France braces for violence in new wave of pension protests
"The head of France's largest trade union is calling for mediation to discuss the government's pension reform as France prepares for another day of nationwide protests against the retirement age rising from 62 to 64. Speaking on France into radio, Laurent Berger, the head of the CFDT union, says president Emmanuel Macron should put the retirement reform on hold, while he says we sit around the table in order to see where there might or might not be a social compromise. Burger adds is the political and social choice that has to be put in place. It must be clearly announced that this reform will not be implemented and that we're focusing on a path of discussion Macron has made the reforms the priority of his second term arguing there needed to keep the pension system from diving into deficit as France faces lower birth rates and longer life expectancy.

Israel tensions ease as Netanyahu pauses judicial overhaul
"Israel's political factions opposed to embattled prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu had begun setting up negotiating teams after he paused a controversial overhaul plan on a pensions legislation. Netanyahu has acknowledged the division's roiling the nation, and has announced a month long delay for the legislation. He says he wants to avoid Civil War and would seek a compromise. He spoke after tens of thousands of people demonstrated outside the parliament building in Jerusalem, but compromise appears elusive as the standoff remains over the fundamental issue of what kind of country Israel should be and positions only appear to have hardened. Three months of demonstrations have intensified this week and Israel's main trade union declared a general strike, leading to chaos that shut down much of the country. I'm Charles De Ledesma

Biden's Canada agenda stacked: NORAD, migration deals likely
"President Biden is in Canada's capital for talks with prime minister Justin Trudeau on a bunch of big global issues. I'm Ben Thomas with a look. Several of the world's most difficult challenges are on the agenda, the war in Ukraine, climate change, trade, mass migration, and an increasingly assertive China. But two important areas of agreement already appear in hand. U.S. and Canadian officials say Ottawa will escalate its timeline for military upgrades to the North American aerospace defense command. Norad, and an update to rules for migrants seeking asylum, the deal eliminates a loophole under existing rules that's resulted in thousands of migrants annually crossing into Canada at a non official checkpoint, enabling them to stay in the country. As part of the agreement, Canada is expected to announce that 15,000 migrants from the western hemisphere will be given slots to apply to enter. I'm Ben Thomas

Sen. Marsha Blackburn: 'Joe Biden Inc. Is Compromised' By China
"Happy to have back on the program with us today the senator from Tennessee, senator Marsha Blackburn senator welcome. I'm delighted to join you. Thank you so much for having me back. Well, it's always good to talk to you and we always learn a lot. Right now, the U.S. does not quite have the capability to handle all the fentanyl that's coming across our border by way of China. In fact, April Haynes was just saying and we just played earlier a clip of her saying that we don't have the capacity. She's kind of surprised that, you know, there aren't enough agents, there aren't enough analysts to deal with this if we don't have enough people dealing with the fentanyl crisis coming from China. What's the reality and upshot of that? And the upshot should be that Joe Biden picks up the phone and calls Xi Jinping and says, hey buddy, you know that $1 trillion trade deficit we had with you last year. That's going to stop. If you don't cut it out when it comes to this fentanyl that you are manufacturing and you've buddied up with the cartels, we know what you're doing. You're sending it across our border and it is adversely impacting. So many of our communities. And by the way, we're going to run the cartels out of this country. But Joe Biden won't do that. Because it appears the more we learn that Joe Biden, his family and Biden incorporated, are compromised on some front. So the Chinese Communist Party does not fear him.

Army of lobbyists helped water down banking regulations
"Recent bank collapses that prompted a federal rescue are a reminder of the power still held by Washington lobbyists. It seemed like a good idea at the time, in 2018 Republicans working with president Trump to slash bank regulations joined forces with red state Democrats facing grim reelection prospects. The group passed a bill that rolled back portions of the 2010 Dodd Frank law. The bill was marketed as a form of relief for overburdened community banks, but it also lifted the threshold for strict oversight and mandatory stress testing of large mid sized banks, it is now being blamed for contributing to the collapse of Silicon Valley bank and signature bank whose executives lobbied for the Bill, the effort drew an army of more than a thousand lobbyists, companies and trade groups specifically mentioning the legislation spent more than $400 million in 2017 and 2018, according to an Associated Press analysis, Americans for financial reform, a watchdog group says we can draw a direct line between the deregulation driven by the bank lobby, and the chaos of the last few weeks.

Bitcoin Briefly Tops $28,000 for the First Time in 9 Months
"Wendy, can you start us off with some Bitcoin talk? Yes, we actually closed above $25,200 support and flipped it into resistance. And I'm excited. And the current crypto cap, including Bitcoin, is currently at about $1.13 trillion. So yay. And of course, open interest in Bitcoin futures hits yearly high of $12 billion, which makes sense because we have some positive price action. So the dollar value locked in the number of open Bitcoin future contracts is on the rise. Coin glass data shows a nominal value of open interest has reached a yearly high of 12 billion. And that's a 7% gain this month, which again makes sense. Positive price action. Increase in open interest means new money is flowing into the market, but doesn't reveal whether traders are positioning for gains or losses. For that, you can actually check there's a liquidation website you can check, forget what the name of it is offhand, but it'll show you who is getting wrecked. But anyway, for Bitcoin, new money seems to be getting in on gains considering the funding rate or the cost of holding bullish long, very short positions is flipped into green after spending most of the early parts of the Asia trading day in the red. And positive funding rates usually indicate a bullish trend as long as positions compensate short positions. I know that is a mouthful, but I'm excited about Bitcoin prices. Everybody else excited is Bitcoin going to a $1 million. What's going on? Will I see you smiling here? I just love the trade action here this morning. And Bitcoin might go to a $1 million one day. We'll talk about that later. There are some interesting notes for this morning, so Bitcoin is at its highest level in the last 9 months. The highest trading volume since FTX collapsed and the highest D.C. eth ratio since July of 2022.

Eric McDonald on Trading Crypto Automatically With CoinLion
"From coding in your basement all the way to a $1 billion acquisition, a true unicorn. You've seen it all. And as you started to look into this web three space, you can take I'm sure you're taking a lot of your experiences that you just had over the last 20 years and kind of seen the correlations over into web three. So what caught your eye about with you? Why did you pick that space? You just sold a unicorn. You can go right into the sunset. Why start something new? Yeah, no, a great question. And part of it is, I just kind of tiptoed into this. So coin Lion already existed. I didn't start it. And the group of founders invited me into sit on their board and start to guide them. And so I started a tiptoe into the crypto space and started to realize how impressive the underlying blockchain technology is. And so then when you understand how the blockchain works and how you can move funds from point a to point B ridiculously fast, it was awesome. And then I looked at how cumbersome a lot of the UIs were. Like if you wanted to just go buy some crypto, and he was ridiculously hard. And so honestly, that's what started to plant that seed in my head of it feels like there's some opportunity here. And to build something that's super simple. And so I spent probably 6 to 9 months really working with a team trying to hone in what their vision was in the original vision was, hey, we want to be an exchange, like any other exchange, except we were years behind some of these other exchanges. So what I did is I kind of helped narrow in this vision to like, hey, let's find a niche within this space. Don't feel like we have to own all of crypto. And these are a few of the lessons learned for myself when I was in the healthcare tech space. I built a unicorn, and it was based on one really small niche within healthcare. We didn't have to own all of healthcare. We owned just the urgent care space, and we did it really well. And so we spent a bunch of time talking about, okay, well, what niche can we get into and ended up landing on this idea of auto trading? How do you use bots? To do auto training, which again, bots aren't necessarily not new. We didn't invent that idea. But there aren't a lot of exchanges that have the auto trading built into it where you don't have to have multiple accounts.

John Solomon: Bureaucracies Only Think of Their Own Existence
"Everything that you found, John, the obvious question is, why the hell? Now some have said that this was a way for U.S. government bureaucrats to do an end run around restrictions on research here in America, and they were just playing fast and loose by doing an end run. Do you have any theory or any evidence of why would they be doing this for years, John? Chad wolf, who I talked to yesterday former Homeland Security secretary. I think I had a very astute analysis, which is what happens is bureaucracy start to only think about their existence. Their success, their growth of their budget, the growth of their fame, and they don't think about national security anymore. And so NIH in its effort to claim glory on whatever projects they were working on, were willing to trade national security to advance the interests of their bureaucracy. That's why accountability to the political leadership and government is so important why our founding fathers wanted a smaller bureaucracy. Bureaucrats run wild as the explanation I've heard from a lot of people once I remember people doing their own things not considering the big picture of our own future security.

Wolf Lightning Accelerator CEO Kelly Brewster Shares His Story
"Kelly, welcome to the breakdown sir. How are you doing? Awesome. How are you? Good. You got that amazing background. This is designed for zoom videos. I'm sure. It's real. It's not. If I move quickly, you can see it's not pixelated. It's a real background. Awesome. I'm super excited to have you here. Appreciate you taking some time. I know that you guys are about to start this first class of wolf, but just quickly, before we dive in today, let's start with your background. How you got into Bitcoin and what you're doing now, what the inspiration for wolf was. Yeah, absolutely. And also thank you for having me. I'm a big fan of the show, and I listen frequently, so I'm excited to be here. My personal experience with Bitcoin goes back to about 2013. The time I was working at Goldman Sachs, I was working on one of the trading desks, and initially I heard about Bitcoin through coinbase. It wasn't first hearing about Bitcoin, and then later the exchanges was the other way around. But I heard about this company that was working on this amazing new exchange for these digital assets that I started learning at Bitcoin, learned a little bit about some of the other assets as well. And I thought it was fascinating. And I dabbled a little bit, but I had neither the Fiat savings nor the fortitude to get involved in a bigger way. But a little bit, and I started paying attention to it. And then fast forward a couple of years in 2016, I was working at stone ridge, which is the company that owns nigg and that owns wolf, which we'll talk more about today. And stone ridge was working on the technology and the business that ultimately became nij. And it was really during that time that I went much deeper down the rabbit hole, became much more focused on Bitcoin and became much more personally interested in Bitcoin over really everything else that was happening in crypto at the time. And of course, you know, now through a couple of cycles every time we've seen some of that, I personally just become even more sure that Bitcoin is the thing that is going to stick around and it's going to have some staying power.

11 Big Banks Create $30 Billion Rescue Package for First Republic
"11 big banks, including JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and more announced last night that they would take these somewhat theatrical step of depositing $30 billion worth of uninsured deposits into the troubled first republic bank. But even that move, along with the introduction of the fed's latest bailout window, it might still not be enough to quiet concerns about just how stable and safe the U.S. banking system really is, just this morning as we go to air, even with yesterday's rescue still in the headlines, we're seeing first republic stock trading down nearly 25%. Zach, we've had a backstop, a lending facility that lets banks basically exchange their get their cash back for bad investments made and essentially the best terms. And now the big banks are throwing cash at the problem also. What do you think it will take for the regulators to restore confidence in the banking system or is that something that we're not even really expecting at this point? Well, you know at first republic bank doesn't have the taint of crypto attached to it. That's the thing that stands out to me as it relates to its ability to survive while we see signature be wound down. Obviously this crisis is one of confidence. If you look at people who are researching this issue, pretty much all midsize banks are having this issue, right? They bought bonds that are now worth far less than what they were marked as on their books, right? So clearly, I think people are worried that this could spread to other banks across the country, not just those in California who service, tech firms, but again, those who have customers who are looking to find yields and who are realizing that in this interest rate environment, they can go elsewhere to get yield and they can take that money out of a bank quickly in the palm of their hand and deposit it in a money market account, but they can deposit it with treasuries at their own will, right? So I think clearly what we're seeing is a response to sort of this systemic reality in which we now find ourselves in where money is moving as fast as it ever has. Faster than ever indeed. And all of a sudden, billions and billions of dollars are being drawn out of these banks in hours time. It's quite remarkable and I think that's why we're seeing these remarkable steps.

Executives at First Republic Sold Shares of Stock Prior to Crisis
"I want to get to the disturbing things that Janet Yellen said because it really calls into question whether or not they are in fact helping the system or trying to save the system. But first, according to a report in The Wall Street Journal, there may have been more corruption than we ever thought at some of these banks, including first republic, because we have learned and I do not believe this was some kind of auto sale, like what we saw over at SVB. We have learned that some of the top executives there sold their shares around March 6th, this would have been just days ahead of the crisis, and they pocketed millions of dollars in these transactions. Think about that. I mean, it kind of brings front and center, what everybody's worried about, which is that this is a rigged system where certain insiders have certain information and they're acting on that information. I'll tell you, someone needs to investigate this because if they did, there should be will be, I certainly hope AT double L to pay. Not good, not good. A lot of questions about that because by the way, normally you would file with the SEC this Securities and Exchange Commission whenever you have one of these stock sales and yet these guys over first republic according to The Wall Street Journal, they didn't. They didn't file the forms at the SEC. They only did it with the FDIC and I don't even understand how that happens, given that you're a publicly traded company. So this is weird. Really, really weird. And so now they're getting a bailout. I am sure there's a bunch of government pressure right now on some of the bigger banks to say, hey guys, we need your help here. Step in, do the right thing.

"That stuff comes second nature so there's never a matter of focus there but just the focus of messing with microsoft word messing with excel those other little skills that you use in a nine to five job. Those i haven't been using as much now. It's just a lot of video editing audio editing. A lot of canvas to create graphics the graphics etcetera it has been It's been a very interesting journey. And i'm glad that along the way i got to self improve. Learn some new skills. Try some new tricks and hopefully allow all of these lessons and stories to be passed on to you. Folks who are hoping in similar situations hopefully in better situations and Hopefully take something from it. So i wanted to give you folks that update regarding the podcast. We got some great guests on the horizon. And i think we're going to be switching a release date from mid week. Which is wednesdays. Were probably gonna start releasing the episodes saturday just because i feel like it's just a better way to on load the block of shows. Release on the network like right now. Wednesday is usually turn tabloid thursdays on told friday's sometimes is black of the new black. Then saturday it's another turnbuckle tabloid then Sunday we we do a live Eat for life podcast etc. So either saturday or sunday or when we're gonna start releasing New episodes of toys and tech of the trade going forward. I think it will just be a little easier and more manageable to record more episodes during the week especially now if my daughter going to school i can get more guests in on the week during the week then versus the weekend when some people's time as a little bit more limited so probably not the next episode that bestowed after that will start being released a saturday or sunday once once pin down a formal date. Of course i will mention it. There now Prior to the little break that we took we had recorded a qna. Which i didn't finish. But i also took advantage since i didn't finish it in was able to add some additional. Qna questions so with that said we're going to take a quick break and jump into the as from an unreleased episode share those and then wrap things up and close out the show so without any further do.

And its apologies excuses. Whatever the case may be but I have to break that rule myself. Because i owe you folks on apology. I know that we haven't had new episodes in quite some time but the funny thing was actually recorded an episode. That was part. Qna part update on what was going on with the podcast rage. Works brand and everything. In between. And i said it's an auto publish and all of that fun stuff and when i was prepping to release this episode i noticed damn that episode did not auto publish so i ended up having to rerecord portions of it because some of the information now is dated and as such you folks are probably going to be getting two episodes of in very close proximity to each other. Of course this one with this week's gassed and the qna and update episode on. What's been going on. I wanna do that. Initially i was going to scrap entirely. But i think that there's a lot to unpack with. What's been going on with. Rage works with myself personally and with the future of the network the brand and even this show so i owe you folks that and i want to release that episode Very very soon so. Be on the lookout for that lagman least as always. I want to thank everybody who has been connecting with us on social media whether it's following the rewards brand. The rage works podcast network on twitter or any of our social accounts. We try to keep people up.

"I'm like it's all blurred. This point one actually missed my first properties between the age of eighteen nineteen. But i was actually able to do that without coast on next to my dad's gyns along the day on a long way in helping me with my car. Things like that to cosign so they will do that alone with the money i saved up and that's how i got into my first rental property investment. Now when when you got into the rental property where you also Rehabbing the homes yourself. Because i know a lot of people they by the rental properties they put a little money into it or they do the work themselves. No when i was actually focused turkey point because it was really focused on the business still so during the tours and like the creating virtual tours and things like that so i i was looking at turnkey properties. Nice and then what you what would you do. Did you have somebody on the. Did you hire a company like collect rental income at the time. Or were you just holding the properties and then just flipping them from a sales perspective. No actually did the did management myself. Wow it back. I probably wouldn't do that now. But yeah i was doing that. But this thing that we're talking about was very short lived because as soon as two thousand seventeen thousand eight it Whenever that crash was right now that any really hard and i ended up amid that like this holding short so i was really very getting started in this space. It and doing this type of things for me. Managing myself made sense. If you would have tapped another year or two at the end of that it was really well. I'm sure i would have found somebody. Sit to manage that four but initially. It was excited out in fun. I really didn't have enough time in that space to be able to to feel the need to somebody that workout at that point man to be a fly on the wall and have a seventeen year..

"I've never done a documentary in my life. But i had the teachers to tell me the counselors in google and youtube to save my life so honestly even when i graduated. It's through the do the internet gods of google and youtube that got me to want to take this into a creative space where it wasn't just doing it for a company or doing your for someone who was really just myself in applying it to what makes me happy and via games was the the core of that was like if i can be myself and play video games than in somehow. Find a way to get paid for that. That's that's amazing. So that's why. I just figured we'll audio engineering. Like editing audio was really fun for me. Just doing it for the assignments that i had to do but then of course. The concentration was broadcast journalism. So it took me away from audio and it put me more into. You're going to be a anchor. You're going to be someone. That's going to be an intern for eyewitness news or nbc. And you have to know how to be camera ready. You have to know how to do this and you have to know how to do that to the point where i also was on a talk show at school. I was on a collegiate talk. Show program called the roundabout where it was me in three other hosts and we were on. Tv we were on tv and we won an award for being on camera and basically being a college version of the view. That's what it was. Oh and if you go to william paterson you can see my my photo. Was there with the so. It's not like it didn't happen. Totally did But that's where. I got my training to know how to conduct myself in this communications world and again i that was twenty thirteen to finally be able to sit in two thousand twenty slash twenty twenty one to finally feel comfortable doing this on my own and not completely on my own but having support like you support lay my girlfriend and my friends and even my family. Some of my cousins were like. I saw that thing on youtube or like what you see me so it definitely has been a journey that i could obviously never predicted but it's it's a blessing to finally do something that i want to do. And it's fun and no one's pressuring me. No one's telling me how to do this and do that. And it's just so cool that it's my name and my face and people actually like it. Tell me tell me. A little bit about the The korean pop music flash mob that you did. Why do you know about that. Oh my god so that was again. Another time where. I was sad in college I just transferred to william patterson. And i didn't have any friends and i got to korean pop music back in two thousand and eight two thousand and yet to donate two thousand nine now to that. Okay two thousand saying this. Because i'm a k pop. Bet i don't want anyone to be like well. She doesn't know what she's talking about. So basically two thousand seven. I knew about k pop. So i don't want to hear any all of this. Will you know such and such.

One day and sitting down and taking notes and going through the events the different events in seeing other people and seeing the progression of their podcast. Like you know what joy for real if you did have a podcast. What would you do. And i was like. You know what. I'm gonna have this idea and it took me even months to even make a note a serious note like joy podcast ideas and i would just start writing what i could do. I notice what was different from other people's that they're doing they're not doing and i'm like okay. Well i know if i were to have something. Maybe i would do it this way and if i have to do something i need to have music. I need to have this and to have a theme and you have this. So all. Those months of watching other people and being a part of their journey inspired me to write. What my journey could be like. And then i sat on it for months and months. I didn't even want to tell anybody my idea. Because i was so scared that someone was going to steal it and i was like i'm not i can't tell you what it is. 'cause people would ask me joy..

"God save your money. Give yourself in emergency funds. Give yourself a cushion. So that if you do have these horrible instances at work where you're not you're being mistreated or you know you start to see that. Your mental is taking a hit. I was enduring a year. And a half of what i would refer to as workplace abuse. And i couldn't leave. Because i had been so lackadaisical with my money that i didn't have a cushion and if i had had a cushion i would i literally would have walked right out of that office and told everybody to go to hell and i would have bounced but i didn't and that was a huge fear had an apartment to pay for i. Didn't you know asking my parents for money would have been probably most. You know the worst thing in my mind because it would have meant that. I wasn't as successful as i thought i was. But i'm save your money. Give yourself that cushion so that if you do need to make some sort of a drastic decision you're doing it with some level of intelligence that you have the ability to sustain yourself and then you can actively look for jobs. And if it's a a non cova job market you'll be able to find one right But it's the market right. Now is a little hectic. So i don't exactly encourage anyone if you have a stable job to leave speak. I'm speaking for experience. It's not pretty out there but You know. I wanted to kind of bring that full circle because you touched on a lot of things in your bio that i said you know i kind of want to dig into that because funny we're talking about you know the the tools that that are part of your business in the stuff that's part of your business and i think that your experiences are part of your business right so i kinda wanted to to really dig into that now i want. I wanna talk a little bit about when i started..

"But when you dig into who. He was a person he was. He was a controlling maniac. You know great an amazing human being but an asshole you know and i think that's that's one of the toughest parts that a lot of people a lot of creators bump into that. They're so busy trying to be everybody else that they kind of get in their own way. Now you're right about that and it's so and that's a really good point that you just brought up the part of my bio because that was the biggest thing that i struggled with was obviously i. I was growing the governor brand and at my day job at the time you know there was probably one female. Vp and. i was so excited you know growing in that career. Because i wanted. I aspired to be just like her. She was that lone soldier. And i couldn't wait to get you know to her levels. I could join her and all her success and she'd been there for so long And then when. I finally started working with her. I was like wow. You really don't care about anyone but yourself and that was really hard for me. Because i to me. Success is not me climbing up the top to the top of the ladder. It's the people you bring with you. The people you see succeed was you in. When i was a director i had five women working for me and to this day. I'm still super close with every single. One of them. And i love when they find success and i love when they're climbing lot ladder love when they're getting promoted. I love when they're enjoying what they're doing and if they're not i'm helping them fix their resumes. I'm helping them find jobs that work for them. I'm going on calls to you. Know make reference calls for them. Because that's that's what's meaningful to me.
