    Poll his followers about speech freedom? Check. Buy massive stake in the company? Check. Get a seat on the BOD? Check. This ain't about an edit button. Roughly 24 hours after disclosing that he has largest owner of Twitter stock, Elon Musk now as a seat at the table by joining the board of directors. And it's still just Tuesday. Will it work? I don't know. We'll find out. But I'm not viewing Elon's actions regarding Twitter with a cynical view. I'm hopeful this is a turning point. I jumped on the mic for a new episode of the Trend is Your Friend to dive a little deeper on what all of this could mean.

He's a good friend of the podcast and he dropped in for his fourth appearance on the Trend is Your Friend. In this episode, we get Phil's take on the push to censor Joe Rogan's recent podcast episodes about COVID, the Canadian trucker convoy and Trudeau's response, Jerome Powell's ability to raise interest rates, and the place for gold and bitcoin in an investment portfolio.

It's called "Subversion of America from Within" and it's a banger. Here's a quick preview: Here in the American public education system, we teach our children about World War I, the Great Depression, and World War II as if these events were unrelated, almost random. Why do we do this? Then, we wonder why the education system graduates elect fools and charlatans, and have zero understanding of the money system or Austrian business cycle. Perhaps that is exactly why government schools do it… If we taught them why everything happened, how it was all connected, can you imagine the cons exposed? I am pretty sure the last 50 years would look much better if we had.Phil Denniston via Peak Prosperity Like I said, it's a banger. Check it out!

    On Friday night, Dr. Robert Malone and Alex Berenson appeared on Fox News at the same time to discuss censorship in mainstream media and on social media. Things took a weird turn when Berenson took the opportunity, unprovoked, to jab at Malone's mRNA technology background and championing of Ivermectin. You can watch it here if you haven't seen it yet. I'm a fan of Alex but he was in the wrong in my view. In today's episode of The Trend is Your Friend, I'll get into why I think Berenson did what he did, why much of the reaction from his readers is justified, and also why wouldn't shouldn't let Malone off the hook for sneaking in an equally silly jab the following day. https://faybomb.substack.com/ --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/faybomb/support

    I've known John LaLoggia for a over a decade. We were college buddies back in the day. He and I are both millennials but we're older millennials. We've known each other long enough to remember the "poke" button on Facebook. We shared a lot of common interests at that time and it was great to reconnect with John in a one on one (kind of) setting to just have a real conversation. John recently released Sh*tty Jobs: The Guide to Surviving a Recession. When I finished it, I knew I had to get him on the show. He has a viewpoint that I think many people our age and younger can empathize with. In this conversation, we touched on why he finally decided to write the book, how people who are in bad work situations can cope, and what the future of the employer/employee relationship should look like in a successful business. I can tell you after reading the book, I can't think of anyone else I know personally who has experienced so many awful employment environments. Oh and he's also really funny! My hope is that his comedic timing and delivery both in the book and in this podcast episode can really help readers and listeners keep things in perspective even if they're struggling during tough times.
