Listen Later

It is day three of our historic broadcasting from the heart of the North Dakota Badlands, and the energy in the lobby of the brand-new 1883 Hotel is absolute electric! In this milestone episode, host Scott Hennen is joined by a star-studded lineup of political figures, tech titans, and Broadway producers to fully unpack the global ripple effects of the monumental $450 million Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library dedication. First, Senator John Hoeven drops by fresh off of greeting the President at the tarmac to reveal intimate details of Donald Trump’s whirlwind arrival—detailing a logic-defying trek featuring Air Force One, a fleet of V-22 Ospreys, a highly choreographed BNSF steam engine ride, and an elite modern Rough Rider horse cavalry escort. Hoeven takes us inside the library's cutting-edge interactive exhibits, detailing how Microsoft's engineering team is actively building out a proprietary large language model that allows real-time conversations with a digital avatar of TR. The narrative shifts to historical theater as the creative director behind a spectacular Broadway production of Teddy and Alice at Dickinson State University stops by to break down the complex layers of our 26th president. Discover how a grueling lifestyle of downing a gallon of coffee a day from a bathtub-sized mug helped a sickly New York youth conquer debilitating physical illness and crippling personal tragedy to transform into the greatest conservationist in modern history.

With new Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh threatening to permanently abolish the traditional interest rate dot plots and launch a rigorous task force to audit the sovereign reserves inside Fort Knox, Fisher outlines why an imminent treasury debt calamity could send global gold and silver prices skyrocketing into a historic, unstoppable rally.
