🎙🧠 EPI 120 - The Legislation of Gold & Silver, w/ JP Cortez, Executive Director of the Sound Money Defense League

On episode 120, we bring back our friend JP Cortez who’s been spear heading the movement to remove legislative barriers like taxes in individual states on precious metals which is sound money. We begin talking about the exponential progress being observed legislatively since the beginning of 2024. We discuss the current political landscape and the shift in gold’s place in the global order.

Jp Cortez is the Executive Director of the Sound Money Defense League, a nationally renowned policy group known for its fervent commitment to advocating for a stable and constitutional monetary system. With a passion for Austrian economics and a deep understanding of monetary history, Cortez has become a leading voice in the movement to restore sound money to its rightful place in society. A graduate of Auburn University, Cortez's journey into the world of monetary policy began with his recognition of the importance of sound money in preserving individual liberty and long-term economic prosperity. He has since channeled his knowledge and enthusiasm into promoting awareness about the inherent risks of fiat currency and the benefits of returning to a sound monetary system.



Under Jp Cortez's leadership, the Sound Money Defense League has flourished, striving to engage the public, policymakers, and grassroots organizations in meaningful discussions about money, monetary policy, and the U.S. Constitution. His dedication to fostering open dialogue and his unyielding belief in the power of sound money has galvanized a growing community of supporters. With legislative victories in more than a dozen states since 2018, his work encompasses grassroots advocacy, educational campaigns, and collaborative endeavors with like-minded organizations, all aimed at fostering a broader understanding of the vital link between sound money and individual liberty.

His articles and analysis have appeared in Reuters, Business Insider, Huffington Post, Newsweek, Washington Examiner, and more. He is also the lead author of the Sound Money Index, an annual report that ranks all 50 states to determine which states offer the most pro-sound money environment in the country.

The Sound Money Defense League is focusing like a laser beam on restoring gold and silver to its historic role as America's constitutional money.

On episode 119, we start off by the question of why is there a mismatch in the marketplace between what is desired versus what truly is. Our education to our culture amplifies and reinforces this ignorance, and it comes at a cost. Now within that chaos, opportunities arise, but we must put effort into understanding what drives these opportunities. As investors allowing the macro conditions to drive our investment thesis, we must also include the differential between what value is relative to what price is. We also touch upon the development of copper, its performance and how the potential of recession may impact its price. Silver’s explosive price action was not left out of this conversation.

Lobo Tiggre is the founder and CEO of Louis James LLC, and the principal analyst and editor of IndependentSpeculator.com. He researched and recommended speculative opportunities in Casey Research publications from 2004 to 2018, writing under the name "Louis James." While with Casey Research, he learned the ins and outs of resource speculation from the legendary speculator Doug Casey. Although frequently mistaken for one, Mr. Tiggre is not a professional geologist. However, his long tutelage under world-class geologists, writers, and investors resulted in an exceptional track record. The average of the yearly gains published for the flagship Casey publication, the International Speculator, was 18.5% per year during Tiggre's time with the publication. A fully transparent, documented, and verifiable track record is a central feature of IndependentSpeculator.com services going forward. Another key feature is that Mr. Tiggre will put his own money into the speculations he writes about, so his readers will always know he has "skin in the game" with them.

The Independent Speculator is a flagship monthly publication. It delivers actionable ideas, information and analysis via disclosure and discussion of actual investments we make. This is not a theoretical approach to speculation. The trades are real. So is the money we risk. And so is the opportunity for clients to enter the same or similar trades

In the tenth episode of NewGen Mindset's "Capital Market Series," Nic and Dan sit down with Eric Ronsse from The Good Shroom Co. They begin by getting to know Eric and his past experiences, which led him to venture into the cannabis industry and establish the public company known as The Good Shroom Co. Eric provides an overview of the cannabis landscape and the opportunities his company has been able to seize.

The Good Shroom Co. operates on three fundamental pillars that define their operations and success: Analytics, Network/Logistics, and Branding. Having established themselves as a reputable and reliable partner in their home market of Quebec, these pillars guide their business strategy. As a non-producer marijuana company, they focus on market feedback and their well-established network of producers to create new brands in various segments. Their products include offerings in the hash, flower, and edibles segments, with ongoing R&D projects to support their national strategy.

With the cannabis industry still in its infancy as a legal market, there are companies worth watching that are well-positioned to evolve and grow alongside it. The Good Shroom Co. is one such company.


Eric Ronsse - CEO
Eric has over a decade of executive leadership and management experience in the food distribution, third-party logistics and functional beverage sectors. He has a passion for the functional food space and is a firm believer in building brand loyalty through sustainable corporate practices. He has also been involved in the legal cannabis industry since its inception.


The Good Shroom Co Inc. develops, manufactures, and sells instant wellness beverages in Canada and the United States. It offers a range of tea and coffee-based functional mushroom beverages under the Teonan brand; cannabis-infused functional mushroom beverages under the Velada brand; and hash products under the Nordique Royale brand. It offers its products through retail and online stores, and third-party platforms. The company is headquartered in Québec, Canada.

On episode 118, we bring back on Andy Schectman to have a timely discussion with the shake up happening in the global order. The point of the discussion is rooted in "what the hell is going on in the world?". We touch on the fracturing between East and West and how it is translating into a desire to reset/re-structure the global financial system. From BRICs, to de-dollarization to the petro-dollar and the significant moves being made by eastern forces such as China and Russia.

Andy Schectman has been a prominent figure in the financial services industry for more than 25 years, during which he has served as President and owner of Miles Franklin, Precious Metals. Before starting Miles Franklin, Ltd.
Prior to starting Miles Franklin, Ltd. in 1989, Andrew became a Licensed Financial Planner, specializing in Swiss Franc Investments and alternative investments. At Miles Franklin Ltd., a company that has eclipsed $9 billion in sales, Andrew has developed an operation that maintains trust, collaboration, and ethical behavior, superior customer service and satisfaction to better serve their clients. He is responsible for overseeing the firm’s operations and business functions; including strategy and planning, account management, finance, and new business.

Miles Franklin is anything but an ordinary gold and silver coin company. Our approach provides a creative strategy for diversifying one’s assets with precious metals. This strategy has been yielding positive results for clients nationwide since 1989.
Miles Franklin was founded by David and Andrew Schectman. Our vision was to offer a wide variety of bullion and numismatic products, extensive broker expertise, and fair pricing.
Unlike traditional coin dealers, Miles Franklin is both a full service company and a low overhead discount broker. We believe that fair pricing plus extensive client education and support can and should exist hand-in-hand.

The misplaced distain for uranium and its role in the energy transition and the awakening of M&A activity in the mining space as this commodity war escalates.
