Richard Werner joins me to explore the hidden history of the U.S. dollar, the origins of tally sticks as early money, and how interest rates, central planning, and price fixing distort real economic growth. We discuss the rise of central banks as banking cartels, the history of Viking influence on European civilization, and the creation of the petrodollar.

Richard Andreas Werner is a German banking and development economist who is a university professor at University of Winchester.
