Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu! In this fiery episode, Tom and co-host Drew break down a whirlwind week in global politics, economics, and culture. They kick things off analyzing the passage of the Epstein Transparency Act and the political maneuvering surrounding its release, digging into why only one member voted against it and what's really happening behind the scenes. From there, they dive into international developments, unpacking Texas Governor Abbott's controversial decision to label the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization, Saudi Crown Prince MBS's jaw-dropping $1 trillion investment commitment to the US, and the financial turbulence shaking Japan as the yen carry trade unwinds. The looming tensions between China and Japan get a spotlight as well, with an exploration of what's at stake for Taiwan and global chip manufacturing. Finally, the conversation takes a turn toward culture, as Tom and Drew tackle a viral debate: do men really care about women's careers? Tom draws from personal experience to unpack the psychology behind modern relationships and the pressures at play—and what it means for both men and women navigating today's dating scene. Packed with hot takes, big questions, and sharp insight, this episode cuts straight to the heart of what's shaping our world right now. Let's dive in! What's up, everybody?

Today’s episode was hosted by Shumita Basu.

Did you know Amazon makes $37 billion a year—more than double the revenue of all the newspapers in the world combined—from its sponsored results alone? Yes, the same, spammy, sponsored results at the top of a search that bilk shoppers with fake or low-quality items and can starve legitimate businesses of traffic and revenue.This is one of the many insights shared by our guest this week, Tim Wu, in his new book, “The Age of Extraction: How Tech Platforms Conquered the Economy and Threaten Our Future Prosperity.” He argues that the defining story of the modern internet isn't openness or democratization, but rather wealth extraction: the ability of gatekeeping Big Tech platforms, such as Amazon, Facebook, or X, to take money from everyone else without actually providing net value in return. Platforms weaponize convenience, he writes, so switching to competitors or smaller platforms is designed to be exhausting. Add in AI technologies that foster emotional relationships with users, and our dependence on them may deepen even more.An author and professor at Columbia Law School, Wu served in the Biden administration as Special Assistant to the President for Technology and Competition Policy. He discusses with Bethany and Luigi why we should care about Big Tech value extraction and posits how Big Tech power arose in the first place: from centralized power to shareholder pressure, from poorly aligned corporate structures to nefarious intentions. Together, they also chart how we can make our way out of this era of extraction. They discuss the feasibility of treating Big Tech platforms like utilities, applying frameworks for structural separation between the platforms' various services, decentralizing digital network infrastructures through interoperability to allow users to switch more easily between different platforms, and how economic populism influences the political messaging around these issues. Ultimately, Wu makes the case for embracing a philosophy of decentralized capitalism to achieve a fairer and beneficial balance between public and private power. Read more from Tim Wu in ProMarket:The Consumer Welfare Standard is Too TaintedOver recent years, the antitrust law appears to be returning to its historical standard, the “competition and competitive process” standard, often referred to in the Supreme Court as the goal of “protecting competition.” In this post, Tim defends this trend for rule-of-law reasons and presents a realistic assessment of the legal system's capabilities and its limits.A Conversation with Tim WuA transcript of Tim Wu's keynote in conversation with Binyamin Appelbaum of The New York Times from the Stigler Center's annual Antitrust and Competition Conference archives.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We all want a little treat—even if we're on a budget. That desire may be part of what's shaping U.S. liquor sales; big spirits companies are seeing growth in the sales of their smaller bottles of liquor, while sales of the pricier larger sizes decline.

The stock market is broken! Today we talk about a broad range of economic, market, and behavioral topics, beginning with the cognitive bias of sunk costs and how it affects personal decisions, investing, and business choices, emphasizing the importance of recognizing losses and cutting them early. We also explore recent market signals, including distress in the credit and auto-loan markets, and the K-shaped economy. We also critique media and policy narratives, pointing to propaganda around climate change and the pivot to nuclear energy. It's important to be aware and prudent in your observations in uncertain times. We also remark on the rising cost of living, currency devaluation (the end of the penny), and market performance trends. We discuss...  Sunk cost bias was illustrated with examples in plumbing repairs, investing in stocks like QQQ, and hiring ineffective marketers in business. People often continue bad relationships or investments due to the psychological discomfort of admitting mistakes. Non-decisions are still decisions, and it's important to consciously choose a path rather than defaulting to inaction. The conversation shifted to propaganda in media and politics, including discussions about global warming and COVID messaging. Nuclear energy is the only scalable solution for energy needs if climate change is real, and that AI and technology interests influenced the shift in media focus. We discussed deliberate and coincidental market messaging, citing examples of Fed statements and past financial crises like 2008. Michael Burry's recent fund positions and put options on Nvidia and Palantir were discussed as a signal for investors to pay attention, though not necessarily to follow blindly. Extreme caution in investing is recommended, particularly in markets or sectors one does not fully understand, such as the stressed auto-loan market. Signs of market stress were highlighted, including unusual moves in the SOFR rate and subprime auto-loan distress, though not on the scale of the 2008 mortgage crisis. The K-shaped economy was explained, where asset holders benefit from price inflation while those without assets see income stagnation and rising expenses. Rising housing costs and mortgage challenges were linked to declining fertility rates and generational effects on college and workforce participation. Indicators of market sentiment, including CNN's Fear and Greed Index, were analyzed, with a caution not to follow them blindly as they often lag or mislead. Observations were made on shifting consumer behaviors, including declining cash usage and businesses refusing pennies as payment. Future discussion topics were teased, including REIT investment opportunities and year-to-date market performance insights.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | Mergent College Advisors Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.com/stock-market-is-broken

Luffa is the next-gen operating system for the creator and fan economy, combining wallets, identity, communication, community, AI, and mini-programs into one seamless experience. Luffa aims to become the ultimate Web3 connector that transforms attention into ownership and connection into commerce. By enabling creators, brands, and fans to participate in a shared, transactable value-driven social network, Luffa bridges digital engagement and real-world value, empowering each stakeholder in the creator ecosystem to achieve growth, retention, and deeper relationships.Michael Liu is the chief technology officer (CTO) of Luffa. He recently joined the Bitcoin.com News Podcast to talk about the platform.In the episode, Michael Liu introduces his company's vision for transforming the creator and fan economy. Describing Luffa as the "next-generation operating system" and "ultimate Web3 connector," Michael details how the platform aims to fix the current broken model where value is captured by platforms rather than fans and creators. The core goal is a fundamental shift from attention-based platforms to ownership-based networks, turning creators, fans, and brands into aligned participants in a shared value system where every interaction can become a rewarded asset.Luffa is presented not merely as a social application but as a foundational infrastructure that combines critical Web3 components: a Decentralized ID (DID), a cross-chain wallet, communication communities, and mini-apps into one seamless, programmable layer. The platform integrates AI as its "intelligence core," using it for essential personalization of content and automated workflows based on user-controlled data. Furthermore, AI serves as a critical, multi-layered security measure alongside decentralized protocols to detect potential hacks and hijacks to users' DIDs and digital assets, ensuring a high degree of security and privacy by default, even for Web2 users.The conversation highlights Luffa's key differentiators: user ownership of identity and data, programmability that allows social interaction to trigger transactions, and composability for developers and brands to build mini-apps. The company's monetization approach focuses on working with creators rather than through them. Michael shares early validation, including B2B partners and creators using the platform for membership management and NFTs, noting significant growth with over two million downloads and plans for future fundraising and expansion into key global markets like Korea, African countries, the EU, and the US.About Our GuestMichael Liu — CTO of Luffa, is a cross-disciplinary entrepreneur and technologist with a global track record spanning AI, cybersecurity, energy, and fintech.

Dr. Jerome Corsi breaks down major developments shaking the political, cultural, and economic landscape — from the Senate's sudden move on the Epstein files, to shocking violence in America's cities, to global economic warning signs, and the ideological collapse spreading across Western institutions.This episode exposes how elites, activists, and globalist structures continue manipulating narratives while dangerous cultural myths, DEI extremism, and uncontrolled crime erode the foundation of Western society.

Every town has one. A school. A cafeteria. A lunch line. And somewhere in that line, a kid is staring down a plastic tray of food that — for millions — might be the only real meal they get that day. We don't often think of it this way, but the school meal program is the largest restaurant chain in the United States. Seven billion meals a year. Forty million kids. Bigger than Subway. Bigger than McDonald's. Which makes it the biggest opportunity we have to change how we eat, how we grow food, and how we think about nourishment. When we let the system run on the cheapest, most processed calories, the cost shows up in hospital bills, chronic illness, and communities that can't afford to be healthy. In one of the richest countries in the world, eating clean, non-toxic food has somehow become a luxury. But it shouldn't be. Healthy food should be a right. So how did we get here? How did we build a system where the things that keep us healthy are the hardest to afford, while the things that make us sick are everywhere and cheap? Maybe it lives in the subsidies and programs meant to stabilize agriculture — systems that now keep us tied to old ideas of what food should look like. Take cattle ranching: once the backbone of rural life, now caught between an industrial model that demands scale and a regenerative one that demands patience — and risk. Four companies control most of the meat market, while the people who tend the land have the least power to change it. This episode, Tate Chamberlin talks with Nora Latorre, R.C. Carter, and Katie Stebbins — people working to shift the food system from the inside out. From how we feed our kids to how we nourish entire communities. Because we are what we eat. And maybe the way we feed our children is the clearest reflection of the future we're willing to build.

From the affordability crisis to broken regulatory systems, from failing food supply chains to the strangling of small businesses, he lays out why America's problems aren't going to be solved with bigger government, subsidies, or political complacency. Instead, he calls for lower taxes, lighter regulations, revived “animal spirits,” and a government that gets out of the way so Americans can build, create, protect, and teach. Being better than Kamala might be true—but it's nowhere near sufficient.

We talk about the unchecked rise of monopolization, how AI is distorting our economic and energy systems, and the urgent crisis of inflation. It's not all bad news, though — we also talk about what we can do at the state and local levels to help fix it, even while Trump is in power.You're listening to Incorruptible Mass. Our goal is to help people transform state politics: we investigate why it's so broken, imagine what we could have here in MA if we fixed it, and report on how you can get involved.To stay informed:Subscribe to our YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@theincorruptibles6939Subscribe to the podcast at https://incorruptible-mass.buzzsprout.com/Sign up to get updates at http://ww12.incorruptiblemass.org/podcast?usid=18&utid=30927978072Donate to the show at https://secure.actblue.com/donate/impodcast

Bruce & Gaydos explain what a "k-shaped" economy is and why shrink-flation is hitting American consumers hard.

Economic Recovery & Inflation Control Trump inherited an economic crisis caused by Biden’s administration and Democratic policies. Inflation under Biden averaged ~5%, peaking at 9.1%, while under Trump’s second term it dropped to ~2.7%. Price declines in categories like groceries (eggs, butter, ice cream, etc.) and housing costs. Gas & Energy Prices Under Biden: highest gas prices in history, even after using strategic reserves. Under Trump: lowest average gas prices in 4+ years, with energy dominance expected to reduce costs further. Real Wage Gains Under Biden: workers lost $2,900 in purchasing power. Under Trump: real wages grew by $700 and projected to increase by $1,200 after the first full year. Tax Cuts & Deregulation Trump signed what is described as the largest tax cut in U.S. history, including: No tax on tips, overtime, or Social Security. De-regulatory efforts have saved Americans $180 billion collectively. Investment & Job Growth Trillions of dollars have been invested in U.S. operations, creating hundreds of thousands of jobs. States 1.9 million more American-born workers employed than when Trump took office. Tariffs are a driver for on-shoring and industrial investment. Trade Deals & Tariffs New trade agreements with Switzerland and exemptions for certain agricultural products. Tariffs are credited for bringing manufacturing and AI investments back to the U.S. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

The European labor market is on the cusp of its own flat Beveridge moment. That danger was amplified by the third quarter contraction in the Swiss economy, which, as we know, is a key leading global indicator. And if all that wasn't enough, a group of German Economists, of all people, just tore into the mainstream European narrative of Europe being in a good place. They even went so far as correctly, of course, crap all over the Berlin bazooka. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis-------------------------------------------------------------------Get the free guide that breaks down the real economic signals behind America's shrinking consumer demand, and how to protect your wealth before the slowdown hits your income: https://web.eurodollar-university.com/home-------------------------------------------------------------------euronews Weak eurozone growth meets flat jobs market as bankruptcies surgehttps://www.euronews.com/business/2025/11/14/weak-eurozone-growth-meets-flat-jobs-market-as-bankruptcies-surgeBloomberg Merz Advisers Revise 2026 German Growth Forecast to Below 1%https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-11-12/merz-advisers-revise-2026-german-growth-forecast-to-below-1DW Germany news: Economic experts call for change of coursehttps://www.dw.com/en/germany-news-economic-experts-call-for-change-of-course/live-74708934https://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

I'm probably covering 1% of the world events when we conduct these briefings, so please remember that if I left it out, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's unimportant.

Running technique coach Paul Mackinnon (The Balanced Runner) unpacks why most runners "force outcomes" (cadence, foot strike, knee drive) instead of changing the inputs that actually reshape movement. Paul explains his top-down approach—starting at the arms and torso to influence what happens below—so athletes can reduce ground contact time, improve rhythm, and shift along the continuum from rehab to performance. Across an engaging conversation in episode 374 of The Physical Performance Show, with hosts Brad Beer and Huw Darnell, Paul challenges the idea that "technique doesn't matter," arguing that how you move determines how you load. He distinguishes economy from efficiency, shows why arm swing and thoracic control set the timing for the legs, and shares practical cues to build self-awareness, symmetry, and lift—without derailing training volume. Clinicians and athletes alike will gain a clearer roadmap for translating S&C work to the road, coaching more effectively, and making durable technique change.

Is U.S. manufacturing driving off a cliff or into the sunset—and taking the economy with it? Look no further than sales of heavy trucks. Trucking companies buy more of these big rigs when they expect they will have more stuff to ship, so declines in heavy truck sales often match up to economic contractions dating back to the 1960s. Now the data show that sales have been going downhill since 2023, falling off more dramatically since June of this year. Host Alex Ossola talks with Bob Tita, who covers manufacturing for The Wall Street Journal, and Avery Vise, vice president of trucking for data analysis and forecasting firm FTR Transportation Intelligence, about what that says about this moment in the economy, and what might be clouding the picture.
