Episode #481: From Rothschilds to Robinhood: Cycles of Finance and Control

Crazy Wisdom

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop speaks with Michael Jagdeo, a headhunter and founder working with Exponent Labs and The Syndicate, about the cycles of money, power, and technology that shape our world. Their conversation touches on financial history through The Ascent of Money by Niall Ferguson and William Bagehot's The Money Market, the rise and fall of financial centers from London to New York and the new Texas Stock Exchange, the consolidation of industries and the theory of oligarchical collectivism, the role of AI as both tool and chaos agent, Bitcoin and “quantitative re-centralization,” the dynamics of exponential organizations, and the balance between collectivism and individualism. Jagdeo also shares recruiting philosophies rooted in stories like “stone soup,” frameworks like Yu-Kai Chou's Octalysis and the User Type Hexad, and book recommendations including Salim Ismail's Exponential Organizations and Arthur Koestler's The Act of Creation. Along the way they explore servant leadership, Price's Law, Linux and open source futures, religion as an operating system, and the cyclical nature of civilizations. You can learn more about Michael Jagdeo or reach out to him directly through Twitter or LinkedIn.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:05 Stewart Alsop introduces Michael Jagdeo, who shares his path from headhunting actuaries and IT talent into launching startups with Exponent Labs and The Syndicate.00:10 They connect recruiting to financial history, discussing actuaries, The Ascent of Money, and William Bagehot's The Money Market on the London money market and railways.00:15 The Rothschilds, institutional knowledge, and Corn Laws lead into questions about New York as a financial center and the quiet launch of the Texas Stock Exchange by Citadel and BlackRock.00:20 Capital power, George Soros vs. the Bank of England, chaos, paper clips, and Orwell's oligarchical collectivism frame industry consolidation, syndicates, and stone soup.00:25 They debate imperial conquest, bourgeoisie leisure, the decline of the middle class, AI as chaos agent, digital twins, Sarah Connor, Godzilla, and nuclear metaphors.00:30 Conversation turns to Bitcoin, “quantitative re-centralization,” Jack Bogle, index funds, Robinhood micro bailouts, and AI as both entropy and negative entropy.00:35 Jagdeo discusses Jim Keller, Tenstorrent, RISC-V, Nvidia CUDA, exponential organizations, Price's Law, bureaucracy, and servant leadership with the parable of stone soup.00:40 Recruiting as symbiosis, biophilia, trust, Judas, Wilhelm Reich, AI tools, Octalysis gamification, Jordan vs. triangle offense, and the role of laughter in persuasion emerge.00:45 They explore religion as operating systems, Greek gods, Comte's stages, Nietzsche, Jung, nostalgia, scientism, and Jordan Peterson's revival of tradition.00:50 The episode closes with Linux debates, Ubuntu, Framer laptops, PewDiePie, and Jagdeo's nod to Liminal Snake on epistemic centers and turning curses into blessings.Key InsightsOne of the central insights of the conversation is how financial history repeats through cycles of consolidation and power shifts. Michael Jagdeo draws on William Bagehot's The Money Market to explain how London became the hub of European finance, much like New York later did, and how the Texas Stock Exchange signals a possible southern resurgence of financial influence in America. The pattern of wealth moving with institutional shifts underscores how markets, capital, and politics remain intertwined.Jagdeo and Alsop emphasize that industries naturally oligarchize. Borrowing from Orwell's “oligarchical collectivism,” Jagdeo notes that whether in diamonds, food, or finance, consolidation emerges as economies of scale take over. This breeds syndicates and monopolies, often interpreted as conspiracies but really the predictable outcome of industrial maturation.Another powerful theme is the stone soup model of collaboration. Jagdeo applies this parable to recruiting, showing that no single individual can achieve large goals alone. By framing opportunities as shared ventures where each person adds their own ingredient, leaders can attract top talent while fostering genuine symbiosis.Technology, and particularly AI, is cast as both chaos agent and amplifier of human potential. The conversation likens AI to nuclear power—capable of great destruction or progress. From digital twins to Sarah Connor metaphors, they argue AI represents not just artificial intelligence but artificial knowledge and action, pushing humans to adapt quickly to its disruptive presence.The discussion of Bitcoin and digital currencies reframes decentralization as potentially another trap. Jagdeo provocatively calls Bitcoin “quantitative re-centralization,” suggesting that far from liberating individuals, digital currencies may accelerate neo-feudalism by creating new oligarchies and consolidating financial control in unexpected ways.Exponential organizations and the leverage of small teams emerge as another key point. Citing Price's Law, Jagdeo explains how fewer than a dozen highly capable individuals can now achieve billion-dollar valuations thanks to open source hardware, AI, and network effects. This trend redefines scale, making nimble collectives more powerful than bureaucratic giants.Finally, the episode highlights the cyclical nature of civilizations and belief systems. From Rome vs. Carthage to Greek gods shifting with societal needs, to Nietzsche's “God is dead” and Jung's view of recurring deaths of divinity, Jagdeo argues that religion, ideology, and operating systems reflect underlying incentives. Western nostalgia for past structures, whether political or religious, risks idolatry, while the real path forward may lie in new blends of individualism, collectivism, and adaptive tools like Linux and AI.

Nassim Haramein, mathematical physicist and director of the International Space Federation, has spent three decades chasing the holy grail of science — unifying quantum mechanics and general relativity. Building on Einstein and Rosen's 1930s equations, wormholes, and failed proton radius predictions, Haramein claims a simple tweak unlocks the secrets of the proton, the strong force, gravity, and the fluid dynamics of spacetime itself. In this conversation, we explore zero-point energy, the quantum vacuum, and a vision for future technologies rooted in a unified theory of physics.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showOUR HOMEBREWED MUSICCheck out our band's new album:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-hereVinyl pre-orders available now: https://buy.stripe.com/14A5kC3Od5d21Ms7zPdEs09Follow Nassim at https://spacefed.com/00:00 Go!

The only way Edwina could convince her husband to watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer was to do a podcast about it. This week, we unravel Entropy. An episode so on-the-nose with its title, it might as well be screaming. Lies unravel, friendships fracture, and revenge gets messy. It's the emotional equivalent of a slow-motion car crash, and just when you think it can't get worse, someone opens their mouth and makes it worse. But through all the wreckage and emotional chaos, there is just the tiniest, cruelest glimmer of hope to keep us from collapsing into the void.

American Cultural Entropy

In physics, entropy measures disorder. Without energy, order breaks down. Culture behaves the same way. Without steady effort, values decay and systems drift back toward what is easy and familiar. This is cultural entropy: the slow pull that undoes progress.Modern anti-racist America often sees its enemy as open hate—racists and extremists. These groups exist but are small. The greater threat is apathy. It is the slow loss of attention and effort. Entropy does not shout. It dissolves gains when energy fades.Entropy means systems move toward disorder unless energy is added. Culture follows this law. Justice and equality require maintenance. When effort stops, laws lose force and old habits return. Progress is fragile because entropy is constant.Most Americans are not activists or extremists. They are busy, distracted, and avoid conflict. They may agree with ideals but do little to live them. They wait for storms to pass. This indifference is where entropy thrives. If most people drift this way, victories need constant energy to hold.The Civil Rights Movement reshaped laws, yet schools resegregated and housing equality stalled. Occupy Wall Street rose, then vanished. Black Lives Matter surged, then lost momentum. When energy faded, systems drifted back. Entropy filled the gap.Entropy explains backlash and apathy. People pushed too hard may resist, clinging to the normal. Others simply stop caring. They nod at slogans, then return to habits. Old patterns reappear. Entropy needs no hate—only neglect.Activism often targets symbols—statues, names, language. These fights gain attention but rarely block entropy. They can trigger defensiveness. Real change needs structures and habits that endure when attention fades.The rollback of affirmative action, weakening of voting protections, and creeping segregation were not driven by loud hate. They happened because energy waned. Protections eroded and old inequities returned. This is entropy at work.The new anti-racist America must see the true opponent: the quiet force of entropy. People conserve energy and return to the familiar. To overcome this, movements must sustain effort. They must make progress part of daily life, not only moments of crisis.Cultural entropy does not attack but wears down progress. The fight is not won with dramatic battles but with steady work. Real change requires systems strong enough to resist decay on their own. The future depends on resisting the quiet pull back into disorder.

America = Afghanistan

Afghanistan has long been called the “graveyard of empires.” Powerful nations have marched into its mountains with plans to conquer and reform it. They built schools, sent aid, and installed new governments. For a time, the changes seemed to work. Yet each empire—British, Soviet, American—eventually left defeated. Afghanistan absorbed their energy, took what it needed, and when the invaders left, the country reverted to what it had always been.This happens because Afghanistan is built on deep-rooted inertia and entropy. Inertia means it stays the same unless acted on by massive force. Entropy means that new systems fall apart unless energy is constantly applied. Foreign powers pour in energy, but Afghanistan outlasts them. When they tire, their reforms collapse. Afghanistan remains.America works the same way, but with movements instead of armies. Movements arrive like cultural invaders. They come with slogans, protests, policies, and demands. They intend to reshape the country. And for a moment, they seem to succeed. Corporations join in. Schools rewrite programs. Politicians pass laws. The country mirrors the movement's ideals. Those who play along benefit—money, status, approval.But this compliance is tactical, not permanent. Like Afghanistan pandering to foreign powers, America gives movements everything they ask for. It lets them win visible victories. It drains their energy. When the movement's force burns out, America disperses what's left and rolls back the changes. The culture returns to its old state.Afghanistan's resistance comes from its tribal nature. Loyalties are local, not national. Foreigners misunderstand this and fail to control it. America's resistance comes from its own version of tribalism. It is a federation by name, but states and regions behave like independent clans. Rural and urban cultures mistrust each other. The South distrusts the coasts. Local identities overpower national unity. Movements trying to impose sweeping reform run into this wall of local resistance. On the surface, people comply. Underneath, they hold to their way of life and wait for the storm to pass.Afghanistan's strategy is patience. It pretends to comply, takes foreign aid, and waits for the invader to weaken. America does the same with movements. Civil Rights, affirmative action, voting rights, Occupy Wall Street, Black Lives Matter, DEI, COVID lockdowns, climate change initiatives, and now Free Palestine—all have followed the same pattern. They arrive with force. America appears to transform. Then energy fades. The reforms weaken. The old patterns return.This is not hate. It is cultural physics. Inertia keeps the country tied to what it knows. Entropy erodes new structures unless they are constantly reinforced. When energy is gone, rollback begins.Afghanistan is a black hole for foreign empires. They pour in power, wealth, and ideals, only to be swallowed. America is a black hole for social movements. It swallows their energy, their victories, their slogans. The reforms scatter into its vast social fabric until nothing is left. The movement dies, but the country remains.Afghanistan waits out armies. America waits out movements. Both drain what tries to change them. Both give everything demanded during occupation only to undo it later. Both survive by being patient, by letting outsiders or reformers burn themselves out.Afghanistan is the graveyard of empires.America is the graveyard of movements.Both absorb, endure, and remain unchanged at their core.

Understanding EntropyEntropy is a term from physics, but its truth applies far beyond science. The second law of thermodynamics tells us that in a closed system, entropy—disorder always increases unless energy is put into maintaining or restoring order.Disorder is the natural drift: Why Intention MattersProgress doesn't happen by chance.It requires clarity. Focus. A decision to move forward, even when it's uncomfortable. Your life is not static. You're either building or breaking. Growing or declining.Evolving or eroding.Practical TakeawaysHere are three things you can start doing today to resist entropy:1. Set daily intentions.Don't just let the day happen to you. Decide what matters and move toward it.2. Audit your energy.Are you investing in things that grow you, or just reacting to distractions?3. Maintain your systems.Your habits, your routines, your space—these need your consistent care. Without it, chaos creeps in.

What are the benefits and risks of developing advanced AI? What kind of safety precautions could we take? Could we risk never making future discoveries, by over-limiting today's AI in pre-emptive safety regulations?In this episode we get a sceptical evaluation of the complex debate that's currently raging on artificial Intelligence safety, aiming to get a balanced view of the extremely useful applications versus the currently hugely publicised existential risks, and evaluate the safety measures and legislative frameworks that are being considered to help avoid risk to humans. To do this we trace the path from today's artificial intelligence right up the ever steeper curve towards artificial super intelligence; we risk risk assess the unpredictability of emergent properties of such systems; we assess the future of work, and the potential loss of control of our culture as AI starts to outnumber us and generate more and more of the media we consume.My guest today has a unique take on these issues which took me by surprise, as he disagrees with the alarmism and call for harsh regulation, whilst openly predicting that emergent properties will more or less guarantee safety hazards. The fact that he has been at the cutting edge of computer science for over 40 years, creating computer language and Ai solutions, makes him well placed to provide a counterpoint to the AI safety campaigners calling for collective action. He is of course physicist, computer scientist and tech entrepreneur Stephen Wolfram. In 1987 he left academia at Caltech and Princeton behind and devoted himself to his own computer systems at his company Wolfram Research. He's published many blog articles about his ideas, and written many influential books including “A new kind of science”, “A project to find the fundamental theory of physics”, and “Computer modelling and simulation of dynamic systems”, and most recently “The Second law” about the mystery of Entropy. What we discussed:00:00 Intro. 06:30 Stephen's first forays into neural nets in the early 80s.09:30 Cellular Automata.11:00 Can you make the knowledge of the world available via computers?13:00 Wolfram Alpha: A non-AI AI. 17:45 Can AI solve science?22:00 AI is great at rough answers, worse at the detail.33:00 Artificial General intelligence, A.G.I.42:00 The pros & cons of super intelligence.47:40 Chat GBT's unpredicted peculiarities.54:00 The spread of mistruth. 58:00 AI and the future of work.01:05:20 Businesses leading automation push.01:09:00 AI will outnumber us and network, changing our culture.01:11:00 AI will follow a banal ‘mean'.01:16:30 The AI Safety debate.01:21:00 We have no choice, it will be developed anyway.01:22:00 Ai systems may have feelings, we don't know.01:25:00 Stephen's non-interventionist safety approach.References: Stepehn Wolfram, “A project to find the fundamental theory of physics”,Stephen Wolfram, “The Second Law” The History of “Neural Nets” since 1943, (Warren McCulloch and Walter Pitts paper)Stephen Wolfram, “Can AI solve science?” article

Way of the Bible

Play Episode Listen Later May 14, 2025 37:46


Welcome to Episode #171 of the Way of the Bible podcast. This is the third of eight episodes in our Twenty-Second mini-series entitled The Return of Jesus Christ. On today's episode, we're going to take a second high level flyover of the Bible to continue the case for why Jesus is coming back. What we'll discover today is that there is more to the story than we've been told. Once we see this, the question becomes, “Has the withholding of this information been intentional or a misalignment that over time, took us far away from the intended target?”When you're starting with infinity and forever, the hardest thing to do is to know with certainty where to start. Which reminds me, one of the reasons modern science knows that the cosmos is not eternal is based on what science shows.  In the realm of science, there is a field called thermodynamics that concerns itself with the fluidity of relationships between heat, work, temperature, and energy. Certain maxims of thermodynamics are considered so undeniable, they are considered to be unchangeable laws found in nature. The second law of thermodynamics concerns a concept called entropy. Entropy in simplest form is work accomplished by ordered molecular motion. Think of the Budweiser Clydesdale horses hooked up to the beer wagon versus the same team of horses running loose in a ten-acre paddock. Which of the two teams of horses at the same moment in time just described (hooked to a wagon or running loose) is capable of performing more work than the other?We observe, the more organized the energy, the more work that can be done. The more organized, the more work, the Lower the entropy. Disorganization or randomness of the energy results in a higher entropy, meaning less work can be done. Once you get this, “knowing what entropy is,” everything you encounter in life will suddenly begin to make sense. The second law of thermodynamics assumes a closed system. We established this on our last episode that modern science considers the cosmos a closed system. According to modern science, our four-dimensional space-time is a sealed box. Nothing can either enter or exit the box. However, for about the past two decades science has been having a branding crisis as there is now evidence the box may be leaking. But the mainstream public will never hear about that if science can help it. In this closed system, the 2nd Law of thermodynamics states that entropy (a measure of disorder or randomness) will always tend to increase. Or put another way, no matter how many times you clean your house, it will always move toward a state of greater disorder and randomness. According to this Law, given enough time, all energy within the cosmos will reach equilibrium, bringing the temperature of the cosmos to a level where there is no gradient in temperature. In this environment where energy is equally distributed, no work can be done. But that's not what we are experiencing.The postulation goes that if the cosmos was eternal, it would already have had enough time to suffer this heat death and should not exist at all as we now experience it. Therefore, the cosmos by inference, must have had a beginning. It is not eternal.DrZ, that was a lot of I've never thought about and don't see the tie-in to the topic. Great observation and glad you think that, because that's just the crack in the floor that reveals a huge rabbit hole below. I urge you to let your head hurt a little as you consider what is really going on around you. All is not as it seems. We'll take a quick peek under the pavement and then dig into some healthy content.
