I wish I would've gone to something like this earlier. Can't wait to see you there 👉 https://go.1markmoss.com/mmyt3 There's the Thanksgiving story, you know, and then there's a major part of the story that you don't. And now, for 28 years, on Thanksgiving Day, radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh, he read part of this Thanksgiving story. It's been about four years since he's died. And I think it's time for me to bring it back, because most people have no idea how close the pilgrims came to failing. And the reason why is nothing like the version that you learned in school. And whether you live in America or you live in some other country. This story matters because every nation rises and collapses on the same principle that the pilgrims discovered out of sheer desperation. Now, what happened next didn't just save this starving settlement.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"They literally CAN'T let a recession happen - and I'm about to show you the mathematical proof that changes everything you think you know about what's coming next. See, everyone's been waiting for the crash for two years now... defensively positioned, sitting in cash, missing out - but what if I told you the Fed is “TRAPPED” ... in a $35 trillion dollar corner where allowing a recession would collapse the entire system?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

CJ Konstantinos, founder of People’s Reserve, joins to explore why the U.S. dollar is trapped in a debt death spiral and why Bitcoin isn’t a competitor to the dollar but its necessary complement. From the dollar’s role as a medium of exchange to Bitcoin’s design as engineered money and absolute digital scarcity, CJ explains how pairing the two could extend the life of the dollar while creating a foundation for sound capital. Drawing from his own experience of buying a home with 100 bitcoin, he unpacks the painful lessons of opportunity cost and why holders need tools to unlock purchasing power without selling their BTC.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Aleks Svetski, author of The Bushido of Bitcoin and entrepreneur behind new ventures like Atlantis, returns to explore why capital alone isn’t enough — and why character, virtue, and community must stand alongside money to build a meaningful future. From Bitcoin’s role as a foundation of sound capital to the need for beauty, excellence, and integrity, Aleks unpacks how civilization risks turning into a strip mall when we optimize only for profit. In this conversation, we dive into the balance of capital and character, the rise of borderless living, and the evolution from social networks into engagement farms. Aleks explains why algorithms and cheap capital erode society, and how projects like Atlantis aim to rebuild authentic community in the real world. We also discuss the future of decentralized identity with Noster, the bifurcation of society into creators and consumers, and why this era could mark the most transformative shift in human civilization in centuries.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Parker Lewis, renowned Bitcoin thinker and author of the Gradually, Then Suddenly series, joins us to break down why the real economy is broken — and how Bitcoin offers the only viable escape from a system doomed by money printing and ever-growing debt. From the mechanics of volatility to the inevitability of credit collapse, Parker explains why Bitcoin’s fixed supply is the ultimate safeguard for purchasing power, and why most people misunderstand the problem it solves. In this episode, we dig into why money printing distorts price signals, destroys savings, and forces people into imperfect hedges. Parker outlines his three-part framework for understanding Bitcoin: recognizing the problem (monetary debasement), grasping the fundamentals (fixed supply and trustless enforcement), and dismantling common misconceptions (volatility, copyability, criminal use). We explore stablecoins, the “Genius Act,” regulatory capture, and why shifting deck chairs in the dollar system can’t fix the underlying math of debt vs. money supply.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
