We open by tracking our video money and mocking the chef who quit Elon's "epic" bacon diner, before diving into the IN THE NEWS segment where plummeting crypto and Nvidia stocks confirm everything is a sham; we cover Bezos's new $6.2 billion AI flop, a sleeping Tesla Robotaxi driver, and why OpenAI's new school tools are a Recipe for Idiocracy with students who can't read; in MEDIA CANDY, we tear apart Disney's lazy Moana remake; THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE we discuss Zork going open source and why movies just don't feel real anymore before CLOSING SHOUT-OUTS where we are mourning Mani from the Stone Roses, and wishing Bjork a very metal 60th.We start with a FOLLOW UP on our channel's performance, wading through the garbage pile of Monetization questions and Stats, including the scourge of Shorts—because apparently, that's what we do now. Speaking of people running from trouble, former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers is ditching his OpenAI board seat after a fresh batch of cringey Jeffrey Epstein emails surfaced. Meanwhile, the financial world is having a meltdown: Nvidia's Stock is Falling Again after its earnings report, exposing the fact that almost Yet Another Study Shows That Most Companies Aren't Making Any Money Off AI, and Bitcoin is Getting Absolutely Crushed Right Now, which we happily remind you will Trigger the Next Financial Crisis. Don't worry, Jeff Bezos will head a new engineering-focused AI startup because the world clearly needs more tech billionaires throwing money at things they don't understand, while Apple is reportedly getting ready to replace Tim Cook.The tech-bro corruption parade continues as a former DOJ official points out that Trump's Crypto Pardon of the Binance co-founder is exactly what it looks like, and Elon's pet AI, Grok Insists That Elon Musk Is More Physically Fit Than LeBron James and better at everything else, proving the bot has been sampling its boss's Adderall. Even though ChatGPT Achieves a New Level of Intelligence by finally letting you disable its em-dash addiction, companies like Intuit are integrating its tax and accounting products with ChatGPT—because who doesn't want an AI-powered tax audit? This all dovetails nicely with the news that OpenAI is launching ChatGPT for Teachers' right as students' math skills hit a low, leading to a literal Recipe for Idiocracy where elite college students Can't Read Books. The whole thing is broken, including Tesla's so-called Robotaxi, where a Passenger Alarmed When Tesla Robotaxi “Safety” Driver Falls Completely Asleep at the Wheel. On a lighter note, we check out the new trailers for The Witcher S4, Frankenstein, and Project Hail Mary in MEDIA CANDY, and tear apart the absolutely unnecessary live-action Moana teaser, before mentioning the biggest drama launch on Apple TV, Pluribus.Next up is THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, where our tireless security guru Dave Bittner throws in some random facts, like Microsoft making Zork I, II, and III open source and videos on why the iOS Keyboard is Broken and Why Movies Just Don't Feel "Real” Anymore, and we discuss Thanksgiving plans. Finally, in CLOSING SHOUT-OUTS, we end with a shout-out to our generous PATREON supporters and PAYPAL/STRIPE donors, mourn the passing of Stone Roses and Primal Scream bassist Mani, and wish the incomparable Bjork a milestone 60th birthday.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/tWM83ra7Qp8Sponsors:Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

John Bartleman, the CEO of TradeStation, is here today to talk about how AI will transform the future of trading. John shares his background and the evolution of TradeStation from early backtesting software to a full-service broker, while explaining how its roots in systematic trading differentiated it from competitors. He outlines major industry shifts, along with the benefits and challenges of dark pools and institutional order flow. We also dive into how AI is transforming trading, as John describes his own use of MCP-enabled AI agents for research, portfolio analysis, trade structuring, and more. AI may radically reshape fintech analytics and asset management, enabling traders to work more efficiently and pushing the industry toward fewer traditional money managers and more AI-driven decision systems. We discuss... Record money market fund levels are being widely misinterpreted, as the balances often represent defensive positioning rather than pent-up buying power. Many investors mistakenly assume large cash balances automatically signal a coming equity influx, ignoring the behavioral reasons people hold cash. The tariff headline created rapid swings in futures markets, revealing how sensitive positioning is ahead of the election. A sharp crypto drawdown triggered widespread stop-loss cascades across major tokens, amplifying downside pressure in a classic liquidity vacuum. Seasonal trends typically provide a tailwind this time of year, but macro uncertainty is preventing markets from fully leaning into the pattern. Investors are observing a notable rotation away from mega-cap tech and toward value-oriented and small-cap sectors. The dispersion between the top seven tech stocks and the rest of the index remains near historic extremes. Elevated cash levels and volatility suggest institutional investors are selectively adding risk rather than buying broadly. Market breadth is improving modestly, but not enough yet to signal a durable trend reversal. Short-term traders are capitalizing on intraday volatility spikes driven by headlines and algos. Longer-term investors remain focused on earnings resilience and margin stability across sectors. Companies with global exposure are expressing concern about potential policy shifts after the election. Energy and industrials are gaining attention as potential beneficiaries of a reflationary environment. Tech remains bifurcated between AI-driven leaders and more traditional software names experiencing deceleration. Crypto markets continue to influence risk appetite, even among investors who do not directly hold digital assets.

People buying cocaine on a Friday night could be inadvertently funding Russia's war in Ukraine. This is according to An international investigation involving the gardaí, the UK National Crime Agency (NCA) and other European and US law enforcement agencies Shane discusses this further with Crypto currency Journalist Connor Sephton.
In this extremely enraged episode of Follow the Money, we ask the only question that actually matters in Trump's second crime spree through history: who is getting rich off of Trump chaos and the world's misery? Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman of Trump Tyranny Tracker and Andrea Chalupa of Gaslit Nation together trace a financial pipeline of blood money that runs from the Kremlin, through Qatar, through crypto, straight into Trump World and its favorite oligarch bagmen. While Ukrainian kids are protesting, begging the world not to look away as Russia bombs their playgrounds and kindergartens, Trump's MAGA lackeys, like Matt Gaetz protege Rep. Anna Luna, are in Florida huddling with Putin's money man and messenger, Kirill Dmitriev, sketching out yet another fake "peace plan" that is nothing but a genocide plan for Ukraine and a launchpad for a larger war with Europe. In a blatant crime of access journalism that would make Michael Wolff jealous, Axios published Kremlin/MAGA disinformation by calling it a "peace proposal." In reality, it's a Kremlin bribe: sell off Ukraine's land, launder the theft through "diplomacy," and cash out in crypto for Trump and his longtime real estate buddy-turned-Kremlin fixer Steve Witkoff, and their sons. Their plan is for Ukraine to give up Donbas and Crimea, which suffers under Soviet-style repression, disarm Ukraine' military, and expect the world to recognize stolen land as Russian. In exchange, Trump, Witkoff, and their sons would allegedly get crypto via Qatar and a chance to turn genocide into an investment opportunity. All of this is happening while Russia openly kidnaps Ukrainian children, erases their identities, and feeds them into a military pipeline of Putin's forever war, while half of Europe anxiously prepares for war with Moscow. Follow the money, and you see the gaslighting of Trump once again being bribed to call the Kremlin's foreign policy his own.

Bitcoin is stuck. The market feels heavy. Sentiment is terrible. And yet, none of the traditional bull-market top signals have fired. Not a single one. In Episode 796, Joel and Travis dig into one of the strangest phases Bitcoin has ever entered. A trillion dollars has fallen off the crypto market cap since early October, ETF flows have flipped negative, liquidity is thinning out, and institutions are repositioning. But at the same time, the larger macro picture, historical drawdowns, and long-term adoption trends point to something very different. Is this the end of the bull run? Or is this exactly what a mid-cycle flush looks like—painful, confusing, and full of mixed signals? In this episode we cover:• Why liquidity is disappearing and how it affects every chart• ETF outflows, BlackRock’s massive selling week, and what it really means• Why none of the historical bull-run peak indicators have triggered• How macro forces, Japan’s rate shifts, and global pressure ripple into crypto• What Apple, Nvidia, and on-device AI reveal about where the tech cycle is headed• Why Bitcoin repeat patterns matter—and why they don’t• The psychological trap of watching the market every day This is a grounded, straight-talk conversation about the state of the market — the kind of conversation Joel and Travis used to have before the podcast even existed. Crypto goes up. Crypto goes down. The chart keeps moving. And your favorite blockheads are still here, from Dubai to Puerto Rico. Listen, comment, debate, and tell us what you think the market is about to do next. Stay bad.Support the show: https://badcryptopodcast.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Curt Jaimungal dives into Kierkegaard's three stages of life—aesthetic, ethical, and religious — showing how each promises freedom yet traps us in its own way. Through the lens of modern anxiety and constant choice, he explores why the “leap of faith” isn't blind irrationality but a way of living with authenticity when reason hits its limits.

The crypto market has now erased more than $1 trillion in value as Bitcoin plunges into bear-market territory, ETFs see record outflows, and global risk sentiment continues to deteriorate. Bitcoin's drop into the high-$80Ks has sparked fears of a deeper unwind, while whales quietly accumulate and regulators shift their stance on digital assets. At the same time, Nvidia's blockbuster earnings are clashing with growing AI-bubble warnings, Japan's bond shock is threatening a massive yen carry-trade unwind, and macro volatility is rising everywhere from equities to FX. In today's video, we break down whether this relief bounce is real—or just a classic dead-cat setup as the market faces its most dangerous moment in years.
