Preston Pysh, General Partner at Ego Death Capital and Lawrence Lepard, author of The Big Print, return to the show for an in-depth discussion about the macroeconomic turning point now unfolding. They break down the Fed's latest moves, the illusion of tightening, and why quantitative easing (QE) is inevitable — whether it's called that or not. The conversation spans the end of the petrodollar era, the rise of AI and automation, wealth inequality, populism, and the future of Bitcoin in a world of gold-buying central banks.

We discuss:

• Why liquidity drives every market cycle
• How QE will return under a new name
• Why gold leads but Bitcoin will win
• How AI & automation reshape labor, wages, and inflation -- and leads to more Mamdanis
• Why "crony capitalism," not capitalism, broke the system
• How quantum computing could force Bitcoin's next major upgrade
