  • Excellent (with a catch)

    Superb podcast, always informative, thought-provoking, and persuasive. I only wonder why there is so little criticism of China, and even Russia to some extent.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Canada's Trump election: Sleazy politics amid US tariffs & annexation threats
Q: What do you find most remarkable about this election?
The circumstances in which the election is occurring are historic due to rapid changes in power distribution globally.
Can Donald Trump really end the Ukraine war?
Q: What will the negotiations produce?
It's going to be tough to achieve a ceasefire as the Russians have determined not to accept anything that doesn't address their core security concerns.
The politics of gold: Economist Michael Hudson explains why gold's price is rising so much
Q: Michael, that relationship has now ended and it's broken. Why do you think that is?
I don't think there's a causal relationship there at all. The real problem is the US balance of payments deficit.
The politics of gold: Economist Michael Hudson explains why gold's price is rising so much
Q: So why do you think we've seen this massive shift, the tripling of the price of gold in the past seven years?
Well, we've been talking about how the international financial system works and the increasing desire for countries to de-dollarize.
Trump's tariffs could cause huge global crisis, warns economist Michael Hudson
Q: What do you think will break or happen here with these economic strategies?
Hudson expresses that lowering the dollar's exchange rate won't help, and that the U.S. has become a failed industrial economy, leading to potential inflation and corporate layoffs without achieving re-industrialization.
