#794: Why Inflation Is Designed To Crush You with Gary Brode

<p>Gary Brode joins Marty Bent to break down his month in El Salvador and the new white paper making the case that Bitcoin is officially a currency. They dig into Nayib Bukele's controversial rule, why the Federal Reserve no longer controls long-term interest rates, and why government overspending — not central bank policy — is driving persistent inflation. Brode also explains his shift from OpenAI to Anthropic, his bet on Intel and AMD as AI moves from training to inference, and why uranium and energy assets round out his portfolio alongside Bitcoin, gold, and silver.</p>
