Summary

In the ninth episode of The Narrative Game, Epsilon Theory’s Dr. Ben Hunt returns to discuss the narrative aspects of the sudden surge in mainstream commentary around the drive towards de-dollarization on the part of China, Russia, Iran et al. Suffice to say, all is not what it might seem. Elsewhere, with the indictment of former President, Donald J. Trump filling the news cycle, Ben offers a few thoughts on the potential motives behind the headlines, who might stand to benefit and whether this particular strategy might pay off. Finally, we discuss the revolution that is ChatGPT and how AI may disrupt the workplace and Ben clues us in on the upcoming Epsilon Connect event in Nashville, TN when he, Rusty Guinn and a host of speakers (including Yours Truly) will bring the narrative world to life in living, breathing colour. Every episode of the Grant Williams podcast, including This Week In Doom, The End Game, The Super Terrific Happy Hour, The Narrative Game and Shifts Happen, is available to Copper, Silver and Gold Tier subscribers at my website www.Grant-Williams.com. Copper Tier subscribers get access to all podcasts, while members of the Silver Tier get both the podcasts and my monthly newsletter, Things That Make You Go Hmmm… Gold Tier subscribers have access to my new series of in-depth video conversations, About Time.

before putting a dime of your money into these crazy markets.

And now, on with the show.

Well, welcome everybody to a long overdue episode of The Narrative Game

0:40.7

and joining me and bringing all his knowledge on the subject in question is my dear friend,

0:46.6

the wonderful, the one and only Dr Ben Hunt-Ben. How are you, my friend?

0:50.5

Doing great grant, right back at you. Good to see you and you're right, long overdue.

0:56.2

Long overdue. Well, there's so, so much to talk about, as always.

0:59.6

And, you know, I sit back and watch with just so much admiration the way you do what you do

1:05.6

and the way you cover all the stuff that's happening. And every time I get a chance to sit down

1:10.9

and talk with you about it, I grab it with both hands because I always come away from these

1:14.8

conversations so much better informed and, you know, with so much to think about.

1:19.2

And I spend a lot of time thinking about this stuff as it is.

1:23.1

And damn it, if you don't send me back to the drawing board every time,

1:26.7

I kind of throw my rudimentary guesses about what's happening into the pot.

1:30.8

I mean, you slap them back at me and I wander away my tail between my legs, but so happy to have

1:35.2

so much more to think about. Well, the very generous I'd be grant. And it's again,

1:40.5

right back at you. Well, listen, the place I want to start this conversation with is a narrative
