How does Martin believe central bank digital currencies will affect the future of finance, borrowing, and the overall economy? With rising government discontent and predicted collapses in confidence, what indicators should we watch to gauge the stability of government systems? What are the historical precedents for capital migration during times of war or conflict, and how are we seeing this take place today? Martin A Armstrong is back on the 2 Vikings podcast again. He is a former financial advisor and hedge fund manager who gained prominence for his economic forecasting abilities. He started his career in the early 1970s and quickly became known for his unique approach to analyzing financial markets. One of Armstrong's notable contributions to the field of economics is the development of the Economic Confidence Model (ECM). The ECM is a cyclical model that aims to predict economic and political events based on a series of mathematical calculations. According to Armstrong, these cycles repeat over time and can be used to forecast market trends with remarkable accuracy. Armstrong's forecasting abilities gained widespread attention in the late 1980s when he accurately predicted the Black Monday stock market crash of 1987. His model also successfully predicted various other major events, including the Japanese asset bubble collapse in the early 1990s and the Russian financial crisis in 1998. In addition to his economic forecasting work, Armstrong also founded Princeton Economics International Ltd., a research firm that provided economic analysis and consulting services to clients worldwide. The company's clients included governments, central banks, and major corporations. While he gained recognition for accurately predicting major market events, he also faced legal troubles and was convicted of contempt of court. Armstrong spent several years fighting the charges against him and was ultimately convicted of contempt of court for refusing to hand over computer files related to his forecasting models. He was sentenced to prison in 2000 and remained incarcerated until 2011. You can see his story in the documentary "The forecaster" During his time in prison, Armstrong continued to write about economics and finance. He gained a following of supporters who believed in his forecasting abilities and viewed him as a victim of government persecution. Armstrong's writings, which were published on his website, often delved into topics such as market manipulation, government corruption, and the flaws of the financial system. Since his release from prison, Armstrong has continued to publish his economic insights and analysis on his website. He has also been involved in various legal battles related to his case and has become an advocate for reforming the justice system. Armstrong continues to share his economic insights through his website but remains a controversial figure in the field of economics We talk about: 00:00 Allegations of election interference and financial corruption. 09:14 Discoveries made by accident, not intentional pursuit. 15:39 Refusing to sell, setting off chain of events. 17:32 Russia's large natural resource reserves are tempting. 28:15 Congress to vote, circumventing, dangerous power grab, inflation. 31:15 Became largest institutional advisors in the world. 35:03 Historical revolts sparked democracy, not communication speed. 42:48 Urgent need for CBDCs to control debt. 48:12 Decrees make no sense, unsustainable federal spending. 51:20 Shocking dinner conversation at Mar a Largo. 58:18 Rising discontent may lead to stock market pullback. 01:04:21 High priest determined leap year, leading to corruption. 01:10:42 Gold brokers indicative of upcoming restrictions, collapse. 01:17:11 Migration increases traffic, taxes and bribery issues. 01:18:58 Model predicts war but people want peace. 01:24:09 AfD leader supports Brexit model for Germany. 01:32:28 Colombians pay for heart transplant to escape. 01:34:09 Government funds for medical procedures exploited.

What is the truth? Are there only one truth? We are curious what is the truth and can it be it many different truths? One man that has been searching for the truth is back on the podcast for the second time. James Delingpole is a British journalist, author, and broadcaster known for his controversial opinions on various topics, including climate change, politics, and culture. Delingpole began his career as a journalist in the late 1980s, writing for various publications such as The Daily Telegraph and The Spectator. He gained recognition for his witty and often provocative writing style, which resonated with a conservative audience. Over the years, Delingpole has written numerous articles and opinion pieces on a wide range of subjects, earning him both praise and criticism from different quarters. One of the areas where Delingpole has been particularly vocal is climate change. He is known for his skepticism towards mainstream scientific consensus on the issue and has often criticized what he perceives as alarmism surrounding climate change. Delingpole has argued that climate change is either exaggerated or not primarily caused by human activity. These views have made him a controversial figure within the scientific community and have led to heated debates with proponents of mainstream climate science. In addition to his work as a journalist, Delingpole has also authored several books. One of his most well-known works is "Watermelons: How Environmentalists are Killing the Planet, Destroying the Economy, and Stealing Your Children's Future." In this book, Delingpole argues that environmentalism is a cover for socialist ideologies and that policies aimed at combating climate change are detrimental to economic growth and individual freedom.

Nearly two-thirds of the planet is on the brink of desertification. Could this alarming trend be a driving force behind climate change? There's a prevailing notion that wild animals disrupt natural habitats, but what lessons were learned from the culling of 40,000 elephants? Did this drastic action alleviate the problem, or did it exacerbate the environmental crisis? What can each of us do about it? If you are not interested in climate change we can promise that there are a lot of life-lessons to be learned from this episode. Allan had a famous TED talk back in 2013 and it has been seen almost 9 million times. He is also the founder of the Savory Institute. Allan Savory is a Zimbabwean ecologist, farmer, and environmentalist, born on September 15, 1935. He is best known for developing the holistic management framework, an approach to managing resources such as land, livestock, and water in a sustainable and regenerative way. Savory's holistic management emphasizes the interconnectedness of ecological, social, and economic factors in decision-making. One of the key principles is the use of properly managed grazing of livestock as a tool to restore and maintain healthy grasslands. Savory argues that well-managed grazing mimics the natural behavior of large herds of wild herbivores, contributing to soil fertility, biodiversity, and overall ecosystem health. Enjoy

What Historical and Contemporary Factors Lead Nations to War? What Catalysts Have Historically Driven Humanity to Form New Social Systems? How Does David Murrin Anticipate the Near Future Will Unfold in Terms of Global Dynamics and Societal Changes? David has been described as a polymath who started his career as a geophysicist, and who then entered finance at JP Morgan where he worked for seven years. Since then for more than two and a half decades he has been running his own hedge fund. During his financial career, his main focus has been on finding and understanding collective human behavioral patterns that comprise the study of human systems behavior. Including deep-seated ‘patterns’ in history and then using them to predict the future for geopolitics and markets in today’s turbulent times. He has a remarkable track record. David has written four books. Breaking the Code of History recognizes that post 9/11, the world changed in an instant. Using his theory's of human social structures he was able to successfully predict back in 2007 the key process in human social structures that have impacted today’s changing world, including the decline of America and the West and the rise of China, and the reality of climate change. His second book released in 2018 is Lions Led By Lions which examines Britain’s misunderstood involvement in the First World War and the achieved learning curve of its Army's leadership that resulted in a war-winning British Expeditionary Force rolling back the German Army in 1918. The story provides clear lessons that should be applied by today's leaders concerning the deterrence of global conflict. David's third book is a call to arms, in which his Now or Never UK Defense Review highlights the clear and present threats faced by Britain in the years and decade ahead from Russia and especially China, and the urgency for the need for large scale rearmament to secure the future peace. David's latest book Red Lightning which integrates fact and fiction and describes from a future perspective how China wins WW3 in 2025. It is a sober warning to the leaders of the Western World, that peace will only be maintained by a hard-won deterrence of aggression. Enjoy!

Have you ever wondered if remote viewing or telepathy is more than just science fiction? Do some individuals possess the extraordinary ability to perform remote viewing? Have various intelligence agencies employed this talent for years? In this episode, we delve into the intriguing world of parapsychology and consciousness research, seeking to unravel these mysteries. Dean Radin, Ph.D., is a prominent figure in the field of parapsychology and consciousness research. With a background in electrical engineering and a Ph.D. in psychology, he has spent much of his career exploring phenomena that mainstream science often finds controversial, such as psychic abilities, telepathy, and the impact of consciousness on the physical world. Radin's work is significant for several reasons: Research and Experimentation: Radin is known for conducting rigorous scientific experiments into various aspects of parapsychology, especially extrasensory perception (ESP), telepathy, and psychokinesis. He has worked to apply standard scientific methodologies to areas often considered fringe by mainstream scientists. Publications and Books: He has authored several influential books, including "The Conscious Universe" and "Entangled Minds," which present a comprehensive review of psychic phenomena from a scientific perspective. These books have played a significant role in making the topic of psychic phenomena accessible and somewhat more acceptable in the scientific community. Institutional Involvement: Radin has worked at prestigious research institutions, including Princeton University, University of Edinburgh, and the University of Nevada. He is also the Chief Scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS), a research center that aims to explore the potential of human consciousness. Global Consciousness Project: Radin has been involved with the Global Consciousness Project, an initiative that looks at interconnected human consciousness and its potential impact on the physical world, particularly through random number generators. Academic Contributions: Through his research and publications, Radin has contributed to the academic discussion on consciousness and parapsychology, challenging the boundaries of conventional scientific understanding. Bridging Science and Spirituality: One of Radin's most significant impacts is his effort to bridge the gap between science and spirituality, proposing that understanding psychic phenomena can expand our understanding of the nature of reality.
