We start off on October 2, 1980 in Las Vegas, Nevada, and in episode 4 of the Sovereign Man podcast we cover quite some historic ground, from the American-Spanish War of 1898 to the present day situation in Crimea-- which brings us to an inevitable conclusion about the current power struggle in the world.

In this episode

* What Muhammad Ali has in common with the geopolitics of today

* The Sovereign Man view on Crimea, and why it's not about how many tanks and bombs you have

* The historical turning point we're at today

* What we can learn from Spain in 1898

* About Sovereign Academy 2014 (there's still time to apply)

For our second Sovereign Man podcast, I'm pleased to bring along a special guest-- my friend Peter Schiff, who I've just spent the last week with darting around the Caribbean. In today's podcast, Peter and I focus on gold: why you should own it, and what's happening in the marketplace right now. If you know anything about Peter, you can probably already tell that this edition will be highly entertaining.

Peter and I were both speakers at an investment conference that I'll tell you about. And while I generally turn down all the speaking invitations I receive, this event was really great, and I'm glad I went.

There's a lot going on in the world and sometimes it's just too hard to capture everything in a 500 word missive.

In our first podcast episode, we cover a range of topics from the Sovereign Man worldview and the deteriorating personal freedom in America to telling examples from history, and give some very timely advice that rational thinking people ought to be considering right now.

I encourage you to download it, put it on your mobile device and listen to it at the gym, in the car, and share it with your friends, and also feel free to let us know what you think.

You'll find it on iTunes as well in the very near future, along with more exciting episodes.
