Thanks for all your work. The segment on Carney was great; the guy is an installed agent...

Trading a CBDC for a PPDC means that your transactions can be censored by that company without the protection of the Constitution, they can really do whatever they want and the government can just say "it wasn't us". This just eases everyone into a more centralized system slowly. It's still a garbage solution and doubles as a way for the government to print more, which is why all the politicians and financial crowd like it. I estimate that physical cash is gone within 10 years.

No need for video. I feel the need for video mostly comes from the want/need to put something on YouTube. Audio is more useful and when you listen and you pick up more details in how things are said.

Good episode, helped clairify a few details for me. I wasn't afraid before, now... I'm still not afraid. Researchers looking for funding are likely to try and put a scare on things. 😮🔥we're all going to die!🔥😮 (vibes)
