Interview recorded - 13th of April, 2026On this episode of the WTFinance podcast I had the pleasure of welcoming back Matthew Piepenburg. Matthew Piepenburg is Partner at Von Greyerz, author of Rigged to Fail, and co-author of Gold Matters — a comprehensive examination of gold as a historically confirmed wealth preservation asset. He began his career as a transactional attorney, launched a hedge fund during the NASDAQ bubble, and has worked across family offices and Morgan Stanley's hedge fund platform before dedicating his work to precious metals and monetary risk.During our conversation we spoke about the current geopolitical situation, the dollar system fracturing, central banks losing control, golds continuous rise and more.

Matthew worked closely as well with Morgan Stanley's hedge fund platform in building a multi-strat/multi-manager fund to better manage risk in a market backdrop of extreme central bank intervention/support. The conviction that precious metals provides the most reliable and longer-term protection against potential systemic risk led Matt to join VON GREYERZ.The author of the Amazon No#1 Release, Rigged to Fail, Matt is fluent in French, German and English; he is a graduate of Brown (BA), Harvard (MA) and the University of Michigan (JD).

Lots of opinions are circulating about the capture of Maduro in Venezuela. Some think it's great, others think it's terrible, while others think there is a major international conspiracy taking place.  This week Curtis goes through some different perspectives and shines the light of history on the unfolding news of today.

GMoney is back and fully unleashed in this explosive episode of Rugpull Radio. With the country feeling like a powder keg and psyops hitting all-time highs, G tears into the chaos, from Epstein distractions to market manipulation, and brings the focus back to what he considers the real battlefield: Bitcoin, sovereignty, and the collapse of the fiat system. He breaks down why Bitcoin is a spiritual force, why Trump's “Stable Genius Act” is actually a stablecoin revolution, and how portable mortgages, tokenization, and treasury-backed digital dollars signal the death of the old financial order. Between fiery rants, Guard stories, and calling out “Macedonian cucks,” GMoney digs into the Genius Act, stablecoins as a peaceful siege on the banks, the meaning of Trump's crypto upgrade comments, and why doomers will get left behind. He highlights Square's Lightning integration, Cash App stablecoins, and global adoption, all while mocking financial elites, praising decentralization, and celebrating a renamed “Einstein Pepe.” This is peak GMoney: unfiltered, prophetic, savage, and surprisingly hopeful.

Forward guidance seems to have evaporated today! The Central Bankers seem to push their forecasts out again, as inflation remains hot. But Central Bankers seem caught in the headlights of conflicting data and political pressure, especially in the USA. Many households are caught in the cross-fire! How credible is the pursuit of the “2%”? This … Continue reading "Central Bank Fest With A Bias To Cutting…"

Central banks have, it is claimed, played an integral role in the evolution of modern economies. Initially, central banks were closely tied to governments. Their independence became a formalized goal in the late 20th century, especially post-1970s inflation crises. However, critics argue this independence is often more theoretical than practical. Actually, The global trend toward … Continue reading "Pop Goes “Independent” Central Bankers?"

Today we discuss the upcoming Jackson Hole Bun Fight and New Zealand Reserve Bank Decision to cut rates and I will argue that the whiff of stagflation is getting stronger, to the detriment of ordinary households and businesses.

Tom and co-host Drew dive deep into the week's most explosive headlines—from Trump's bold moves on the global stage, including nuclear posturing and ultimatums to Russia, to Senator Warren's controversial takes on taxing the rich and the very real repercussions that could have on cities like New York. The conversation pulls no punches, breaking down what happens if billionaires flee, what's truly driving skyrocketing unaffordability, and the alarming collapse of the middle class as shown by a viral marriage-and-homeownership chart. But we don't stop there. You'll hear Tom and Drew tackle wild policy proposals, like calls to abolish the family from the Democratic Socialists of America, and why the culture-versus-politics debate may be the most crucial fight of our era. From threats to free speech in the UK and EU to the chilling implications of mass surveillance, the episode unpacks how global powers manipulate narratives—and why Americans can't take core freedoms for granted. Turning to technology, Tom and Drew geek out on the jaw-dropping pace of AI advancements—from Google's AI-generated 3D worlds to 11Labs' game-changing music tools—and wrestle with the looming asteroid of automation: millions of jobs on the line, and an urgent call for everyone to understand assets and self-reliance.

Being inside with no air conditioning during a heat wave sucks. The world's top central bankers are warning everyone that stable coins are not-so-stable. 

How do you solve a problem like price rises? That's the question central banks around the world are grappling with... and we've seen a flurry of decisions coming out of central banks around the world this week on interest rates. Also, we go to Denmark, where military drones are big business at Europe's biggest flying tech show. Namibia is rolling out the red carpet for investment... And Thailand could be hitting the jackpot as it plans to open casinos to boost tourism. You can contact us on WhatsApp or send us a voicenote: +44 330 678 3033.

Luke walks through his strange personal link to the brigade, shares his discovery of a cryptographic “7-8-Q” symbol buried on their site, and explores how its mission aligns with softwar strategy, information warfare, and a nonviolent counterinsurgency against globalist institutions. The conversation blends symbolism, history, and open-source intelligence, touching on NSA origins of SHA-256, the mysterious “Praetorians,” cryptographic keys, and uncanny date alignments with drops. Luke also reveals never-before-discussed magazine articles hinting at digital deterrence, military-civilian collaboration, and quantum threats to encryption. GMoney and Luke argue that Bitcoin are two sides of the same strategic coin, engineered to awaken and equip the public for digital sovereignty. With appearances from Musk memes, Satoshi breadcrumbs, and rare Pepe lore, this episode is a masterclass in narrative warfare, and may just flip your understanding of everything.

For a full list of credits, and for the rest of the episodes, visit the series page. They will back with a new season focussed on environmental politics in early 2025, so make sure you are subscribed to the podcast (Apple, Spotify, manual RSS). The MAGA movement scores big wins by taking cheap shots at experts. Now, some worry that Donald Trump could try to oust Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. The typical centrist position is to defend the supposedly impartial, apolitical expertise of such figures. Yet, we know that is not exactly right either. Is there a better way to imagine a better bank? In our first segment, we speak with Frances Coppala, author of The Case for People's Quantitative Easing. It's something of a case study in Fed politics, revealing how their decisions post-Global Financial Crisis served the rich, and not working people. Yet, saying that these experts are political does not mean we have to be hyper-partisan reactionary hacks. Instead, democratizing the bank could offer a better way forward. That's according to Annelise Riles, a professor of law and of anthropology, and author of the book Financial Citizenship: Experts, Publics, and the Politics of Central Banking.

Yesterday's pontification of Federal Reserve speakers created a stir in bond markets. There were a range of views expressed, from “keep on cutting” to “more gradual cuts”. Markets, rendered skittish by Fed's “data dependency” on undependable data, have raised yields. US inflation is down one percentage point since last December, which would justify a similar reduction in rates over the course of this year.

This week, Maria sat down with Sergey Aleksashenko and Alexandra Prokopenko to discuss the Russian central bank's continued inability to reign in domestic inflation, and what it means for Russia's economy and war effort going forward.

Are you caught fiatsplaining your current career whilst being a Bitcoiner? $ BTC 56,854 Block Height 860,753 Today's guest on the show is @_Base_Money who joins me to talk about how being forced onto a fiat standard, we are not thriving, we are surviving. How have we allowed Central Bankers to monopolise printing money and manipulate interest rates? What effect does this have on a civilisation and what can we learn from anthropological studies? What happened when ancient humans discovered and started using a medium of exchange? How will #Bitcoin lift us all out of the fiat rat-race and futile existence we currently find ourselves? A huge thank you to @_Base_Money for coming on the show and for his continued mission to educate as many people about #Bitcoin as possible.

Billionaire venture capitalist Peter Thiel was in the news this week for a very, er, controversial interview with Joe Rogan. On this week's TLDR, how do Thiel's political and social views square with his approach to investing? Plus, a look at the big cut Apple takes from app store users, and why it's about to cost content creators even more. And, the reason that we will probably never be central bankers.This episode was hosted by Devin Friedman, financial educator Kyla Scanlon, former hedgefunder Matthew Karasz and managing editor Kat Angus.

Bank of Japan Governor Ueda spoke to the Japanese Diet, and was inclined to be somewhat hawkish. There was an acknowledgement of the instability of financial markets, which is hardly surprising in the wake of recent volatility—including suggestions that BoJ action may have contributed to it. The yen strengthened modestly in the aftermath.

Andy Schectman, president of Miles Franklin, joins the program to discuss the incredible takedown activity of the western financial system by the elites. As he says, “It's too stupid to be stupid”. Their activities show they have been preparing for years and now are supporting actions that would destroy the system. We also discuss if the BRICS are purposely taking down the Khazarian mafia western system. It is more important than ever to follow the lead of the most sophisticated investors on the planet and protect your assets with gold and silver.Email Miles Franklin and tell them “Sarah Sent Me” at info@milesfranklin.com

What's misinformation about the economy? It's a well-known fact policymakers and Economists outright lie about any situation. But why? They say it's for your own good. The lies are beginning to pile up so much that officials now have to lie about their lies, including the very theory behind all of this especially when some of the theoreticians who came up with it no longer want to be the very purveyors of misinformation. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisGeorge DeMartino Should Economists Deceive?

Dr. Jack Rasmus discusses the decline of American Empire which has suffered a serious financial blow and militarily is in retreat. He gives his view on the Ukraine War and the March 22nd terror attack in Russia and believes we will continue to see escalation. The dollar is the linchpin of the global empire and it continues to be used less as we see the acceleration of BRICS as an antipole. Decline will be protracted, it's a process. The elites or the supranational financial capitalists/imperialists seek to continue maintaining and amassing global wealth. EU is done economically. The Pentagon is planning for war with China, but not before 2030. The empire isn't going away quietly. The propaganda and censorship machine of the one-party system will intensify as our current neoliberal regime cannot continue without further restricting democracy.

Unlike most terms thrown around Economics, 'globally synchronized' is no joke. It also isn't a recent development. Throughout modern history, when a sizable portion of the world starts to show contraction it will spread throughout the rest with very few spared. It is a poignant reminder given how the same is happening right now. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisBoJ New Procedures for Money Market Operations and Monetary Easing Mar 19, 2001https://www.boj.or.jp/en/mopo/mpmdeci/mpr_2001/k010319a.htmSpeech given by Kazuo Ueda, Member of the Policy Board of the Bank of Japan, at Council on Foreign Relations in New York, May 11, 2001 https://www2.boj.or.jp/archive/en/announcements/press/koen_2001/ko0105a.htmSpeech by Dr. Willem F.
