  • The Government Can Freeze Everything… Unless You Opt Out | Kyle Chassé & Andy Schectman

    Andy Schectman, President & CEO of Miles Franklin Precious Metals, sits down with Kyle Chassé, Founder of MV Global and crypto OG, for a deep conversation on gold, Bitcoin, CBDCs, tokenized gold, financial surveillance, self-custody, and the future of the monetary system.

    Kyle explains why he believes Bitcoin and gold are reacting to the same underlying problem: fiat debasement, institutional control, and growing distrust in the global financial system. The discussion explores whether Bitcoin has already been absorbed by Wall Street, the risks of CBDCs and stablecoins, quantum computing threats, tokenized gold, BRICS accumulation of gold, and why “the opt-out” may become increasingly important in the years ahead.

    In this episode of Little by Little:- Why Bitcoin and gold investors may ultimately become allies

    - BlackRock, ETFs, and institutional control of Bitcoin

    - CBDCs, stablecoins, and financial surveillance

    - The risks and opportunities of tokenized gold

    - Why self-custody matters

    - BRICS, de-dollarization, and gold accumulation

    - Quantum computing and the future of encryption

    - The possibility of decentralized global gold redemption systems

  • The New Gold Monetary System Is Already in Place (Most People Missed It) | Stephen Leeb

    Andy Schectman, CEO of Miles Franklin Precious Metals and host of Little by Little, sits down with Stephen Leeb, Economist, Money Manager & NYT Bestselling Author, to break down the math behind a potential gold revaluation and why a global monetary reset may already be underway. Is gold massively undervalued? Leeb argues that decades of suppression, combined with unsustainable global debt and a shifting financial order, could force a dramatic repricing of gold – potentially to levels most investors aren’t prepared for. At the same time, a new monetary system may already be forming… outside the U.S.-led framework.

    In this episode of Little by Little:

    - The math behind the $18,000 gold scenario

    - Has gold been suppressed for decades?

    - Why a monetary reset may be inevitable

    - The role of central banks and global debt

    - Is a new gold-backed system already emerging?

    - Why most investors are missing the bigger picture

  • Is the Fed Being Replaced? ‘Stablecoins Are the New System’ | E.B. Tucker & Andy Schectman

    Andy Schectman, Founder & CEO of Miles Franklin Precious Metals, sits down with E.B. Tucker, Editor of The Tucker Letter.

    Is the Federal Reserve being replaced? Are stablecoins quietly becoming “Fed 2.0”? And what does that mean for gold, inflation, and your financial future?

    Tucker explains the structural shift happening inside the financial system – from stablecoins and digital control to inflation, gold, and the mindset needed to navigate what’s coming next.

    Tucker argues that what looks like chaos may actually be a redesign of the system, not a collapse and that most people are already inside it without realizing it.

    In this episode of Little by Little:

    - Are stablecoins becoming the new Federal Reserve (Fed 2.0)?

    - The rise of digital control and what it means for your freedom

    - Why inflation “has to go up” in the current system

    - How gold really works and why the move comes before the headlines

    - The truth about price discovery in gold and silver markets

    - Why most investors get gold wrong at major turning points

    - Mindset, opportunity, and why the next generation may have more upside than ever

  • Gold to $7,000? Why This Correction Changes Nothing | Don Durrett & Andy Schectman

    Andy Schectman, Founder & CEO of Miles Franklin Precious Metals, sits down with Don Durrett, Founder of GoldStockData.com and author of How to Invest in Gold and Silver.

    As gold pulls back sharply, Durrett argues this is not the end of the bull market but the setup for the next major move higher. He breaks down why the global debt system is reaching a breaking point, why central banks are trapped, and why investors should be preparing for a potential monetary reset.

    Durrett warns that the U.S. is entering a “debt doom loop” with no clear exit, and says the next phase could include recession, market dislocation, and even a 30-40% devaluation of the dollar. In that environment, he believes gold could ultimately reach $7,000, with silver and mining stocks offering even greater upside.

    In this episode of Little by Little with Andy Schectman:

    - Why the debt bubble has reached a point of “no way out”

    - Why central banks are trapped between inflation and collapse

    - What’s really driving gold’s long-term move higher

    - Why this pullback is “just noise” in a bigger bull market

    - The case for gold reaching $7,000

    - Silver upside potential and volatility risks

    - Why mining stocks offer asymmetric upside

    - What a potential dollar reset could look like

    - Why investors should be accumulating, not panicking

  • Gold Is Becoming Money Again in America | Jason Cozens & Andy Schectman

    Andy Schectman, Founder & CEO of Miles Franklin, sits down with Jason Cozens, Founder & CEO of Glint, to break down a major shift underway: gold is becoming money again in America.

    As U.S. debt surges past $39 trillion and trust in fiat currency erodes, several states are now moving to reintroduce gold and silver as functional money. 

    Cozens explains how new legislation across states like Florida, Texas, and Utah could allow Americans to save, transact, and even get paid in gold, while Schectman connects the dots to a broader global trend: the breakdown of trust in fiat systems and the return of gold as a neutral monetary asset.

    In this episode of Little by Little with Andy Schectman:

    - The push by U.S. states to reestablish gold as legal tender

    - Why gold may be replacing trust in the dollar system

    - The real story behind stablecoins and CBDCs

    - How Americans could soon spend gold in everyday transactions

    - What this shift means for the future of money

  • America’s ‘6 Trials by Fire’: $40 Trillion Debt, CBDCs & Crisis That Began in 1971 | Kevin Freeman

    Andy Schectman, Founder & CEO of Miles Franklin Precious Metals, sits down with Kevin Freeman – CFA, bestselling author and host of Economic War Room – to break down what Freeman calls America’s “Six Trials by Fire.”

    Freeman argues today’s economic instability didn’t begin recently, but in 1971, when the United States abandoned the gold standard, setting off decades of debt expansion, monetary experimentation, and growing systemic risk.

    From a nearly $40 trillion national debt to the rise of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), Freeman explains how monetary policy has evolved into a national security issue and why sound money may become central to preserving financial freedom.

    The discussion explores constitutional money, transactional gold and silver, global challenges to the U.S. dollar, and the long-term consequences of financialization on wealth inequality and economic stability.

    In this episode of Little by Little:

    - The “Six Trials by Fire” facing America

    - Why 1971 changed the global monetary system

    - $40 trillion debt and risks to the dollar

    - CBDCs and digital financial control

    - Constitutional gold and transactional sound money

    - Wealth inequality and monetary policy consequences

    - Why Freeman believes the crisis is unfolding now

  • The U.S. Debt ‘Black Hole’: We’ve Crossed the Event Horizon | Greg Weldon & Andy Schectman

    Andy Schectman, Founder & CEO of Miles Franklin Precious Metals, sits down with Greg Weldon, CTA and Publisher of the Global Macro Strategy Report, to break down what he calls the U.S. debt “black hole” and why the global financial system may have already crossed a point of no return.

    Weldon explains how decades of monetary policy, rising debt dependence, and geopolitical resource competition are reshaping markets, currencies, and global power structures. From yield curve control and inflation dynamics to gold’s role as a measure of trust, Schectman and Weldon explore why today’s economic pressures may signal a fundamental shift in the financial system.

    As debt accelerates beyond sustainable growth, Weldon argues the consequences could include persistent inflation, declining purchasing power, and a lower standard of living, while gold increasingly reflects a growing loss of confidence in the monetary system.

    In this episode of Little by Little:

    - The U.S. debt “black hole” and financial system tipping points

    - Why markets may have crossed an economic event horizon

    - Inflation, deflation, and the future of purchasing power

    - Yield curve control and Treasury market risks

    - Gold as a signal of declining trust in global finance

  • ‘They’ve Given Up on the Country’: Inside the Financial Coup | Catherine Austin Fitts

    Andy Schectman, Founder & CEO of Miles Franklin Precious Metals, sits down with Catherine Austin Fitts, Publisher of The Solari Report & Former Bush administration official, for a wide-ranging and urgent conversation on what she describes as a financial coup already underway.

    Fitts explains why the global monetary system is no longer functioning as a currency system – but as a control grid, with the end-goal being programmable money, digital surveillance, and centralized power. She lays out how bankers quietly gained control over both fiscal and monetary policy, why she believes political factions in Washington are unified on this agenda, and what it means for individual freedom.

    The discussion also turns to gold and silver, with Fitts arguing that the surge in physical delivery reflects collapsing trust in the financial system’s “plumbing” and growing concern over paper leverage.


    In this episode of Little by Little:

    - A financial coup explained

    - Programmable money and the control grid

    - Why Washington factions are unified

    - Physical gold and silver as a response to systemic risk

  • ‘London Silver & Gold Market Is a Smoking Hole’ – What Happens Next | David Jensen & Andy Schectman

    Andy Schectman, Founder & CEO of Miles Franklin Precious Metals, sits down with mining executive and precious metals analyst David Jensen to break down what may be the most important silver story of our time: a rolling failure inside the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA). Jensen explains why the world’s most important physical silver market briefly seized up in October, how backwardation, lease rates, and unallocated positions point to a system already in distress, and why the recent 50-million-ounce emergency injection of metal may only delay the inevitable. Andy and David map out the structural fragility of the LBMA, the global East vs West battle for physical metal, China’s growing control over silver flows, and what a true silver default would mean for investors, institutions, and global price discovery.

    In this episode of Little by Little:

    - Why the LBMA’s spot market nearly froze despite 790M oz in the vaults

    - The return of backwardation and what it signals

    - How the LBMA is trading ~700M oz/day with almost no real float

    - China’s strategic silver restrictions and refinery dominance

    - Why Jensen believes “the system has already defaulted”

    - The future of global gold and silver price discovery

    - Why everything is now becoming local and dependent on trust


    This interview was recorded on Nov 12, 2025.
