    The Bank of Japan keeps hiking its policy rate, Japanese bond yields continue to rise, yet no matter how high interest rates go over there the weaker the Japanese yen seems to get. And no one can figure out why. The government is stumped. Central bankers can only complain. And the yen is not the only one, but is a critical example of what everyone leaves out because they don't really know what they're looking at, or even looking for. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis------------------------------------------------------------EDU LIVE PRESIDENT'S DAY FEBRUARY 2026If you're a serious investor and want to capitalize on what the monetary system is signaling right now, plus deep discussions about what truly is the greatest threat we all face, join me, Hugh Hendry, George Gammon, Steve Van Metre, Brent Johnson, Mike Green at Eurodollar University's very first Live Event, President's Day Weekend February 2026. Reserve your spot below but you better hurry, there aren't many left:https://eurodollar-university.com/event-home-page---------------------------------------------------------------------------------EDU's After-Christmas SALEGet $1,000 off an annual subscription to our DDA+ or 40% off an annual membership.

    This is a deep, grounded conversation with Bruce McGlenn, founder of Human Nature Hunting, whose life has been shaped by four decades of hunting, ancestral knowledge, and an uncompromising relationship with the land. This episode goes far beyond hunting as a skill or sport and enters the terrain of initiation, masculinity, responsibility, and what it means to participate directly in life and death. Bruce speaks with rare clarity about the psychological and spiritual cost of modern disconnection—from food, from nature, and from our role as participants rather than consumers—and how the hunt restores something ancient and intact within the human nervous system. Drawing from lived experience, not ideology, this conversation explores why so many men feel uninitiated, why comfort has not delivered fulfillment, and how hunting reveals a forgotten way of being human that still lives beneath the surface.Time Stamps(00:00) Ecosystem > Economy(00:35) Opening Conversation(05:56) Introducing Bruce McGlenn(09:01) Bruce's Early Hunting Memories(16:26) The Philosophy of Hunting(20:06) Hunting and Family Bonds(39:20) The Emotional Journey of Hunting(49:47) The Ethical Eating Debate(56:46) Personal Reflections on Meat Consumption(01:01:30) The Future of Hunting and Conservation(01:03:03) Bruce's First Hunting Experience(01:06:58) Hunting as a Man's Rite of Passage(01:19:18) Bruce Hunting With His WifeGuest Linkshttps://www.humannaturehunting.com/ https://www.instagram.com/humannaturehunting/ Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

    Repo fails, a measure of collateral flow throughout the entire financial system, soared to more than $300 billion as of the middle of December. It was the highest for any non-quarter end week going back to June 2023. At the same time, borrowing from the Fed's repo facility is way up again as investors refuse to buy the spin from private credit that their portfolios are just fine and from central bankers who say the same thing about the economy. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis------------------------------------------------------------EDU LIVE PRESIDENT'S DAY FEBRUARY 2026If you're a serious investor and want to capitalize on what the monetary system is signaling right now, plus deep discussions about what truly is the greatest threat we all face, join me, Hugh Hendry, George Gammon, Steve Van Metre, Brent Johnson, Mike Green at Eurodollar University's very first Live Event, President's Day Weekend February 2026. To reserve your spot just go here but you better hurry, there aren't many spots left:https://eurodollar-university.com/event-home-page---------------------------------------------------------------------------------EDU's After-Christmas SALEGet $1,000 off an annual subscription to our DDA+ or 40% off an annual membership.

    Send us fan responses! What if “public safety” started before the sirens? We unpack a community policing model built to prevent harm, cool down conflict, and open real-time channels between neighbors and municipal departments. Our focus is practical: live scenario training, de-escalation for domestic violence and high-stress encounters, and a notification framework that helps local agencies recognize who you are, why you're there, and how to coordinate without friction.We talk about how policy shapes police behavior and how community officers can complement that mission by stabilizing situations police can't prioritize—family crises, building disputes, and day-to-day tensions that simmer into emergencies. You'll hear how the program equips officers with scannable IDs, certificates for hospitals and courts, and guidance for notifying sheriffs and departments, aiming for faster verification and fewer escalations during traffic stops, welfare checks, or courthouse visits. “Peaceful compliance” sets the tone: non-threatening posture, precise language, and clear boundaries that lower adrenaline for everyone.Looking ahead, we map a pathway from foundational community work into specialized tracks—bodyguard operations, cybersecurity, counterintelligence—and a forthcoming community crime lab focused on both violent incidents and the financial harms that destabilize neighborhoods. The application process emphasizes character and fit, offers payment flexibility, and connects you with regional directors and ongoing education, including updates on court changes and tech like AI-driven enforcement.If you care about safer streets, fewer crises, and real cooperation with departments, this is a blueprint you can act on.

    Coastal Economy and Tourism face a serious threat as the US government moves forward with a plan to open more than one billion acres of ocean to offshore oil and gas drilling, a decision that could impact beaches, fisheries, tourism jobs, and coastal communities for decades. This episode explains why this proposal matters now and how it could reshape life along the coasts of California, Alaska, and the Gulf of Mexico. Offshore oil drilling is often framed as an economic benefit, but this conversation reveals a very different reality. Pete Stauffer from the Surfrider Foundation breaks down how tourism, recreation, and fishing support millions more jobs than oil and gas, and why a single spill can shut down beaches, fisheries, and local businesses for months or even years. Ocean conservation becomes deeply personal in this episode when Pete shares how communities still feel the impacts of oil spills years later, including business owners who lost income, beaches closed for days, and volunteers stepping up to document pollution when official systems failed. The surprising truth is that offshore drilling is widely unpopular across political lines, and grassroots action has stopped similar plans before.

    This is the strangest economy I've seen in my lifetime. If you just looked at the macro data — the jobs numbers, G.D.P., the stock market — things look pretty normal. But they clearly aren't normal. The Trump administration spent the year upending the global trade system while tech companies spent hundreds of billions of dollars on A.I., a technology that could potentially displace many of our jobs. And people don't feel normal, either.

    America has never been wealthier—so why does it feel so hard to get by?  New York Times economics reporter Talmon Joseph Smith joins Nick and Goldy this week to unpack the growing gap between economic headlines and the lived reality of most Americans. With nearly $200 trillion in national wealth and half the country holding just a sliver of it, they explore why GDP and aggregate growth keep telling a story working families don't recognize—and what that disconnect means for our economy and our politics. Talmon Joseph Smith is an economics reporter currently covering labor markets, inequality, and political economy. His recent work at The New York Times has focused on the tension between headline economic indicators and lived economic reality. His forthcoming book, Clout and Capital, examines how power, influence, and wealth shape economic outcomes in America.
