In this episode, Mel O returns to the mic after a hiatus, re-energized to tackle what’s happening at the intersection of crypto and the traditional banking system—and why it matters to you, your wallet, and your kids’ futures.

We discusses S the latest political and economic moves shaking up the financial system, including a controversial Senate bill that could add trillions to the deficit and the looming impacts of rising tariffs and inflation.

The heart of this episode is all about crypto: how the collapse of banks like Silicon Valley Bank exposed vulnerabilities, why the integration of speculative digital assets into mainstream banking could spell big trouble, and how political super PACs fueled by crypto money are pushing for even looser regulations.

We discuss the real risk and what’s fearmongering, highlight how regulations are shifting, and explain what all this means for the 99%—especially as politicians from both parties take millions from crypto interests.

Catch Mel O Live on the Stationhead app @momentofmetal Wednesday at 6 AM Pacific Time.
