The US has flipped its entire foreign policy stack - from globalist to mercantilist, from soft power to real politik, from world policeman to hemisphere landlord.In this episode we decode the four resource locks driving every headline you're confused by: energy, rare earths, manufacturing, and trade routes. And Greenland, Panama, Venezuela, Taiwan? It's all the same play.Louis and Joanna break down why the rules-based order is a legacy system, what the reserve currency curse actually did to the American middle class, and why China holding 70% of rare earths might be the most important geopolitical fact of the decade.Welcome to the multipolar world. The old map is deprecated.

In our very first episode, your hosts Joanna and LV crack open the vault of history to ask a deceptively simple question: what the hell is money? Not the bills in your wallet, not the numbers in your banking app — but money. Real money. The kind that holds its value when the system starts to shake.We’re diving deep — from the primal origins of barter and trade, to gold, silver, and the digital mirage of cryptocurrencies. Along the way, we dissect the difference between currency (cheap IOUs) and sound money — and why knowing that difference could save your financial future.
