The King welcomes James Pethokoukis to discuss his new book, The Conservative Futurist: How to Create the Sci-Fi World We Were Promised . America used to be a land of big dreams and bigger accomplishments. But as we moved into the late 20th century, we grew cautious, even cynical, about the future and our ability to shape it. Too many of us saw only the threats from rapid change and not the many benefits. James argues we can turn things around—if we, the people, choose to dream and act. Jim is a senior fellow and the DeWitt Wallace Chair at the American Enterprise Institute, writing on their website and in his " Faster, Please !" Substack newsletter. You'll also see him regularly on CNBC and elsewhere. After the interview, Jon shares a few thoughts about Thanksgiving. Subscribe to the King of Stuff Spotify playlist featuring picks from the show.

Host of the popular Liz Wheeler Show , she distills the most complex issues of the day and exposes the Left’s murky motives, Liz looks beyond policy to find solutions to our underlying problems. Previously, she graduated high school at 16, earned a degree in Political Science and Homeland Security at Penn State, and hosted "Tipping Point with Liz Wheeler" on OAN for five years.

The King of Stuff welcomes Carol Roth to talk about her new book, You Will Own Nothing: Your War with a New Financial World Order and How to Fight Back . Carol is a “recovering” investment banker, an entrepreneur, a TV pundit and host, and a New York Times bestselling author. More importantly, a third-time guest on the King of Stuff! When she first heard that one of the World Economic Forum’s predictions for 2030 was “You will own nothing, and be happy,” she thought it was an outlandish fantasy. Then, she researched it. What she found was that a number of businesses, governments, and global elites share a vision of a future that sounds utopian: Everyone will have everything they need, and no one will own anything. In You Will Own Nothing¸ Roth reveals how the agendas of Wall Street, world governments, international organizations, socialist activists, and multinational corporations like Blackrock all work together to reduce the power of the dollar and prevent millions of Americans from taking control of their wealth.
