    AI Is Rewriting the Economy — Jordi Visser’s Bold Predictions

    AI is not just hype, it’s the next economic revolution. In this solo episode, we break down the game-changing insights of Jordi Visser, macro investor and founder of @VisserLabs, as he unpacks how AI is reshaping global markets, jobs, and the financial system. We’ll explore why AI is driving trillions in new capital investment, how it’s changing labor markets, and why Bitcoin (BTC) may be the “purest AI investment play.” Plus, I share my real-world experiences using AI agents, n8n workflows, and automation tools to streamline work and build new digital products.  Key Takeaways Jordi Visser says betting against AI = betting against innovation. $500B+ in AI infrastructure investment coming by 2026. Bitcoin could be the ultimate AI hedge. Massive white-collar job disruption ahead — but also opportunity.

    Jeff Booth: The Truth About Money, Inflation, and Hope in a Broken System | The Price of Tomorrow

    In this powerful episode of Pushing the Limits, Lisa Tamati sits down with visionary entrepreneur, Bitcoin OG, and author of The Price of Tomorrow — Jeff Booth. Jeff shares his profound insights on why our current financial system is breaking under the weight of exponential technological deflation and debt-driven inflation, and why Bitcoin offers not just an alternative — but a path toward hope, truth, and sovereignty. Together, they explore how exponential technology is rewriting the rules of economics, why central banks can’t stop printing without collapse, and what a deflationary future built on sound money could mean for humanity’s evolution. Booth’s clarity on macroeconomics, human nature, and the moral imperative of Bitcoin offers a deeply philosophical — yet practical — roadmap for navigating the coming decade. If you’ve ever wondered how innovation, integrity, and decentralised systems intersect to redefine the future of money and freedom, this episode is essential listening. Jeff Booth Bio: Jeff Booth is a visionary leader, technology entrepreneur and best-selling author of The Price of Tomorrow – Why Deflation is Key to an Abundant Future.  With his expertise in technology, system thinking and design, he is at the forefront of a transition from an economic system built for the past, and one built for the future. Jeff has been featured in Forbes, TechCrunch, Inc.com, The Globe and Mail, BNN, Fast Company, Entrepreneur, Bloomberg, TIME, and The Wall Street Journal. In 2015, he was named BC Technology Industry Association’s (BCTIA) Person of the Year, and in 2016 Goldman Sachs named him among its 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs. He is a Founding Partner of Ego Death Capital, Co-Founder of addy and NocNoc.  He has been a Young Presidents Organization member since 2004 and contributes time as a Founding Fellow at the Creative Destruction Lab.

    How Augmented NAC Helps with Long COVID & MCAS with Dr Tina Peers

    Looking for answers on how to detox spike protein and recover from lingering health challenges after infection or vaccination? In this exclusive interview, Dr Tina Peers shares the science and clinical experience behind Augmented NAC— a breakthrough supplement developed through the Zero Spike Project. Unlike standard NAC (N-acetyl cysteine), which is well-known as a precursor to glutathione, Augmented NAC is quantum-enhanced to dramatically increase its potency.
