Trey Lockerbie brings on a very special guest and that is Mr. Kyle Bass, the Founder, and Principal of Hayman Capital Management. Hayman’s first major success came from effectively shorting the housing market in 2008 and Kyle was profiled in Michael Lewis’ book The Big Short. More recently, Kyle has been heavily focused on China and has been sounding alarm bells from everything from their accounting protocols, military initiatives, and central bank digital currency development.  IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN: 04:19 - The early days of Hayman Capital.  23:07 - Why Kyle is protecting his capital by buying farmland.  24:34 - Bitcoin, gold, and central bank digital currencies.  41:23 - Chinese real estate, demographics, accounting concerns. 49:47 - Oil and natural gas and why Kyle thinks we’ll soon be seeing unprecedented prices. And a whole lot more! *Disclaimer: Slight timestamp discrepancies may occur due to podcast platform differences.

Richard Turrin is the best selling author of Innovation Lab Excellence, and recently published his new book Cashless: China's Digital Currency Revolution. This new release covers the story and context of China’s new Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) and the innovation happening in that space.

In this episode, Richard walks us through the efforts China has made to innovate within its Fintech platforms, and how it poses a long-term threat to US Dollar dominance. With smart contracts on the way, what does the world look like with a maximally successful Chinese CBDC? Listen in and find out.

In this episode's exclusive debrief, we dive into all the questions we didn't have time to ask and explore how big of a challenge CBDCs pose to crypto. Get it here:
