#426 Jeremy Ryan Slate - America Is Repeating Rome's Fatal Mistakes

Zuby is joined by CEO of Command Your Brand and creator of The Roman Pattern, Jeremy Ryan Slate. Jeremy shares the parallels between the fall of the Roman Empire and the current trajectory of the United States and the West. From currency debasement and open borders to the feminisation and gender confusion he traces all back to first-century Rome. The conversation explores what happens when a civilisation stops producing serious leaders, the double-edged sword of modern technology, why democracy incentivises short-termism, and whether America can escape the same fate that ended a thousand-year civilisation.
