Brilliant discussion; scary, but brilliant. Keep up the superb work.
I just heard this podcast - outstanding. But how do we get people to listen to this? I am so scared about the future of this country as it seems so few are actually paying attention to what’s really going on. Will it always be true that only those with the most money “win”?
I’ve listened this this discussion a few times and it is really good. Highly recommended.
