Philip Newman, Metals Focus   Notable Quotes: “We're able to provide a global platform, which is increasingly important when people are looking for global liquidity with their investment products.” -Lorne Whitmore “Clearly the level of demand that we're seeing for retail minted bullion products are not what they were in the heyday of 2020, through 2022, and parts of 2023– up until just after the banking crisis we did see a pickup, but prior to that I think the whole marketplace was seeing a little bit of a slow down and then things gradually sort of moderated, and they continue to be at more moderate levels of demand.” -Lorne Whitmore “Being a vaulter of those assets, it really does give us quite an interesting vantage point to observe not just the coin and bar business, but some institutionally driven collective vehicles.” -Lorne Whitmore “Obviously our core mandate is to provide circulation coinage for commerce, as well as the distribution of coins, which is so at the core of what we do. However, we have important roles to support the mining industry, as well as the financial services industry, through our refinery and through our products.” -Lorne Whitmore About World Gold Council We are a membership organization that champions the role gold plays as a strategic asset, shaping the future of a responsible and accessible gold supply chain.

My name is Heather. And I know what it's like to live on autopilot, “sell yourself short” and live within limits of societal and self-imposed limitations. But I also know what it's like to break free from that, redefine what's possible and achieve big goals! There were so many things that almost stopped me along the way, and my goal is to help stop the things that are stopping you from discovering what you are truly capable of! It's not too late to change your story and reach your own podium finish (whatever that may be). Trust me – I've done it! Heather Moyse is one of Canada's great multi-sport athletes.

We recently invited the Royal Canadian Mint to our vault. While they were there, we did an exclusive Podcast with them. It was great to learn what separates them from other mints. We got to ask them the same questions we get asked every day by our customers. Is .9999 really better than .999? How did you get rid of the milk spotting issue? Why Maples vs Eagles? And many more. We hope you enjoy this exclusive access to one of the world's largest mints, brought to you by SD Bullion.

In October of this year, the Royal Canadian Mint announced that it was putting out a coin celebrating a 1970 UFO case from the city of Duncan on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. This is the sixth in a series of the Mint's Unexplained Phenomena series of 1 oz. $20 face value silver coins depicting famous Canadian UFO cases. TheDuncan incident, involving a sighting by a nurse working in the Cowichan District Hospital, occurred in the midst of a flap in the area. It was investigated by John Magor, editor and publisher of the Canadian UFO Report, and he provided a report to the Victoria Times. The Victoria Times published an article on the case on page 1 of the January 5, 1970 edition (page 10 of the pdf), and Magor published his version in the Volume 1, Number 7, summer issue of the Canadian UFO Report. News of the coin celebrating the incident prompted two men, who were both attending a party in the area at the time, to separately come forward, each with his own individual explanation of what was actually seen. We wrote about this incident in a blog headlined “A UFO and Occupants in British Columbia, Canada,” posted on the Podcast UFO website on July 16, 2022, which is where the description of the incident comes from.

If you have concerns about inflation or government overreach or weathering the next crisis, then you need to watch this gripping interview with David McAlvany, CEO of McAlvany Financial Companies and author of The Intentional Legacy. David has appeared as a guest or panelist on CNBC, Bloomberg, Fox and other media outlets. He also hosts his own weekly podcast. Together, he and Dr. Bussey discuss digital currencies, universal basic income, and the soul-defining importance of finding one's purpose. Their conversation brings together the philosophical and the highly practical in a lively, informative, and thought-provoking way. Why was it illegal to own gold in the US from 1933 to 1975? Who benefits most from low interest rates? What happens when we allow the PhD standard to replace the gold standard when it comes to our banking system? To learn more, check out the McAlvany Weekly Commentary (unique, intelligent, thought-provoking weekly summary of the markets, geopolitics and US domestic issues) or the McAlvany Wealth Management (planning retirement, inheritance, asset management etc.).

Tom welcomes Ken Lewis to the program. Ken is CEO of APMEX and OneGold. Ken explains the origins of OneGold and what motivated them to build the platform. They wanted to take on ETF's by allowing investors to buy directly, seamlessly, and intuitively. You can create an account and purchase gold just above spot in only a few minutes. Investors can have partial ownership of a bar and be able to convert this ownership into physical delivery. OneGold is trying to make it easy to either take physical or keep metal on the system. He explains the differences between ETFs and OneGold. Unlike the ETFs, OneGold can't sell metal they don't have in the vault. He notes, they have more exposure to the financial markets because they trade 24/7, and he outlines their hedging requirements. Ken discusses the different countries where vaulting is available and their plans to expand into other currencies. There are jurisdictional and legal differences between vaults, and they try to be as transparent as possible. Their original vision for OneGold never fully materialized because miners and banks were reluctant to adopt new ideas. OneGold launched in Canada and utilized a pooled account with the Royal Canadian Mint. They felt that having the government of Canada behind the Mint brought several advantages. Premiums are moving higher from wholesalers, and the supply options are increasingly limited. He says, "Silver eagles are in short supply and by June he believes they will run out." He demonstrates how OneGold customers can use their balance to buy any product they want from APMEX. Ken explains why they are revising some of their terms and conditions by removing obsolete policies and clarifying specific details. He explains why investors' silver can be segregated and pooled as this allows investors to own fractions of a bar. Ken discusses their methods and practices around privacy and cybersecurity. They are careful to hold the minimum information legally required for their customers and provide ways for removing unnecessary customer data upon request.

Tom welcomes Nick Barisheff, President and CEO of BMG, to the show. Nick started the BMG fund in 1998 to create a safe precious metals product that qualified for Canadian retirement accounts. He wanted it structured so that there could be no interference or encumbrance with the bullion. He discusses the risk of confiscation of gold and why the correct term should be "expropriation." Currently, the chance of this action seems remote since the price would need to be a lot higher. It's more likely that governments would instead tax excessive profits on these types of investments. When you compare US debt levels to the current price of gold, we are still quite undervalued. Money printing has grown dramatically, and soon they will need to stimulate the economy again. Further defaults are coming this fall, and we will likely see a pattern of cascading failures. These failures will occur across sectors like commercial real estate. Also, there is a general exodus occurring from the cities to the country. Nick discusses the increasing demand for metals and the possibilities for a failure to deliver in futures. He cautions that the Comex can always change the rules. China has stated that they want to have more gold than the United States. Both China and Russia have been keeping all the gold they produce. China has been acquiring gold through their sovereign wealth funds while under-reporting. He thinks China will not announce they're true holdings until shortages develop. When China proves ownership of 10,000 tons, that will also reveal to the world that the US no longer has the gold it claims.

Talking Points From This Episode His funds for Canadian InvestorsPortfolio allocations in today's environment.Risk of "expropriation" of gold assets.Default cycle in commercial real estate.China and Russia gold holdings. For the past 20 years, Nick Barisheff has focused on the world of precious metals and the benefits available to investors who hold physical gold, silver, and platinum bullion. As president and CEO of BMG, he uses his understanding of the precious metals markets to develop strategies, products, and services for clients looking to integrate bullion into their portfolios. His view on the precious metals sector is that gold, silver, and platinum, in bullion form, are a vital component of a client's financial program and should make up at least 10 percent or more of a well-diversified portfolio. In 2002, Nick launched BMG and BMG BullionFund, Canada's only RRSP eligible open-end mutual fund trust that purchases equal dollar amounts of gold, silver, and platinum bullion. Subsequently, BMG Gold BullionFund and the BMG BullionBars program were launched as part of its growth initiative. The BMG Silver Bullion Fund was launched in 2016. Nick specifically designed all BMG products to avoid compromising any of the fundamental attributes of precious metals ownership: absolute liquidity, no counterparty risk, and no reliance on management skills. In 2011, BMG became an Associate Member of the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA). The only other equally accredited company in Canada is the Royal Canadian Mint, the Crown Corporation that produces Canada's currency. Widely recognized as an international bullion expert, Nick has written numerous articles on bullion and current market trends that are published on various news and business websites. He has appeared on BNN, CBC, CNBC, and Sun Media.

The Royal Canadian Mint posted their newest collectors coins on social media. One of which commemorates Manitoba's famous Falcon Lake UFO incident in a 1 oz. pure silver coin shaped like an alien head. Plus it glows in the dark.

Stefan Michalak, an industrial mechanic, ventured out into the wilderness around Falcon Lake looking to prospect for quartz and silver. While Stefan was out he was startled to see two cigar shaped objects in the sky. One descended and landed on a flat rock. When the object landed, it took on the appearance of a disc rather than a cigar. Believing that the craft may have been a secret military vehicle, Stefan, for about 30 minutes, sketched what he was looking at. At one point he moved closer to the craft. When he reached out to touch it, the fingertips of the gloves he was wearing melted. The metallic craft began to turn counter-clockwise and blasted Stefan with hot gasses which blew him backwards and set both his shirt a cap on fire.

SHOW NOTES Today's Guest, Mike Aoki is the President of Reflective Keynotes Inc., a Toronto-based customer service and sales training company that helps organizations improve both sales, as well as the experience of their customers. Mike does this by working with the people who’s job it is to work directly with customers. In other words, the actual folks we talk to on the phone. Mike is a renowned expert on contact centre sales and customer service, and is regularly in the top 50 most influential customer service experts in North America.  Mike is often in national media such as The Globe and Mail speaking on exactly what we’ll be talking about today. Past clients for his training sessions include Just Energy, SYSCO and the Royal Canadian Mint. This Episode's Conversation Can you both sell, and improve customer experience, at the same time? In all of our shows we talk about what organizations can do to improve their customer experience. One of the common challenges companies face is that if you want to provide a good customer experience on the phone, you’re not allowed to sell. Either you sell, or you provide great customer service. It’s somehow an either / or situation. I was able to catch up with Mike at the start of the summer, and we talked about how he works with companies who need to do both. His clients need to drive sales, as well as make sure their customers love them. The Surprising Value of Networking Across Departments One of the very surprising techniques we talk about in achieving this goal is the value of networking across departments so that you can make sure your department, your team, or…you, have all the best information to keep your customers engaged. What’s cool about that is on this show we often talk about the importance of getting rid of a silo mentality. We’ve all seen it: Each department is basically running on their own agendas and not speaking meaningfully to other departments, And sure that falls to the very senior leadership to create an environment that discourages silos, but also everyone in the company can help with that, simply by walking over to another department and saying hello. Easier said than done, right? Mike spends some time talking about ways to make that happen. For more information on Mike and how he helps his client drive results, you can reach him in the following ways: Website: Reflective Keynotes Mike is also very active on Twitter.  Follow and tweet him at @MikeAoki.
