- 2 hours 1 minute#173 - Liberman - We’re Training AI to Get Rid Of Us
Two brothers who escaped Russia say we have 2 years before AI replaces us - and we're paying the corporations building it.
Daniil & David Liberman sold their first company to Snapchat. Now they're racing to build a decentralised alternative to OpenAI and Google before the window closes. They explain why centralised AI ends in a two-tier world - a small elite with access, and the rest of us as "moving parts" - and why the next 24 months decide which path we take.
In this episode:
→ Why you can't opt out of AI and stay competitive
→ The recursive loop: AI is now writing AI
→ Why the kill switch won't work
→ What they saw inside Russia in 2008 that's happening now with AI
→ The darkest scenario they almost didn't want to say out loud

8 May 2026, 5:46 pm - 1 hour 39 minutes#172 - Graham Linehan - A Civilisation Built On Lies Cannot Survive
Graham Linehan wrote Father Ted, Black Books and The IT Crowd. Five BAFTAs. Then he said women's spaces should be for women, and the industry that built him decided he was a bigot. He lost his marriage, his career and twenty-five years of friendships.
Once one of the most celebrated comedy writers of his generation, Graham became the first major artistic figure to be comprehensively cancelled for speaking out on sex-based rights - and has never gone quiet to claw his reputation back.
He explains:
• Why the people who built their careers alongside him refused to defend him
• How a movement that didn't exist a decade ago captured medicine, sport, prisons and the BBC without a fight
• Why women's sport, female-only spaces and child safeguarding became unsayable inside his industry almost overnight
• How smartphones, algorithms and the collapse of physical community made a generation defenceless against ideological capture
• Why activism replaced music, fashion and culture for a generation that was supposed to be having fun
• What being arrested - and watching no-one call to ask if he was alright - actually teaches you about the people around you

6 May 2026, 5:10 pm - 1 hour 16 minutes#171 - Michael Saylor - Why You Feel Poorer (And Why AI Will Make It Worse)
The economy you grew up in is ending and most people have no plan. Bitcoin pioneer Michael Saylor reveals why you have 10 years to adapt before AI rewrites everything.
Michael Saylor is the founder of MicroStrategy and one of the most influential voices on money, capital and the future of value. A Wall Street outsider turned Bitcoin's most prominent corporate advocate, he is known for his sweeping frameworks on monetary debasement, technological disruption and how civilisations rise and fall - and what individuals must do to thrive inside them.
He explains:
• Why the global currency system is quietly making you poorer every year
• Why working hard is no longer the path to wealth it once was
• How AI and automation are about to demonetise human labour
• Why you have roughly 10 years to stake your claim in the new economy
• Why owning scarce assets is now the only real form of financial security
• How the coming explosion in prosperity will leave most people behind
• Why Bitcoin represents the highest form of capital ever created
• The single biggest mistake that will define who wins and loses in the next decade

30 April 2026, 5:49 pm - 1 hour 54 minutes#170 - Andrew Wilson - Why Modern Life Feels Like It’s Working Against You
In this episode, I sit down with Andrew Wilson to discuss what so many people are starting to ask but struggle to answer:
Why does modern life feel like it isn’t working anymore?
We discuss rising political division, economic pressure and a growing sense of dissatisfaction - and what might actually be driving it.
Andrew explains that many of today’s problems aren’t just political or economic, but cultural - and that culture itself is shaped by something even more fundamental: shared values, belief systems, and community.

28 April 2026, 4:40 pm - 1 hour 40 minutes#169 - Preston Bryne - Britain Isn't A Free Country Anymore
Preston Byrne is the only American lawyer fighting the UK's attempt to censor US companies under the Online Safety Act. He's representing 4chan, Kiwi Farms, Gab and Sanctioned Suicide - pro bono - because no other firm would take the cases.
In this interview, Preston explains why Britain isn't a free country anymore, what Ofcom actually claims the power to do to American websites and why he says the UK is trying to enforce British censorship law on American soil. We get into the moment that started him down this path - a 16-year-old getting a criminal summons from the City of London Police for holding a sign - and why two decades later he believes the rest of the country is finally catching up to what he saw then.

26 April 2026, 5:34 pm - 1 hour 27 minutes#168 - Hans Niemann: The Corrupt Chess Madia
Hans Niemann on beating Magnus Carlsen, the cheating accusations that nearly ended his career, and the "chess mafia" he says tried to destroy his life.
At 19, Hans Niemann beat the world's greatest chess player. Magnus Carlsen withdrew without explanation. Within weeks, Niemann was facing global cheating accusations, blacklisting from his own federation, and a fight to save his career.
Four years on, he's world No. 12 and still climbing. In this interview, Hans addresses everything: what Magnus actually saw at the board, the $100 prize he won at 12 that became "the greatest crime" of the saga, the 70-page report and what was really in it, the time Magnus was caught taking a move on his own livestream, and the top-10 player banned for cheating whose name was never published.

23 April 2026, 5:42 pm - 1 hour 15 minutes#167 - Andrew Lilico - Britain Is Poorer Than The Poorest US State
Britain is now poorer than the poorest American state and economist Andrew Lilico says a full-blown fiscal crisis is coming within ten years. He explains how Britain broke itself, why the political establishment lost its faith and the £180 billion in spending cuts he believes should be the baseline, not the radical option.
Andrew Lilico is Executive Director of Europe Economics and Chairman of the IEA Shadow Monetary Policy Committee. He is one of Britain's most prominent economists and a regular voice on UK fiscal policy.

21 April 2026, 4:50 pm - 1 hour 12 minutes#166 - Freddie New - How Governments Destroy Money and Empires (The Lessons From Rome)
Freddie New studied the classics and has spent years obsessing over one question: how does a superpower destroy itself? The answer, he argues, is always the same - it starts with the money.
In this conversation we map the fall of Rome directly onto the West today. The Roman denarius lost 97% of its purchasing power over 150 years. The British pound has lost 95% of its in the last century alone. The parallels don't stop there - military overstretch, a dependent population kept loyal by the state, leaders who can't stop the printing even when they know it's killing them. Rome couldn't stop. We can't either.
Freddie has read all 1.5 million words of Edward Gibbon's History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. In this conversation he explains what that teaches us about where we are right now - and whether there is a way out.
In this episode:
• How Rome debased the denarius from 100% silver to 3% over 300 years
• Why currency debasement always starts slowly and why it can never be stopped
• The eerie similarity between Rome's military dependence and modern welfare states
• What Diocletian's price controls tell us about every government's response to inflation
• Why Constantine's hard money reset saved the empire for another generation
• What hard money offers that fiat never can
• Whether the West can course correct or whether collapse is now inevitable

16 April 2026, 5:42 pm - 2 hours 11 minutes#165 - Emmet Connor - The Ideology Slowly Destroying the West
Emmet Connor, author of Red Pandemic, joins me to discuss his claim that Marxist ideas are expanding globally through culture, institutions and politics.
We start with the core question: is there actually a coherent Marxist movement in the modern West or is the term being used too loosely to describe broader social change?
We also explore what Marxism is today, how it may have evolved beyond its original economic focus and whether its historical outcomes are a failure of implementation or something inherent to the ideology itself.

14 April 2026, 5:31 pm - 1 hour 8 minutes#164 - Liz Truss - Why It Doesn't Matter Who You Vote For
Liz Truss, former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, joins me to discuss what really happened during her time in office and why she believes the UK is in long-term economic and political decline.
We talk about the limits of political power, the role of institutions like the Bank of England, and why she argues that meaningful change is harder than voters realise. Liz also reflects on why she was removed from office and whether Britain can reverse its current trajectory.

10 April 2026, 5:30 pm - 1 hour 15 minutes#163 - Scott Horton - How Debt, Inflation and War Are All Connected
Scott Horton is the director of Antiwar.com and one of the most outspoken critics of US foreign policy.
In this episode, Scott explains how war connects directly to the things people feel every day - rising prices, falling purchasing power, growing debt and a system that never seems to improve no matter who is in charge.
We also discuss how governments fund wars, why debt keeps expanding, how inflation quietly shifts the cost onto ordinary people and the incentives that keep the cycle going. Lastly, Scott explains the role of media, the relationship between politics and defence spending, and why these conflicts continue even when public support is weak.
