E102 - BitPod | No One Wants To Hear About Fiat Debt With Jarrett Carpenter Nov 22, 2023

Show notes

The story of money in the 20th century is intrinsically tied to the story of fiat or government mandated debt; a system that devalues the average citizen's currency, silently steals wealth and more often than not props up systems of violence. So, it was almost "on par" to see Fox Business usher Strike CEO, Jack Mallers, off the mic when he got into his backswing about the dangers of the over-burdened fiat debt system.

Also, please excuse my outdoor studio for this episode.
