Our good friend Bix Weir joined us today for an intriguing interview. He’s of the opinion that the firing of FBI Director James Comey is a watershed event in the fight between the good guys and the bad guys. We’ll look back on this event and see it as a major turning point in this endless battle. The dam has broken and everything will eventually be disclosed. We also talked about the disclosure concerning the late Seth Rich (DNC Data Expert) concerning his connection to Wikileaks and the deliberate coverup of his killing. This is big news! Heads will roll!

Don Mazzella asks as the verbal battle between North Korea and the US continues to heat up, should major cities on the west coast be worried about a missile strike? In test blasts, military parades and propaganda videos that show San Francisco and Washington DC in ruins, North Korea has broadcast its intention to be a world nuclear power. Less clear, experts say, is how close the secretive nation is to realizing its ambitions to threaten the mainland of the United States. After five nuclear tests in a decade, North Korea has already shown that it poses a nuclear threat to cause mass destruction. Should the U.S. continue to be concerned?Will Election of S. Korea Leftist Derail Trump’s N. Korea Policy?

Our good friend Prof. Alain Sanders joined us today for an often contentious interview. While there are plenty of allegations to go around concerning the Trump Administration, some no doubt justified, we need a complete investigation into the Obama Administration’s alleged monitoring of the Trump Campaign, as well as a close look at the Clinton Campaign and Clinton Foundation. Let’s get it all into the open and let the chips fall where they may. Abuse of the public’s trust has been running rampant for many decades. Trump should disclose his tax returns and everything else from everyone should be on the table. If no one has done anything wrong, what’s to worry about?

David Morgan‘s weekly perspective for May 14th, 2017. Japan’s government debt reaches record high. 10 trillion is one of the most indebted countries in the world. They’ve been rolling up the debt for decades. Moody’s has downgraded Canada’s Big 6 banks. Another sign that the debt problem is global and systemic. David Stockman says that the market is on big bubble waiting to pop. Stock market since March has shown great gains from the go-go stocks but the broader market isn’t doing so well. Look for a market fall in the fall. China is on track to totally phase out paper money, ironic the first country to introduce paper money will be the first to phase it out. And bitcoin hits another record, $1800. Interesting to say the least. Metals are lackluster. HUI has had a few strong days. Texas is trying to pass the Texas Depository to hold the people’s gold.

Gordon T. Long says there’s a bull market in student loan debt. While it might be hard to borrow to purchase a home or start a business, it’s never been easier to mortgage your future in pursuit of a worthless college degree. It’s really simple, fill out some forms and receive 10’s of thousands in debt that cannot be discharged in bankruptcy Students don’t understand the implications of what they’re doing. However, the infrastructure of predatory companies catering to this market understand exactly what’s taking place and they’re out to capture the largest possible profit from their market’s ignorance. Can you spell R-I-C-O?

David Morgan returns… Global silver mine production in 2016 recorded its first decline since 2002, largely the result of lower by-product output from the lead/zinc and gold sectors. Coupled with less silver scrap supply to the market, which posted its lowest level since 1996, as well as a contraction in producer hedging, total silver supply decreased by 32.6 million ounces (Moz) in 2016. Moreover, new highs were recorded for silver’s use in the photovoltaic and ethylene oxide sectors, both growing and significant industrial applications for silver. These findings, and other key components of the silver market, are discussed in World Silver Survey 2017, released today by the Silver Institute and produced on its behalf by the GFMS Team at Thomson Reuters (GFMS).

No other guest in FSN history generated as much email and interest as Mike Gazzola. From real estate to opening an Amazon Store, he has helped numerous members of the FSN community realize their financial dreams, including yours truly. So when the opportunity arose to start doing the show again, we jumped at it. To date, his stores have done over $2 million in sales. He has a number of employees working for him in China. Life is good.

He discussed using influencers to promote products, which we’re doing right now for a kitchen product just launched on Amazon. Also, we discussed the importance of packaging; just like clothes can make the man, so too can packaging make the product. In the past 18 months, Mike has truly become a merchandising dynamo.

I was greeted yesterday morning by an email from a person named Gerry. He appears to be an anti-fan. My first missive from him came November 7, 2012, right after Obama’s re-election. His exact words were, “Take that, you dumbass AGW denier, right wing hebe nutjob.” He’s somewhat of an anti-semite, but his words mean nothing to me. We look at the Comey firing and what it really means. Who’s next? Connecticut is going broke and its state capitol Hartford is preparing to file for bankruptcy. Sometimes you just can’t tax enough. Comrade deBlasio is trying to close the City’s notorious penal colony Rikers Island. Good luck on that one. Trump’s Agenda will get passed through in some form.

Danielle Park joined the show yesterday. We talked about the emerging real estate bust in Canada. Home Capital Group, a large Canadian RE lender is on the skids. This is emblematic of what’s happening or will happen elsewhere in the world. The US’s markets are clearly starting to peak, where will the next bubble pop? We also discussed cooking at home. Nothing is more vital to the family than spending dinner time together. It has been shown that children in families that eat dinners with their parents are much more likely to do well in school and stay out of trouble. And the expense of constantly dining out is an unhealthy trend, both economically and nutritionally. So think about that the next time you’re trying to figure out where to eat dinner. Your kitchen is always the closest place.

It takes different forms but it’s often present and holding you back. A lot of good advice here.

Lew Weiss has spent his entire life in the manufacturing sector. He’s happy that President Trump has devoted much attention to the importance of manufacturing to the US Economy. He sees the sector rebounding, but not necessarily because of Trump. Yes Trump’s proposed tax policy and regulatory relief is a major plus, however he hasn’t gotten it through congress yet and may never. Rather, it’s the US’s supply of cheaper energy, access to water and proximity to major markets. He’s seen a pick-up over the last year that’s quite encourage. Lew encourages younger people to take a serious look at a career in this sector. Jobs are plentiful and the pay is way above average. Imagine if there’s a positive move on the policy front to further help things along.

Ned Schmidt returns… With the VIX making new lows daily, fear in the stock market is reaching all time lows. The last time this happened was in 2006 and we all know what happened after that. The market went up for a number of months after the VIX hit its low but then crashed and lost 50 percent of its value. Ned thinks this is a Black Swan event in the making. People are getting way over the top in their optimism about the market. The good news is gold and silver will soar once the market goes through its crash. Don’t worry about the daily moves in gold and silver. Sanity will soon be restored.

However, Jordan believes that 2018 is going to be a great year. We also discuss inflation in commodities versus inflation in service prices. Have we really turned the corner?

It’s no secret that finding the mother lode keeps getting harder and harder to do. A new generation of miners is entering the industry. They are younger, creative and don’t hesitate to utilize the best new technologies that are revolutionizing the industry. In addition, the majors have effectively abandoned exploration and have subcontracted it out to the juniors. Large mining companies are very slow to move and are generally unable to take advantage of new opportunities. Thus the junior miners exist to locate and uncover new mines that will eventually be taken over by the majors. That’s why a conference like the Metals Investor Forum has taken on so much more importance in recent years.

David Morgan notes that the Canadian housing bubble has popped. Its banking system has crashed. Not like when the US housing bubble popped. Canada is only 1/10 the size of the US’s economy. Puerto Rico has filed for bankruptcy. Doctor Copper is showing weakness. The only base metal with upside potential is Zinc. Singapore is investing in artificial intelligence. Gold-backed cryto currencies. Could definitely be part of a trend. Gold prices under pressure from better than expected US economic data. Gold could be going later. Silver has also been under pressure. Chinese demand for gold bars and coins has surged by 30 percent. Mis-management of natural resources is bringing the West down.

We spoke with Max Porterfield at the Metals Investing Forum in Vancouver, BC. Much has been happening since we last spoke. Callinex is unique among the junior mining sector. It has been around since 1927 – ninety years. The company has been recapitalized and is now well situated to take advantage of a booming zinc sector. There’s just 29 days of above ground supply, which means that supply issues could come into play. Since it’s mostly a by-product of other mines, sufficient attention has been paid to expanding output. The price has recently risen to $1.16 per pound and could be going much higher, perhaps as high as $2.00 per pound. Which makes Callinex’s portfolio of proven projects that much more valuable. Combined with a seasoned battle-tested management group, it looks like Callinex has found its way.

David Morgan sits down with Maurice Jackson. It is critical to understand the difference between money and currency. Over time systems get corrupted and we wind up with a fiat based currency system. A Federal Reserve Note is not a dollar as defined by the Constitution and the Coinage Act of 1792. Real money has a value in and of itself. All fiat monetary systems always fail. The 1913 dollar is worth 3 cents. The Federal Reserve has had a history of failure. How much further do we have to fail?

As a podcaster you need to become an expert in analytics. What are analytics? Simply stated, they’re statistics. How many downloads are you getting? How many of them are duplicate downloads? Where does you audience come from? What countries? What percentage of your audience is male/female? All of these numbers are interesting, but they’re very important. Before I started making money off the show, analytics was all I had. Also, make sure that you’ve enabled your site for Google Analytics where you can very easily track visitors.

Most history books and biographies haven’t told Teddy’s full story… That our bombastic twenty-sixth president was created from the ways of trappers and thieves in the Wild West. In a new book Forging a President: How the Wild West Created Teddy Roosevelt by William Hazelgrove sets the record straight. Using Roosevelt’s own writings and reflections, Forging a President shows how heartbreak – and life in the Badlands – formed the spirit of T.R. It’s amazing how much you don’t know about someone you think you know a lot about.

Robert Bakke, says his hope for Trump is fading rapidly, and for a pointed reason. “The Johnson Amendment marked the unraveling of America,” says Bakke, “Unless Trump follows through on his pledge to destroy it, Trump will fail.” Bakke, who says he avoids organized religion at all costs, is referring to legislation that was introduced back in 1954 when Texas Senator, Lyndon Johnson, was fighting to retain his senate seat. While being challenged by Texan, Dudley Dougherty (who was supported by a non-profit organization) Johnson introduced an amendment to the federal tax code, banning charitable organizations from supporting political candidates. The amendment became law and overflowed to prohibit churches and pastors from supporting political candidates. “Just imagine what would happen if women were banned from politics,” says Bakke. Bakke says America’s success was a direct result of keeping Biblical principles at the forefront. “This isn’t about religion,” says Bakke, “It’s about everyone working together, just as a football team needs a playbook to keep everyone on the same page. You don’t have to like the play, but check the results. The Bible was America’s playbook, but the Johnson Amendment took it away.” Bakke says Trump doesn’t stand a chance unless the principals that built America are reinfused into our government. “Check the divorce rate, check the economy, check the debt clock,” says Bakke, “The Bible says a nation shall never borrow money, but now we’re 20-trillion in debt. That better scare you.”

David Morgan gives credit to Ted Butler’s continual analysis of the Commitment of Traders report, which David highlight’s often in his newsletter. The COT report reveals the large paper short and long positions in silver. Currently it appears to be indicating a small downtrend in the silver market. He discusses how silver markets move and how they can be pushed to the downside once investors run low on cash, as banks will short the market at opportune moments. Over the last year the trading has changed dramatically, due to the advent of the Shanghai Gold Exchange, the strength of the long’s appears to be improving, perhaps almost as good as the banking system’s shorts. The open interest continues to grow and the longs are not as scared, they are better capitalized and are much smarter than they used to be. He is looking at the physical market where most dealers have very little silver, at some point the price must move to reflect the true value. David says institutions have left the market and additional buyers of the actual commodity are needed. Any investor who bought under twenty is in a good position as that is near the mining costs. David feels silver is the most honest money, for the average person, historically it’s been money far more often and longer than gold. The leverage you get in good silver equities is phenomenal. First Majestic for example went from $4 to $26 last year. There are many good silver companies with conservative stocks on good exchanges.

How to make your show go viral. First, you need to determine your show’s format. In podcasting there are no courses to really show you how to create a successful show format. Now, it’s starting to catch on and there are podcasting courses in school. There are many formats, including: interview, monologue, commentary, hybrid and many more. Of course as previously stated, you need to pick the right name. Trademark your name as soon as you can. My show’s name wasn’t be best. I looked for great guests. Interviewing techniques will help you make your guest look good. Find guests who have broad followings and may have their own podcast. Everyone running a blog or website is always looking for content for their site, especially high quality interviews of themselves. Make them look good, but don’t be a pushover. Don’t interrupt, be a good listener, treat them with respect and deference. Send them a link of the finished interview, send them a tweet to retweet. Use Facebook. Guest posts on other’s sites and getting your post up on popular sites are very effective. Post to 3rd party websites that aggregate content are another very effective means of promoting your show. Some aggregators have huge followings, so seek them out and take great advantage where possible.
