In the first hour, Dr. Eike Hamer joined the show to talk about Germany’s economy suffering from drastic sanctions on Russian energy, Sweden and Finland looking to join NATO in a move that will further destabilize the continent, and Western elites waging war on Russia as a way to distract from a weak economy.

In the third hour, David Tawil joined the conversation to talk about how cryptocurrency sank over $800 billion in just a month, if new regulations are in order to keep ‘stablecoins’ stable in value, and why a Republican administration would be good for cryptocurrency.
