Episode Summary:

In this fourth installment of the Boycotting Central Banking series, Simon Dixon and Truth Teller delve deep into one of the most pressing global issues—how central banks fuel wars through debt and fiat currency, and how you can break free from this destructive cycle. This episode explores ways to “drain the war machine” by embracing decentralized alternatives like Bitcoin and other decentralized finance tools. With a sharp focus on historical precedents, financial inequality, and the future of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), this episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to achieve financial sovereignty and take control of their financial future.
