The Jay Martin Show

Do institutions like the UN, NATO, and the G7 still matter in a world that’s rapidly shifting toward multipolarity? Jay sits down with geopolitical analyst Glenn Diesen to unpack the decline of Western-led institutions, the rise of geoeconomic blocs, and why outdated power structures are fueling global instability.

In this episode, Jeffrey Sachs joins me to break down some of the most pressing geopolitical issues facing America today. Alongside that, we get into the failures of regime-change strategy, the myth of China’s “10-year collapse,” and what long-term planning actually looks like in a functional economy.

In this explosive conversation, Jay sits down with Andy Schectman to break down the biggest monetary shift happening beneath the surface of global finance. Schectman explains why the newly passed Genius Act and the rise of Treasury-backed stablecoins may be quietly restructuring the U.S. dollar system. They dig into gold’s explosive institutional demand, America’s pivot toward state capitalism, the government’s race for critical minerals, and the dangerous cracks emerging in the repo market that signal deep fragility across the banking system. https://x.com/MilesFranklinCo https://milesfranklin.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@MilesFranklinMedia Learn to invest alongside the top minds in commodities.

Jay is joined by geopolitical analyst and forecaster George Friedman to unpack what President Trump really represents in the long arc of American history. We revisit George’s “vanilla president” thesis and why, personality aside, Trump’s project to dismantle the post-1945 world order was predictable and perhaps inevitable. We dig into the shift from global policeman back toward U.S. isolationism, the real story behind Venezuela and the U.S. military build-up in the Caribbean, and why a renewed Russia–Cuba pact makes the Florida Straits one of the most important choke points on Earth.

In today’s episode, I sit down with Professor Richard Wolff for a raw, unscripted debate on capitalism, socialism, and the future of the American Dream. New York City’s election of a socialist mayor sets the stage, but the conversation quickly dives into the deeper forces splitting the country in two and the slow unraveling of a system that millions feel no longer works for them. We go back and forth on wealth, risk, entrepreneurship, worker power, and whether the U.S. is inching toward a historic transition far bigger than anyone realizes.

Today on the show, Jay sits down with geopolitical analyst Peter Zeihan for a sweeping conversation about the collapse of the global order. Zeihan explains why China is nearing its end, how demographics are set up to decimate economies around the world, and why the U.S. may soon abandon its role as world policeman and what that would mean for the world.

In this hard-hitting conversation, Jay sits down with Colonel Douglas Macgregor to dissect the unraveling of U.S. global dominance and the rise of a multipolar world. Macgregor argues that Washington’s addiction to military coercion, economic sanctions, and moral posturing has left America isolated and financially brittle, while China, Russia, and India quietly build alternative trade and monetary systems. He warns that U.S. diplomacy has been replaced by bullying and that the reckoning will come in the form of inflation, declining trust at home, and waning credibility abroad.

Canada’s economic bubble is starting to burst. Portfolio manager Danielle Park joins Jay Martin to unpack why Canadian housing is cracking, why boomers and millennials alike are overleveraged, and how investor psychology mirrors the final stages of every bubble. From soaring household debt and collapsing home equity to U.S. tech overconcentration and the “fragile decade” before retirement, this is a sobering look at what’s next for North American markets and how investors can protect themselves before the music stops.

In a world growing increasingly hostile, how can nations remain neutral? Geopolitical analyst Pascal Lottaz of Neutrality Studies joins Jay Martin to explore the strategic role of neutral states in today’s global power struggle. They discuss how nations like Mongolia, Georgia, and Canada navigate pressure from superpowers, why some countries act with impunity while others face punishment, and what the rise of multipolarity means for the future of trade, commodities, and conflict.

On this episode of The Jay Martin Show, macro strategist David Hunter returns to share his bold forecast for markets, the economy, and commodities. David outlines why he sees a final parabolic melt-up in equities before an 80% market crash, what he calls a “global bust” driven by unprecedented leverage and policy error, and how central banks will respond with trillions in stimulus—triggering a commodities supercycle into the 2030s. From state capitalism in the U.S. to the risk of a global financial system reset, this conversation covers the roadmap, the risks, and the opportunities ahead.
