COUNTDOWN TO PGMN’s ONE BILLIONTH VIEW!! Peanut Gallery Media Network is now 17 months old and is just days away from amassing a billion views across all platforms – a breathtaking rate of growth. It is now the fastest-growing media company in Southeast Asia. PGMN Achor Jourdan Sebastian turns his attention to how power holds itself together and where it begins to weaken under scrutiny. An original PGMN anchor, he brings a perspective shaped by filmmaking, spoken word, and years of working within creative and political spaces that demand both expression and accountability. In one of his most direct episodes, he broke down the scale of campaign spending in Philippine elections and traced how financial backing creates obligations that extend far beyond the vote. He introduced the idea of a “people’s fund,” where small, distributed contributions could reduce dependence on large private financiers and shift who politicians answer to once in office. The discussion centered on how influence is built and sustained, and what it would take to interrupt that cycle. His recent work moves across different institutions but stays grounded in the same concern. He examined political idolatry through the DPWH controversy by separating public perception from documented records, then turned to religious institutions to question how authority is affected when financial transparency remains limited. Each discussion returns to the same point, systems remain stable when they are left unchallenged. Away from the studio, his perspective is shaped by experience that extends beyond commentary. He is a multi-awarded international filmmaker and creative disruptor, and a survivor of Super Typhoon Yolanda in Tacloban, where he stayed to help rebuild without recognition. That experience continues to inform how he looks at failure, responsibility, and what people do when institutions fall short, forming part of the body of work that helped bring PGMN to this point. Seventeen months. One billion views. This is exactly what it looks like when real experts have sincere conversations and connect across platforms, in a variety of formats, to all sorts of human beings.

Would you bet EVERYTHING on one idea? Michael Saylor did. Michael is a technology entrepreneur and the founder of the company now called Strategy. Long before Bitcoin, he built businesses in business intelligence, speech recognition and smart-home technology. Today, he is probably best known for turning his company into the world’s largest corporate holder of Bitcoin. In 2020, his company was worth around $600 million when he made what I described to him as an “early, very contrarian bet on Bitcoin”. At its peak, the company reached roughly $125 billion. I wanted to understand what Michael saw that almost everyone else didn’t, where that level of conviction comes from, and why his thinking goes far beyond Bitcoin. We discussed things like: - How he says AI helped him create $15 billion last year. - Why he believes buying a house might not be the best way to build wealth. - What he would study if he was 18 today. - Which careers AI could completely transform. - What is happening to the value of the money sitting in your bank. - Why he still has such enormous conviction in Bitcoin. Michael’s whole point is that technology, money and careers are not separate conversations. He sees them as connected parts of where the world is heading, and believes the decisions we make now could matter far more than most people realise. Even if you see the world differently to Michael, there is a lot to take from the way he thinks. His experience building technology companies, making enormous financial bets and thinking deeply about AI gives him a perspective on money, work and the future that is worth listening to. Out now on all platforms. Let me know what you think of this one in the comments ❤️👊🏾

“Commercial real estate is the ultimate business bloodsport, the perfect lens through which to understand how money, power and cities work.” Today’s guest is Hiten Samtani 🗞️, the founder and editorial director of ten31, a new media company focused on market-moving insider coverage of the most important and least understood industries. He is the author of The Promote, a newsletter that readers have likened to commercial real estate's answer to Matt Levine's "Money Stuff," and a publication that has built the most highly engaged audience in B2B media (open rate: 70%). Hiten founded ten31 after a decade at The Real Deal, where he ran the newsroom and shepherded coverage of the most important stories in real estate. We get into the early days of the brand, what inspired it, and why the real estate world needed a publication that’s bold, sharp, and unapologetically honest. They talk about the stories that hit hardest, what makes for a good scoop, and how Hiten has built trust with sources while keeping the content unfiltered and highly readable. We also cover: - Why commercial real estate is full of big personalities and even bigger stakes - How operators and investors can actually get covered by the media - What it’s like growing a niche media company from scratch - Lessons from Hiten’s years at The Real Deal and why he walked away - Navigating the gray areas of journalism—anonymity, accuracy, and when to publish 5:33 - Hiten’s journey into real estate journalism 8:24 - Lesson from working at the Real Deal 12:39 - Who is the audience? 16:28 - Is your style of journalism unique to Real Estate? 19:40 - What it took to launch ten31 27:55 - Where do you get inspiration and how do you get access to the information you’re able to get? 35:32 - HFCs 39:03 - How do you determine what is the truth and what isn’t? 48:42 - How can CRE companies get press? 55:40 - On the record vs. Off the record 59:12 - CRE themes of 2024 and what to look for in 2025 01:04:19 - Attending a Jewish circumcision ceremony in a NYC Boardroom

What does the financial future of the world ACTUALLY look like for everyday people? Ray Dalio has spent more than 50 years studying how countries rise and fall, why economies break down and the patterns that shape the world long before most people notice them. Now, he believes the next five years could bring major disruption across debt, politics and geopolitics. Ray founded Bridgewater from a two-bedroom apartment and grew it into one of the most successful hedge funds in history. In 2008, while a major US stock index fell nearly 40%, Ray Dalio’s firm MADE 9.5%. I wanted to understand what someone with that perspective thinks people should actually be doing today to prepare for what comes next. We sat down and discussed: • Why he believes an AI bubble is forming. • What history teaches us about debt, power and the changing world order. • The biggest mistake people make when preparing for the future. • How he thinks about Gold, Bitcoin, property and protecting wealth in uncertain times. • Why AI could dramatically increase the wealth gap. • The principles that helped him build one of the most successful investment firms in history. Ray told me his purpose now is simply to help people understand the cause and effect behind money, markets, politics and how the world is changing. If you’re trying to make better decisions about your future, career, finances or simply how to think more clearly in an increasingly unpredictable world, I think you’ll get a huge amount from this conversation. Ray Dalio, out now on all platforms.❤️👊🏾

ON LIVE TELEVISION HE SAYS EVERY HOTEL COMPANY IN THE WORLD IS DONE. THE TRADE HE RAN ALONGSIDE THAT WARNING PAID OUT $2.6 BILLION. The man on the phone is Bill Ackman, who runs Pershing Square Capital. Three weeks earlier he had bought $27 million of insurance against a collapse nobody else was pricing. On March 18, 2020, he called the network to say the shutdown was inevitable. Then the anchor asked about Hilton, and Ackman told him what he was doing with his own money while he said it. 0:37 "I've been super bearish, but I got bullish. And the reason why I got bullish, I've been aggressively buying stocks, including Hilton today. And I've been buying all the way down." Buying all the way down. Four words from the man who had just explained why every hotel company on earth was about to die. Behind him on the board, Hilton is down 22 percent on the day and 38 percent on the week, the strap under his face reads RISK OF HILTON HOTEL GOING TO ZERO, and he gives the arithmetic anyway: no business survives 18 months with no revenue. Five days later he closed the insurance for $2.6 billion and put it to work in the stocks he had just buried: Hilton, Berkshire Hathaway, Starbucks, Lowe's. 1:00 "The only answer for the world is to shut the world for 30 days." In the clip he explains why the doom and the buying are the same decision, and the reason is not the one most people assume. People hear a billionaire predict the end of the world and assume he wanted it. The tape says otherwise: warning and buying, same read, same breath. Watch 0:42, where the man who just said every hotel company is done tells the anchor he bought Hilton today. Before you act on a forecast, find out what the forecaster owns. The only half of a prediction you can check is what it holds.
