Is the West collapsing, or is the planet? Political commentator Konstantin Kisin and rebel economist Steve Keen go head-to-head on the biggest questions facing the West: immigration, the debt crisis, climate change, Trump, China and the future of AI. Konstantin Kisin is a satirist, social commentator and author, best known as the co-host of the Triggernometry podcast and the author of ‘An Immigrant’s Love Letter to the West’. Born in the Soviet Union and now based in Britain, he has become one of the most prominent voices on free speech, culture and the rise of populism. Steve Keen is an economist, author and one of the most vocal critics of mainstream economic thinking. A former Professor of Economics, he is the author of several books including ‘Debunking Economics’ and ‘The New Economics: A Manifesto’, and is currently writing his upcoming book ‘How Economists Will Destroy Capitalism’. He is known for his work on private debt, financial crises and the failures of conventional economic models, and for correctly warning of the 2008 financial crash. They debate: ◼ Why almost everything governments tell you about debt and borrowing could be wrong ◼ Whether a socialist government could actually be good for the economy ◼ Why AI could quietly strip away human free will ◼ Why Konstantin believes mass immigration is pushing the West toward civil unrest ◼ Why Steve thinks climate change, not politics, is the real threat that dwarfs everything else Chapters 00:00:00 Intro 00:02:05 We're on the Road to Civil Unrest 00:08:04 Where This Leads: Unrest and Violence 00:11:11 I Grew Up in the Soviet Union 00:12:12 Steve Keen: Capitalism Is About to Fail 00:20:49 "We're Not Spending Enough" 00:23:58 Should Britain Drill in the North Sea? 00:28:39 "You Can't Defend Yourself Against This" 00:32:48 The World Government Admission 00:36:55 "Brace for Impact" - Climate Change Is Here 00:40:03 "It's Too Late" - What Breakdown Looks Like 00:45:11 The Trap Trump Walked Into 00:48:49 The Famine He Says Is Coming 00:50:53 How Does Trump Get Out of This? 00:53:35 Does America Need a Socialist President? 00:55:37 Why China Works and the Soviet Union Didn't 01:01:10 "Would You Prefer the Chinese System?" — "Yes" 01:05:09 Will Andy Burnham Change Britain's Trajectory? 01:11:00 Wokeism: A Hierarchy of Oppression 01:13:30 AI, Mass Unemployment and The Hunger Games 01:17:21 Best Case a Pet, Worst Case a Cow 01:20:54 Can You Program Love Into an AI? 01:26:07 Nobody Can Stop It So How Do You Live?

Former US Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg says the American experiment is on the brink. He argues that the country is at risk of losing its democracy, the problems Americans feel every day are not accidents, and that fixing it will mean doing the hard things almost no one wants to do. Pete Buttigieg is the former United States Secretary of Transportation, the former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, a Rhodes Scholar, and a Navy veteran who served in Afghanistan. He ran for president in 2020 and is now widely regarded as one of the frontrunners for the Democratic nomination for President in 2028. Out of office for the first time in years, he speaks with unusual candour about power, war, the economy, and where America goes next. He explains: ◼ Why he believes American democracy is genuinely on the brink, and what it would actually take to save it ◼ The real story behind the strike on Iran and the "ceasefire" that wasn't ◼ Why a billionaire can pay a lower tax rate than a teacher or a firefighter, and whether a wealth tax is the answer ◼ How AI is about to disrupt not just jobs but people's identities, and who he thinks should share in the gains ◼ What he says the administration really hid about the American troops who died The views expressed are those of the guest, and this conversation is intended for general informational purposes only.

He explains: ◼ Why he believes American democracy is genuinely on the brink, and what it would actually take to save it ◼ The real story behind the strike on Iran and the "ceasefire" that wasn't ◼ Why a billionaire can pay a lower tax rate than a teacher or a firefighter, and whether a wealth tax is the answer ◼ How AI is about to disrupt not just jobs but people's identities, and who he thinks should share in the gains ◼ What he says the administration really hid about the American troops who died The views expressed are those of the guest, and this conversation is intended for general informational purposes only.

Nearly 1 in 3 American adults now take vitamin D, but Dr. Stasha Gominak says many of them are taking it wrong, and that done carelessly, supplementing can leave you worse off than before. Dr. Stasha Gominak practiced neurology for over 20 years. She earned her MD from Baylor College of Medicine and completed her neurology residency at the Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital. After working with her own patients, she believes that nearly everyone struggling to sleep shares the same hidden deficiency, a conclusion she published in 2 papers and built into RightSleep, the method she now teaches full time. She explains: ◼ Why she believes your skin is the best producer of vitamin D, and why she says no amount of pills or salmon can replace it ◼ Why she believes insomnia isn't a behavior problem but a chemical deficiency, and what she thinks changed when we moved indoors ◼ The role she says your gut bacteria play in producing your B vitamins ◼ Why she believes taking vitamin D on its own can burn through your B vitamins, and what she says happened when she tried it herself ◼ Why she connects the rise in conditions like ADHD, depression, fatty liver and diabetes to the same period, and what she thinks links them ◼ Why she considers supplements a form of biohacking, and just as risky as any drug if you get them wrong The views expressed are those of the guest, and this conversation is intended for general informational purposes only.

He explains: ■ Why the US bombing campaign failed to topple Iran’s regime, even after killing its top leaders ■ How Iran seized control of 20% of the world’s oil supply within days of the war starting ■ Why the failed agreement handed Iran a path to becoming the most powerful country in the region ■ Why both China and Russia gain from America staying stuck in the Middle East ■ Why he thinks US ground troops could be next ■ Why he thinks there will be a clash between Congress and the president over who really controls the power to go to war Chapters 00:00:00 Intro 00:02:22 Why Robert Pape Isn't Surprised 00:04:04 Why the US Blocked the Strait of Hormuz 00:05:23 The Secret JD Vance Peace Deal (MOU) 00:08:13 Iran as Regional Hegemon, Explained 00:09:40 How Do We Know This Is the Real Document? 00:21:05 Did the War Actually Make Iran Stronger? 00:22:06 The Viral Tweet: How Is Iran Still Hitting US Bases? 00:24:37 Trump Says Iran Is Destroyed — So How? 00:25:39 Where Iran Hides Its Drones ("A Truck in California") 00:29:04 Iran Is Building New Drones the Whole Time 00:32:17 Are We on the Verge of a Global Economic Crisis? 00:36:27 What "Owning the L" Would Actually Look Like 00:38:37 Trump: The US Runs Out of Oil in 4 Weeks 00:40:32 The Midterm Elections Time Bomb 00:52:13 The Vietnam Parallel: LBJ's Trap 00:55:06 Can the US Force the Strait of Hormuz Open? 01:03:07 A 70% Chance of Boots on the Ground in Iran 01:14:39 Why Invading (Not Bombing) Sparks Suicide Attacks 01:24:05 When the Two Crises Collide: A New 1960s? 01:25:01 Will Trump Lose the Midterms? 01:26:40 Is the US Running Out of Weapons? 01:28:40 What Is Trump's Real Objective? 01:34:19 Pape's Prediction for the Next Few Months Follow Robert: ◼ X - https://link.thediaryofaceo.com/168aNAX ◼LinkedIn - https://link.thediaryofaceo.com/EeC1Rpx ◼Substack - https://link.thediaryofaceo.com/6GWlu8Q  You can pre-order Robert's new book, ‘Our Own Worst Enemies: America and the Age of Violent Populism’ here: https://link.thediaryofaceo.com/9XIQBJ9  The Diary Of A CEO: ■ Join DOAC circle here - https://doaccircle.com/ ■ Buy The Diary Of A CEO book here - https://smarturl.it/DOACbook ■ The 1% Diary is back, limited time only - https://bit.ly/3YFbJbt ■ The Diary Of A CEO Conversation Cards - https://linkly.link/2hm7r ■ Get email updates - https://bit.ly/diary-of-a-ceo-yt ■ Follow Steven - https://g2ul0.app.link/gnGqL4IsKKb Sponsors: Pipedrive - https://pipedrive.com/CEO  HeyGen - https://heygen.com/doac

Every founder is being told to build an AI company. Alex Hormozi says almost all of them will be gone within months, that the best move is the exact opposite of what the market is saying, and that in a world of AI the only moat left will be reality and your reputation. Alex Hormozi is a entrepreneur, investor and author. He is the co-founder of Acquisition.com, a portfolio of 16+ companies generating over $250 million a year, and the author of the $100M series: '$100M Offers', '$100M Leads' and '$100M Money Models', whose 2025 launch sold 2.9 million copies in a single day and broke the Guinness World Record for the fastest-selling non-fiction book in history. He explains: ◼ Why the practical businesses, like plumbing, are the real opportunity, not the ones built on top of AI models ◼ Why delegating your hardest thinking to a machine makes you weak ◼ Why reality and reputation are the only moats AI can't erode ◼ Why revenue retention matters more than marketing or sales ◼ Why marrying his wife Leila was the best financial decision he ever made, and how the right partner changes your odds ◼ He opens up about one of the hardest years of his life, in the same year he made more money than ever The views expressed are those of the guest, and this conversation is intended for general informational purposes only.

1,700 Americans will die from cancer today. 70 every single hour. Professor Thomas Seyfried says it doesn't have to be this way, and that mainstream oncology has misunderstood cancer for 100 years.

Ex-OpenAI researcher Daniel Kokotajlo walked away from $2 million rather than stay silent, and now reveals why he believes there's a 70% chance AI leads to human extinction, why superintelligence could arrive before the end of the decade, and the one plan he thinks could still save us all! Daniel Kokotajlo is a former OpenAI researcher and one of the world's leading AI forecasters.

UFC legend Dustin Poirier reveals why he can't bring himself to watch the arrest video, the paid deals he's already lost, his vow to never drink again, and why the hardest fight of his life is happening off the mat. Dustin Poirier (“The Diamond”) is a retired UFC lightweight fighter with a 30-10 record, best known as the only man to knock out Conor McGregor in MMA. He founded The Good Fight Foundation with his wife, Jolie, in 2018 and now appears periodically as a desk analyst on UFC broadcasts. In June 2026, he was arrested for public intoxication at an Atlanta airport, after which he shared that he’s struggling with alcohol. He explains: ◼ What losing your career identity feels like, and how to rebuild when the fight is over ◼ How a childhood of poverty, detention and no father figure shaped the man he became ◼ Why elite athletes often fall apart when they retire, and what to do about it ◼ What going to therapy taught him about the pain he didn't know he was carrying ◼ The mental shift that turned losing to Conor McGregor into beating him Follow Dustin: Instagram - https://link.thediaryofaceo.com/E2OdPNk X - https://link.thediaryofaceo.com/3XxRxB YouTube - https://link.thediaryofaceo.com/3DQVB2W The Good Fight Foundation - https://link.thediaryofaceo.com/AbsZdY5 The Diary Of A CEO: ◼ Join DOAC circle here - https://doaccircle.com/ ◼ Buy The Diary Of A CEO book here - https://smarturl.it/DOACbook ◼ The 1% Diary is back - limited time only: https://bit.ly/3YFbJbt ◼ The Diary Of A CEO Conversation Cards: https://linkly.link/2hm7r ◼ Get email updates - https://bit.ly/diary-of-a-ceo-yt ◼ Follow Steven - https://g2ul0.app.link/gnGqL4IsKKb Sponsors: Wispr - Get 14 days of Wispr Flow for free at https://wisprflow.ai/steven Function Health - https://Functionhealth.com/DOAC to sign up for $365 a year.
