Lawrence Lepard | Simply Bitcoin IRL

from Simply Bitcoin · host Simply Bitcoin

In this episode, we sit down in Miami Beach with the legendary Larry Lepard to discuss his new book, The Big Print: What Happened to America and How Sound Money Will Fix It. We dive deep into how inflation is stealing wealth from everyday Americans, why fiat money is the root of the problem, the Federal Reserve’s role in economic manipulation, and why Bitcoin is the only solution for a fair monetary system. Larry breaks down the debt doom loop, the history of monetary policy, and what comes next for the U.S. economy. He shares eye-opening insights about how the financial system has been rigged against the middle class, the consequences of endless money printing, and why Bitcoin is the best tool to restore economic fairness.

Explicit Tales From The Rabbit Hole Mick West Tales from the Rabbit Hole is an interview-style podcast focusing on people whose lives have been affected by the conspiracy theory rabbit hole. Guests will include both former and current believers in a variety of conspiracy theories, as well as debunkers, skeptics, and the investigators of those theories. I’m Mick West, a debunker. I wrote the book Escaping the Rabbit Hole – How to Debunk Conspiracy Theories using Facts, Logic, and Respect. This book came from my experiences running Metabunk – a debunking forum. Over the years I realized simply presenting corrections to people is not enough. We need effective communication, and we can’t do that if we don’t listen to and talk with each other. I’m hoping this podcast will help bridge that gap. Explicit DefiCast DefiCast DefiCast We dive into cryptocurrency news, discussion, and education.
