Tom welcomes back Lawrence Lepard from Equity Management Associates to discuss his new book, "The Big Print: What Happened to America and How Sound Money Will Fix It." Lepard explains that the book aims to simplify complex monetary issues for the average reader, highlighting how the broken monetary system has fueled inflation, wealth inequality, and economic dysfunction. Lepard emphasized that the U.S. monetary system began deteriorating with Nixon's abandonment of the gold standard in 1971, leading to persistent inflation and debt accumulation. He argued that sound money — gold, silver, and Bitcoin — is essential to fix these issues. Gold provides stability, while Bitcoin offers a digital solution to scarcity and divisibility, though it is still volatile. The interview explored how inflation affects everyday life, with Lepard noting that the government's reported inflation rates often underestimate real costs. He criticized the Federal Reserve for prioritizing debt servicing over economic fairness, leading to a cycle of printing money that disproportionately harms wage earners. Lepard also discussed the political challenges in transitioning to sound money, suggesting that widespread public awareness and grassroots support are needed to push for systemic change. He warned against complacency, noting that the U.S. is on a trajectory toward a debt crisis unless decisive action is taken. The conversation concluded with Lepard encouraging listeners to engage with his book to better understand these issues and advocating for a future where sound money restores economic health and fairness.

Tom welcomes back Lawrence Lepard from Equity Management Associates to discuss the current economic macro picture, including rising inflation and potential economic depression despite subdued market crashes. Lepard expresses skepticism towards government statistics suggesting a lack of real growth since 2008 and warns of risks for investors holding traditional assets due to high stock valuations caused by the Federal Reserve's policies like zero interest rates and quantitative easing. The conversation then shifts into the importance of liquidity in driving the stock market and the potential implications for the bond market and US federal government spending. Lepard expresses concern about a potential debt doom loop as rising interest rates could result in yield curve control, leading to inflation. They also discuss Trump's economic policies and the potential impact on the U.S. dollar. They further debate the current state of inflation and its future developments, with Lepard predicting another wave due to increased government spending. Larry discusses the underperformance of miners in both gold and Bitcoin markets and the shift towards gold as a reserve currency due to mistrust in the US dollar's stability. Lastly, Lawrence discusses his upcoming book on monetary issues and the importance of sound money.

Join Justin as he chats with director and producer Bill Lustig about the preservation of cult cinema, his uncle Jake “Raging Bull” LaMotta, jump-starting his career behind the scenes in adult films, Maniac, and more!William "Bill" Lustig bio:"William Lustig was born on February 1, 1955 in Bronx, New York. During his teenage years, Lustig avidly watched a huge volume of lowdown and trashy exploitation fare at numerous 42nd Street grind house theaters in Manhattan and also worked as a movie theater usher in Fort Lee, New Jersey. After graduating from high school, he took a few film classes at New York University.Lustig began his film career in his mid to late teens, working behind-the-scenes in various minor production capacities on a handful of hardcore X-rated porno pictures as well as a production assistant on both "The Seven Ups" and "Death Wish." He made his debut as a director, producer and editor with the hardcore porn features "Hot Honey" and "The Violation of Claudia." Lustig directed both of these movies under the alias Billy Bagg.In 1980, Lustig found himself at the center of a storm of controversy when he made the grim, gory and disturbing slasher sleaze splatter landmark "Maniac," which boasts an incredibly intense performance by the legendary character actor Joe Spinell as a vicious depraved psychopath and plenty of hideously graphic and gruesome make-up effects by horror genre icon Tom Savini. In 1982, Lustig followed up "Maniac" with the tough, gritty and exciting New York urban revenge opus "Vigilante." In 1988, he delivered another winner with the terrific "Maniac Cop," a violent horror action flick about an undead New York police officer on a killing spree which was the first of several cinematic collaborations with fellow maverick independent filmmaker Larry Cohen.Lustig followed up with the 1989 stirring action item "Hit List" and the suspenseful serial killer thriller "Relentless" were likewise on the money excellent and entertaining offerings. However, the two "Maniac Cop" sequels were strictly hit-or-miss affairs: the second one was a worthy successor to the superior original and the third one was a regrettably mediocre entry in the series. Lustig's last film as a director to date was the nifty and enjoyable fright flick "Uncle Sam."Since 1997, William Lustig went on to initially produce retrospective DVD documentaries for Anchor Bay and now currently runs the outstanding DVD label Blue Underground which restores and re-releases popular and little seen cult movies and other grind house action, drama, and horror films."Monsters, Madness and Magic Official Website.

Cet été dans Pépites, on vous propose un hors série consacré à l'histoire de la première réalisatrice de l'histoire, Alice Guy. Il s'agit de la saison 1 de notre podcast Une Autre Histoire, diffusée en octobre 2019. Bonne écoute !Alice a 38 ans. Elle est enceinte de son deuxième enfant lorsqu'elle installe, à Fort-Lee, dans la banlieue de New York, ses nouveaux studios, pas loin de ceux de Carl Lammle, futur fondateur d'Universal et ceux d'Adolphe Zukor, futur patron de la Paramount. Les studios de la Solax sont impressionnants, près de 500 m2 construits, avec au rez-de chaussée, les bureaux d'Alice, ainsi que le département vente et publicité, à l'étage, une salle pour les scénaristes, des laboratoires, une salle de projection et au deuxième étage, les studios de tournage à proprement parler. L'année 1912, celle où Alice s'installe à Fort-Lee, va marquer un tournant dans l'histoire de l'industrie du cinéma américain, donc du film. Alice n'est pas la seule à avoir envie d'envoyer valser le trust d'Edison qui fait la loi dans le cinéma américain et impose une production incessante de films courts, les fameux « one reel », films d'une bobine, pas plus de quinze minutes.Petit à petit le long métrage, film d'une heure et d'avantage va s'imposer comme la norme. Alice va enfin pouvoir faire les films dont elle a envie. Des films longs, des films qui ont plus d'ampleur. Mais alors qu'un film d'une bobine demande deux ou trois jours de préparation, les premiers « trois bobines » mobilisent le personnel pendant tout un mois. Ces films sont amples certes, mais chers, et difficile à produire. Alice a des ambitions artistiques et elle veut garder l'indépendance de la Solax. Mais peut-on vraiment être libre dans un monde qui porte en germe les futurs et hégémoniques studios d'Hollywood ?

In this episode, I asked Rabbi Bergman for a bit of advice in what remains a consistently difficult part of Jewish life: davening. How can we get good at prayer? You may recall that Rabbi Aryeh Lebowitz gave us an excellent and useful bit of guidance in our very first episode. We are revisiting the question now and Rabbi Bergman gives us a bit of help that works not only in davening but, in fact, in a wide variety of challenging tasks. Take a few minutes to listen.Rabbi Sammy Bergman is the rabbi of the Young Israel of Fort Lee, a rebbe at TABC and Heichal HaTorah, and a good friend.
The New Jersey Attorney General's Office is investigating a fatal police shooting in Fort Lee after officers shot and killed a woman early Sunday morning. Her brother called 9-1-1, reporting she was having a mental health crisis and holding a knife. Officials say the woman approached officers with the knife. Meanwhile, the city Transportation Department is rolling out a proposal aiming to make the streets surrounding Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn safer and increase pedestrian space. Finally, New York City Mayor Eric Adams has declared a state of emergency in city jails over the weekend, halting parts of a new law that limits solitary confinement to four hours. WNYC's Michael Hill speaks with Public Advocate Jumaane Williams for his reaction.
Tom welcomes back Lawrence Lepard from EMA2 Equity Management Associates for a discussion on economic trends and the Federal Reserve's monetary policy. Lepard expresses concerns about the Fed's potential acceptance of a higher inflation rate due to rising U.S. interest expenses and a large budget deficit. Jerome Powell, the Fed chairman, is also contemplating rate cuts to support employment levels and government finances amidst ongoing inflation and uncertainty in unemployment data and Gross Domestic Product growth figures. Larry and Tom contemplate potential rate cut timelines, the possibility of a shift in Fed tactics, concerns over financial crises, and the potential impact of political events on the Fed's decisions before the upcoming election. The conversation shifts overseas to Japan's economic situation, with Lepard predicting that gold will reach new all-time highs due to Japan's reliance on imported oil and its shift towards purchasing oil in yen instead of dollars, potentially leading to a surge in gold demand and higher prices. Larry anticipates a decade-long bull market for gold and silver stocks as they are expected to double or even triple in value within the next 12 to 18 months due to higher metal prices, increased earnings, and potential dividends or stock buybacks. Larry expresses his investment preferences, focusing on companies that pay dividends or hold precious metals as treasury assets. He also emphasizes the importance of responsible capital management following lessons learned from previous cycles. Despite concerns about mergers and acquisitions for large companies during this period, Larry suggests they might pay higher prices later in the bull market instead of seizing opportunities at low prices now. Larry discusses his current projects, which include completing a quarterly report and writing a white paper on why sound money is crucial to solving the world's problems. He proposes making gold, silver, and Bitcoin legal tender, abolishing the Federal Reserve, letting banks fail if they engage in risky practices, and eliminating the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as steps towards progressing towards sounder money.

Living in New Jersey you can find yourself often wracking your brain for any explanation for absolutely insane sketchy things you see happening around you on the daily. When journalist Jesse Coburn started seeing cars with temporary NJ license plates all over his Brooklyn neighborhood, he started digging. He uncovered a massive black market of "ghost tags" - fake temp plates - that allow drivers to skirt the law with dangerous and even fatal results. His work took him from Bridgeton to Fort Lee and won him a Polk award, one of journalism's most prestigious prizes. Jersey Angle hosts Brian Donohue and Mark Bonamo sat down with him to discuss the all too believable tale of New Jersey as the kitchen where sketchy dangerous schemes are cooked up.

Tom welcomes back Lawrence Lepard of Equity Management Associates back to the show. Larry discuses the current inflation outlook and compares it to the 1970s, noting the current driving forces are different but "rhyme" with the past. Expectations play a significant role in inflation, with people believing prices will rise. The International Swaps and Deals Association (ISDA) has written to the Federal Reserve Board suggesting that the market for treasuries is becoming less liquid, which could be problematic. The ISDA recommends eliminating the Supplementary Leverage Ratio (SLR), allowing banks to buy more treasuries without repercussions and potentially monetizing federal deficits. This move would increase money supply growth, currency dilution, and demand for sound money investments. Mr. Lepard believes that the US federal budget deficit will continue to rise, with the current administration accelerating fiscal irresponsibility. He predicts that sound money assets like gold and Bitcoin will increase in value, with gold potentially reaching $3,000 per ounce by year-end. The Federal Reserve is balancing three mandates, but its emergency powers have led to increased leverage and complex trades. The federal government's debt is not sustainable, and when investors take notice, it could lead to a sharp repricing of bonds with significant consequences for the economy. Lepard is optimistic about a return to sound money standards post-hyperinflation but sees no signs of this happening soon. He believes that gold can go as high as $10,000 per ounce and encourages investors to allocate a good portion of their assets in things the government can't print. The current market conditions provide an opportunity for investors to consider selling stocks and buying gold as protection against economic uncertainty and stock market volatility.

But here is the Best of 2023.Stepping into the past has never felt as intimate and revealing as when Mary Ann Maisano takes us through the winding roads of her father's taxi empire in Fort Lee. With a captivating blend of ingenuity and nostalgia, we learn how Joe's Taxi became the heartbeat of a community, all before the digital age. As we traverse these charming tales, you'll also find yourself amidst the laughter and unexpected insights from my own escapades in the world of wedding bands, where the music often tells its own untold stories.Imagine packing up your life and setting sail for Italy with nothing but a suitcase and a dream — that's exactly the leap Paul Spadoni and his daughters took, and their tales of 'la dolce vita' with a twist will leave you in both stitches and awe. Adding more flavors to our cultural mosaic, Peter Francesi steps into the mix, painting a vivid picture of his family's Brooklyn grocery store and Italian-American life that bridges continents and generations. Their stories are rich, evocative, and a testament to the enduring spirit of those who chase the American dream, no matter where it may lead.Wrapping up our journey, we honor the profound narratives of those who've navigated the turbulent seas of immigration and the shock of a new cultural landscape. We hear a soul-stirring account of a man's odyssey from a tiny Italian village to the vast expanses of the United States, his life interlaced with historical tapestries and the saving grace of American soldiers. And as we reflect on the power of language and identity, our guest recounts a childhood of multilingualism that weaves through the fabric of family, heritage, and the heartwarming community of an Italian restaurant.

Tom welcomes back Lawrence Lepard of Equity Management Associates to the show. Lawrence expresses skepticism towards the reported 4.9% annualized GDP growth in the US, believing it to be falsely inflated due to the exclusion of essential goods like gasoline and food. He also discusses the government's history of manipulating inflation and employment reports, urging investors to take all government information with a grain of salt and only consider what is true when making investment decisions. Lepard touches upon the current state of the media and the role of the internet in disintermediating large organizations like CNN and Fox News. They agree that the internet allows for more direct access to truth, but caution against the abundance of "noise" on the web. The conversation shifts to the financial markets, with Lepard stating that they are currently broken. He points to the recent failure of Silicon Valley Bank as evidence, and believes that the government's response of printing more money is only hiding the truth. He predicts that inflation will be a major problem in the next 10 years and advises investors to consider this dynamic when making investment decisions. Lepard discusses the possibility of a sovereign currency crisis in the US, similar to those seen in third world countries. They point to the high interest expense of one trillion dollars a year due to the deficit, and estimate that this will only increase in the next few years. They also discuss the fragility of the world's economy, bank losses, and the potential consequences of excessive borrowing. The conversation then turns to the role of gold in protecting against inflation and the current divergence between gold mining stocks and the price of gold. Lepard predicts that gold will rise to $3000 in the next five years and that silver will follow suit. He also discusses the potential for silver to see a 100% increase in value in the next 18 months. Lepard concludes the interview by sharing his dislike for central banks and discussing his website and fund, which manages investments in gold mining stocks. He notes that while his slots are currently open, they may fill up quickly when the bull market returns.

According to Lawrence, investment communities and hedge funds have yet to enter the gold market, with stocks in a downwave and the price of gold breaking its 1365 ceiling. Larry suggests investors should transition to commodities such as gold, silver, copper, oil and lithium to protect themselves against inflation and circumstances of economic downturn.

Tom welcomes Lawrence Lepard from Equity Management Associates back to the show. Lawrence discusses the rivets on the global economy that are continuing to snap. We have had a number of bank failures in a matter of weeks, part of a larger pattern going back years. We are seeing large commercial mortgage failures and companies walking away, and Lawrence believes more pain is yet to come in the banking sector, with one to two trillion in write downs. The Fed is likely to intervene once again, and something is likely to break soon. Lawrence discusses the U.S. debt maturities, and how the U.S. government soon will have to pay over a trillion to meet its obligations annually. The math arguably doesn't work, and the Fed is trapped. The market will force them to pivot at some point, and they will do whatever they can to hold the system together. He explains why it is important to hold money that can't be printed, like gold, silver, or bitcoin. He advises to take the long view and recognize why you are holding it, as in the context of saving your wealth, since things could break quickly. Gold, silver, and Bitcoin could move rapidly in a crisis. Some of the problems could be improved by increasing the money supply. But in a debt based system, there is no going back. Consumers are feeling the pinch and borrowing more from credit isn't a long-term solution. He discusses which age groups are most at risk in a downturn. Boomers hold significant amounts of real estate and equities, and when they realize that inflation is staying, where will they move their capital to preserve wealth? The world has not yet adapted to the new paradigm of high inflation. There is a multi-generational buying opportunity in the gold stocks, and many holders are tired of the market. If you are a contrarian, you realize people will wake up and these stocks will take off. We must understand the inevitable nature of what is coming. When the system comes unglued, there may be no time to get out. Silicon Valley Bank collapsed in hours, and it is entirely possible things could unravel rapidly and at scale.

TAMIL ROBINSON: Grew from an artist, painter and master airbrush artist, to fashion, crediting his caring instructor Eleta Caldwell at the prestigious Performing Arts High School in Newark for his true artistic development where Robinson free hand sketched, drew, painted, and became a classically trained artist. Robinson worked for the architect firm Campos & Associates for two years where he developed and strengthened his eye for perspective, planting a seed for his love of shapes which would later play a major role increating his signature geo-patterns and logo for his own fashion brand, House of AMIAT, which then was in the May issues of UKs VANITY FAIR; GLAMOUR, VOGUE and will be in the June and July issues of VOGUE as well!! Employed at the interior design house Concepts Office Interiors in Fort Lee, NJ, he drew two-dimensional drawings, furniture plans, and gained experience working with textiles. After which AMIAT (All Moods In All Textiles) brand was born with an architectural frame of mind, with a logo that symbolizes strength and balance. Before designing luxury fashion, Robinson kicked-off his journey as a streetwear designer. When Robinson met his fashion mentor Glen Senior, a pattern maker who took him under his wings. Senior urged Tamil to use his natural talents to create textile patterns in his fashion designs, taught Robinson discipline and how to develop a true aesthetic when designing. Robinson learned the business aspect of fashion and began building his fashion connections when he worked in several areas of the design industry. Tamil served as a freelance designer and consultant on Seventh Avenue in New York City, delving into building his sports licensing portfolio with companies like Puma, NFL, and more, which led to working professionally with major corporate companies to design some of the most high-profile apparel projects like the NFL Pro-Bowl All-Star uniforms that Tom Brady, Michael Strahan and other hall-of-famers have worn. Robinson also worked with Reebok's NBA division where he designed Allen Iverson's I-3 sports collection. He traveled to other countries like China, Korea, and Japan to learn even more about the fashion business. This gained Tamil the experience of working closely with fabric mills, cut and sew factories and expanded his creative nature.

For the first time, U.S. Army bases will be named after women and Black officers instead of only white men. Fort Lee, named for Robert E. Lee, became Fort Gregg-Adams for two Black officers who made significant contributions to the Army. It is one of nine renamed bases, part of a Congressional and military effort to commemorate American heroes rather than traitors. Nick Schfirin reports.

On March 16, 2023, historian Connor Williams discussed his role as lead historian for the U.S. Congress' Naming Commission, with particular emphasis on the process of recommending new names for the three Virginia forts—Fort Lee, Fort A.P. Hill, and Fort Pickett. Though the Civil War's battles were settled on the fields of our nation more than a century and half ago, the fields of our collective memories continue to be rife with conflict. This has especially proved the case over the last few years, as some Civil War monuments come down and other interpretations go up, sparking important questions. What stories should be commemorated? What features should be highlighted? What role should the Confederacy play in the history of the United States? Should we memorialize Confederates, and if so, how? How might these struggles play out on Virginia's historic and contemporary landscape? Connor Williams will discuss how our society arrived at these questions, and where we might go from here, investigating all these issues from his recent experience, and especially through the stories of the three Virginia forts for which the commission recommended new names. Before serving with the Naming Commission, Connor pursued his doctorate in history and African American Studies at Yale University, and he maintains an affiliation with both departments. He is currently completing A Race on the Frontier: African American Lives, Labors and Communities in Northern California, 1850–1915, a book project that examines the political struggles, economic opportunities, labor strategies, and networks of organization and support Black Americans forged throughout the Golden State between the Gold Rush and the Great War. The content and opinions expressed in these presentations are solely those of the speaker and not necessarily of the Virginia Museum of History & Culture.
