Clint, Meg, and Dan kick off Friday chatting NRL results and Meg’s awkward “better looking in real life” compliment to Dan. They riff on a 1973 relationship book urging wives to greet husbands in costumes to stop cheating, then take calls about partners dressing up—Batman comes up more than once. A discussion about keeping removed body parts escalates from Meg saving her daughter’s first haircut to listeners storing placentas, gallstones, hip bones, and even dog testicles.

Driven by the alluring promise of financial freedom— young women bypass traditional careers or quit working entirely to rely on generous benefactors—the dark underbelly of the "sugar daddy" phenomenon continues to open up into a global web of fraud, extortion, and high-profile crime. What once began as a modern arrangement for financial gain has mutated into calculated criminal operations: from syndicate-run white-collar romance fraud where victims—including healthcare workers, teachers, and clerical staff—are tricked by fake tycoons into paying thousands in bogus "legal fees", to rogue influencers, former models, and serial thieves who turn real-life dates into predatory crime scenes. As glamorous online fantasies crumble into stolen fortunes, police task forces, emergency 911 calls, and no-bail courtrooms reveal a harsh reality: in the high-stakes game of transactional romance, both those seeking a payday and those offering one are finding out that the ultimate cost is far higher than they ever bargained for.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/depraved-and-debaucherous--5267208/support.Contact KOP for professional podcast production, imaging, and web design services at http://www.kingofpodcasts.comSupport KOP by subscribing to his YouTube channel and search for King Of PodcastsFollow KOP on X and TikTok @kingofpodcasts (F Meta!)Listen to KOP's other programs, Podcasters Row… and the Wrestling is Real Wrestling Podcast and The Broadcasters Podcast.Buy KOP a Coffee https://buymeacoffee.com/kingofpodcastsDrop KOP a PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=3TAB983ZQPNVLDrop KOP a Venmo https://account.venmo.com/u/kingofpodcastsDrop KOP a CashApp https://cash.app/$kingofallpodcasts

They plug the Overthinkers podcast and replay a wildly inappropriate Would You Rather involving Dan calling his mum.

EPISODE DESCRIPTIONI sat down with Rohit, Richard, and Carlos from CAAN , three veterans with decades of experience across Goldman Sachs, Bear Stearns, BlackRock, and Deutsche Bank , to break down what is really happening in markets right now. We get into why Bitcoin has gone quiet, where all the volatility has migrated to, and what the bond market breaking down could mean for everyone. More importantly, we dig into what CAAN is building: liquid alternative strategies that give everyday investors access to the kind of sophisticated, uncorrelated returns that were previously locked behind institutional walls. Richard also shares a raw and refreshingly honest take on wealth, happiness, and why borrowing money to impress people is a trap. This one covers a lot of ground , macro, crypto, derivatives, and life advice , and I think you will find it genuinely useful.

The first call comes from Amy in Queenstown, a new drug-testing worker. Meg panics over a mysterious computer mouse package that turns out to be her mum’s lost Airbnb item.

The AI trade just suffered a major semiconductor sell-off—but is this the beginning of the end, or a buying opportunity inside a long-term bull market? In this episode of Payne Points of Wealth with Brooks Cutright, Portfolio Manager at Hedgeye Asset Management, we uncover the hidden forces driving Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, Micron, SanDisk and other major technology stocks. The recent volatility may have less to do with collapsing AI demand and more to do with index rebalancing, ETF flows, and hedge funds positioning around hundreds of billions of dollars in predictable trades. But the bigger question is impossible to ignore: Will the trillions being spent on artificial intelligence ever pay for themselves? Big Tech companies are pouring massive amounts of capital into AI chips, data centers and computing infrastructure—even as questions grow about adoption, monetization and return on investment. If computing power becomes a low-margin commodity, today's biggest AI spenders may not become tomorrow's biggest winners. In this episode: • What really caused the semiconductor stock sell-off • How index rebalancing forces funds to sell mega-cap tech • How hedge funds profit from predictable market flows • Whether Nvidia and the AI trade are entering bubble territory • Why hyperscalers may struggle to monetize AI spending • The “picks and shovels” companies making money from the AI arms race • Why private credit could be hiding the market's biggest leverage risk • How to find companies before they enter the S&P 500 • Why power producers and infrastructure stocks may offer a better AI opportunity than semiconductor stocks The ultimate AI winners may not be the companies spending the most money. They may be the businesses using AI to lower costs, improve productivity and expand profit margins. If you've saved more than $1 million for retirement, Payne Capital Management will run a complimentary Total Financial Master Plan covering your investments, retirement income, diversification, fees and tax strategy.

What if there are dozens of opportunities for you to make money easily right in front of you... but you can't see them?In this episode, I'm sharing two client stories that show how the hard work wound can make us unconsciously overlook ideas and opportunities for easy money. We talk about how your brain filters out anything that doesn't match your subconscious beliefs, what that actually looks like in real life, and what starts to change when you heal those beliefs and your nervous system begins to feel safe with money coming easily.If you've ever felt like you're doing everything you can but money still feels harder than it should, this episode is for you.Join MoneyMoves: https://victoriadambrozio.mykajabi.com/money-moves-sales-pageTiktok/Instagram: @victoriadambrozio
On this episode of Minor Issues, Mark Thornton opens with a review of John Mearsheimer's Why Do Politicians Lie?, focusing on strategic deception in international affairs, especially in the Middle East, Israel, Vietnam, Iraq, and America's own constitutional history. Mark argues that political lies are not merely moral failures; they are tools for empire, war, and state expansion.On Side B, Thornton joins What The Finance to explain how runaway spending, Fed liquidity, and Austrian business cycle theory reveal the deeper mechanics behind today's markets. He discusses the AI and data-center bubble, the Fed's role in sustaining malinvestment, the pressure on working families, and why gold, silver, and commodities are benefiting from a long era of monetary inflation and political dysfunction.2026 is the Year of Rothbard—Murray's 100th birthday—and we're celebrating by giving away free copies of Keynes the Man through June 30.

Mark Thornton replays his wide-ranging Kitco News interview with Jeremy Szafron, connecting today's “two economies” to Ludwig von Mises's Austrian business cycle theory. Easy money and credit inflation lift asset owners, big corporations, and government finance, while working families get the bill through higher prices and weaker real wages. They discuss late-cycle signals in tech and AI and broader corporate credit, and how war-driven energy shocks feed into a wider commodity surge. Mark also breaks down Cantillon effects at the kitchen-table level and closes with bottom-up strategies like local resilience, savings, and removing tax barriers to using gold and silver as practical inflation protection.2026 is the Year of Rothbard—Murray's 100th birthday—and we're celebrating by giving away free copies of Anatomy of the State through May 31.

In this episode, Michael Blank sits down with veteran capital raiser Bronson Hill to unpack what's really happening in today's alternative investment landscape—and how investors should respond. After years of easy money, rapid appreciation, and aggressive multifamily growth, the market has shifted dramatically. Bronson shares candid lessons from raising over $55 million across multifamily, debt funds, oil & gas, mobile home parks, and private equity, while discussing the painful realities many operators and investors have faced over the last few years. Together, they explore market cycles, investor psychology, diversification, risk-adjusted returns, AI-driven due diligence, and why today's challenging environment may actually create the best buying opportunities of the next decade. This is a masterclass in navigating uncertainty while staying focused on long-term financial freedom.Key TakeawaysThe Best Investment Opportunities Often Appear During Fearful Markets Historically, the strongest deals emerge when investors are hesitant, cautious, and sitting on the sidelines—not when everyone is rushing in.Market Cycles Matter More Than Most Investors Realize Understanding when to buy, hold, pause, or sell within an asset class is critical to long-term success and capital preservation.Diversification Can Help Investors Weather Volatility Exploring non-correlated assets like debt funds, precious metals, oil & gas, or private equity can create stability during turbulent market cycles.Cash Flow Is King in Today's Environment Investors are prioritizing assets that generate immediate or near-term cash flow over speculative appreciation plays.Great Operators Communicate During Difficult Times Strong communication, transparency, and accountability matter even more than perfect track records when navigating challenging investments.AI Is Becoming a Powerful Tool for Investor Due Diligence Investors can now use AI tools to analyze deals, uncover risks, generate questions, and align opportunities with their personal financial goals faster than ever before.Connect with MichaelFacebookInstagramYouTubeTikTokResourcesTheFreedomPodcast.com Access the #1 FREE Apartment Investing Course (Apartments 101)Schedule a Free Strategy Session with Michael's Team of AdvisorsExplore Michael's Mentoring ProgramJoin the Nighthawk Equity Investor ClubReview the Podcast on Apple PodcastsSyndicated Deal AnalyzerGet the Book, Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing by Michael Blank For full episode show notes visit: https://themichaelblank.com/podcasts/session524/

Ben McKenzie (Everyone Is Lying to You for Money, Easy Money) is an actor, author, and outspoken cryptocurrency skeptic. Ben joins Armchair Expert to discuss growing up in a civically minded family in Austin, studying economics at the University of Virginia, and stumbling into acting success with early fame on an unnamed hit show. Ben and Dax talk about navigating imposter syndrome after overnight success, transitioning from acting into writing and directing, and what led him into investigating crypto markets during the pandemic. Ben explains why behavioral economics reveals how irrational people really are, how financial systems exploit trust and hype, and why the promise of “easy money” taps into something dangerously universal.Sign up now in the app or at grubhub.com/plus/golddays to unlock exclusive Gold Days deals.Check Allstate first for a quote that could save you hundreds: https://www.allstate.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Are You Scared Of Easy Money? Ever feel like a fraud when money comes easy? In this episode, David Ralph deconstructs "Mental Concrete"—the deep-seated belief that wealth must be tied to suffering. Using the "Thousand Pound Litmus Test," David reveals why we're programmed to be suspicious of ease and addicted to the grind. We explore the transition from a Peasant Mindset to Success Architecture, shifting from trading hours for sweat to building "pipes" that deliver value on autopilot. Learn why busyness is often just "lazy thinking" and how to secure your "Cognitive Liberty." Stop carrying buckets to a well that's already been tapped. It's time to break the concrete and let the machine work harder than you do.

Crypto is back—new hype cycles, rising prices, and fresh promises that this time cryptocurrency is changing the financial system for good. But the questions haven't changed: is this innovation or just another wave of speculation, scams, and financial fraud? That's why we're revisiting this conversation with actor and author Ben McKenzie—whose bestselling book Easy Money: Cryptocurrency, Casino Capitalism, and the Golden Age of Fraud and new documentary, Everyone is Lying to You For Money are once again fueling the debate over crypto's real impact. What started as curiosity became a deeper look at how the crypto boom blurred the line between investing and gambling—and what that reveals about an economy increasingly driven by speculation instead of real value. McKenzie joins Nick and Goldy to pull back the curtain on the hype, the believers, and the system that made it all possible. Ben McKenzie is an actor, author, and director best known for his roles on The O.C., Southland, and Gotham. A graduate of the University of Virginia with a degree in economics and foreign affairs, he has emerged as a leading critic of the cryptocurrency industry. He is the co-author, with journalist Jacob Silverman, of Easy Money: Cryptocurrency, Casino Capitalism, and the Golden Age of Fraud, and has expanded that work into a documentary, Everyone is Lying to You For Money , examining the rise—and risks—of crypto.

Will Thomson of Massif Capital reviews three stock picks he has shared on MSE over the years and discusses two other stocks he currently owns. He also explains why “country risk” is company-specific and depends on the relationship between a firm and the state, not an inherent risk in a country. Thomson argues consistent returns in real-asset equities come less from predicting commodity prices and more from identifying management teams that execute, noting commodity price explains much of day-to-day moves but little of longer-term equity returns beyond about 90 days. 00:00 Show Intro and Guest 01:29 Easy Money vs Full Cycle 03:00 Why Commodities Cancel Out 07:15 Where Massive Cap Invests 09:05 Equinox Gold Playbook 12:17 Kazatomprom Fundamentals Win 15:10 Global Atomic and Niger Risk 22:05 Fixers Versus Bribes 23:06 Playing the Lobbying Game 24:29 Mexico Cartel Risk 27:17 Jurisdictional vs Geological Risk 27:57 Alphamin Exit Strategy 30:15 Security Versus Jurisdiction Risk 31:15 Lithium Americas Trade Lessons 32:54 Favorite Metals Right Now 33:45 Fund Management Marketing 36:46 Where to Follow Will https://x.com/wmthomson22 https://massif.substack.com/ Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Mining Stock Education (MSE) offers informational content based on available data but it does not constitute investment, tax, or legal advice.

In this Good Morning Hospitality, A Skift Podcast Bonus episode, Brandreth Canaley and Michael Goldin sit down with Tim Rosolio, VP of Vacation Rental Partnerships at Vrbo/Expedia Group, from a standout “Vacation Rental of the Year” property in New Hampshire. Tim breaks down what actually drives performance on Vrbo today, from must-have amenities and pricing strategies to the growing importance of quality, consistency, and reviews in an increasingly saturated market. He shares why the short-term rental “gold rush” is officially over, and what operators need to do now to stay competitive. The conversation also dives into Expedia Group's broader strategy, including the rapid growth of B2B distribution, the expansion of vacation rentals across Expedia's ecosystem, and how new tools like promotions and sponsored listings are changing visibility and bookings.

Guy Adami interviews investor George Noble about truth-telling, integrity, and eroding confidence in institutions and markets. They discuss trading realism (being right even 25% can be great), the dangers of becoming owned by a public position, and how results-chasing misallocates capital. Noble critiques passive investing for suppressing price discovery and warns reversals could be violent, citing Japan's 1980s liquidity-driven market. He argues bonds are mispriced given deficits and inflation, expects rates/yields higher even if cuts come, and views asset gains as fiat currency debasement; he advocates owning gold (and some oil) as an inflation hedge. He criticizes private credit/equity as “mark-to-model” volatility laundering and urges real price discovery. Noble favors active management, rotation away from Mag 7, and describes his $99 idea-focused conference (800+ attendees) aimed at sharing veteran investors' insights. —FOLLOW USYouTube: @RiskReversalMediaInstagram: @riskreversalmediaTwitter: @RiskReversalLinkedIn: RiskReversal Media

Mike Colter (Luke Cage, Jessica Jones, Evil) joins us for a deeply reflective and grounded conversation about confidence, discipline, and what it really takes to sustain a career in Hollywood without losing yourself. Mike opens up about early support versus later self doubt, nearly being pushed out of grad school, and how proving people wrong became fuel rather than resentment. He talks about why Luke Cage changed his life but never defined him, why he values trust over prestige, and how self worth comes from being comfortable alone. Thank you to our sponsors:
