1. HEART OF THE MATTER 1A. Record-Breaking Missionary Numbers — Pres. Oaks at New Mission Leader Seminar At the 2026 Seminar for New Mission Leaders (June 18–21, Provo MTC), President Dallin H. Oaks announced that the Church will soon have the largest number of full-time missionaries in its history, surpassing the current 87,000+ serving worldwide. The surge is driven by the first wave of 18-year-old sister missionaries (following the November policy change lowering the minimum age from 19) and the addition of 55 new missions in July, bringing the global total to 506. President Oaks outlined three characteristics defining the restored Church: (1) the fulness of doctrine (including eternal marriage between a man and a woman); (2) priesthood authority and keys; and (3) a unique testimony of Christ grounded in modern revelation and the First Vision. Sister Kristin Oaks also spoke, sharing six core truths missionaries teach.

New Hymn ‘Welcome Home’ — The Story Behind It Composer Andrea Brett explains how a 2017 encounter with Demetrius O’Neal — a recent convert serving as a greeter at a Spokane ward on a snowy Sunday morning — inspired her hymn ‘Welcome Home,’ now published in the new Hymns for Home and Church. Brett submitted 10 pieces when the global hymnbook was announced in 2018; this was the only one she’d written before the call. She received confirmation of its selection in February 2025, then had a full-circle moment when she and O’Neal sat near each other at the April 2025 General Conference as the Tabernacle Choir performed it. O’Neal’s name appears in the hymn’s tune name as a tribute. The hymn is now translated and sung globally. Source: Church Newsroom / Richie’s document 1C. Family History Records Are a ‘Sacred Thread’ — Elder Bragg at International Archivists Congress Elder Mark A. Bragg, General Authority Seventy and executive director of the Church’s Family History Department and FamilySearch International, was a keynote speaker at the III Congress of Archivists: Digital Archive Expo (DA-EXPO), held June 8–12 in Astana, Kazakhstan. He called family history records ‘the thin but sacred thread’ tying people together across generations, and argued that records are ‘in a very real sense, witnesses.’ Elder Bragg framed the digital revolution in genealogy in moral terms: for most of history, access to records was shaped by ‘proximity, resources and specialized knowledge,’ but today a record created in one place can be preserved in another, indexed in a third, and discovered by someone on the other side of the world. ‘The reach is astonishing. The speed is breathtaking. The possibilities are almost beyond measure.’ He also said that ‘access is an act of kindness’ — records only fulfill their divine purpose when they are found, understood, and used. His core message: preserving memory is an act of hope. ‘It says that the past is not dead to us and that the future deserves more than fragments.’ Source: Church News, June 17, 2026 Angle: Great ‘quiet but meaningful’ story — LDS family history going global and leveling the playing field for genealogy worldwide. 1D. America Gives — All 50 States Receive Food Donations The Church completed a milestone in its ‘America Gives’ initiative by delivering a shipping container of food to Hilo, Hawaii — marking all 50 states reached. The initiative aims to deliver 250 truckloads of food nationwide in 2026 to celebrate the U.S. 250th anniversary. In Hawaii, the food went to The Food Basket, distributed to 10 local nonprofits. Notably, 42% of residents on the island of Hawaii face food insecurity — the state’s highest rate. Rosie Rios, chair of America 250 and former U.S. Treasurer, praised the milestone. Local Methodist pastor Ted Lesnett said recipients will know ‘when they were hungry, someone cared.’ Source: Church Newsroom / Richie’s document 1E. Church Donates $250,000 NZD to Christchurch Anglican Cathedral Rebuild The Church announced a NZ$250,000 donation (June 19, 2026) toward the restoration of Christchurch’s iconic Anglican Cathedral — damaged in the February 2011 earthquake. Elder Peter F. Meurs (Pacific Area President) and Anglican Bishop Peter Carrell presided at the announcement. The donation comes as the project faces a $45M funding shortfall and an overall $219M budget. The Christchurch City Council has offered $15M contingent on government and Anglican Church matches. Notably, a New Zealand Buddhist community made a similar gift in 2023 — the LDS donation continues a cross-faith pattern of support for the heritage project.

Central America Humanitarian Blitz — 5 Projects, 500,000+ People In late May and early June 2026, the Church announced five humanitarian projects across Central America (with Sister J. Anette Dennis, First Counselor in the Relief Society General Presidency, representing the Church). Projects include: the ‘Windows of Light’ eyecare program in El Salvador (350,000+ screenings to date); safe water access for 250,000+ in Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua (with UNICEF); nearly 750 computers/tablets donated to 66 educational institutions in Guatemala; and medical equipment for the ‘La Mascota’ children’s hospital in Nicaragua.

Todd Christofferson: He offered the invocation at Becket’s Canterbury Medal Gala in Philadelphia (multifaith event celebrating religious liberty), alongside Elder Gary E. Stevenson and others. The group also visited the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall — fitting, ahead of America’s 250th. Christofferson reflected on D&C 101 and the Constitution’s purpose to protect ‘all flesh.’ From Philadelphia, he and Sister Christofferson traveled to Toronto, meeting 250+ missionaries in the Canada Toronto Mission weeks before it divides into three missions (Toronto West, Toronto East, and Montreal). He also spoke to hundreds of LDS youth, with one — Amelia Fischer — saying ‘no amount of words can describe how I felt tonight.’ Source: Richie’s document / Church Newsroom 2B. BYU Scholar Study: Religion Adds 7.6 Years to Life The BYU Wheatley Institute is releasing three reports analyzing 3,000 of the most scientifically rigorous studies (culled from 60,000+ papers by Duke University) on religion and health. Key findings: 33/34 studies show improved social health; 10/11 show improved mental health; 7/8 show improved physical health. Regular worshippers live an average of 7.6 years longer (up to 13.7 years longer for African Americans). A ‘landmark finding’: 256 studies show religion prevents/aids recovery from substance abuse (vs. 6 showing negative impact). Author Loren Marks recommends public health frameworks treat religious involvement like exercise recommendations. Source: Richie’s document 2C. Elder Soares Testifies in the Philippines Elder Ulisses Soares completed a two-week ministry in the Philippines (mid-May 2026), meeting with 600+ young single adults in Cebu, 450+ in Quezon City, and 340+ missionaries at the Philippines MTC. His recurring message: ‘His arms are extended to all of us.’ The Philippines has more than 905,000 Latter-day Saints — the Church’s fourth-largest national membership. Two new temples were also dedicated in the Philippines this month: the Davao Philippines Temple (Elder Renlund, May 3) and the Bacolod Philippines Temple (Elder Andersen, May 31). Source: Church Newsroom, June 17, 2026 3. CULTURE & CURIOSITIES 3A. LDS Author in Everyman’s Library — A First BYU biology and bioethics professor Steven L. Peck has reportedly become the first Latter-day Saint author included in the prestigious Everyman’s Library series (publishing canonical English fiction since 1906). His 2012 novella A Short Stay in Hell — a philosophical horror story about a Mormon man condemned to an afterlife library containing every possible book — went viral on BookTok and found a new audience. A literature historian noted: ‘No Mormon or Mormon-adjacent writer that I know of has ever been featured in this prestigious series.’ The Salt Lake Tribune covered the story, noting the irony that a theological horror story marks one of the most significant moments in LDS literary history.

The Sasine Family — 40 Countries Before Age 1 Keith and Chelsea Sasine, an LDS couple stationed in Germany (Keith is an Army oral surgeon), made history in November 2025 by taking their youngest daughter Mia to 40 countries before her first birthday (March–November 2025), using a Honda Odyssey for European road trips. The family of six (including Izzy, 10; Abby, 9; and John, 4) attends local wards wherever they travel — a faith anchor the couple says strengthened their testimony and taught their kids the importance of the Sabbath globally.

Why do so many people today feel lost, disconnected, and without purpose? In this episode of the WS Podcast, Wojciech sits down with Joe Barnard, minister at Holyrood Evangelical Church and author of "The Road Back to God", for a deep conversation about faith, meaning, masculinity, family, and the spiritual crisis of the modern world. Together, they explore why modern society often feels spiritually empty despite unprecedented technological progress and material comfort. This episode dives into: the growing loss of meaning and direction in modern culture the difference between knowledge and wisdom why many young men feel lost today the impact of consumerism, dating apps, and technology on relationships and identity the importance of family, marriage, and fatherhood the role of faith, transcendence, and spiritual longing in human life Joe explains how modern culture has become increasingly “disenchanted,” reducing reality to material explanations while neglecting deeper human needs for purpose, connection, and transcendence. The conversation also explores: the concept of sin as self-destruction and missing the aim why ancient wisdom traditions still matter the importance of hope and long-term thinking how spiritual practices and meaningful relationships can restore direction and fulfillment Drawing from philosophy, Christianity, psychology, and personal experience, this episode challenges listeners to rethink what truly matters - and whether modern society has lost touch with deeper truths about human nature.

What if the reality you experience isn't fixed, but shaped by awareness itself? In this episode of the WS Podcast, Woj sits down with Chris, author of The Man on the Endless Stair, for a deep and thought-provoking conversation on consciousness, trauma, meaning, and the nature of reality. Chris shares his journey from strict religious upbringing to atheism, and eventually into a deeper exploration of quantum physics, Buddhism, and analytic idealism - challenging the idea that reality is purely material. We explore: how trauma and personal responsibility shape your life the concept of awareness observing thoughts, rather than being them what Buddhism means by “emptiness” and interdependence how quantum physics challenges our understanding of reality why ambition and success may not bring fulfilment Chris also shares how practices like meditation and Jiu-Jitsu helped him move from control and resistance to flow, presence, and adaptability. This conversation dives into some of the biggest questions: What is awareness? Is reality objective or participatory? And how can understanding this change the way you live? Whether you're interested in philosophy, spirituality, psychology, or personal growth, this episode offers a powerful perspective on what it means to be human.

VOV1 - Hạ viện Mỹ do đảng Cộng hòa kiểm soát vừa thông qua nghị quyết yêu cầu Tổng thống Donald Trump chấm dứt sự tham gia gia của quân đội Mỹ trong cuộc xung đột với Iran. Kết quả phản ánh mối lo ngại ngày càng tăng ngay trong nội bộ đảng Cộng hoà về cuộc xung đột chưa hồi kết kéo dài 3 tháng qua"Nghị quyết đồng thời số 86 của Hạ viện yêu cầu Tổng thống, theo Điều 5C của Nghị quyết về Quyền lực chiến tranh, rút lực lượng vũ trang Mỹ khỏi các hoạt động quân sự với Iran.”Nghị quyết được thông qua với tỷ lệ 215 phiếu thuận và 208 phiếu chống. Bốn nghị sĩ Cộng hòa là Tom Barrett, Warren Davidson, Brian Fitzpatrick và Thomas Massie đã bỏ phiếu cùng các nghị sĩ Dân chủ để ủng hộ văn bản yêu cầu Tổng thống rút lực lượng vũ trang Mỹ khỏi các hành động quân sự tại Iran trừ khi Quốc hội tuyên chiến hoặc cho phép sử dụng vũ lực.Dù nghị quyết chủ yếu mang ý nghĩa biểu tượng do vẫn cần được Thượng viện thông qua và có thể đối mặt với sự phản đối từ Nhà Trắng, kết quả bỏ phiếu cho thấy sự chia rẽ ngày càng rõ nét trong Quốc hội Mỹ về cách chính quyền Tổng thống Donald Trump xử lý cuộc xung đột. Đây cũng là lần đầu tiên Hạ viện thông qua một nghị quyết như vậy sau nhiều nỗ lực bất thành trước đó.Trong khi đó, Mỹ và Iran tiếp tục đưa ra những đánh giá trái ngược về triển vọng chấm dứt xung đột. Tổng thống Donald Trump hôm qua bày tỏ sự lạc quan về tiến trình đàm phán, cho rằng các cuộc tiếp xúc với Iran đang diễn ra tích cực và có thể sớm đạt được bước đột phá. “Chúng tôi đã có những hành động mạnh mẽ vì những lý do nhất định và Iran đã đáp trả. Tuy nhiên, tôi nghe nói các cuộc đàm phán đang diễn ra rất tốt, thực sự rất tốt. Tất nhiên, chưa ai có thể chắc chắn điều gì sẽ xảy ra, nhưng nếu có đột phá thì điều đó có thể diễn ra ngay trong cuối tuần này.”Trái với đánh giá của Washington, Ngoại trưởng Iran Abbas Araghchi cho biết hiện không có “tiến triển đáng kể” nào trong các cuộc đàm phán với Mỹ trong những ngày gần đây, dù hai bên vẫn duy trì các kênh liên lạc gián tiếp. Nhà ngoại giao hàng đầu Iran đồng thời tái khẳng định lập trường của nước này rằng bất kỳ thỏa thuận ngừng bắn nào cũng phải bao gồm Lebanon. Theo ông, cuộc chiến chỉ có thể kết thúc khi giao tranh tại Lebanon chấm dứt và quân đội Israel rút khỏi lãnh thổ nước này.Trong một diễn biến liên quan đáng chú ý, Israel và Lebanon cùng ngày tuyên bố gia hạn thỏa thuận ngừng bắn hiện có, với điều kiện Hezbollah chấm dứt các hoạt động quân sự tại miền nam Lebanon. Thỏa thuận do Mỹ làm trung gian cũng đề xuất thiết lập các khu vực an ninh do quân đội Lebanon kiểm soát hoàn toàn. Tuy nhiên, triển vọng đạt được một lệnh ngừng bắn lâu dài vẫn còn nhiều thách thức khi các cuộc không kích và giao tranh tiếp tục diễn ra tại nhiều khu vực của Lebanon.Tổng thư ký Antonio Guterres hôm qua bày tỏ lo ngại trước những diễn biến căng thẳng trên thực địa. Ông kêu gọi các bên kiềm chế, tông trọng chủ quyền và toàn vẹn lãnh thổ của nhau. Người phát ngôn của Tổng thư ký Liên hợp quốc Antonio Guterres, ông Stephane Dujarric cho biết: “Tổng thư ký Liên hợp quốc Antonio Guterres vô cùng quan ngại trước các báo cáo về thương vong dân sự. Ông kêu gọi tất cả các bên kiềm chế tối đa và tránh bất kỳ sự leo thang nào nữa có nguy cơ làm suy yếu các nỗ lực ngoại giao đang diễn ra. Chủ quyền và toàn vẹn lãnh thổ của tất cả các quốc gia phải được tôn trọng đầy đủ. Tổng thư ký Liên hợp quốc tái khẳng định sự ủng hộ hoàn toàn đối với tất cả các nỗ lực hòa giải đang diễn ra và kêu gọi các bên tham gia một cách xây dựng, thiện chí vào các sáng kiến ngoại giao.”Trong bối cảnh giao tranh tiếp diễn, giá năng lượng thế giới tăng cao và nguy cơ bất ổn kinh tế lan rộng, áp lực đối với cả Mỹ và Iran trong việc tìm kiếm một giải pháp ngoại giao cho cuộc xung đột đang ngày càng gia tăng./.Thu Hoài/VOV1Tổng thống Mỹ Donald Trump phát biểu tại Nhà Trắng ngày 3.6.2026 ẢNH: REUTERS

THE SECRETS TO DAILY FOLLOWING THE HOLY SPIRIT 1 Thessalonians 5:23–24 May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 The one who calls you is faithful, and HE WILL DO IT (NIV) Titus 3:5 he saved us, not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He washed away our sins, giving us a new birth and new life THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT. (NIV) Galatians 3:3 Are you so foolish? After beginning by means of the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by means of the flesh? (NIV) 6 STEPS TO BEING SPIRIT LED INSTEAD OF FLESH LED Romans 8:14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. (ESV) 1. BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT STARTS FROM FREEDOM, NOT CONDEMNATION Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. (ESV) 2. BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT IS ABOUT SURRENDERING MORE, NOT STRIVING MORE Romans 8:3–4 For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh BUT ACCORDING TO THE SPIRIT. (ESV) 2 Corinthians 3:18 And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from ONE DEGREE OF GLORY TO ANOTHER. For THIS COMES FROM the Lord who is the Spirit. (ESV) 3. BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT INVOLVES RENEWING YOUR MIND Romans 8:5–6 For those who live according to the flesh set their MINDS on the things of the flesh, but those who LIVE ACCORDING TO THE SPIRIT set their MINDS on the things of the Spirit. 6 For to set the MIND on the flesh is death, but to set the MIND on the Spirit is life and peace. (ESV) Ephesians 4:23 Instead, LET THE SPIRIT RENEW YOUR THOUGHTS AND ATTITUDES. (NLT) 4. BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT INVOLVES CRUCIFYING YOUR FLESH Romans 8:7–8 For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God’s law; indeed, it cannot. 8 Those who are in the FLESH cannot please God. (ESV) Galatians 5:16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. (ESV) Romans 8:13 For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. (ESV) 5. BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT REQUIRES LEARNING TO FOLLOW THE SPIRIT’S LEADING Romans 8:9–14 You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. 10 But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the SPIRIT GIVES LIFE because of righteousness. 11 And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also GIVE LIFE to your mortal bodies because of his SPIRIT who lives in you. 12 Therefore, brothers and sisters, we have an obligation—but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it. 13 For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the SPIRIT you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live. 14 For those who are LED BY THE SPIRIT of God are the children of God. (NIV) Galatians 5:25 If we LIVE BY THE SPIRIT, let us also keep in step with the Spirit. (ESV) 5A.

THE HOLY SPIRIT’S VOICE WILL RESTRAIN YOU Acts 16:6–7 And they went through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been FORBIDDEN by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia. 7 And when they had come up to Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus DID NOT allow them. (ESV) 5E.

THE SECRETS TO DAILY FOLLOWING THE HOLY SPIRIT 1 Thessalonians 5:23–24 May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 The one who calls you is faithful, and HE WILL DO IT (NIV) Titus 3:5 he saved us, not because of the righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He washed away our sins, giving us a new birth and new life THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT. (NIV) Galatians 3:3 Are you so foolish? After beginning by means of the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by means of the flesh? (NIV) 6 STEPS TO BEING SPIRIT LED INSTEAD OF FLESH LED Romans 8:14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. (ESV) 1. BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT STARTS FROM FREEDOM, NOT CONDEMNATION Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. (ESV) 2. BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT IS ABOUT SURRENDERING MORE, NOT STRIVING MORE Romans 8:3–4 For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh BUT ACCORDING TO THE SPIRIT. (ESV) 2 Corinthians 3:18 And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from ONE DEGREE OF GLORY TO ANOTHER. For THIS COMES FROM the Lord who is the Spirit. (ESV) 3. BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT INVOLVES RENEWING YOUR MIND Romans 8:5–6 For those who live according to the flesh set their MINDS on the things of the flesh, but those who LIVE ACCORDING TO THE SPIRIT set their MINDS on the things of the Spirit. 6 For to set the MIND on the flesh is death, but to set the MIND on the Spirit is life and peace. (ESV) Ephesians 4:23 Instead, LET THE SPIRIT RENEW YOUR THOUGHTS AND ATTITUDES. (NLT) 4. BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT INVOLVES CRUCIFYING YOUR FLESH Romans 8:7–8 For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God’s law; indeed, it cannot. 8 Those who are in the FLESH cannot please God. (ESV) Galatians 5:16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. (ESV) Romans 8:13 For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. (ESV) 5. BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT REQUIRES LEARNING TO FOLLOW THE SPIRIT’S LEADING Romans 8:9–14 You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. 10 But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the SPIRIT GIVES LIFE because of righteousness. 11 And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also GIVE LIFE to your mortal bodies because of his SPIRIT who lives in you. 12 Therefore, brothers and sisters, we have an obligation—but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it. 13 For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the SPIRIT you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live. 14 For those who are LED BY THE SPIRIT of God are the children of God. (NIV) Galatians 5:25 If we LIVE BY THE SPIRIT, let us also keep in step with the Spirit. (ESV) 5A. YOU FOLLOW THE SPIRIT BY LEARNING HIS VOICE John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.

Is the modern money system fundamentally broken and what does that mean for your future? In this episode of the WS Podcast, we break down the key ideas from "Broken Money" by Lyn Alden, exploring how money works, why inflation exists, and who truly benefits from the current financial system. We dive into the reality of a debt-based monetary system, where continuous expansion of money and credit is not a flaw, but a structural necessity. This episode explains: how fractional reserve banking actually works why the system depends on endless debt and monetary expansion how inflation acts as a hidden tax the Cantillon Effect and why not everyone is affected equally how money has evolved as a technology over time Through simple analogies and real-world examples, we explore how currency debasement impacts everyday people, especially wage earners and savers, while benefiting those closest to the source of money creation. The episode also challenges you to think deeper: If nothing stops this system, what does “winning” actually look like? Who should control the evolution of money? And how can individuals protect themselves in a system built on expansion? If you want to understand how money really works, why inequality is rising, and how to navigate the future, this episode is essential listening. All the love, all the power, all of the time!

Is money really the same as wealth—or have we misunderstood it completely? In this episode of the WS Podcast, Wojciech Salski breaks down the key ideas from Capital Offense by Paul Musson, exploring the true nature of money, the flaws of GDP, and why our current financial system may be fundamentally broken. Most people think of money as wealth. But what if money is just a tool - a claim on real goods and services - rather than value itself? We explore: the critical difference between money and real wealth why creating money without production leads to inflation how the current credit-based system distorts the economy why GDP may give a false picture of economic growth how sound money can protect savings and encourage long-term thinking This episode challenges the way we think about finance, showing how policies that aim to stimulate growth may actually devalue savings, increase inequality, and misallocate capital. We also discuss how sound money systems - historically linked to assets like gold and increasingly to Bitcoin - can act as a disciplining force, limiting excessive money creation and encouraging real value creation. If you want to understand how money really works, why inflation matters, and how to protect your financial future, this episode offers a clear and powerful perspective.

Is the financial system really designed to benefit everyone - or is it quietly creating inequality? In this episode, Paul, a former professional investor with over 30 years of experience, shares a powerful critique of modern monetary policy and the role central banks play in shaping today's economy. The conversation begins with a fundamental idea: “In a free market capitalist system, you're only supposed to benefit to the degree that you provide value to others.” But what happens when that system is distorted? We explore how central banks, through policies like low interest rates and money printing, may be driving wealth inequality, unsustainable debt, and the misallocation of capital. Instead of rewarding productivity and innovation, the system increasingly rewards those closest to money creation. This episode breaks down: why inflation acts as a hidden tax on your savings how the Cantillon Effect redistributes wealth why rising house prices may not reflect real economic growth the difference between money and true capital how central banks influence markets and distort price discovery We also dive into key historical turning points, including the creation of the Federal Reserve and the removal of the gold standard in 1971, and how these decisions shaped the modern financial system. Finally, Paul shares his vision for a fairer system - one based on sound money, real value creation, and long-term thinking - along with practical ideas on how individuals can protect their wealth in today's environment, including investing in high-quality assets, gold, and Bitcoin. If you want to understand how money really works, why inequality is rising, and what you can do about it, this is an episode you don't want to miss. All the love, all the power, all of the time!

Can Bitcoin transform the way podcasts are created, distributed, and monetized? In this episode, Wojtek sits down with Nick Malster, co-founder of the Fountain app, to explore how Bitcoin and Nostr could reshape the future of podcasting and the creator economy. Key Topics: Fountain App's origins and vision Challenges of marketing Bitcoin and Nostr Podcast and music distribution Building a startup and the importance of community Onboarding users to Fountain Nick's personal journey into BitcoinFountain started as an attempt to build a better podcast app - one that connects listeners and creators in a more social, interactive, and rewarding way. Unlike traditional podcast platforms, Fountain integrates Bitcoin payments, community features, and decentralized technology to create a new model for podcast discovery and monetization. Nick explains the origins of Fountain, the vision behind the platform, and the challenges of building a startup that sits at the intersection of podcasting, Bitcoin, and Nostr. The conversation explores why many podcast apps feel purely functional and how Fountain aims to transform listening into a community-driven experience where listeners can directly support creators. We also discuss the broader challenges of introducing decentralized technologies to mainstream audiences. Nick shares insights on onboarding users to Bitcoin and Nostr, why self-custody and private keys can be intimidating, and how Fountain is working to simplify the experience while maintaining the benefits of open systems. The episode also dives into the creator economy and how traditional music and podcast platforms often fail to reward creators fairly. Fountain's model allows listeners to send Bitcoin “zaps” and directly support podcasts and artists, offering an alternative to the closed ecosystems of large streaming platforms. Nick also shares his personal journey into Bitcoin and how books like The Bitcoin Standard helped him understand the role of sound money in society and the broader implications of decentralized technologies. If you're interested in Bitcoin, podcasting, the creator economy, or decentralized social media, this conversation offers a fascinating look at how new technologies could reshape the future of content and online communities. Listen to the full episode to discover how Fountain is building a new model for podcasts, creators, and communities in the Bitcoin era. All the love, all the power, all of the time!

Everything Pizza decks are the open secret of the TMT draft format. Some streamers chain one 5 color deck after another. And there is a good reason for that. Since it has not been covered by any podcasts, the top cards for the archetype, including its namesake, are still going relatively late. And it is by far the best deck in the format. Its win rate averages at 60% - way above WB ninjas. And, if you build it correctly, this can be much higher. Today I will look at dos and don'ts of Everything Pizza 5C piles and hopefully convince you that if you never drafted it - you never truly played the TMT draft format and are missing out on the fun.

In 2024 the world, for a year, exceeded 1.5C – the line in the sand we weren't supposed to cross or risk runaway global warming. We're now in an era of overshoot, in which elites are depending upon untested technologies for managing the heating which they refused to halt. Political ecologist Wim Carton contends that there is no substitute for slashing carbon emissions and shutting down the fossil fuel industry. He discusses the perils of continuing to emit carbon dioxide with the plan of capturing it later or eventually harnessing geoengineering to cool the planet by spraying aerosols to block the sun. Wim Carton and Andreas Malm, The Long Heat: Climate Politics When It's Too Late Verso, 2025 The post Emit Now, Reverse Global Warming Later? appeared first on KPFA.

In this episode, I sit down with Roberto Rios aka Peruvian Bull, and he didn't come to play it safe. Fresh off breaking news the morning of recording, we kick things off with the Jane Street manipulation lawsuit and what it might mean for Bitcoin price action. We cover the terrifying thesis of The Great Taking, why you may not actually own the stocks in your brokerage account, China's secret gold accumulation strategy and what it signals about the dollar's future, the slow-motion collapse of Japan's bond market, and how silver is finally breaking free from decades of paper price suppression. ––– Offers & Discounts –––

In this episode, I'm sitting down with Joe Burnett for the fourth time to discuss his piece “The Singularity Has Begun” and this might just be our most important conversation yet. Joe makes a bold case: as intelligence becomes abundant and essentially free, wealth itself starts to melt. When AI models write their own code and you can spin up a trillion Albert Einsteins on demand, what happens to your savings? Your assets? Everything you've worked for? This goes deep into scarcity, abundance, money, and what it means to preserve wealth in a world being fundamentally reshaped by intelligence itself. ––– Offers & Discounts –––

In this episode, I'm chatting with Andy Schoonover, the founder and CEO of CrowdHealth, a revolutionary community-powered alternative to health insurance that's helping thousands of people fund their healthcare through crowdfunding, not corporate middlemen. But here's where it gets really interesting: Andy's not just disrupting healthcare, he's building Bitcoin circularity into the system, working with major hospital networks to accept Bitcoin payments and create a parallel economy where your healthcare dollars never touch the broken fiat system. In this conversation, we dive deep into medical freedom, why the insurance industry is fundamentally broken, how CrowdHealth is achieving zero bankruptcies among their members, and Andy's bold vision for a Bitcoin-powered healthcare future. ––– Offers & Discounts –––

In this episode, I'm sitting down with Beau Turner, co-founder and CEO of Abundant Mines. What starts as a conversation about mining quickly becomes something bigger: a deep exploration of what it means to convert energy into sovereignty. Beau's path here wasn't easy. From real estate empires to catastrophic losses in sketchy mining operations. Now he's on the other side, helping everyday investors participate in something that was once reserved for industrial giants. This isn't just about hash rate and electricity costs. It's about conviction. It's about understanding that while everyone else is chasing narratives, there are people quietly building the physical backbone of a monetary revolution. If you've ever wondered what it takes to truly commit to Bitcoin, this conversation will show you. ––– Offers & Discounts –––

The 5C's (calm, contentment, clarity, consistency, and confidence) are what I hear people say these want more of in their life. But there is certain roadblocks stopping you get there I'll be diving into this topic in depth on my free webinar 

The European Union Copernicus Climate Change Service has confirmed that 2025 was the third warmest year on record and that global temperatures from the past three years have averaged more than 1.5C above the pre-industrial levels. It also confirmed that the past 11 years have been the 11 warmest years on record. This is the first time the level of global warming, over a three-year period, has exceeded 1.5C. For more on this, Alan Morrissey was joined by Leading Climate Expert of NUI Maynooth, Professor John Sweeney. Image (c) Valentin Petrescu's Images via Canva

In this episode, I chat with Aaron Day, a freedom movement architect, serial entrepreneur, and outspoken opponent of global technocracy. After government regulations destroyed his healthcare business, Aaron walked away from the fiat system, becoming an early advocate for Bitcoin and decentralized alternatives. He's also the author of The Final Countdown, and a former presidential candidate who used his campaign to warn Americans about the growing threat of surveillance, CBDCs, and global governance. We dive deep into the rise of technocracy, the ideology behind it, and how key players like Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and institutions like the WEF and UN are accelerating the shift toward centralized digital control. If you're looking to understand the bigger picture behind CBDCs, the hijacking of crypto, and how to opt out of the system, this episode is for you. ––– Offers & Discounts –––

The target, agreed by world leaders in 2015, to limit global warming to 1.5C above pre-industrial levels is now impossible, according to scientists. The consequences are global, and some of those consequences have already been seen in Ireland over the past year.

In this episode, I sit down with Jeff Booth, entrepreneur, author of The Price of Tomorrow, and one of the clearest thinkers on how technology, money, and human agency collide. We explore why Bitcoin is not just an asset but a protocol, how broken money distorts society, and why deflation is the natural state of free markets. We also dig into AI, privacy, self-custody, family, time, and what a Bitcoin standard could mean for human consciousness itself. If you're trying to understand Bitcoin beyond price, grapple with the implications of AI, or make sense of the confusing moment we're living through, this conversation is for you. ––– Offers & Discounts –––

In this episode, I sit down with Walker America, host of the Bitcoin podcast and one half of The Crypto Couple, to explore his journey into Bitcoin, content creation, and podcasting. We discuss the separation of money and state, the power of independent media, low time preference living, homeschooling, and what it truly means to build a Bitcoin family. This conversation dives deep into why Bitcoin is not just a financial tool, but a framework for reclaiming time, sovereignty, and generational legacy. ––– Support My Work ––– Paypal: https://www.paypal.biz/BitcoinMatrix Strike/Bitcoin: BitcoinMatrix@strike.me Cash App: https://cash.app/$BitcoinMatrix Venmo: https://venmo.com/u/bitcoinmatrix PO Box: The Bitcoin Matrix, P.O.

The leaders of the three greatest producers of carbon emissions — the US, China and India — are staying away from the COP30 summit, which officially starts on Monday. The UN says it's now "virtually impossible" to achieve the international target of limiting global warming to 1.5C. Also: South Africa says it's received distress calls from 17 citizens lured into fighting for Russia in the war in Ukraine; and China's astronauts say they've held the first ever barbecue in space.The Global News Podcast brings you the breaking news you need to hear, as it happens.

As global leaders and environmental activists descend on Brazil for next week's Cop30 climate summit, Madeleine Finlay speaks to the Guardian's global environment editor, Jon Watts, who recently sat down for an exclusive interview with the UN secretary general, António Guterres. As he approaches his final summit as the UN chief, Guterres reflected on humanity's progress in attempting to limit global warming to 1.5C above pre-industrial levels, why Indigenous voices must be listened to and how he remains positive in the face of the climate crisis.

Today's Headlines: The fragile Gaza ceasefire is officially over after 18 days, with Israel launching new airstrikes in Rafah after claiming Hamas fired rockets and mishandled the return of hostage remains. Hamas still holds the bodies of 13 hostages, and the stalled recovery effort is blocking the next phase of negotiations — including disarmament and postwar governance. Meanwhile, the U.S. carried out deadly strikes on boats off Colombia's coast, killing 14 people; Mexico's president condemned the attack as a breach of international law. Back home, Trump's legal team is appealing his 34 felony convictions from the hush money case, arguing the trial violated his supposed immunity. A federal judge extended an order blocking the administration from firing federal employees during the shutdown, which continues to drag on. ICE is seeing a wave of leadership purges as the White House pushes for higher deportation numbers, and Trump just greenlit over 1.5 million acres of Alaska's Arctic refuge for oil drilling, reversing Biden-era protections and alarming conservationists. Globally, the U.N. warned that the world will “inevitably” overshoot the 1.5°C warming target, while Bill Gates called for a “strategic pivot” away from limiting warming toward reducing poverty and disease instead. Hurricane Melissa slammed Jamaica as a catastrophic Category 5 storm — one of the strongest in Atlantic history — and Trump's Truth Social is launching Truth Predict, a crypto betting platform for everything from sports to elections, because of course it is.
