjim…

PRE-ORDER MY GAMESTOP BOOK - https://wen-moon.com In this episode of Chatter, I sat down with Micheal Every, global strategist at Rabobank Singapore, to talk about the end of globalisation, why the West is imploding from within, and how a new kind of economic warfare is replacing free trade. We got deep into the geopolitics of the Middle East, Ukraine, China, and what the U.S. might do next. Micheal also explained why our financial system is built on "financial flatulence," how the global elite lost the plot, and why the big question we should all be asking is: what is GDP even for?

Josh and Dr. Aliyev unpack the real numbers behind GameStop’s turnaround, discuss the future of brick-and-mortar gaming retail, and speculate on what’s next for the company—from acquisitions to more crypto investments.

1:09:07

ORDER MY GAMESTOP BOOK - https://wen-moon.com In this episode, I sat down with John Rapley, who co-wrote “Why Empires Fall.” The conversation kicks off with a bit about how John and his co-author, Peter Heather, came up with the idea for the book. They realized that even though they came from different academic backgrounds, they had similar ideas about how empires rise and collapse—whether we’re talking about ancient Rome or today’s Western world led by the US. John explains that empires get rich and powerful by exploiting their “peripheries” (i.e., colonies or less developed countries). But over time, those peripheries grow stronger and can eventually challenge the empire’s dominance. In Rome’s day, this happened with actual invasions, but now it’s more about economic competition and shifting global power. They talk about how the Western world isn’t necessarily doomed to collapse like Rome did, mainly because of technology and ongoing economic growth. However, if Western countries make poor policy choices—like trying to recreate past “greatness” without adapting to new realities—they could end up in serious decline, both relative to other countries and in real terms. https://x.com/jarapley 00:00 Periphery's Rise, Empire's Decline 06:54 Managing US Global Strategy Shift 12:07 "Fragmenting Western Empire Dynamics" 16:21 Post-Brexit Soft Power Decline 25:22 "Bretton Woods: Catalyst of Collapse?" 28:48 Global Trade: Shifting Power Dynamics 33:34 Global Trade Dynamics Disrupted 41:02 Rethinking Trade and Manufacturing Strategy 44:57 Brexit and Europe's Brain Drain 52:16 Currency Debasement and Worker Taxation 54:29 Bitcoin Million Possibility: Economic Implications 01:00:04 Debating Western Decline Analogies 01:05:23 Western Decline and Global Power Shift ----------------------------------------------------- PRE-ORDER MY GAMESTOP BOOK - https://wen-moon.com Cast-Magic: The World's Most Powerful Content Tool (30% off with code Casting30) - https://get.castmagic.io/4ktvtch68y67 Make Professional Looking Clips In Seconds With Opus - https://www.opus.pro/?via=ee2b04 Buy Brexit: The Establishment Civil War - https://amzn.to/39XXVjq ----------------------------------------------------- You can listen to the show on Spotify, Apple, and all major platforms - https://chatterpodcast.podbean.com/ Watch Us On Odysee.com - https://odysee.com/$/invite/@TheJist:4 Join My Mailing List - https://stats.sender.net/forms/dNZK8d/view Follow Me On Twitter - https://twitter.com/Give_Me_TheJist ----------------------------------------------------- Website - https://thejist.co.uk/ Music from Just Jim – https://soundcloud.com/justjim…

Welcome to another exciting episode of Chatter with Morantz from the Morantz Rantz YouTube channel. Morantz is here to share his insights on why he remains steadfast in his belief in GameStop's potential, the evolving strategies under the leadership of Ryan Cohen, and the unique position of the company in the face of turbulent retail market trends. We discuss the nuances of GameStop's business model transformations, touch upon the controversial Bed Bath & Beyond saga, and discuss the impact of institutional ownership on bitcoin and beyond. We also explore Morantz's perspective on private equity and its influence on today's economic landscape. Morantz is a dedicated student of retail investing and business operations, with a particular focus on understanding industry shifts and trends. His extensive study of these areas has given him insight into the evolving strategies of companies like GameStop. Morantz likens the process of transformation within businesses to a fitness journey, where immediate results are rare, but long-term commitment and effort lead to success. His observations on GameStop suggest a belief in the company's potential for positive change, akin to sculpting a physique with patience and dedication. ----------------------------------------------------- PRE-ORDER MY GAMESTOP BOOK - https://wen-moon.com Cast-Magic: The World's Most Powerful Content Tool (30% off with code Casting30) - https://get.castmagic.io/4ktvtch68y67 Make Professional Looking Clips In Seconds With Opus - https://www.opus.pro/?via=ee2b04 Buy Brexit: The Establishment Civil War - https://amzn.to/39XXVjq ----------------------------------------------------- You can listen to the show on Spotify, Apple, and all major platforms - https://chatterpodcast.podbean.com/ Watch Us On Odysee.com - https://odysee.com/$/invite/@TheJist:4 Join My Mailing List - https://stats.sender.net/forms/dNZK8d/view Follow Me On Twitter - https://twitter.com/Give_Me_TheJist ----------------------------------------------------- Website - https://thejist.co.uk/ Music from Just Jim – https://soundcloud.com/justjim…

Peter Heather debunks the traditional narrative of Rome's moral decadence and instead highlights the strategic challenges and evolving economic landscape that contributed to the Empire's gradual collapse. The discussion shifts to modern parallels, drawing connections between Rome's historical challenges and contemporary issues faced by the Western world, including economic shifts, aging populations, and fiscal policy concerns. The episode also covers fascinating insights into archaeological methods used to understand Rome's economy, critiques of Edward Gibbon’s historical interpretations, and the role of local and global economic changes in shaping empires past and present.

25% off 20 taxis - https://get.business.bolt.eu/vkwniosn0rro [BB25OFF20] In this video, I spoke to people at the farmers protest in London, where thousands of farmers are taking a stand against the proposed inheritance tax reforms announced in the Autumn Budget 2024 by Chancellor Rachel Reeves. Starting in April 2026, farms valued at over £1 million will face a 20% inheritance tax, a significant change from previous policies that exempted most family farms. 📢 Why Are Farmers Protesting? On November 19, 2024, over 20,000 farmers gathered at Parliament Square in London, organized by the National Farmers' Union (NFU) and other agricultural bodies. Farmers fear these tax changes will force them to sell parts of their land, jeopardizing their livelihoods and the future of family-run farms. 🎙 Key Voices from the Protest Notable voices like Jeremy Clarkson have described these tax reforms as a "hammer blow" to British agriculture. But beyond celebrity soundbites, real farmers argue that while their land may hold paper value, their incomes are modest, making it difficult to shoulder these new tax burdens. 🌍 The Bigger Picture The farming community is already grappling with post-Brexit trade uncertainty, rising operational costs, and climate change challenges. The added inheritance tax could push more farms into corporate ownership or tax shelters, leading to less land used for productive farming and a greater reliance on imported food. ----------------------------------------------------- PRE-ORDER MY GAMESTOP BOOK - https://wen-moon.com Cast-Magic: The World's Most Powerful Content Tool (30% off with code Casting30) - https://get.castmagic.io/4ktvtch68y67 Make Professional Looking Clips In Seconds With Opus - https://www.opus.pro/?via=ee2b04 Buy Brexit: The Establishment Civil War - https://amzn.to/39XXVjq ----------------------------------------------------- You can listen to the show on Spotify, Apple, and all major platforms - https://chatterpodcast.podbean.com/ Watch Us On Odysee.com - https://odysee.com/$/invite/@TheJist:4 Join My Mailing List - https://stats.sender.net/forms/dNZK8d/view Follow Me On Twitter - https://twitter.com/Give_Me_TheJist ----------------------------------------------------- Website - https://thejist.co.uk/ Music from Just Jim – https://soundcloud.com/justjim…

#365 - Michael Anton Fischer: Four Cycles of Money & #Bitcoin Nation 1:03:09

for 49 weeks siden1:03:09

1:03:09

Michael Anton Fischer has always harbored a deep interest in economics, despite initially pursuing a degree in engineering. Using his engineering knowledge as a foundation, he delved into the study of economics only to find certain discrepancies in conventional teachings. This discovery led him to explore alternative perspectives, notably the Austrian School of economic thought. During his intellectual journey, Fischer also encountered the works of Alfred Landsberg, a Jewish English banker who immigrated to Germany in the late 19th century. Landsberg, an early critic of mainstream economic theories, famously predicted the hyperinflation of 1923 as early as 1919. Inspired by these insights, Fischer developed a nuanced understanding of economic systems, blending traditional engineering principles with alternative economic theories to navigate and understand the complexities of the financial world. 🌟 🎙️ Key Takeaways from "Bitcoin Nation" 🎙️ 🌟 🔹 History Repeating: Michael Anton Fischer revitalizes the legacy of Alfred Landsberg, a pioneer in predicting hyperinflation, drawing clear parallels between post-World War I Germany and current economic conditions.

#364 - Liz Webster: What Everyone Is Missing About The Farmer's Protest 50:51

for 50 weeks siden50:51

50:51

In our latest episode of Chatter, we had a thought-provoking discussion with Liz Webster, founder of Save British Farming, about the evolving disparities in our clothing and food systems. Here are three key takeaways: 🔹 Two-Tiered Society Echoes Historical Feudalism: Liz delves into the alarming trend where industrialization reserves quality products for the wealthy, while the majority subsist on mass-produced goods, likening it to a regressive economic pattern reminiscent of feudal societies. 🔹 Impact of Inheritance Tax on Farmers: The proposed changes to UK inheritance tax rules could exacerbate financial challenges for farmers. While aiming to provide relief, the nuances of these changes might push more farmers to sell their land, further detaching agricultural land from productive use. 🔹 Grassroots Movements and Political Advocacy: Liz emphasizes the importance of grassroots movements to support farmers and the need for advocates to pressure MPs into considering balanced agricultural policies. Citing the film "V for Vendetta," she calls for collective action to combat inequitable policies. For those passionate about sustainable farming and food security, Liz's insights are a critical call to action.

Adam B. Coleman is my guest on this show to explore political party dynamics and the 2024 re-election of Donald Trump. Adam, founder of Wrong Speak Publishing and columnist for major media outlets, brings a nuanced perspective on shifting voter loyalties, economic challenges, and Trump’s evolving political strategy. 💼🇺🇸#PoliticalShift #Trump2024 #WorkingClassVoters The game has changed in the political arena, with the Democratic Party now seen as the realm of wealth and celebrities, while Trump's Republican Party appeals more to the working class. Adam Coleman sheds light on this transformation, highlighting how Trump's policies resonate with voters facing economic hardships and volatile immigration issues. "Listeners, we’re observing a seismic shift—where the elites are moving left, and the working class, particularly among Black and Latino voters, are leaning right," says Adam. #ShiftInDynamics #DemocraticWealth #RepublicanCoalition #EconomicFactors #ImmigrantPolicy #IdentityPolitics 00:00 Economics drive perception of Kamala Harris's role. 04:14 Government mismanages immigration; cartels profiting. 09:39 Illegal immigration harms society and enables exploitation. 11:21 Democrats now wealthy party, Republicans changed. 14:05 Democratic Party highlights elite over diverse voices. 17:20 HR perplexed by working-class demographic shift. 23:28 Person struggles to reconcile views on Trump. 27:14 J.D.

Melissa Cuimei joins me to discuss the proposed NI Health bill, the Canadian and Scottish equivalents, and the budget! The Northern Ireland Public Health Bill is criticized for aiming to make emergency powers permanent, including forced medical actions. "COVID-19 was a beta test for suspending our rights," she asserts. Using data obtained by Kathy Gray, Melissa questions the pandemic narrative, noting that only 277 people in Northern Ireland died exclusively from COVID-19 over four years. Melissa sounds the alarm on asset management firms like BlackRock becoming landlords, hinting at a modern feudal system. "If we aren't mindful, we'll end up renting all our lives while a small elite controls the land," she warns. She stresses political activism, especially in Northern Ireland. "People must challenge policies that strip away personal freedoms," Melissa underscores. Melissa points out potential government overreach, like property seizures during emergencies. She expresses concern over the Canadian Bill (C293) that allows property expropriation for pandemic purposes. "Public trust in the government is crucial, yet it's been severely shaken," she notes. #AssetManagement #TenantRights #AntiGovernment #PropertyOwnership #PandemicLegislation #PoliticalActivism #ChatterPodcast #RealEstate #GovernmentPolicy #Surveillance Timestamps: 00:00 Covid laws exploited to erode human rights. 05:21 NI public health laws need modernizing, concerns raised. 09:17 Authorized officers can bypass traditional legal procedures. 12:55 Court can bypass notice if deemed necessary. 15:44 Concerns about losing rights under global governance. 20:08 Government can seize, destroy property during emergencies. 23:17 One world government via public health protectionism. 25:37 Canadian bill allows property seizure during pandemics. 27:56 COVID-19 was initially perceived as highly dangerous. 31:24 Pandemic measures lacked evidence, flu deaths vanished. 34:53 Do politicians understand the consequences of actions? 38:26 Respect for Paul Froo's advocacy in assembly. 42:42 Generational farming challenges: retirement, financial concerns. https://x.com/KSCUBKEE https://consultations2.nidirect.gov.uk/doh-1/public-health-bill-consultation/ https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2215036620305642 https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/health/coronavirus/belfast-city-hall-protest-planned-this-weekend-over-controversial-public-health-bill/a387732254.html https://www.parl.ca/DocumentViewer/en/44-1/bill/C-293/third-reading ----------------------------------------------------- PRE-ORDER MY GAMESTOP BOOK - https://wen-moon.com Cast-Magic: The World's Most Powerful Content Tool (30% off with code Casting30) - https://get.castmagic.io/4ktvtch68y67 Make Professional Looking Clips In Seconds With Opus - https://www.opus.pro/?via=ee2b04 Buy Brexit: The Establishment Civil War - https://amzn.to/39XXVjq ----------------------------------------------------- You can listen to the show on Spotify, Apple, and all major platforms - https://chatterpodcast.podbean.com/ Watch Us On Odysee.com - https://odysee.com/$/invite/@TheJist:4 Join My Mailing List - https://stats.sender.net/forms/egBZYd/view Follow Me On Twitter - https://twitter.com/Give_Me_TheJist ----------------------------------------------------- Website - https://thejist.co.uk/ Music from Just Jim – https://soundcloud.com/justjim…

for 1 year siden54:21

54:21

Our latest episode of the Chatter podcast features the insightful Alex Varley Winter, an investigative journalist and ambassador for the Transparency Task Force (TTF). We delved into the depths of financial fraud, regulation failures, and the stark realities of the global economic system. 🌍💸#FinancialFraud #RegulationFailures #EconomicSystem 📜Financial Fraud & The Banking System: Alex kicks things off by uncovering shocking tales of financial fraud, including a jaw-dropping $200 billion case during the Libyan war where a conman faked ownership of a debt from Gaddafi's son. She explains, "The ease with which this fraudster created fake documents and got a court order is mind-boggling. It points to massive holes in both our financial and legal systems." 🔎💼Regulation Woes: On the subject of ineffective regulation, Josh doesn't hold back, highlighting regulatory capture: "It's absurd when regulators prioritize those with connections over the public's interest. It's a classic case of the fox guarding the henhouse!" They stress the need for cohesive action and stronger mandates to protect against such vulnerabilities. 🏦💣Banking System Critique: Josh takes a swipe at the banking system, criticizing its debt-driven mechanics. Alex supports this by referencing Larry Elford's "Farming Humans," which she says, "lays bare the extractive nature of banks, essentially farming us for profit." They both agree that returning to more inclusive economic practices from the 1960s and 70s is essential, as neoliberal policies have enriched only the top 1%. 🌐💬Offshoring & Tax Avoidance: The conversation unearths the dirty secrets of capital flight and offshore tax havens. Josh suggests, "Closing tax loopholes will accomplish more than simply raising taxes," emphasizing the significance of regulatory reforms over traditional tax policies. 👁️⚖️Issues in Housing & Agriculture: Alex doesn't shy away from highlighting the exploitative nature of London's housing market and the neglected plight of farmers. Discussing the high cost of living, she states, "When properties become mere money stores, they drive rent up and leave hard-working families out in the cold." They call for serious policy shifts to ensure housing is for living and farming is sustainable. 👨‍⚖️📚Financial Crime & Legal Loopholes: In a deep dive into financial crime, Alex exposes how a company fraudulently posed as a licensed entity to scam investors. She argues for adopting "security by design" and AI to preemptively spot and prevent such manipulations. "Mechanisms allowing these frauds are not just flaws, they are systemic failures," she passionately asserts. 🍃🌾Farming & Environmental Concerns: Touching on environmental sustainability, the discussion turns to innovative farming practices and alternative protein sources. Alex underscores the harsh reality: "Factory farms are environmental disasters. We need to innovate low-cost protein production to reduce our land footprint." 🔚Conclusion & Calls to Action: The episode rounds off with a compelling call to arms: integrate robust fraud prevention, close off tax loopholes, adopt sustainable practices, and demand economic systems that serve the people. Alex leaves us with a hopeful note: "Groups like the Transparency Task Force are essential, connecting victims and influencers to drive meaningful change." 💬#FinancialReform #EconomicJustice #SustainableFarming #TransparencyTaskForce Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro & Financial Fraud Case 07:15 - Regulation Woes & Regulatory Capture 14:32 - Banking System Critique & Economic Reflection 21:50 - Offshoring, Tax Avoidance & Trust in Finance 29:05 - Housing Market Exploitation 35:20 - Environmental Sustainability & Farming Innovations 42:35 - Legal Loopholes & Crime Prevention 48:50 - Call to Action: Towards a Just Economic System 💡Tune in to grasp the gravity of our economic system's inefficiencies and envision the steps we need to take tow…

In this episode of Chatter, I hosted James Li in a profound discussion regarding the Federal Reserve's policies, focusing on concerns about the government paying interest on money created by the Fed and the disproportionate benefits of bailout programs to large financial institutions. We explored issues such as the impacts of excessive money printing on inflation and the economy, the growing national debt, and the complex relationships between the Fed, big banks, and the military-industrial complex. The episode also delves into the GameStop stock saga, highlighting insider actions and market manipulations, as well as retail traders' impacts. We also touched on the health and political future of Joe Biden, the role of big pharma, the perspectives on GameStop’s valuation, and the potential need for monetary policy reforms. James Li spent some time working at major consulting firms like McKinsey and PwC, getting involved in a variety of interesting and relevant projects. Despite the high-profile work and valuable experience, he found the corporate environment wasn't for him. He ended up deleting his LinkedIn profile and started making videos while he was still employed, driven by his growing frustration with the job. Eventually, James realized he needed a change, especially after his time in Washington, D.C., and decided to leave the consulting world behind.

In this episode, host Josh Hamilton is joined by Chris Smaje, an author and small farm owner, to discuss a revolutionary shift in our food systems. Chris sheds light on the urgent need to move from volume-focused food production to more sustainable, local, and agroecological methods. He challenges the demonization of farmers and offshoring of food production, urging for government policies that balance environmental concerns with the necessities of food production. We cover a wide array of critical topics, from the historical changes in the UK's food self-sufficiency to the overproduction of global commodity crops and their impact on local agriculture. Chris advocates for supporting local food systems, fair compensation for farmers, and the importance of transitioning away from fossil fuels.

52:29

In this episode of Chatter, Josh Hamilton sits down with Ruben Hanssen to unravel the enigma surrounding traditional architecture versus modern skyscrapers. Ruben, known for his work in blending cultural heritage with modern-day urbanism, dives deep into the heart of European architectural appeal. The conversation circles around the striking project Brunenford and criticizes the failures of modernist urban design. 🏛️ #TraditionalArchitecture #UrbanPlanning #EuropeanCities 00:00 Intro 05:19 Started Dutch summer school, realized flaws in modern architecture, and started a Twitter channel. 07:40 Modernist urban planning and architecture focused on high-rise flats lacking community spaces, green areas, and aesthetic appeal. 10:05 People prefer old city parts for pictures, not modern. 15:30 Netherlands housing plan changed from modern to traditional to fit Dutch context. 17:41 New town with clear boundaries, intimate streets, minimal parking, Dutch style. 21:58 Charter of Athens advocated functional city planning and marginalized traditional architecture. 25:34 Markets influence architecture; traditional principles marginalized by market demand. 28:12 Cities are grids for fast travel, with shopping centers and cinemas. 33:26 Previous generations shaped by war, post-modernists influenced by new shiny buildings. Millennials and Gen Z seek experiences, value aesthetics over idealism. 37:18 Crayola is a inclusive development in Guatemala, designed for everyone. 39:30 Early phases of plan affordable, later phases cramped due to success. 42:08 Despite Soviet regime, little development in city center led to blank canvas for reconstruction, with opposition and enormous effort. 46:09 People want progress but prioritize traditional aesthetics over longevity. 48:48 Encourage mass support for change in architecture. 52:07 Assistance promised, expected this year. ----------------------------------------------------- PRE-ORDER MY GAMESTOP BOOK - https://wen-moon.com Cast-Magic: The World's Most Powerful Content Tool (30% off with code Casting30) - https://get.castmagic.io/4ktvtch68y67 Make Professional Looking Clips In Seconds With Opus - https://www.opus.pro/?via=ee2b04 Buy Brexit: The Establishment Civil War - https://amzn.to/39XXVjq ----------------------------------------------------- You can listen to the show on Spotify, Apple, and all major platforms - https://chatterpodcast.podbean.com/ Watch Us On Odysee.com - https://odysee.com/$/invite/@TheJist:4 Join My Mailing List - https://www.getrevue.co/profile/thejist Follow Me On Twitter - https://twitter.com/Give_Me_TheJist ----------------------------------------------------- Website - https://thejist.co.uk/ Music from Just Jim – https://soundcloud.com/justjim…

Father Emmanuel Lemelson is a thoughtful and reflective leader with a deep understanding of Christian teachings regarding wealth and finance. Historically, Christians avoided the practice of usury, viewing it as contrary to their faith. However, Father Lemelson acknowledges that today's Christians, across the spectrum, are involved in capital markets, both directly and indirectly. He contemplates the moral complexities of such involvement and reflects on the saying that the love of money is the root of all evil, expressing a need for discernment in these matters. His insights offer a bridge between traditional values and contemporary financial practices. Rev. Fr. Emmanuel Lemelson is a Greek Orthodox priest, activist investor, and creator of The Fr. Emmanuel Lemelson Podcast, which reveals the darkest corners of government, Wall Street, and culture with commentary from an Orthodox Christian perspective. https://linktr.ee/emmanuellemelson https://x.com/Lemelson https://lemelsoncapital.com/about/ 00:00 - Introduction and Denial of Evil 10:15 - GameStop Financial Performance and Market Manipulation 21:30 - Retail Investors and Market Speculation 32:45 - Ethical Concerns in the Financial Sector 44:20 - Moral Decline and Societal Shifts 53:10 - Father Lemelson’s Legal Battle with the SEC 1:04:00 - Closing Thoughts and Book Promotion ----------------------------------------------------- PRE-ORDER MY GAMESTOP BOOK - https://wen-moon.com Cast-Magic: The World's Most Powerful Content Tool (30% off with code Casting30) - https://get.castmagic.io/4ktvtch68y67 Make Professional Looking Clips In Seconds With Opus - https://www.opus.pro/?via=ee2b04 Buy Brexit: The Establishment Civil War - https://amzn.to/39XXVjq ----------------------------------------------------- You can listen to the show on Spotify, Apple, and all major platforms - https://chatterpodcast.podbean.com/ Watch Us On Odysee.com - https://odysee.com/$/invite/@TheJist:4 Join My Mailing List - https://www.getrevue.co/profile/thejist Follow Me On Twitter - https://twitter.com/Give_Me_TheJist ----------------------------------------------------- Website - https://thejist.co.uk/ Music from Just Jim – https://soundcloud.com/justjim…

Matt Kennard is an investigative journalist and author renowned for his incisive reporting on global power structures. His career spans several influential years, predominantly during his tenure at the Financial Times, where his assignments took him across the United States—New York and Washington, D.C.—and around the globe, including Haiti, Bolivia, Turkey, and Palestine. Through his extensive on-ground investigations, Kennard uncovered a pervasive yet largely unspoken truth: the existence of a U.S. empire that subtly governs international affairs. Despite its significant influence, this concept remains conspicuously absent from mainstream media discourse, notably in esteemed publications like the Financial Times. Kennard’s work seeks to illuminate this invisible empire, challenging readers and audiences to recognize and confront the underlying dynamics shaping our world.
