AI, Gold & Bitcoin Are Light In The End Of The Tunnel - Peter St Onge | Ep. 133

Peter St Onge is an economist and former MBA professor holding positions at the Heritage Foundation, the Mises Institute, and the Montreal Economic Institute. In this conversation, we discuss what the Strait of Hormuz blockade means for different countries, the parallels between today and the 1930s, why AI will raise wages rather than destroy jobs, how central banks function as a permanent bailout mechanism for reckless banking, how to protect yourself during this chaos, and why free speech determines whether the West survives what is coming.
