This week on The Enemies List, Rick is joined by prolific author and film producer Jonathan Taplin. Together, they unpack a dystopian reality orchestrated by tech moguls Peter Thiel, Mark Zuckerberg, Marc Andreessen, and Elon Musk. Taplin's book "The End of Reality" serves as a chilling beacon, illuminating the dark side of the Metaverse, AI's unchecked rise, and the folly of Martian dreams. Taplin reveals a stark vision where technology, fueled by greed and power, threatens the fabric of society.

Jonathan's new book, "The End of Reality: How Four Billionaires are Selling a Fantasy Future of the Metaverse, Mars, and Crypto", is available now.
