I had a fascinating conversation with Hakeem Anwar. He’s a former Big Tech software engineer who walked away during COVID-19 after realizing he was literally helping build a digital prison through surveillance tools, remote work, and contact tracing. Now he runs Take Back Our Tech and Above Phone, creating de-Googled Linux phones, laptops, and private communication services so people can reclaim their privacy and independence. We talked about the disturbing rise of AI data centers that are sucking up more electricity than entire states, the push toward 15-minute cities, Digital Public Infrastructure, digital IDs, and how all of it is leading us toward a social-credit-style control system. Hakeem made it clear this isn’t about rejecting all technology — it’s about putting humans first, using local AI when it actually helps, getting involved at the community level to push back, and having backup plans so we’re not completely dependent on Big Tech or digital systems.
Well.. Silver is a Wagon.. and now you can have the shirt.
Fresh off the press — our new Silver is a Wagon t-shirt is here. It all started on the podcast during a conversation with Nikolas Morianos (Managing Partner at Silver Gold Bull). He dropped that perfect line: “Silver is a wagon right now.” Translation? Silver’s running hot, building real momentum, and the smart money is climbing aboard before it really starts moving. Whether you’re stacking physical silver, watching the charts, or just love calling the next leg higher in precious metals — this shirt says it all. Grab yours before the wagon picks up even more speed.
