Invest Like a Billionaire - The alternative investments & strategies billionaires use to grow wealth
Nobody predicted 2008. Nobody predicted COVID. And whatever causes the next market crisis probably won't be what investors expect.That's what makes today's environment so challenging. Just a few months ago, markets were expecting rate cuts and easing inflation. Now oil prices are surging, treasury yields are rising, and some analysts are drawing comparisons to the inflationary pressures of the 1970s.In this episode of Invest Like A Billionaire, Bob Fraser, Ben Fraser, and Ellis Hammond break down the biggest economic shifts happening right now, from energy markets and inflation to AI-driven productivity, real estate, private credit, and the opportunities they see emerging in an increasingly uncertain landscape.Have more questions, or want more resources like a tax calculator?

Did you know that Star Wars almost started a war in real life, over a sand crawler model? Would the film have been so wildly successful if someone else had been cast in the role of Han Solo, such as – let's say – Christopher Walken? How would a band today be received if their drug use was so integral to their music, that they considered thanking their dealer in the liner notes? And let's take that iPhone from your pocket and compare it to the speed of an Apple II computer in 1977, which was 3,000 times slower. Join us as we explore revolutionary cultural shifts in the late 70s, and how these phenomena have evolved in the last four decades.

In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan reveals that Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has reportedly offered his resignation, admitting the IRGC, not the civilian government, is now firmly in control of Iran and its stalled peace talks with President Trump. Bryan tracks satellite images showing Iran using the ceasefire to dig out buried missiles and drones, a US Hellfire strike on a cargo ship running the naval blockade, and warnings from Chevron, Exxon, and Aramco that global oil supplies could hit a panic-buying breaking point in just two to three weeks, with prices potentially spiking past $150 a barrel. He also covers Israel's deepest push into Lebanon in 25 years and the capture of the Crusades-era Beaufort Castle, then makes the case that Trump's best play now is a bare-bones Iran deal so he can pivot to the bigger threat at home: an Islamo-Marxist Democrat movement organizing violent ICE protests with funding from Roy Singham and George Soros. Plus, Bryan unpacks the concept of Taqiyya and what it means for vetting figures like Zohran Mamdani, a screwworm case creeping toward Texas cattle country, a promising new blood test that distinguishes four forms of dementia with 92% accuracy, and surprising research on how multiple AI chatbots can fact-check each other to deliver better medical answers.

The price of oil has gone up significantly since late February, when the US invaded Iran. And when oil prices see a crazy rise, it makes other sources of energy look more attractive. But we've been here before - back in the 1970s, oil prices skyrocketed, and people started to turn to alternative or renewable energy sources. But, for a few reasons, it didn't stick. Marketplace's Stephanie Hughes explores why.

On this episode, Bob Ryan and Gary Tanguay reminisce about the legendary Wilt Chamberlain. Bob tells the story of Wilt's fallout with Lakers head coach Butch van Breda Kolff in 1969, which could have cost the Lakers a championship. He then recalls the famous series vs the Knicks in the 1970 Finals, where Willis Reed famously returned from injury for Game 7 and fired up the Madison Square Garden faithful who saw their team win the championship for the first time, thanks to an incredible performance from Walt Frazier. Finally, Bob and Gary remember Wilt as a person, including his relationship with Bill Russell. The Bob Ryan & Jeff Goodman NBA Podcast on CLNS is Powered by:

Voice Of Costume - Creating Character through Costume Design
A 1970s spy thriller shouldn't look gray—and Anastasia Magoutas explains how color, character, and costume rewrite the Cold War. Costume designer Anastasia Magoutas joins Voice of Costume to discuss designing PONIES for Peacock, starring Emilia Clarke and Haley Lu Richardson, and how she built a vibrant, stylish, emotionally grounded 1970s spy world. Raised in Queens by Greek immigrant parents, Anastasia shares how curiosity, theater, art school, NYU, and hands-on collaboration shaped her path from acting and directing into costume design. She breaks down the creative philosophy behind the show: rejecting the flat "gray Soviet filter" often used in Cold War stories and instead creating a world full of color, humor, danger, aspiration, and real people living complicated lives. Anastasia dives into sourcing vintage 1970s fashion, using LA and European costume houses, building hero coats, duplicating key garments for stunts, and finding the difference between American casual cool and European vintage elegance. The episode also explores the contrast between Bea and Twyla—one precise, polished, and controlled; the other rebellious, chaotic, and "the right kind of wrong." Anastasia shares how trust, long-term creative relationships, fear, perfectionism, and community helped her deliver a costume world that feels cinematic, character-driven, and unforgettable. The "Voice of Costume" is the first podcast created between working costume designers sharing stories, inspiration, struggles, and insights into the creative career of costume design. A behind-the-scenes podcast to showcase the voices of Costume Designers around the world. Listen in on this inspirational, one-on-one conversation with Catherine Baumgardner.

It feels like our series on the top Formula 1 drivers of each keeps decade gets harder. More races and drivers make the selection tougher and the 1970s is no exception. As usual, we've considered many factors, including level of success, machinery at their disposal, longevity and how highly the drivers were rated by their contemporaries. Success outside the relevant decade is not considered. Perhaps the greatest absentee in this list is four-time 1970s GP winner Gilles Villeneuve. He was undoubtedly one of the best drivers by the end of the decade but was only just getting into his stride as the 1970s came to an end – be sure to check out our upcoming 1980s list if you're a fan of the great French-Canadian… Learn more about your ad choices.

A happenstance introduction to Charles Manson. Assassination attempts against President Ford, a man who was never elected to the vice presidency or presidency. And the kidnapping of a college student and newspaper heiress, 19-year-old Patty Hearst, that rocked the nation. Following Nixon's resignation and the end of the Vietnam war, the country was in freefall. When, and how, did the U.S. begin to mend its wounds from political scandal and years of a grueling war? And what role did an unconventional campaign and powerful grassroots efforts have, regarding a certain peanut farmer who would later become president?
In this episode, we explore the rise and fall of Rolf Harris — from his beginnings in Perth during the Great Depression to becoming one of the most recognisable entertainers in Britain and across the Commonwealth.Join Holly and Matthew as they follow Harris through the early days of television, novelty music, children's entertainment, painting, the wobble board, and the strange cultural landscape of post-war Britain, examining how an Australian performer became a trusted household figure for generations of audiences.But alongside that public image ran a much darker story.This episode also examines the allegations, convictions, and testimonies that emerged later in Harris's life, including the broader context of Britain's entertainment industry, Operation Yewtree, and the culture that allowed powerful figures to avoid scrutiny for decades.This episode contains discussion of child sexual abuse, grooming, and exploitation.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/weird-crap-in-australia--2968350/support.

Roger Fires is a production designer—”Nobody”, “Violent Night”, “Psycho Killer”—and one of the films he loves most is William Friedkin's “The Exorcist” (1973). He first encountered it not in a theater but through a wall as a child in Brazil, told not to watch and so he listened in the dark. That experience kept him away for nearly twenty years. At thirty he finally watched it and fell completely in love—and the specificity of that arc is what makes this conversation worth your time.Andy and Pete dig into what Roger calls the “unnoticeably good” standard: the refrigerated set, the spatial geometry, the window that marks two deaths and carries the film's entire theological argument. They cover what makes Friedkin's approach—dread over spectacle, religious drama over horror movie—still impossible to replicate, and Roger talks about his work on “Psycho Killer” and the “Scrubs” reboot along the way.
For his follow up to MASH, Robert Altman decided to bring us all… this! The wonderfully bizarre Brewster McCloud of course stars the late great Bud Cort in the title role, but that's hardly the only thing the movie has to recommend it. It bursts at the seams so full of ideas it will make even the most tuned in acid head do a double take. We hope you enjoy our discussion on this one of a kind cinematic experience. Topics include: Where's Waldo, the history of the Houston Astrodome, and Michael Murphy's singular brand of onscreen blandness.

A cover up that cost Nixon's presidency, a pardon that cost Gerald R. Ford his election, and a friendship dating back to the 1940s. It was the first time a President had been impeached, and the only time in U.S. history that a President resigned from office. The betrayal of the public's trust reverberated well beyond Nixon's presidency in a time of economic turmoil, but what happened following Nixon's departure from office? How did the new Ford administration attempt to gain control over the rising unemployment and double-digit inflation? Join us as we learn about how this confluence of events created economic instability, unhappiness, and impacted the mood of the country in 1974.

Craig Unger explains the infrastructure of the alleged treason, focusing on the Safari Club, a group of high-level intelligence officials who conducted "off-the-books" operations after the CIA faced congressional crackdowns in the 1970s. Bill Casey utilized this shadow network, employing his close friend John Shaheen as a "cutout" to facilitate meetings with Iranian arms dealers without attracting media attention. Unger reveals that the Hashemi brothers, who were ostensibly helping the Carter administration negotiate for the hostages, were actually double agents working for Casey. This covert channel was further supported by Israeli military intelligence (Aman), which confirmed that source Ari Ben-Menashe was indeed an operative and that a secret arms channel existed between Israel and Iran. Unger argues that Israel's participation in sabotaging the American election was a significant secret they went to great lengths to hide. The operation reportedly involved money laundering through front businesses to finance the illegal arms deals. (5/8)1920 BUSHEHR

EPYSODE 82: Crabby Appleton by Crabby Appleton. Guest: Michael Fennelly. Additional commentary by Uncle Herff. This week we spin the self-titled debut from Crabby Appleton, a record that fused pop instincts with a tougher, guitar-driven edge. Featuring exclusive commentary from Michael Fennelly, we trace the band's evolution from the more pop ambitions he mined while with The Millennium to the leaner rock sound of this band. Anchored by the hit single “Go Back,” Crabby Appleton had all the ingredients of a breakout: memorable melodies, tight songwriting, and radio-friendly energy. So why didn't it last? Fennelly reflects on the album's creation and the band's attempt to carve out their identity. Crabby Appleton remains a compelling and often overlooked piece of early '70s pop-rock history. I hope you dig it as much as I do. - Farmer John ===CONNECT & SUPPORT=== Transport yourself into the realm of grooviness by supporting us on Patreon for as little as $2/month using this link --> patreon.com/FarmerJohnMusic Use this link to follow us on Facebook --> https://www.facebook.com/farmerjohnmusic/ Use this link to follow us on Instagram --> https://www.instagram.com/vinylrelics/ Use this link to follow us on TikTok --> https://www.tiktok.com/@vinylrelicspodcast Use this link to follow us on BlueSky --> https://bsky.app/profile/farmerjohnmusic.bsky.social And find us on X @VinylRelicsPod Email me @ farmerjohnmusic@gmail.com ===THE MUSIC=== Songs used in this Epysode, in order of appearance.

The right to privacy, a 22-year-old who went by the pseudonym “Jane Roe,” and one of the most famous court cases in United States history. Join us as we learn what happened leading up to Roe v. Wade, the fate of Norma McCorvey following the Supreme Court's ruling, and how this piece of history echoes in the present day. That is not the only ghost of 1973 history that is still relevant, though. If you're curious about how an oil embargo in the 70s impacts today's gas prices and oil reserves, and you'd like to better understand a piece of Israel's history and how it ties into present-day events, you're in the right place.

Deep Throat, Operation Gemstone, two valiant reporters, and a secret 30 years in the making. Watergate was not a single scandal, but rather an avalanche of events and co-conspirators, all engaged in corruption to keep President Nixon in office. The stakes were so high that Nixon's Special Security Advisor, G. Gordon Liddy, lived under fear of being assassinated, and the wife of Nixon's Campaign Director & Attorney General was drugged and held captive in a hotel room to keep her silent. What was the “smoking gun” that led to the toppling of this enterprise? Was it the tapes Nixon secretly recorded, and the 18-minute gap, that ultimately pushed Nixon to be the first and only President to resign?

"The week that changed the world.” Was it a chance encounter at the World Tennis Championship in 1971, “Panda diplomacy” between the U.S. and Communist China, or a break-in at the Democratic National Headquarters by a team of 5 burglars, that drastically altered the trajectory of world history? It was around this time that the Women's Equity Action League also filed one of the farthest-reaching Class Action lawsuits, leading to President Nixon signing the Education Act into law. Join us as we talk about the origins of the Watergate scandal, the landslide victory that kept Nixon in office, and the establishment of Title IX.
