Radio Ranch with Roger Sayles 020626 LIVE, Signatures, Shorting, and the Flash Crash: A Friday at the Radio Ranch

On today’s Friday Radio Ranch, we kicked off with house notes and syndication updates, then dove into big themes our audience has been asking about: attention, media, money, and how to build parallel systems that actually serve people. Paul English recapped his latest show—from Bretton Woods through EO 6102, the Howey test, CFMA, and the 2010 flash crash—plus a spirited debate on Bitcoin SV (signatures, provenance, and why BSV ≠ BTC) and why local commerce tools like Food Finders Hub matter. We touched Bonhoeffer’s “theory of stupidity,” attention spans, and the role of Q&A-driven interviews to reset listener focus. We also ranged across the week’s hot topics: the Epstein document chatter and what the alternative media is covering, naked shorting pressure on strategic metals and efforts to curb it, Glass‑Steagall history, COMEX mechanics vs. physical, and why civic engagement starts local. Listeners asked for trusted sources, so we shared our current outlets and archives. Brent Winters checked in briefly; keep those prayers coming for his quick recovery. If you’re new here, welcome—archives and live call‑in links are below so you can jump into the conversation next time. 'EURO·FOLK·RADIO': https://eurofolkradio.com/ 'Radio Soapbox': https://radiosoapbox.com/ 'Paul English Live': https://paulenglishlive.com/ 'Global Voice Radio (main site)': https://www.globalvoiceradio.net/ 'SGT Report (Rumble channel)': https://rumble.com/c/SGTReport 'SGT Report (website)': https://www.sgtreport.com/ 'Food Finders Hub': https://foodfindershub.org/ 'Food For Thought Radio (FFTRadio)': https://fftradio.com/ 'MrBeast YouTube channel': https://www.youtube.com/@MrBeast 'Bitcoin SV — project site': https://bitcoinsv.com/ 'WhatsOnChain (BSV explorer)': https://whatsonchain.com/ 'JFK: The President and the Press (April 27, 1961)': https://www.jfklibrary.org/archives/other-resources/john-f-kennedy-speeches/american-newspaper-publishers-association-19610427 'War Is a Racket (Smedley D.
