We finally started on our new radio station in West Palm Beach Florida, 1230 WBZT. Things are really looking up. And the new Leaner Competitive Twinkie is making its debut on July 15. Unfortunately it’s going to be frozen when it leaves the factory/bakery. Contrary to popular belief, while diamonds are forever-Twinkies are not. They have a limited shelf life so freezing them is a necessity. Hopefully, that famous Twinkie flavor which made them an American icon will not be affected.

Bob Hoye has studied every post credit bubble bust since the 1600’s. So far this one has followed a very predictable cycle. Initially gold and silver rose on over done inflationary fears. Then they fell on economic recovery hopes. Now they’re poised to recover since the economy is heading back into recessionary territory. History doesn’t repeat, but it certainly rhymes as it is doing now.

Jason Hartman is a real estate master. He doesn’t just sell services to investors, he actually invests his own funds into the same types of properties that he encourages you to buy. He spent thousands of hours developing a course that he sold to countless potential investors for $297. As a personal favor to yours truly, he’s giving it away to a limited number of FSN listeners. I’m taking the course now and I think you should too. For two reasons, it pays to have a balanced portfolio and one day you’ll want to convert part of your precious metals hoard into real assets and real estate will be a great place to start.

Mickey Fulp joined us for a review of last month’s metals market carnage. It wasn’t pretty to say the least. There was blood in the streets. Interestingly, most markets were decidedly down, with the exception of crude oil. Natural gas, the champion of the last two quarters was decidedly down on seasonal factors. Uranium seems to have bottomed. The dollar did nothing as did the Euro. The stock markets which had been ablaze took a breather and we’re adding interest rates for next month’s report.

We told you so! Obamacare is slowly imploding. This train wreck is coming off the rails and nobody can fix it. As things progress expect to see more and more of these efforts to delay, hinder and defraud the public. If the definition of government is the absence of truth, then this administration has set a new record. Stay tuned for the next development. And while we’re on the subject of deceit, the IRS lady Lois Lerner is back and she’ll still be attempting to plead the Fifth. Better luck this time Lois. Perhaps it’s time to take a much more serious look at getting rid of this corrupt agency at long last.

Mike Burns returned and he’s buying high quality munis on a very selective basis. Be sure to spread out your purchases over time. Interest rates will probably be heading upward for a period of years. Therefore, be sure to buy over a period of time and catch the wave up. That way you won’t face devastating principal losses. Mike likes Texas, North Dakota and many university and revenue bond situations. He also likes the triple tax free features that these bonds have. But be careful and don’t be lured in by bond insurance. It can be icing on the cake, but never allow it to be your reason for buying a particular issue.

We caught up with Ranting Andy Hoffman. What are the odds of gold going down at 2:15 am every morning for the past 35 days? Just 1 over 2 to the 37th power or a number that they never taught you in high school, college or grad school. This is just one small example of how every market is being manipulated to communicate the party’s message of hope and change. Markets no longer function in the manner they were designed, which was to inform participants of the latest price discovery data. Of course anyone who’s been listening to FSN for any length of time is fully aware of this fact.

Ross Hansen owns North America’s largest privately held mint. Therefore he’s acutely aware of precious metals prices. When markets go through volatile periods like the past few months, he’s seldom caught off guard. According to Ross. the markets have been acting normally. Any market that goes up for 12 years straight is going to eventually have a down year. Ross says there’s rooms full of 20 plus year old kids in New York that he sells metal to, who don’t have a clue what going on. Also, there’s no silver shortage and never has been. Eventually, investment demand is going to push the shiny metal’s prices to the moon.

It finally happened! In Dallas Texas over the weekend on June 29 something incredible took place. 14 speakers spoke passionately about liberty. The sum was truly greater than the parts. Nearly 100 people attended, and the conclusion was almost unanimous: the show exceeded everyone’s expectations. To reclaim liberty, we must start by looking within our own hearts and we must each become an individual champion. Only then will we be in a position to extol its virtues to others. And I am starting right now with my own personal pledge to do everything in my power to stay free and live the most liberated existence possible.

Mark Skousen is the founder of Freedom Fest. This marks its seventh year. While it was supposed to be held at Caesars Palace, it’s going to be held directly across the street at Planet Hollywood, with a birdseye view. There’s so many parallels between the US and Rome. Both empires debased their currencies and their morality. Their values sunk to appallingly low levels. In fact the United States morals are still sinking. Is a revival possible. We can only hope. Perhaps you’ll find some answers at this year’s Freedom Fest.

Heidi Boghosian is the executive director of the famed National Lawyer’s Guild. She believes that time is running out on holding the government accountable for protecting your constitutional rights, particularly when it comes to your privacy. The recent NSA disclosures, AP reporter subpoenas and Espionage Act reporter allegations should have every media outlet and American up in arms. Instead, Americans seem complacent and resigned to an ever growing government that knows no limits.

Ranting Andy Hoffman caught a home run ball this weekend in San Diego. Unfortunately the world’s central bankers have long ceased hitting any monetary home runs and the world’s much poorer for it. China’s ill fated decision to tie the Yuan to the Dollar will prove the equivalent of hitching one’s lifeboat to the Titanic, with similar results. The bond market continues to swoon and we can only wonder how high interest rates will go. This is truly not your father’s Great Depression.

Darryl Schoon joined us today for an in depth discussion of the rapidly deteriorating world economic situation. It doesn’t matter whether you prefer capitalism or communism or socialism, they’re all failing. But that’s actually the good news. The result we be the liberation of humanity. The system as it stands today, has enslaved us all. Much of what passes for policy is really geared towards furthering the control of the elites. But that control has reached its limits and now we’re heading towards a new system that will allow humanity to reach its true potential. However, the transition is going to be extremely challenging and there will be much sacrifice along the way.

J. Max Taylor wrote this book is about the unseen Shadow War that occurred between 1968 and 1976. He wrote it to honor those who served and didn’t come back. They may have been ignored or denied by the “Powers That Be”, but they will live in his heart and nightmares. The profits from the sale of this book will go to help homeless veterans. From Viet Nam to Cambodia to Laos and North Viet Nam the action will show you why so many veterans from the Viet Nam War have PTSD. This was only one of the 83 missions ran by a Special Intelligence Operative code named the Iceman.

Charles Hugh Smith and I discussed the increasing knowledge gap in America. If you aren’t in a position to make connections and network with people who can help you get ahead, then you must increase you skill set. In previous eras you could only acquire those skills in college. Now, however, you can find them on the internet in numerous places. In fact, a college degree could be completely worthless, whereas an online course could be your ticket to great success.

The best laid plans of mice and FSN often lead astray. We survived major moving blunders and computer failures but the show must go on. The first Israeli-Russian Mafia moving company didn’t show. We opted for uHaul and a couple of illegal aliens who got lost and showed up 1.5 hours late. But they got the job done. Then our long trusted Mac computer died and we found ourselves waiting on line at the South Beach Apple Store at 9pm Sunday. Our backup failed to restore. But we still talked about the wefare state and more.

John Rubino bought the DollarCollapse url back in 2004. He’s been waiting for it to happen ever since. The odds are he won’t have to wait much longer. The pace of the collapse is clearly accelerating. Gold and silver prices collapsed today along with stocks and bonds. Where is it going to end? Will every fiat currency across the globe collapse? John’s guess is yes.

We talked to Andy Hoffman today. It looks like it’s 2008 all over again. The only question is what institution or country is going to blow up? There’s so many possibilities that it’s impossible to predict. But the situation is quite grave. Greece is getting worse by the moment. Japan is rapidly sinking. Overnight rates in China purportedly hit 35 percent. And of course in the US the 10 year hit 2.43%. It’s getting more interesting by the moment, so buckle your seat belt.

After a brief hiatus, we caught up today with Diana Zoppa. We proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that drivers in the developing world have more fatalities per mile driven than those in the developed world. It’s not an ethnic issue. It’s one of experience, developed world drivers have been at it longer, that’s all. But while we’re on the topic of driving, take a defensive driving course and save some money on your insurance costs today.

Gold’s down $60 and silver is under $20! What’s going on in the world? Charles Nenner had this nailed several months ago. In fact, he was advising people to get out of gold when it hit $1900 an ounce. Not many of us were smart enough to listen. However, the bull market remains in force and according to Charles will resume its upward trajectory in July.
