Ben’s reporting is top tier, always backed by citation. He’s a breath of fresh air in a world full of right wing pro capitalist media and he provides sources and down to earth journalism grounded in reality.
The guests he has on, especially Michael Hudson, are very informative.
Very grateful for his journalism and creating this news outlet.
Thank you Ben!
After listening to this podcast for 5 minutes it’s apparent that Ben is an anti-American hack. He should go live in one of the countries he holds in such high regard. Don’t waste your time.
A review claims they’re “keeping it real” by making false claims about China. They think they’re “keeping it real” by repeating western propaganda in the vein of inherently chauvinistic (not to mention sinophobic) misinformation.

A contrarian, academically rigorous take on global economics and geopolitics framed around macro trends, financial markets, and power shifts among the US, China, and other major actors. Episodes frequently critique macro policy, corporate influence, and energy security, often linking Wall Street, tech titans, and geopolitical risk to everyday financial outcomes like pensions and investment strategies. Noteworthy is the host's willingness to challenge mainstream narratives with detailed data, historical context, and sourcing, making it potentially valuable for listeners who want a critical, multilateral view of global affairs and economic policy.
