Today, I want to share a message of hope—one that invites us to reflect on what progress truly looks like in our world today and how it should look moving forward. To help explore this topic, I’m joined by my business partner, Amy LeNoble, and returning guest Charles Hugh Smith.
Charles has been writing about social, economic, and technological trends since 2005 on his widely followed blog. He’s also the author of several thought-provoking books, including his most recent, “Mythology of Progress, Anti-Progress, and a Mythology for the 21st Century.”
In this episode, Charles challenges us to rethink the foundation of our hope. He shares a powerful insight: hope is essential to humanity, but when it’s based on fantasies or delusions, it becomes false hope. He explains how our understanding of progress—both its perception and its reality—plays a critical role in shaping genuine hope.
We’ll unpack the core ideas from Charles’s latest book and discuss the broader implications of progress for individuals and humanity as a whole.

Is the U.S. economy heading for a crisis, or is it still the safest bet in the global marketplace?
Peter Cavelti, an expert with over 50 years of experience in investment and geopolitical analysis, returns to talk about the Fed's recent rate cut, the future of the U.S. dollar, and global economic shifts.
In our wide-ranging conversation, Peter goes pretty deep into why predictions of the dollar's imminent collapse might be exaggerated. Plus we talk about the rising influence of the BRICS nations, and how the United States' debt burden could lead to significant economic consequences.
Cavelti also shares insights into the challenges facing global powers like Europe and Japan, and the shifting dynamics in international capital flows.

A common theme among the guests of UPThinking Finance™ is that the global economy is derailing, and wealth and inequality are leading us to a day of reckoning. However, this sense is not just about monetary implications—there is a spiritual element as well.
There’s a concern that a personal consciousness or self-awareness is needed to create a global transformation. My guest, Emma Slade, is here to talk about her transformative shift from being a global chartered financial analyst to a Buddhist Monk.

Cynthia Chung’s education taught her that energy consumption is destroying our world. It taught her that the hole in our ozone layer was growing. It taught her that the destruction of rainforests was wreaking havoc on humanity. Industry was portrayed as something that killed anything it touched.
Cynthia’s research paints a far different picture. Cynthia dives into the fallacy of green energy in her docuseries, “Escaping Calypso’s Island.”
In her series, Cynthia points out that our entire lives revolve around energy usage. Access to the best medical care, nutritious food, clean water, and adequate shelter depends on energy. Access to affordable energy has diminished poverty, lengthened life, and increased quality of life.
We’re being told that there isn’t enough energy to go around, and that we have to focus on green initiatives. But is that true? Dive deeper with us in this episode of UPThinking Finance™.

Our thoughts and ideas are being molded through the clever use of psychology. Our enemies aren’t generals and admirals but behavioral scientists and psychologists. They know how the brain operates and how to manipulate it.
In 2010, after years in the music industry, DJ Mark Devlin underwent a “conscious awakening.” He started to study the mainstream music industry and how A-list artists have been used to manipulate and mind-control the masses.

The media is completely disconnected from reality. We’ve all known it for a while. The challenge becomes—if we don’t trust the news—where do we source information? How do we filter it? How do we discern the truth?
When did spreading propaganda begin? When did the news become a source we could no longer trust? Michelle Stiles wrote the book, “One Idea To Rule Them All: Reverse Engineering American Propaganda,” to answer these questions. It’s written to expose the realities of the world we live in, in terms of the role of propaganda and manipulation. Don’t miss this eye-opening conversation.
