    INSIDE THE WORLD OF COMMODITIES WITH ALINE CARNIZELO

    In this episode of the Syz Capital Podcast, Ursula Nitschke, CFA, Head of Business Development & Investor Relations at Syz Capital, sits down with Aline Carnizelo, Managing Partner, CEO & CIO of Frontier Commodities, for a wide-ranging conversation on commodities, investing and leadership. Aline shares her journey into the world of commodities and what it takes to build an edge in one of the most complex areas of global markets. The conversation explores Frontier Commodities' "quantamental" approach, combining fundamental research, data and AI, as well as how investors can navigate volatility, geopolitical uncertainty and rapidly changing market conditions. Ursula and Aline also discuss leadership and Aline's experience building her career as a woman in a traditionally male-dominated part of the investment industry — and what still needs to change to create more opportunities for women in investing and trading.

    Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich Part 2: 555 (Go Go Go) – BTCTCs Expert subseries (B001)

    In the inaugural episode of our new BTCTCs subseries at Syz the Future, Simon Gerovich (https://x.com/gerovich) of Metaplanet (3350:JP / $MTPLF) joins Richard (https://x.com/RichardByworth) in the studio for part 2 of our ongoing conversation on Metaplanet and other Bitcoin treasury companies (BTCTCs). The discussion goes in depth on the ins and outs of a functioning BTCTC, from the different mechanisms needed to continually issue shares into the markets in order to accumulate more bitcoin (e.g. ATM) as well as the very unique solution Metaplanet harnessed to achieve the same. We also chat about put underwriting, Metaplanet's entry into the US, growing institutional interest and the Japanese bond and pref market. As a former derivatives trader at Goldman Sachs, Simon put his trading prowess to task taking Metaplanet to a $7bn market cap from $2bn two months ago when we recorded our first session. The BTCTC journey of Metaplanet began at $10mn market cap 14 months ago.   We believe that BTCTCs are acting as the release valve for the outlandish valuations in the Equity and Bond markets. As such, we felt this moment in time required a deeper dive into their analysis. Welcome to the BTCTC sub-series.   X (Twitter): https://x.com/syzthefuture Richard's X (Twitter): https://x.com/RichardByworth   Find us on your favorite podcast channels: Youtube: https://youtube.com/@syzthefuture Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Cbky4e Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3YUmdV5 Fountain App: https://bit.ly/4e1ItAt Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/SyztheFuture   Instagram: https://instagram.com/syzthefuture Website: http://syzthefuture.com

    Dr. Chris Knobbe: The Hidden History of Seed Oils

    Dr. Chris Knobbe is an ophthalmologist, clinical professor emeritus, researcher and leading voice in health policy unveiling the hidden dangers of seed oils (aka vegetable oils) in our food supply. Driven by the data showing stark correlations between rising chronic disease (coronary heart disease, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, alzheimers/dementia, age-related macular degeneration) and the integration of seed oils into our modern diet, Chris left practice to further research and policy advocacy exploring this troubling and commonly unknown link through AMD Foundation (http://amdfoundation.com) and the book Ancestral Diet Revolution (https://www.amazon.com/Ancestral-Diet-Revolution-Vegetable-Processed/dp/1734071761). After his viral talks at Low Carb Down Under in 2020 (https://youtu.be/7kGnfXXIKZM) and 2023 (https://www.youtu.be/PvZk-jNqzgE), Chris galvanized the discussion scrutinizing the role of "vegetable oils" that are ubiquitous in our modern diet. We caught up with Chris in London for this special episode focused on health, history, and questioning the most basic aspects of our lives today -- our food.
