The ACID Capitalist Podcast

Send us Fan Mail A Life in Rebellion You should listen to the Acid Capitalist Podcast. It's my raw and revealing true story. It's about rebellion. The quiet, existential battle against the grey, the dull, soul-crushing monotony that sneaks into the cracks of life. This isn’t just my story, it’s the story of the markets, a cosmic dance between chaos and order, failure and transcendence. T...

Send us Fan Mail I was born in Glasgow, a city carved by raw grit and humor, think of Sir Alex Ferguson and Billy Connolly. Not far from there, I began my career in Edinburgh , a mere fifty miles geographically, but an infinite leap in atmosphere. Imagine stepping into an aristocratic investment house, its rooms brimming with the ghosts of ambition and refinement. Suddenly finding yourself in the...

Send us Fan Mail Why Acid Meditation Matters for Investors: Embracing Complexity and the Chaos Within Dear friends I’m launching a meditation series that, I admit, may seem far afield from my usual punk-macroeconomic analysis. But this is no gimmick. It’s an exploration of how mastering the inner world of your mind can make you a better investor and a more resilient human being. Why It’s Worth You...

Send us Fan Mail Mike Lynch, a man who faced down the giant of  US Justice, out maneuvered the legal behemoths, took on the law and emerged victorious—only to be taken by the cold, capricious hand of Mother Nature. Imagine it: overcoming insurmountable odds, the weight of the world against you, and yet, you rise. Then, in a cruel twist, you're snuffed out by the very seas that should’ve carri...

Send us Fan Mail Step into the dim glow of our dive bar of financial musings in the humid, Caribbean night air, where the ACID Capitalist, Hugh Hendry, the sardonic Brent Johnson (@SantiagoAuFund), and the ever-perceptive Tracy Shuchart (@chigrl) huddle over a table of half-empty glasses and half-baked theories. This is a raw, unfiltered exploration into the underbelly of macroeconomics.  We wande...

Send us Fan Mail Some folks possess the philosophers stone. Me? I just have this fabulous oversized sofa at Maison Blanc Bleu, and as this glorious weekend unfolds, I'm rolling out my life creed.  Journeys morph and twist.

Send us Fan Mail Switching it up with a throwback from the archives. About a year ago, I had a series of 3 interviews with Denise Shull.

Denise even took a swing at the show's creators, claiming they owed her royalties for using her likeness in Wen...
